I feel your pain granny, I put allot of thought into my second grow intro and I guess I was typing too long cuzz my ass got booted off to the sign in page!
I said screw it and posted a fast half *** one that is on today.

Good to hear that your feeling better :ganjamon: That chicken soup was made with all organic herbs handed down from my Aztec ancestors. ;>()
 
Then a bottom view of a fan leaf where you can see the outline of the trichs clear out on this large fan leaf...

Looks like that blizzard finally hit your place Granny!

Now hide all your sharp instruments! The temptation is going to be strong with this grow:slide:

:goodjob:
 
looking great granny!! looks like I stand corrected on the dimensions. looks like you and others are having great success with the larger area. You have a gift for sure. those plants look great.
 
That blueberry looks delicious, but the Medijuana made my jaw drop! Is it a pure indica strain?

It's been wonderful to watch your grow - I can always tell a real gardener! All the flowers in your life are very lucky. :peace:
 
:kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss:Love To Everyone!!!:kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss:

Oh my... the support from everyone is SOOOOOO .... humbling. ?Is that a word? I can't even catch up on individual responses cuz you folks just keep supporting me!!! I am so very very very grateful for each and every one of you - MY 420 FAMILY!!!! I thought my journey with this grow would be lonesome cuz I can't share it with anyone here... but you all... you bring tears of joy to my eyes. I can't thank you enough for sharing what I feel is one of the most amazing accomplishments of my entire life. Thank you. I cherish each one of you!!!!

Let's see... I'd like to thank everyone who offered help about the red stems. I wasn't overly concerned cuz the plants looked healthy, but your answers relieved me of any further worry. Yes, McBudz, the temp did dip down to 60F ONE night and that may have had something to do with it.

Then, the hermie. It was the AK-47 that I had OVER-stressed when doing LST and then it grew 4 leaves (instead of 2) at every node. I was tickled it was a female cuz I had dreams of lots of top colas. However, I had decided not to for the same reasons I didn't pollinate when I sorted males and am very glad I did. When I cut a stem from the top, the stem was hollow - I cut more, same thing. Not normal at all. It was probably caused by the stress, but this still was not a plant to pollinate from.

Well I wanted to write more, but it has taken me 3 hours to get this written cuz clients keep comin' in... so I'm gonna FIRST COPY THIS so that when it makes me check back in I will have my message to paste in today!!!!

AGAIN - Love and thanks to all my 420 family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

((((obx)))) It is so good to see you! I am so honored to have so many growers that I consider experts come visit me and leave such wonderful comments. Yes, the Medijuana is from amsterdammarijuanaseeds.com and is listed as mostly indica. Here's what they say...
Medijuana 100% all natural pain relief.

The most powerful medical marijuana seed strain world wide.

This overwhelming indica has several fine qualities, making her very popular among medical marijuana users. Because of the high percentage of THC and the narcotic effect this strain is highly reccomended as a medicinal herb. The flowers are covered with sweet sticky resin and spread an stunning odor. The plants grow fast and makes many branches with golf-ball-like, rock hard buds. Medijuana is excellent for scrog-growing a.k.a. screen of green.

Medijuana - Powered by Mother Nature

Warning: This weed can be too heavy for starting smokers!

50 gallon drum of Chicken soup is being over-nighted to your co-ordinates. Take care and drink plenty of warm fluids.

I hate to say it Granny, but Mother Nature is telling you to take a break!
Listen to her, she just wants you to recharge for a bit.:grinjoint:

Do only the minimum that your girls need. They will be fine. These plants know how to survive. ;)

As far as all of us that are tuned in to your great grow. We can wait.

We'll be here hoping the best for you. Most of us are growing something so we can be very patient.:smokin:

Lots of LOVE from us all.:kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss::kiss:[/QUOTE]

:hugs::hugs::hugs:OMM:hugs::hugs::hugs: And if the barrel of soup didn't do it - THIS DID!!!!!

You all are soooooooooo..... WONDERFUL!!!!!! LOVIES TO YOU BOTH!!!!
 
@CocoJoe Thank you, ((((cocoJoe honey!)))) So good to see you!

:adore:Tunes420, :adore:MI-Grower, :adore:PitViper, :adore:WOF - I am so very very humbled to have such superb growers supporting me... I am in awe of your grows, so it is just such an honor to read such ... wonderful ... comments from you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I can't even express properly in words what respect I have for so many that are visiting. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

:hugs::hugs::hugs:blacken honey!!!:hugs::hugs::hugs: I really love the fat buds on the Thai Tanic too. I have such wonderful memories of Thai from many many many moons ago (only had it once). The high had serious hard core smokers laughing with silliness. Maybe my hopes are stuck in the past, but the taste was chocolatey and unique and the high was a superb head buzz - so I'm hopin' this one fullfills those past memories!

