Don't know about cool - but as Granny's go... well, I'm definitely different from the norm!
* Granny Granny! Cuz I spend lot's of time lovin' our grandkids. They LOVE coming to Gramma and Grampas. The farm life is definitely for every one of them and we have lots of fun things for them to do outside when the weather allows.
* Gun slingin' Granny! Up until a few years ago I deer and pheasant hunted with all my guys and our extended family "hunting" group, and I trained our bird dogs... (miss my best girl!)
* Biker Granny! I ride my own motorcycle as many in our family do (male and female), and we even make sure the grandkids get an early start on the farm with a small chopper and a pocket rocket (as soon as they can ride their bicycles without training wheels we start em'!) Love to ride the mountains and see the magnificant beauty of our country. Love my bike.
* Nurse Granny... cuz I used to be an RN and it will always be with me.
* And... Granny 420!!! Right up there with the best of the best of my life! Love my smoke - it keeps me sane!!!
Yep... a bit different!
Hey Butcher honey! THANK YOU!!! I am SOOO happy!!! They are stretchin' like crazy. I had to up the light when I got home yesterday. The veg room babes are filling out nicely too... a few weeks and my flower room will finally need 2 lights!
Oh... but I'm sorry to report that the males are all gone now. I'd have loved to have pollinated, Butcher... but I had no where else to go with them. I thought about trying the brown bag method that I read about here (where ya strip the plant of everything below the top 6" ACCEPT the fan leaves, then wrap the top with bag/plastic window)... but... I thought about a number of things...
First, I made a promise to my hubby that I would grow only through the end of March. If I had a ton of seeds, I absolutely KNOW I would have a strong urge to grow somehow along the way. Also... when thinking about what I would pollinate, and having this many strains... well, I wanted to pollinate so many pure AND crosses that I'd have WAY overdone!
Tis enough to have the ladies going... and the last thing I needed would be accidental pollination, so the known boys are gone. :-( Sorry, wish I could have given em' to you!!! I agree with whoever said that the males are always the biggest and best looking plants - yes they were. But my ladies are sure lookin' FANTASTIC!!!
Someone asked for pics... I put some up the day I went to flower (couple pages back) and I will update with pics on Friday (day off). Have no clue how tall they'll be then - but definitely you'll see a difference from the stretch! Still doin' my happy dance
and probably will be thru the end of March!!!Take care everyone!!! Bless yer hearts!!!
Hey all that matters is that granny is happy!!! your on point with everything.+reps granny
i doubt you will be able to give it up that easy after you get a taste.
in time your stash will run low and you will have the urge once again. it would be nice to not have to spend on seeds again when that time came.
I have "quit" growing multiple times, but then i run out of weed. . . and after a couple months paying for a 1-2 gram/day habit I start breaking out the equipment. lol. good luck granny, but you started down a road that doesn't like to end. lol.

((((((((((BIG GRANNY HUGS TO EVERYONE))))))))))
Every one of you are SO WONDERFUL!!!!!! Your support just means so very much to me! Being able to share this wonderful journey with others... words just can't express the gratitude for what I find here.
Wheel... yes, the urge is going to be there and it will be very hard to resist especially after having this experience. The urge has been here for DECADES. No matter how bad I will want to, I won't be able to grow again unless there are changes (with hubby consenting OR area changes) - then LOOK OUT cuz I'll be back!!! For now, this grow will make me and my loved ones happy for quite some time.
Okay, it is time for a pictorial update... prepare yourself cuz I got em all out today for their mug shots! Uploading... uploading... uploading... Still uploading more, but will multitask.
Guess I'll start with the ladies in the flower room. And I'll begin with the indica dominant...
When I put this Blueberry into the flower room, I thought it was probably a male just cuz it was tall. But she is definitely my first Lady Blueberry. In 5 days she has gone from 10" tall to 14" tall.
She has some sprouts at the bottom I will let grow for clones. And a view from the top... not as impressive as we will get to, but she is fine oh fine to me!
