Advocate420 Soil Grow 2018

Okay, trained them down. Super cropped some of the whisky middle stalks, should help them get bigger and stronger. The soil looked a little dry but since the roots havnt filled the pot yet I’m going to go with it until tomorrow. Maybe roots will go searching. Of course with 20 gal the lift the pot test is out.

The AK in flower is a monstercrop, as is the vegging Gold Leaf. I've been hit and miss with seeds lately. The Sour G from Rooster grew really well from seed even though the tap root snapped off when I put it into soil. The Auto Masszar never did anything much and this Haze Xtreme is moving at a snail's pace. I'd have to say I do better with clones these days once I get them to root ;). I hope the Haze speeds up...I want to flip it in July!
I have always felt growing is a fine mix of both skill........and luck.

Hahaha same here I sing it too
I love when minds work alike!

So many things I want to say but shouldn't.... ;0
Let me know if you can’t find how to message me :eek:

Why not? Things you say can help others or you can get a better understanding of things you already know.

The Amish say, "Many hands make light work." I think it kinda goes with knowledge too.
That’s the, Two heads are better than one concept :)

Is that the origin of the joke:
Q. How many Amish does it take to make light work?
A. Many.
I think the Amish don’t make lights work, just candles :D

Very nice training going on!
Always ! I would do nothing else!

Had a nice hike today, suns been shining, training ahead. Me not the plants.

Yo bro they look really beautiful.. love the training as well.. you play no games!! Hahah:cool:
 
mr.A, what's going on, how's the ladies..... It's such a shame that our governments think it's more fun being a hindrance in getting us healthy.... Fast foods are the same, they kill ya but they won't stop feed ya...... but I will make a concession for Wendy's .....lol only got a mcd's back here who I do support when the the urge hits
 
Everything's cool here . No worries. How's your babies coming along ?
So far so good. When topped the Blueberry OG I think I fimmed by accident. Needed couple more stakes as it had 4 + stalks. Also the middle growth was beefier.

Life is a game, stakes are higher tho.
Now that's what they're supposed to look like! Excellent.
Thanks. Hope the middle growth gains some girth.

Unfortunately I don’t believe our health is in mind as much as lining people’s pockets. It’s a broken system. Big pharma truly runs things I think. It’s very sad as there is no medication that works so well for so many people without deadly side effects. I have been on a strict diet and don’t buy much of anything on the shelves. Actual food is scarce as it’s mostly processed and made with ingredients that are less like food. GMO, pesticides, even the fruits and veggies are sickly.
Indeed a very pretty photo collection of your plants. Adv420
Thank you! Getting a little nervous as I gain more watchers. I always feel I’m being tricked and hunted lol.
 
Still doing well, every thing looking healthy. More staking and super cropping. Things are growing fast. Here is some pics of the window vent I made. All venting now in summer set up. AC in.
Started with 2 inch foam, cut holes, put 1/2 inch wood to create a space with the from cover.
There is the space. I used the plastic sign material for the putter part so it’s should all be weather proofed.
Here’s what it looks like from outside before painting.
Painted, from outside.
Inside is just the ducting hooked into the two holes with everything taped. Made a big difference to temp and humidity !
Here are the girls before training.
After training and leaf tucking. Also fired up the 600w MH and no longer under the T5
 
Yea head is struggling a bit. Had to take a step back as All I could think about was my posts and how it’s was effecting me. I was spending a lot of time caring what people think. I have no friends in life and havealways tried to have so much integrity, I never seem to make friends.
Also Paranoid tendency has me waiting a while to post pics so my journal isn’t real time. They are looking good and staring to fill my Scrog fast.
Hope all is well.
Prolly wasn’t the best idea to try and make friends here when I should be thinking about ways to meet people I can see in the real world. Just settling in that I’ll remain lonely and am not so sure sharing as much thought and feelings into an online medium is ultimately beneficial. I’m no legend and little I have to say would make little difference to me or anyone in this forum. So back to my less active online self I guess. Chores aren’t getting done, Money tight, thoughts that nothing is worth it.
Good Hash seems to help my symptoms a lot and I don’t need too much. Ive been out since my last super strong batch I posted. Was only a couple grams.
I tried using bud this round for ice hash and am not happy at all with yield for all the nice buds I used. I’ve called everyone in a 1 hr drive trying to find dry ice to try that method. I have good luck with the screen in my grinder works so well. I got same drying but idk. I mist be doing something wrong with the ice water bucket method.also kief from grinder is nothing as strong as my 73micron bag.

I haven't know or talked to you long but long enough to understand we suffer from the same shit!!! I could tell you were trap up top over thinking shit. I DM'ed ya on some real shit. On a different note I never tried any of that shit.. would love to! Always stuff with flower. I'm a philly city kid who always buys pot. Didn't even think it could be grown on the east coast.. hahahah that's how blind and shelter i was. I was from the poor ghetto one of the only white kids. So growing anything wasn't heard of. Any way what I was getting at is all this shit is new to me. Only dabbed a couple times besides smoking bowls, bongs, papers, or blunts. I wanna get into that shit and hoping you could help me?
 
I have experimented with most concentrates. No matter what I do or what med I take I have a high tolerance, something born from long lines of genes built for it. Plus I do indulge.
I would do anything I could to help you. The first problem I think is safety.
I’ve made BHO, butane hash oil for dabbing. It’s great for a cerebral high but a lot of the other things that make marijuana a medicine are stripped. So I left that Route.
Hash I am referring to is made with ice water, a bucket and some screens. I get poor very poor yield but it’s full of trichome heads not damaged or crushed that I think remain with most the other properties of cannabis minus the plant material.
I would try concentrates from CO2 or dispensary for dabbing methods but again the smoke gets me a head buzz but little symptom relief. Also these methods can preserve other canabinoids too.
Kief and hash seem to be similar but I find I like hash better for some reason. It takes a lot of kief I think but I havnt tried the dry ice method as I can’t find any.
Oils and microdosing I don’t use often as my dosing would be rediculouse.
Food infused cannabis is great. Most my close family gets relief from them but I can’t regulate like the dispensary so dosing has been discouraging. I for some reason barely react to edibles that put my dad into a coma for 48 hrs.
Solvents extracts like alcohol can work but it’s a careful scientific balance for something usable and a fine line to make trash so I don’t experiment there yet.
Rosen pressing I’m eyeballing hard. It crushes the tricomes and squeezes out the sricky. Good for a dab that hasn’t been stripped. Safe and no solvents. My way to go.
Most laws are making some of the different extraction methods BHO for example and peeps blowing themselves up.
Making edible infused coconut oil has been useful for cooking, I’d like to make capsules for use when I can’t smoke. Stuff like that. There is so much more out there. Lemme know if I can add any more.
I hate vaping raw plant. The taste isn’t enjoyable and takes away so of the effects I guess I like. Of course vaping concentrates in a pinch is a life saver and low key in public.
There’s so much more but these aren’t scientific data these are how they effect me.
Of note I do not smoke my plant material with any kind of water filters. My cannabis doc says it filters out some of the beneficials we know less about but know are therapeutic.
Hope that’s what you meant.

A little trick I learned with fiber pots and training, use big safety pins on the side of the pot and attach you training lines to them when transplanting to the new pot unhook them and move them.
