Barneys Farm Sponsors Grow: Gorilla Zkittles, Orange Sherbert Plus Many More

[ProfessorFlora]

Well the Phantom OG is living it up! Bathing in milk! Whatever next? I didn't hold back this time and did the entire plant and not just the infected areas....

 

[MrSauga]

OMG you didn't do that to the cat again did you? I don't think he enjoyed it the first time.

Lol! Look how proud those eyes are in the last pic...or maybe it's surprise

POG got her new pot! For this one I've mixed in some perlite and a little bit the old soil to help break it up a bit. The old soil has had a good flush before I used it. I'm hoping to put this one into flower in a few weeks. It'll be before June....

I've not gotten far with these 2 yet but I'll have them in flower before the weekend....

Gorilla Zkittles....

Orange Sherbert....

Only us growers would ever want a holiday to be over so we can get back to the garden lol

Ever since I started growing I've wondered about growing multiple plants in a single pot. Mainly for ease really. I used to get caught out with pots drying out and having to water individually which means you may be constantly watering if you have a lot of plants. When I looked for info on the subject most people said that it was a bad idea because of the roots competing for space. I don't think that this would be a problem if the pot was 90x90 and a foot tall. As long as the plants didn't get too big I can't see an issue with it. Maybe a sea of green with clones that are given a very short veg time would work as well. It would make inspecting individual plants more tricky though as you ain't taking that pot out of the tent until the end lol

I don't know how long the roots keep growing once flowering is initiated but they grow strong during the flowering stretch. When I've put clones straight into flower they've had some good roots after they were harvested

I do think there are a lot unfounded myths over sharing bedspace ( Frankie Howard moment followed with an "Oooooooeer Missus"!!)
roots mixing causing battles to actually kill each other. Opposing leaves deliberately converting pass through light to a killer spectrum for enemies. I am of your thinking too and if it wasnt for the covert nature of our predicament , would we worry so much if outside in a well tilled garden or go with a whole bed of girls like commercial fruits. Seems obvious to me in retrospect. Seeing Emilya and Angrybird using beds is an inspiration to. could be a great resource for future project.

Hey 420! Things are moving ahead nicely now I'll be putting the Gorilla Zkittles and Orange Sherbert into flower soon. They are shrubs now and need a good thinning. The OS is so compact and I can't wait to see her stretch a bit. The GZ has so many growth tips that it's going to be interesting to see her flower....

Gorilla Zkittles....

Orange Sherbert....

The Spider is exploring her new home....

I've started the clean up but it'll take some time....

looking brilliant mate. We do the same thing with the nft trays for coco runoff too.mate.lol.
loving the bushes.

love it Prof. At least folks wont think i am mad anymore banging on about milk.

 

[Ganjagrandaddy]

quick update with only 4 days left till i go away and abandon them for 10 days. All doing good and looking sturdy. Getting 5 days per soak before needing water again so hopefully wicking a bit will keep them smiling till i get back. All system full steam ahead then.

 

[ProfessorFlora]

They look great GG. How many days old are they now?

After spraying the POG the tent now has a strong dairy odour when I open the door lol. I keep getting surprised by it!

 

[Virgin Ground]

OMG you didn't do that to the cat again did you? I don't think he enjoyed it the first time.

Hahaha!!! Did you see the amount he got last time? Poor cat. Get him some electrolytes!

 

[ProfessorFlora]

I gave him a cigarette

 

[Virgin Ground]

Now you're forcing him to smoke? Will the cruelty never end? Gasp *faint*.

 

[InTheShed]

Love your optimism on natures plans

If @Dutchman1990 means it he'd be snipped by now. Otherwise he's all talk!

IKR!

I'll do what I did before and remove all the bad leaves

wondering if thrips will eat seedlings

Yes! If the milk doesn't work, neem might be too harsh for the little ones. Try mild dish soap/water on those, or after pistils show on the big one.

I do think there are a lot unfounded myths over sharing bedspace

And here I thought you were talking babies again....

hopefully wicking a bit will keep them smiling till i get back.

Great idea GG!

Yuck! I hate the smell of sour milk.

While I was catching up it was like a suspense novel as the leaves got worse and worse and the pots still hadn't arrived! I'm glad everything is sorted Professor. Please excuse my absence!

Don't worry, he's a millennial so it was an e-cig

Hey Shed! Thank you. The thrips seem to have been hugely reduced since the spraying. We had a dry spell in the weather for a good few weeks then it became really humid and rained. That seems to have woken up all the insects and other invertebrates in my neighbourhood and they've decided to converge in my growroom

Yuck! I hate the smell of sour milk.

Agreed

absence excused! The next chapter is just about to begin and I've decided to call it Part 2 The Flowering Inferno! I wonder if this novel will have a happy ending....not like the cat

 

[InTheShed]

I'm up for part 2! Your flowering plants are always on fire .

 

[ProfessorFlora]

Why thank you sir! I shall do my best

Welcome to the cowshed heehee. I found that if i sprayed early enough , it evaporated real quick as the tent heated up.
My little ladies are now on Day 13 since putting in the plugs unsoaked. Still so stoked they all popped this way so quickly. . hoping the break will give them a few nodes while away so i can start the quads.

Welcome back mate. heehee. Mother-in-Law has offered to give me the "snip" now to save money on more Christmas presents !!! I told her it would be more coffin bearers for her big day !!! .Haven't seen her broomstick overhead for a few days now !

 

[InTheShed]

I'm surprised you haven't been contacted by the World Population Balance organization. I'm sure they'd sponsor it!

They should look great by the time you get back. A lot can happen in 10 days.