Next, there are two Medijuana ladies in flower. M1 and M10. Very indica plants here. Of course, the 3 males were filled out the most, but these ladies are looking wonderful!!!
Pictured below is M10. When I transplanted, I accidentally ripped the soil roots from the rockwool. This plant was small, but nice when I did that and it lost everyone of it's leaves before starting to grow again. I did not LST this plant and it was the shortest going into flower. I kindda want to see what a SOG of Medijuana might yield. M10 was 9" tall and has grown to 12" tall in 5 days of flower...
M10 has the main cola and then a number of secondary colas (pictured below). And some growth at the bottom that I will let grow a bit for clones.
Second in the Medijuana ladies is M1, which I did LST. However, the Medijuana really didn't seem to fill out like other strains in reaction to the LST. The indica of these plants makes them totally different to work with. This strain is also said to be a single cola plant, so watching the difference in these will be interesting. M1 was 10" tall when flower began and has grown to an impressive 15" in 5 days.
and M1 from the top...
I do definitely have more colas on the LST'd Medijuana, but it was also an inch taller when put to flower.
Next, let's move to the G13 Haze. She was 10" tall when put to flower and has only grown 2" in this first 5 days, but she has many budsites and is growing thick inside.
I am SO glad she showed me her pistels! Below, you can see she has many budsites in the top view...
Okay... now on to the lone LD lady, a Barney's Farm special breed. Gosh this plant smells SO GOOD. Scratch n Sniff!!! YES!!! Let's invent it! lol!!! Anyways... LD3 grew from 10" tall to 14" tall in 5 days of flowering...
and she has a pretty real nice top view...
On to the Thai Tanic... she began flowering at 11" tall and is now 15"...
with a nice top view...
And that leads us to the three White Widow ladies... these are going to be monsters before they are done! And they are definitely ahead of the rest in preparing to set flowers out.
White Widow 2 was 12.5" tall and has grown to 18" in 5 days of flowering. In this image I left the support rings at where it was last week, but since then I have adjusted the rings on all plants to a lower level to allow the inner growth to receive more light.
and then a top view... this plant has at least 9 top budsights of the same height and a number more of shorter colas...
and White Widow 3 has grown from 11" to 16" in the first 5 days of flowering...
and many budsites from the top...
The last of the 9 flowering ladies is White Widow 4. WW4 grew from 11" to 16" in these first 5 days of flowering...
and a top view of WW4...
I switched to flowering ferts for the ladies. Hmmm... I think it is Big Bloom... would have to look for sure.
One last pic of the flowering ladies as they smile for a group shot!
What BEAUTY to BEHOLD!
On to... THE VEG ROOM
I'm a bit overdue on catching up on pics of whats going on in the veg room, but it's all here today! GROUP shots now tho when possible!
I expect to be moving a lot of plants from the veg room to the flower room in the next 1 to 3 weeks. I will finally need the second 1000w light in the flower room then!
We'll begin with the 2 Blueberry (sex unknown) that remain from my first seedlings that suffered in the beginning. One recovered pretty nicely and the other never did do well and I'm done messing with it now. These are released from all LST and are around 9" tall. They will be grown to 11" to 12" tall and then put to flower.
Then there are the three feminized Cheese ladies. The shortest pictured below was the one I accidentally topped last week. I'm just going to let it grow. All have been released from all LST and are now free to grow up so I can put them to flower. They range in height from 7" to 9".
and from the top, you can see the LST results (accept on the one I beheaded!)
And I can't go much farther without reintroducing everyone to the Super Nova Chronic group. After a stressful time, many have made a recovery and it is time we will move on with them. They are in three different stages...
The first two SN Chronic are released from all LST and we are just waiting for them to grow so they can be moved to the flower room. SN10 and SN7 range from 7" to 9" in height...
SN2, SN4, and SN6 are still undergoing LST...
SN1 and SN3 are not going to be LST'd They were the slowest to recover and I'm simply going to grow them upward until they are the right height to flower. It is time I move on with them so I can find the best females to clone...
So the entire Super Nova Chronic group looks like this...