Someone asked what strain is my favorite... I just don't know!!! Each has it's own unique qualities and none have gotten to show me their total selves yet... so I am going to have to hold off on answering that question until I get to taste test everything. Before I have them close this journal, I will do a complete report on each strain - promise!

Looks like that blizzard finally hit your place Granny!

Now hide all your sharp instruments! The temptation is going to be strong with this grow:slide:

:goodjob:

:hugs::hugs::hugs:OldSkoool:hugs::hugs::hugs::adore::adore::adore: I still love Wanda's snow!!!! I think you are absolutely right about hiding the sharp instruments!!! I ran out of dube a week ago and it is dry here. I just got done snipping a little tiny bit more of the Medijuana and a little bit of the LD.... I COULDN'T resist!!!!!! Don't tell OMM!!! :cool:
 
((((mr-natural!!!)))) I am so glad you actually got some REAL positive outta my grow cuz I can tell you are going to expand!!! :woohoo: So good to see ya!!!!!!

:hugs::hugs::hugs:Butcher honey!!!:hugs::hugs::hugs: You sweetie! Ya mentioned the blueberry - my goodness that one has trichs EVERYWHERE. It has them on the top AND BOTTOM of the leaves, clear out on the fan leaves, and all over the stems. It is just completely saturated. The buds are thinner and longer (not as round and fat), but hell - it looks like I might even be able to smoke the roots!!! LOL

:hugs::hugs::hugs:McBudz!!!:hugs::hugs::hugs: Words just aren't enough sometimes. Thank you for being here for me. Wish I could just wrap my granny arms around you in a wonderful hug. Luv you.

Ok... I know there are messages I didn't get answered and my feeble brain probably left someone out. I'M SORRY! There are just so many hours in a day and I truely wish I could just spend time here and in my grow room...

Speaking of grow room... it is a constant challenge. Let's see...
I fill up gallon after gallon of water downstairs, carry them upstairs, use pH down on every gallon, figure out what needs water, mix either NovaFlora for blooming plants (I use 1 tsp per gallon every watering - which is 1/2 of what it says to use weekly) or Grow Big for the bigger vegging plants (I need to report on these one of these days) or nothing more for the smaller clones...
oh - but I forgot the mosquito dunk mix... I thought the gnats were gone and stopped using this (works great and doesn't seem to harm the plants), but a few gnats have appeared again, so once again I am adding 1/4 gallon of this mix to every gallon of water - so lot's of measuring with every gallon of water...
then water
and water
and water
And the ONA bucket only keeps control of the pungent odor if I run the fan on high and keep adding water/ONA mix every 4-5 days...
And some of the veg plants are getting LST, some have been getting hardened as clones so it's cover and uncover...
And it's been fun trying to maintain the temps, but I've got a system that works fairly well... heat turned on at lights out... a/c turned on at lights on so temps maintain 66F (night) to 78F in the flower room, 82F in the veg closet...oh, but I have to open up the veg room every morning and close it every night or it gets to warm during the day...
and yes, doing anything with this many plants means constantly moving this plant to get to that plant... so watering and taking pics is good exercise!!!
and I did put in dowel rods and wreath rings on every flowering plant and am often adjusting these or the new growth of the plants in these...
and it's often move them as they grow due to height changes, or just to get them a little change in light...

You get the idea? LOL!!! I do need all of you out there cheerin' for me cuz this is a ton of work.

I know I didn't even list all the things that are constantly needing done, but the thing I think I DO THE MOST OFTEN??? LOOK AT THEM IN COMPLETE AWE AND WITH THE DEEPEST RESPECT. And I best get back to it!

LOVE TO ALL!!!!!
 
A labor of love it is. You will end up with the greatest of rewards for sure. I used to do the 1 gallon at a time thing then decided to mix up in larger batches like 5 gallon buckets or larger storage bins. Its a lot easier to mix and adjust one or 2 big batches veg and bloom than individual ones. I then rigged up a submersible $10 pump with 1/2 inch vinyl hose and made myself a watering hose. Just plugged the pump into a powerstrip and thats my on off switch. Just cut yourself enough tubing to reach all the plants from the bin of water and water em' that way. Dont really have to move the plants around much. Just reach the hose to the tops of the soil and go for a count like 8 seconds and move on to the next. I felt it just made my watering days a whole lot easier.

Nice post McBUDZ!! now thats innovation!!
 
Well, Granny, you won't believe what I found on Wanda, the ol girl tried to reproduce herself! Wouldn't say she's a full fledged hermie with only one pollen sac, but still quite a surprise finding it in her 5th week of flower.

We kid a lot about taking buds early, but what the hay, it's why we grow right? If it's dry, or the cost is insane like it is now, and the young buds do the trick, it's a no brain'er in my book. You certainly have a world class selection to chose from.

++ Reps for keeping up with the labor intensive requirements for all those plants. I get tired sitting here thinking about the watering, feeding schedules, adjustments, and routine inspections your faced with, in addition to your regular demands, both private,and business:clap:
