Yeah, kind of a retro thing. LOL

I had an OMG moment. I went outside in the gale force winds (not really, but felt like it. LOL) to check for the dreaded worms and didn't find a single critter on any of the plants. Not one. Zero, nada...zilch. Don't pinch me, I don't want to wake up......

:snooze:


I know just how you feel. I dont have to pull caterpillars off mine anymore, but I did have to for about a week. At the height of summer a few small moths attracted to the lights got in there. I didnt really give it much thought, until I started to find worms. lol I dont what I thought, that maybe they were infusing my plants with magic growing dust with their little feet I guess.

When I saw that picture of the plant on its side I winced. Im glad it was okay.

UPDATE GARAGE GROW DEFOLIATION DAY 10-2-15

Oh Cannafan! What have you done????

Well, I found a can of courage hidden in the pantry and chowed down. Gave it a while to settle in and headed for the garage girls.

I wound up giving a hair cut to all of them except the wide one (all the bud sites are well exposed on that one).
Now every bud site is open and able to get light, the goal is NO POPCORN. LOL

Here's some after shots. Two of them will be subject to time lapse to see the growth.

I also did a few super cropping to some of the straight up center growth to keep it down with the rest of the plant. Hope I didn't kill em'. :bitingnails:

defol_4.jpg


I started at the tops and removed all leaves that were blocking any buds, as I got down to the bottom of one of them a moth came out to holler at me. SO, they are still around.

I decided against the SCROG for this grow, I may do it next grow when the plants are less developed and I can train them a bit easier into the slots on the frame.

I probably would not have done this defol had it not been for seeing before/after videos and pics (thanks PeeJay, for yours) and what I've read about fan leaves and outdoor/indoor grows.

Fan leaves store the nutrients which is needed for outdoor grows because the plants are depending on the soil they are planted in. So, they store up in cases of drought etc. And the leaves are good protection for the plants from bugs (I will WHOLEHEARTEDLY disagree with that point! LOL) and heat.

Indoor grows are different in that we are providing nutrients to the plants with watering/feeding. They have a constant supply, so the fan leaves are not really needed for storage etc.

This makes sense to me, the proof will be in how these plants react for me.

This is just what I've read, not my own experience. :)

I was going to pollinate today, but we've got major wind again here. I'm going to wait for that to calm down so my cover bags aren't blown off the plants and I don't have to worry about pollen getting blown around during the process.
If it calms down later, then I'll head out to complete that.

The clones were potted in their seedling cups and are in the veg room. I'm going to have more clones, there are some small lower branches on the garage girls that I'm going to snip off.

That's it for now. :)

Also, one of the girls in the pics looks thirsty. She is closest to the heater in there, so she is going to need water more often than the rest. It drys her out pretty quickly.

I brought in some heated recliners...so you all can have your popcorn in comfort. ;-)

I just couldn't toss those huge fan leaves from White Widow without doing something photo-ish with it. The leaf angel watching over the plant......

*settles into his chair*

I brought along some DarkStar. :passitleft:

I'll probably be dozing in heated recliner comfort a lot of the time. If I start to snore throw a shoe at me or sumthin'.

Perfect repurposing of the fan leaves....I'll just stuff those in your mouth if you start snorin.

HI Sorenna,
I used to think moths were pretty (other than cloth moths in the house. Grrr....), but now I'm a bit irritated with them. LOL

Do a search on google images for moth eggs on cannabis and you will see some pictures that might help you identify things if you come across something strange on a leaf. I thought one of my plants had worm poo on it, when it very well may have been moth eggs.
Now that I see they are still around in the garage, I will keep being diligent about checking the leaves and the soil.

I did get a giggle out of your post though......:)

:rofl::rofl: You two are hilarious....I'm going to defol hard this grow as well...thanks for the example, Canna...
 
re: Cannafan's Perpetual Grow - Where Everything Changes - Autos - Photos - Seeds & More!

I finally found it! I KNEW I had posted this somewhere, it was on RSOiler's blog. I failed to put it on my own. LOL

This is for Shawnee....it's really cute and I knew you were fascinated with Trichomes:

I've put a lot of your great info on my blog Sista. I'm sure I'll be putting your Defol video on there as well. Life's been getting in the way lately but I'm all caught up now.
The picture of the THC Bomb's "face plant" was funny, :rofl: but only after you sais she was okay. :thedoubletake:
It always warms my heart when I hear someone say the oil makes them feel good. :drool: Do you smoke less when you are tacking the Concentrated Oil?? :hmmmm:
Love to mom. :Love:

Hi brother dear, been wondering how ya are. :)

I couldn't possibly smoke any less.....but I have been vaping more before sleep. ;-) My hands had been waking me up at night with swelling and pain from work. Sometimes I can't even bend my fingers during the night. The vaping has been helping with that a lot.
It's not arthritis, it's from the repetitive nature of my work.

However, speaking of Cannabis and Arthritis, I had read up on this recently and decided to post it to my blog this morning. This is an excellent "booklet" that covers tons of information on the subject with testimonials and comparisons to big pharma drugs:

I will be pollinating today, it appears the wind is giving us a little break here. Hopefully pics up later.

I didn't do a video of the actual defoliation, for obvious security reasons of my being in the vid. LOL
The video will be of the effect and growth results after the defol. I'll probably add some before and after shots in the beginning of the vid though.

re: Cannafan's Perpetual Grow - Where Everything Changes - Autos - Photos - Seeds & More!

Okay, laugh WITH me .....not AT me...

Donned my coat, paintbrush, glass vile with the "stuff" in it and headed out to pollinate.
Happily brushed on the "stuff", covered all with the bags and secured them. It was pretty wet out from last nights' rain and cold. Happy to come back inside.

I walk by the kitchen counter and see a glass vial with "stuff" in it. I picked it up to empty what I thought was the one with plain flour in it.....only to realize due to one lil' nanner shell in it, that it was the one with the pollen mixed in.

I had ever so carefully dusted those buds with plain flour.

:rofl::rofl:

I will be heading out to remove the bags and let the stuff dry off and blow away. I'll try again tomorrow if it's drier out.

{{sigh}} some days are just plain dumb....

Thanks for helping me to laugh Mr. Am4zin :)

While I was outside I took a couple shots of the Sleestack Skunk plants. Good thing these were freebie seeds, cuz I'm not impressed with the foliage at all. They have some tall colas though, and the sugar is building up:

BTW, the trimmed off leaves from the defoliation are drying out some and will get added to my soil bin and mixed in well. :) Repurpose....yepper. :)

Thanks for that link Sista, I'll keep that in my favorites list. It's a "must" read for people that want to use Cannabis for medical reasons.

Nights have been in low 40's here, and the buds on the outdoor Skunks are showing the cold weather effect. You can see the purple starting on the calyx's and the pistils are showing pinkish red instead of brown.
Going to be purty buds. :)

Medusa's cousin?