Let's see... we also still have the last Utopia Haze chance for a girl (only had 2 seedlings of this strain). This plant is still undergoing LST. There is good undergrowth to build up and I want a pretty full plant in case it's a female. (Oh Great MJ Goddess, hear my prayer!) I am getting closer to releasing this one...
I think that leads me to the second set of seedlings that I planted...
The 4 Thai Tanic are growing fine. One was smaller than the rest, it had a soil problem where the soil settled and wasn't quite covering it's lower stem/roots area. I fixed that now, but it was set back. I'm going to just let that one grow as is. The other 3 are filling out nicely from the LST I have them under...
And there are the two feminized LD ladies that are vegging and undergoing LST... (they also smell as strong as the first LD did!)
And last of the second set of seedlings is the AK-47 - a fine growing plant! All four AK-47 are being LST'd, but are begging for release pretty soon.
And you would think that was it - but NO!!! I have begun cloning...
THE CLONES
I accidentally topped one of the Cheese ladies and ended up with 3 very small clones. So, I figured it was time to get my feet wet with cloning. And although I have read a ton of different cloning methods, I opted to just do what I know - what I've done when working with the ton of flowers and herbs I have grown. Soil in cups (water holes in bottom of cups), took cuttings, kept in water til dip in rooting powder and planted in pre-watered soil, placed 3 cups in each ice cream container, covered with plastic to form a humidity dome, and set in a shady area (not full light).
The only time I have had any droopiness was initially when the first were cloned. This was only cuz I wasn't prepared. I tore the top off the plant and had no water to place it in. Here were 2 of them just after potting on the first day... Then I put the plastic on the top of the bucket and within an hour they perked up.
Cloned feminized Cheese 10/7/09
Yesterday I noticed the big fan leaves were yellowing on these clones. I have had them in ice cream buckets with plastic over the top of them, creating a continuous humidity dome since cloning. But I was reading thru someone's journal yesterday and learned I need to harden them. So, I opened them up last night for awhile and today, they are open and doing fine.
and here they are today...
But I didn't stop there, I also cloned White Widow, LD, and Thai Tanic on Oct 10th when I was positive of their female sex. I thought that a number would die while I experimented... but they all seem to be doing real good so far.... I may have a ton more plants that I don't have room for - but it is sure better to have to choose from the best instead of having unutilized space!!!
I let the top off all of them last night for about 45 minutes, then I noticed a taller one that was drooping at the top, so I put the dome lid (plastic) back on. This morning I let the top off all except that one container and they have done real good - no drooping at all and still uncovered. If they do well tonight, I'll place them closer to the light tomorrow and see how they do.
Here's pics of the rest of the clone babies...
3 Thai Tanic Clones started 10/10/09 (picture taken today 10/16)
6 White Widow clones started 10/10/09 (picture taken today 10/16)
And the 6 LD clones started 10/10/09 (picture taken today 10/16)
THAT's IT!!!! Unless I forgot a babe or two!!! After all that, I need to get outta here so I can go do some watering! This is sure a lot to keep up with!!! BUT BRING IT ON!!!!

Very nice granny. They all look fantastic. You have your hands full!!
The yellowing clones is actually a good sign. In my soil cloning experience this occurred right before they produced roots. Like they pull energy in from those leaves to get the job done. Give a few more days and give a light tug on those guys and there should be a little resistance. Thats the roots digging in. 
so many pics, man you are doing a great job granny.
Hey granny What a show off you are
I don't blame you, you sure have reason to show off
Old girl I can just feel the energy coming from you and it is infectious.
I just get happier every time I visit you.
I don't know if I could keep track of it all the way you do.
The pics are great. Every one of those girls are feeling it now. It's amazing to watch them jump inches over night. Wheel is right. When you are finally finished and have nothing to do but watch the aging of your mountain of buds. It's gonna be real hard to resist doing it again.
I'm not even finished with my first grow and I'm having all sorts of fantasy's about the next one or two.
By the way, you might write a note somewhere. You could call it "Clones, Granny's Easy Way"
We all love you girl.

