Carcass' $150 Low Budget Grow 2019

[Carcass]

Mine have both been dry since this morning- they haven't noticed yet, so I'll wait till tomorrow morning to fill 'em up!
I guess, when I think about it, they probably wouldn't even start to droop till Monday or so- lotsa water in that soil!

 

[Carcass]

I'm so sorry, GF- I totally missed this one yesterday...

These girls are looking sweeet them dots work the magic.

Thank You, GF- Those Dots really do a good job! It's odd, having nothing to do but water them every day...
But, I'm noticing the Dots seem a little weak in the Potassium dep't., so I started adding a little Purpinator to their feed to see if I can avoid the yellowing I got with them last time. I tried Nitrogen on that one, and it had zero effect, so I obviously read the leaves wrong that time...and,I may be reading them wrong this time too- we'll see in a week or so...

And if you can get a plant "almost there" with just water and only need to amend near the end that's a win in my book!

 

[Carcass]

Thanks, GDB!
Like last time, things were going great, until they weren't...
Even though the last one was pretty yellow at the end, the buds didn't seem to suffer a bit, so, I think this one will do ok, even if it goes yellow like the last one...

I'd rather it didn't, though...I'll know in a few days if I'm barking up the wrong tree this time too..
It's a little odd that both of them are doing it, since the AH has been in the dots 13 days less than the ATF
(76 days for the ATF, 63 days for the AH) both flipped 42 days ago..

Maybe the AH is using up the nutes faster in order to deal with her economy class seating.

 

[Carcass]

Yeah, even when the sun's out, she still gets stuffed into
the ellipse of illumination® four hours a day...and into the closet at night...
I think she might be "stress eating"...

Arrr well it’s a learning curve for us all every time we drop a seed overall they’re looking amazing so no bother

 

[InTheShed]

Ha, made it back before the next update! I bet they look even better today...

Figured I'd throw in an artsy bud shot...I see my background wasn't quite black enough...

FTFY:

 

[Carcass]

Thanks, GF! It really is- I learned that just because they seem like a runt at first, doesn't mean they'll stay that way...and then you end up with 2 plants instead of one...

I bet they look even better today...

I'd settle for them looking like they looked last week...when all the leaves were green...

FTFY:

Thanks, Shed- much better!
================================================================================
Now, it's Monday Update time!

Both girls are doing pretty well, but I think the GrowDots may be getting a little weak, although it's not a serious problem yet...

First, the 101 day old ATF-it's her 78th day in the SIP....flipped 44 days ago, and still 21" tall...


SaugaView®

I'm thinking it's the start of a Potassium deficiency, so I started her on Purpinator on Saturday-
I'm going easy with it, Because I've burnt a few plants with Potassium and I'd rather that didn't happen again...

She's crankin' out the pistils like there's no tomorrow..

A closer look...

An even closer look...

On to the "finally outdoors" Amnesia Haze-87 days old, 65 days in the SIP, and also flipped 44 days ago,
still 17" tall
She's actually doing great out in the sun, and so far, no bugs have found her.
I see by this shot that today is haircut day again ...

She's got a few funky leaves on her- not as many as the ATF, but she's been in the Grow Dots 13 days less than the ATF .
Overall, she's pretty healthy..

One of her buds..

And the double bud...

And there you have it!
That's about all for today,
Thanks for looking, I appreciate the support.

I hope your life and your gardens are both thriving!

 

[InTheShed]

ATF is really filling out nicely and obviously using the leaves to get there! Good idea to add something special to the water, and you might as well do the same for the AHa rather than wait for it to show the same signs as its garage-mate.

And I'd say it's perfect timing to get AHa outside in the sun now. I hope we're done with the rain!

 

[Grand Daddy Black]

The AH has been liberated and she looks like she loves it!

The leaves of your ATF look the same as the ones on my Crescendo. I went after a mag issue. I was wrong. I hope you're right in your diagnosis!

 

[Carcass]

you might as well do the same for the AHa

Thanks, Shed - That's what I figured, too, so they both drink from the same jug.

I hope we're done with the rain!

Not going to miss it a bit- and the wind can go next!

The AH has been liberated and she looks like she loves it!

She likes the Atreum, but she loves that sunshine!

The leaves of your ATF look the same as the ones on my Crescendo.

I noticed that yesterday- So we now know mag doesn't help, and nitrogen doesn't help, so If potassium doesn't help, you know what that means?
...we're running out of shit to try...

Good morning C Double Bud

Looks as beautiful as always!

 

[Carcass]

Looks as beautiful as always!...

Thanks, T.!
She's trying to get ugly now- hopefully, I can stop her before she gets too carried away...

 

[HashGirl]

You grow such pretty plants. It probably helps you're not growing 16 of them like I am.

 

[Carcass]

Thank You, HashGirl!

It probably helps you're not growing 16 of them like I am.

I'm sure it does!
I can't imagine having 16 plants going- I had five going a few years ago, back in my Miracle-Gro days, and that seemed like more than enough...although, If I smoked more, I'd probably grow more than one (or, occasionally 2 ) at a time.
Even growing just one at a time, I've got about 4 lbs. of surplus weed in the closet, so one at a time has me fixed for weed for quite awhile...
I'll always be growing something, because I enjoy the growing as much as I enjoy the smoking...
but for now it'll just be one (or two)

 

[InTheShed]

I've got about 4 lbs. of surplus weed in the closet

You should give some of that to Tad for safekeeping.

 

[Carcass]

I should!
And while I'm at it, I'll ask if he's seen the Grow Dots x2 that someone lost....

 

[Trala]

Happy Easter C Bunny!



Oh and tell JG he gonna be a daddy again! Xo

 

[StoneOtter]

Ha, made it back before the next update! I bet they look even better today...


FTFY:

Wowza! That's a beauty of a pic Shed/Carcass! Her trichomes are like hovering clouds hanging above green fields!
