Thank You, T.!
The Dots should get a lot of the credit for this one ...
Thanks, Beez!- I hadn't considered them, but I am now...I'm headed to Home Depot a little later, I'll see
what they've got...
Thank you, mumps! Good to see you, glad you're back!
It's been a minute...got anything growing ?
And remember on the casting to splurge a little and give each plant more than 1/4 tsp.

I got some worm castings, but they're only 1.25% nitrogen...sounds kinda weak, not sure if that'll be enough...
J/k- I'll probably put about half an inch of the castings on top of the soil, and water it in when the time comes..
so, a whole tsp?

That was a little jab for GDB when he stops by. I was kidding him on one of his past grows trying to get him to up his game with the castings. I know you won't be stingy. I'm not sure you could use too much as a topdress.

Thanks, Azi!
I've added about a quart of castings to the soil in a couple of past grows, but I was out of them when this plant got transplanted.
I don't know if they helped my last plant (GSC) but they sure didn't hurt it...
Another thing I love so much about this site, for stoners, some folks have good memories...and jokes!

Looking good carcass, I'm as old as you and I would take the off-road board to the park (after a rain) get padded up and while medicated (just to have a OBE while falling) see if I can have fun like I did 40yr's ago.Another Monday! and a rainy one at that!
Time for a little Update on the little @Weed Seeds Express Zkittles...
The SaugaView®: (this pic makes her look real wide, she's actually only 12")
She's 44 days old, been in the Grow Dots for 21 days. She's 5.5" tall...
The Grow Dots are doing a great job so far-Thanks again to @Grand Daddy Black for trying them first...
She needs water every 3 days, (1/2 gallon) which also includes 3ml. of silica, and 1.25g. of Real Growers Recharge.
Watering to runoff is not recommended with the Dots, so I don't do it.
Just one of her happy little main branches...
She's 27" from the light @ 120 watts (and loving it)
I have about ten more days before the Dots will run out of nitrogen, so, I either need to flip her now, or plan on supplementing the Dots...I'll be supplementing, because I'm not planning on flipping till about day 60...
One more thing that I thought was interesting- My youngest son moved back in for awhile, and he brought his motorized skateboards with him...
the top one is for off road, the bottom one is for the street. The jar of weed is to keep them on topic...
Anyhow- They're pretty cool- I'd like to try one, but I'd probably bust a hip or something...
And that's about all there is today!
Thank You for looking, I really appreciate the support
Have a great week, see you next time!

Not all folks..some of us suffer from c.r.s....
(can't remember shit)
I might ride it around on the grass for a minute- and it just rained yesterday...
Good to see you, raziel!
I know, right?....
wait.......which one?
you'll have to be more specific, Boo ..
Yeah, but when it comes to my shenanigans, folks seem to have c.f.s!

Oh riding it on the grass was a given, that's the reason of the rain, the ground will be softer to land on after the fall...I might ride it around on the grass for a minute- and it just rained yesterday...
I'm a old stoner not a old dummie...- Thread starter

Ha! Can't forget shit? I have the other kind of c.f.s - can't find shit...
Yep, and we know a fall is going to happen if I get on that thing...
That's not surprising, c.r.s and c.f.s (of your type) are often paired afflictions. You're lucky though, because when paired they often lead to c.g.s.Ha! Can't forget shit? I have the other kind of c.f.s - can't find shit...
You seemed to have escaped that fate! (c.g.s = can't grow shit).

Yep, that one hasn't got me...not yet, anyway...You seemed to have escaped that fate! (c.g.s = can't grow shit).
Here it is Monday again...so it's Update time for the little Zkittles!
The SaugaView®:
She's 51 days old today, it's her 29th day in the Grow Dots. She's a happy little plant...still getting nothing but water, a little silica, and, every other watering, 1.25g of Real Growers Recharge.
I was giving the RGR with every watering...
Then, I read the instructions
Now, it's every other watering...
A pic of her out of the box...she's a very dark green, so there's no nitrogen deficiency yet...but that may be coming up in a week or so...
She's 6" tall and 14" wide- I'm going to let her grow upward now so, hopefully, she's around 10 inches tall when I flip her to 12/12 in ten days or so...
Hooking the tie downs to the drip tray didn't work very well, so I used a large 36" HVAC zip tie, and some binder clips to hold the branches down past the edge of the pot
One of the 8 main branches...
And that's about all there is today...
Thanks for looking, I really appreciate the support...
You can find the USA/Australia comparative grow here...
Have a great week, everyone- see you next time!

Love the zip tie idea CDog. You always coming up with ways to make exceptional plants better. How much the new system cost? Can’t be blowing the budget now.

So pretty! Gonna be another boxful, if a bit shorter than the record-breaker.
The power of positive thinking.
Another 4" in ten days is easy once you stop sticking it with hooks!
I hear that GDBungees® will work for those who don't have 36" zip ties handy.

Yeah, that GSC is going to be hard to beat...
I had 1 bungee cord, and it was too short...that zip-tie has been hanging in the garage for ten years or so- I knew if I kept it long enough, I'd find something to use it for...
Ha! If I took the hooks all the way off, she'd be 4" taller by tomorrow morning...
She’s gorgeous Carcass! And that’s a great idea with the zip tie…I had no idea they came in such a large size!

Sorry, NTH- I missed this one...
last week..
I would of used a noodle like last time, but my noodle turned up missing when the kids moved (back) in
last week..
I had the zip-tie, and I stole the binder clips from Mrs.C...so it was pretty affordable...