WOW what a wonderful garden! Your really doing great and those strains! I wish my granny smoked! You should become a caregiver so you can keep growing. You obviously have a knack for this.
Jumping frijoles! Those plants really like you too, its like they know they are in good loving hands. Your joy radiates and gets absorbed by everything that surrounds you. Get your grow on granny!

((((((((((BIG GREEN GRANNY HUGS TO EVERY ONE!!!))))))))))
I am so sorry I don't have time to reply to each of you!!! I hope to catch up in the next few days when at work. It has been chaotic here between work, watchin' the grandkids on the weekends, and MY BABIES!
I had a very busy day, starting with the plants surprising me with their fast growth! I wasn't prepared to be transplanting today. I ran around this morning picking up supplies and 8 more huge bags of WET soil to have to huff and puff up those dang stairs! I SHOULD be in good shape by now with all my trips up and down those stairs with watering!!! I was sure sweatin'!!!
Now, I only have a little time before bath and din din... So, I'll try to make this fairly fast.
I'll start with the bad news... the last Utopia Haze is a male. So I will not be growing any of this strain. I will have 9 strains total.
But the good news far outweighs the bad BY FAR!!! EGADS!!!!!!! NEW LADIES ARE SHOWING UP LIKE CRAZY!!!
SUPER NOVA CHRONIC: - 7 PLANTS - 7 FEMALES!!!! Some folks wouldda thrown these sad little pups out and started over. Not granny, I babied them and loved them, and looked at them awful disappointed, but hopeful, for a time... but the MJ Goddess saw how much love I gave them and she smiled down on me with them!!! I saw hair on EVERY one of them - so I am positive. I evened looked at them all THREE times now... still hairy pistels. ALL GIRLS!!! And this is such a strong strain and one I wanted real bad!!! I have read reviews of 25% to 30%, but don't know how much I believe them. THANK YOU MJ GODDESS!!!
Of the AK-47... 4 PLANTS - 2 FEMALE, 1 MALE, 1 QUAD TOP UNKNOWN (but I think it's female!) The quad node growth started on the last plant when I over-stressed the stem in one area... when it recovered, everything above the stress point has four branches coming out each node!
I have 7 plants that are unsexed: 4 Thai Tanic and 1 AK-47 in the veg room, and 2 Blueberry that I put to flower today...
So.... the female/male tally is currently:
9 females put to flower 10/11
6 females (plus 2 unknown sex) put to flower today, 10/19
8 females still vegging (have been sexed - will go to flower in next week)
25 positive females plus 2 unknown in flower and 5 unknown vegging.
The above will all be in flower within the next week or so. OH MY!!!!!!!!!! Needless to say, it has been VERY busy here of late trying to keep up and keep them all healthy!!!
I didn't expect to be transplanting today, but the Blueberry were 12" and many others were 9" to 11". Since the White Widow are getting way way tall after being vegged to 12", I decided to go a little shorter on going to flower with the group I transplanted today. I don't have another day off until Friday and they are growing very quickly, so today was the day for some. The shorter ones I put to flower today are still partially bent over from LST, so they are decievingly short.
TRANSPLANTED TODAY
Here are the plants I put to flower today... Pics were taken before transplanting.
First is the two Super Nova Chronic females to go to flower - 2 plants.
Then, the first two female AK-47 to go to flower...
Then a feminized Cheese gal and a feminized LD gal...
Then the two unknown sex Blueberry...
NOT Transplanted today are the two suspected males, Utopia Haze and the biggest AK-47...
So now, I have the second 1000w light going. I rearranged, so here are the 13 plants (11 known females) under one light...
And here are the White Widow and Thai Tanic under the other light - tall gals and still stretching...
Oh - and I cloned some more yesterday: Medijuana, Blueberry, and G13 Haze.
For now... I am so sorry that is all I have time for. I am running behind today! I hope to get back in here tomorrow in the slow time of the morning at work.
MY GOODNESS - 25 females FOR SURE!!!
That's a whole lot of Granny Happy Dances!!!

Well, I had brain farts goin' on today. I got up at 5:30am, got ready for work, did what I needed to for all babies, got to work by 7:45, and was counting out the cash drawer... when a staff showed up for work. Duh moment. I was on the schedule for today, but she had asked to trade a day with me, and I forgot to change my copy of the schedule. So I wasn't supposed to be at work today! Egads... granny is too ol' to remember when she has to work!!!
So, that gives me a bit of time to come in here and catch up with all of you!
Thanks Butcher honey! Don't know if I'm on point, but it's getting busier here! Have no idea what harvest time (which will be continuous for a few months) will be like - EEK!!!! But it's all good.
Hey Wheel!!! Thank you honey! I just love your spin method too (sure fills your plants out!) - learning lot's from you! As for stopping... it is going to be even harder after this than it was for the last 40 years. All I can do is *hope* that there will be changes that allow me to in the future. But I will look on the bright side: with the size of this grow, granny should be happy for quite some time!
(((((Granny hugs for SouthernOnt))))) I am SO glad you are workin' to get some indoors plants going! Gees, I had my eye on that huge White Widow you had goin' outside... I am still peeved for you at what happened!!! But kudos to you for dustin' yerself off and gettin' back in the grow!!! Northern Lights - nice selection!!! I'll be rootin' for ya and watchin the show!
Weed honey!!! Love you and the lil misses too!!!!
Okay, we need to give her a nickname... Mrs Weed? Mrs The? 
Ms TW, or DILLIGAF? What's the lil misses think???
Now that I thought of it, that's what I should have chosen for a name!!! DILLAGAF!!! I kept seeing this saying on pins every year when we'd go to the Sturgis (Black Hills) biker rally. I kept wondering what it meant. I finally broke down and asked this big dark fella who was selling them at a vendor stand. I innocently asked, "What does DILLAGAF mean?" He looked at me with an angry look and barked loudly, "Do I look like I give a f***? Now, I have my own DILLAGAF pin and I have had a ton of fun with it.
I got it instantly - but not everyone does! Often it takes ppl two times, but I had one guy that beat everyone elses record. He was admiring all the pins on my vest and he asked me what DILLAGAF meant. I always do just as that big vendor did to me. This guy didn't get it and asked again, thinking he had offended me somehow. The second time, I responded even gruffer. He still didn't get it and each time he was trying harder to make me understand he didn't mean to offend me by asking. This guy didn't get it four times in a row so I finally spelled it out to him... THAT is what it means: Do I Look Like I Give A F***
Okay... not probably good "granny" stuff to share - but I LOVE my DILLAGAF pin!!!
Hey Odorous, thanks for visiting honey!!! I just left a message at yer journal about pre-flowers - hope it helps!
Hey OldSkoool
honey!!! So good to see you! I love the idea of Scratch'nSniff!!! Let's patent it for our flavor(s)!!! I been wanting to get to your journal for a time now (thanks for the addy OMM!), so here I go... bye!
...
OldSkoool! I bet that DIY light box is light weight and works like a charm!!! I made a request while I was there. Beats the heck outta the mess of plugins I got going on!
As for the female count, it recently went up - but I made an error and didn't know how to do simple addition in my previous message... the total is 23 females going to flower in Oct plus 7 still unsexed at this point. But HIP HIP HOORAY OVER AND OVER!!!
Hey Scooby_Snacks!!! honey! And thank you very much for your kind words. You are SOOOOO RIGHT about my having my hands full!!! EEK!!! Hope I can keep up!
(((((Granny hugs McBudz))))) Wonderful to see you sweetie!!! Thank you! It's good to know thats a sign of roots diggin' in. I haven't done any tuggin' (probably pull their lil heads off!) but figure if they are looking good and growing good then they are rooting. So far, so good. Gosh I hope I get some colas that look like yours have!!!! I do SOOO drool over your grows!!!
(((((Big hugs OMM!!!))))) Oh I hope I'm not showing off. I hate that in people. There are a lot of plants to report on, so I *hope* I'm just doin' a good job on journalling... But I know yer teasin' anyway - and luvs you too!!!!!!!! Besides, I have to show off while I can cuz after that I'll be limited to watchin' what all of you do with yer future grows! My mind and heart know that I will NOT be able to grow again anytime in my foreseeable future. That's why I'm trying to make the most of this one chance.
As for you (and MANY others)... I chuckle when reading lots of journals cuz it often starts out in ONE small area and before ya know it, there are TWO areas... and then bigger lights and bigger areas... all the while thinking
woah dude, how did this happen? That's okay - cuz granny will be watchin and hopin ya all rock on
and give me something to drool over as I smoke my century ol' weed! 
Hey WarBux79! How ya doin'? Thank you so much for yer kind comments! Have ya called yer granny lately??? My journal seems to spark this in ppl and I LOVE it! It puts a smile on my face to think that grannys everywhere are having happy visits cuz of it!
Hey Bux - yer LED is pretty cool! I'm gonna tune in - gotcha subscribed so I can watch the show! There are lot's of members wondering how the LEDs do for growing - cool!
Hey Siscokid!!!! ((((((((((((BIG HUGS!!!!)))))))))))))) Luv lookin' at Barney watchin over yer scrog!! Isn't all that beautiful snow on those colas just gorgeous!!! I'm sure lookin forward to a smoke review from you on these flavors - gees they look real real real nice. I think the ladies love you too!
Blacky! Thank you, honey! I see you have taken the plunge yourself! I'm gonna stay tuned for your show and wish you green thumbs! But if you looked at the beginning of my journey, you will see you can do a lot wrong and those plants seem to survive despite you! But you'll also get a lot of help from others with experience. My best advice is to HEED WHAT THEY SAY! Good luck honey! It's gonna be a wonderful journey!
That's it for catchin' up with my 420 family!

So, that gives me a bit of time to come in here and catch up with all of you!
Thanks Butcher honey! Don't know if I'm on point, but it's getting busier here! Have no idea what harvest time (which will be continuous for a few months) will be like - EEK!!!! But it's all good.
Hey Wheel!!! Thank you honey! I just love your spin method too (sure fills your plants out!) - learning lot's from you! As for stopping... it is going to be even harder after this than it was for the last 40 years. All I can do is *hope* that there will be changes that allow me to in the future. But I will look on the bright side: with the size of this grow, granny should be happy for quite some time!
(((((Granny hugs for SouthernOnt))))) I am SO glad you are workin' to get some indoors plants going! Gees, I had my eye on that huge White Widow you had goin' outside... I am still peeved for you at what happened!!! But kudos to you for dustin' yerself off and gettin' back in the grow!!! Northern Lights - nice selection!!! I'll be rootin' for ya
and watchin the show!Granny gun slinger, nurse, biker, grower girl... We love you!
Weed honey!!! Love you and the lil misses too!!!!
Okay, we need to give her a nickname... Mrs Weed? Mrs The? Ms TW, or DILLIGAF? What's the lil misses think???Now that I thought of it, that's what I should have chosen for a name!!! DILLAGAF!!! I kept seeing this saying on pins every year when we'd go to the Sturgis (Black Hills) biker rally. I kept wondering what it meant. I finally broke down and asked this big dark fella who was selling them at a vendor stand. I innocently asked, "What does DILLAGAF mean?" He looked at me with an angry look and barked loudly, "Do I look like I give a f***? Now, I have my own DILLAGAF pin and I have had a ton of fun with it.
I got it instantly - but not everyone does! Often it takes ppl two times, but I had one guy that beat everyone elses record. He was admiring all the pins on my vest and he asked me what DILLAGAF meant. I always do just as that big vendor did to me. This guy didn't get it and asked again, thinking he had offended me somehow. The second time, I responded even gruffer. He still didn't get it and each time he was trying harder to make me understand he didn't mean to offend me by asking. This guy didn't get it four times in a row so I finally spelled it out to him... THAT is what it means: Do I Look Like I Give A F***
Okay... not probably good "granny" stuff to share - but I LOVE my DILLAGAF pin!!!
Hey Odorous, thanks for visiting honey!!! I just left a message at yer journal about pre-flowers - hope it helps!
Hey OldSkoool
honey!!! So good to see you! I love the idea of Scratch'nSniff!!! Let's patent it for our flavor(s)!!! I been wanting to get to your journal for a time now (thanks for the addy OMM!), so here I go... bye! ...
OldSkoool! I bet that DIY light box is light weight and works like a charm!!! I made a request while I was there. Beats the heck outta the mess of plugins I got going on!As for the female count, it recently went up - but I made an error and didn't know how to do simple addition in my previous message... the total is 23 females going to flower in Oct plus 7 still unsexed at this point. But HIP HIP HOORAY OVER AND OVER!!!
Hey Scooby_Snacks!!!
honey! And thank you very much for your kind words. You are SOOOOO RIGHT about my having my hands full!!! EEK!!! Hope I can keep up!The yellowing clones is actually a good sign. In my soil cloning experience this occurred right before they produced roots. Like they pull energy in from those leaves to get the job done. Give a few more days and give a light tug on those guys and there should be a little resistance. Thats the roots digging in.
(((((Granny hugs McBudz))))) Wonderful to see you sweetie!!! Thank you! It's good to know thats a sign of roots diggin' in. I haven't done any tuggin' (probably pull their lil heads off!) but figure if they are looking good and growing good then they are rooting. So far, so good. Gosh I hope I get some colas that look like yours have!!!! I do SOOO drool over your grows!!!
Hey granny What a show off you are
I don't blame you, you sure have reason to show off
Old girl I can just feel the energy coming from you and it is infectious.
I just get happier every time I visit you.
I don't know if I could keep track of it all the way you do.
The pics are great. Every one of those girls are feeling it now. It's amazing to watch them jump inches over night. Wheel is right. When you are finally finished and have nothing to do but watch the aging of your mountain of buds. It's gonna be real hard to resist doing it again.
I'm not even finished with my first grow and I'm having all sorts of fantasy's about the next one or two.
By the way, you might write a note somewhere. You could call it "Clones, Granny's Easy Way"
We all love you girl.
(((((Big hugs OMM!!!))))) Oh I hope I'm not showing off. I hate that in people. There are a lot of plants to report on, so I *hope* I'm just doin' a good job on journalling... But I know yer teasin' anyway - and luvs you too!!!!!!!! Besides, I have to show off while I can cuz after that I'll be limited to watchin' what all of you do with yer future grows! My mind and heart know that I will NOT be able to grow again anytime in my foreseeable future. That's why I'm trying to make the most of this one chance.
As for you (and MANY others)... I chuckle when reading lots of journals cuz it often starts out in ONE small area and before ya know it, there are TWO areas... and then bigger lights and bigger areas... all the while thinking
woah dude, how did this happen? That's okay - cuz granny will be watchin and hopin ya all rock on
and give me something to drool over as I smoke my century ol' weed! Hey WarBux79!
How ya doin'? Thank you so much for yer kind comments! Have ya called yer granny lately??? My journal seems to spark this in ppl and I LOVE it! It puts a smile on my face to think that grannys everywhere are having happy visits cuz of it! Hey Bux - yer LED is pretty cool! I'm gonna tune in - gotcha subscribed so I can watch the show!
There are lot's of members wondering how the LEDs do for growing - cool!
Hey Siscokid!!!! ((((((((((((BIG HUGS!!!!)))))))))))))) Luv lookin' at Barney watchin over yer scrog!! Isn't all that beautiful snow on those colas just gorgeous!!! I'm sure lookin forward to a smoke review from you on these flavors - gees they look real real real nice. I think the ladies love you too!
Blacky! Thank you, honey! I see you have taken the plunge yourself! I'm gonna stay tuned for your show and wish you green thumbs! But if you looked at the beginning of my journey, you will see you can do a lot wrong and those plants seem to survive despite you! But you'll also get a lot of help from others with experience. My best advice is to HEED WHAT THEY SAY! Good luck honey! It's gonna be a wonderful journey!That's it for catchin' up with my 420 family!
