Carcass' $150 Low Budget Grow 2019

[InTheShed]

Welcome to the 2000's 2010's 2020's Carcass! The plants look terrific and I'm glad you're getting some sunlight up there. Won't be long before they're all just one enormous plant though.

 

[Carcass]

Won't be long before they're all just one enormous plant though.

I was pretty sure they were far enough apart...when I planted them...now, it's looking like 6 feet apart might have been better than 4...
So, they might end up a weed hedge..

Plants look nice as can be, Carcass!

7 seconds to boot up...the old one took like 4 minutes +....

Up until about 15 years ago I was holding on to an original IBM PC, just for shits and giggles.

When my son was old enough to understand, one day I booted it up for him and he had the biggest laugh! I think it took about 6+ minutes to boot!

Thank You, GDB- They really are doing well, considering the lack of sun out there for the last week...
seems like sun might be more important to me than it is to them..

I was holding on to an original IBM PC,

I had one of those also- 456kb of memory, and a 5mhz processor..
and it weighed like 30 pounds...

"in 1981, IBM announced the IBM Personal Computer with a price tag of $1,565."

I got mine for 50 cents at the thrift store a few years later..

A few pics, and a few words...

Critical Kush#1 is big...I can't rotate her anymore...

Had to poke a stick thru the box to keep her inside the door...

These girls got rained on a little last night:

They've both grown 2" since Thursday...I wonder how long that's going to continue...

That's all for now-
Thanks for having a look!

Good morning C Showers

She looks just lovely.

And your outdoor girls are bang on perfect!

 

[Grand Daddy Black]

The outdoor girls seemed to like the rain!

You poked holes through the BOX?

 

[Carcass]

She looks just lovely.

And your outdoor girls are bang on perfect!

Thank you,T!
I think Critical Kush#2 is going to be a monster.
..a pretty monster, but a monster nonetheless...

The outdoor girls seemed to like the rain!

It was just enough to wash the dust off....

You poked holes through the BOX?

Big ones, this time....there's plenty of paper-clip size
holes in her, these are the first big ones..

Which got me to thinking...I could make a scrog net with those sticks...(kind of a tic-tac-toe looking thing)...I probably won't...but I could..

 

[StoneOtter]

Plants are looking wonderful and welcome back to technology!

 

[Carcass]

Thanks, Stone... Yeah, I seem to have gotten lucky this year...hell, even the little Forbidden Fruit seedling is still alive...

I should of gotten a new laptop about 8 years ago, but I just got used to using that slow old turd...but when it wouldn't stay connected to wi-fi, that was the last straw...

Best $400 I've spent in a loonnngg time..

That box would sure be a sturdy one though!!

That box would sure be a sturdy one though!!

And it's practically bulletproof already...

I hope everyone is having a nice Memorial Day...
Seems like a good time for an Update...

First up is the @Barney's Farm Critical Kush..
She's apx 77 days old, and she seems to have stopped stretching right on schedule (21 days into flower)
She's 28" tall now, which is right at the maximum for the box- if they get into that exhaust fan, then they're too tall, so she opted for "just right"...

I turned the light down to 145watts (from 165) she's 9" away from it...

It's hard to tell what the whole plant looks like...( tbh, I don't know either...)

You can see that stick across the doorway- there's 9 or 10 buds that wanted to fall out when the door got opened, so the stick is to keep them inside once they gain a little weight...

A ground-up shot....funny- I've removed 2 little branches from her. That's all, just the 2, plus 4 or 5 leaves...probably just going to let her go to the end with all her limbs- she's dropping a few leaves everyday on her own...

A little pom-pom...the frost is starting..

On to the outdoor girls- they were both 4" tall when they went out there on 4/20, and 37 days later, the CK is 47", and the Somango is 38" tall...

This one looks like a friggin' palm tree, with her huge fan leaves...

And this one is progressing nicely...she's a "slow and steady wins the race" kinda gal...

And we can't forget about the 12 day old, 2 inch tall Forbidden Fruit seedling...She's been in the "seedling chamber" all her life...she could be a little greener, but other than that, she's doing fine..
That's a little swick she's in now, which should get her prepped for life in the big SIP...

Speaking of the big SIP- I got it filled this morning- it's only a 20 gallon pot- seemed bigger, but the soil doesn't lie...and the dome takes up a lot of room in there too...
The seedling will be going in here soon-(because I have no where else to put her) there's also 48 tsp of Grow Dots and some Dynomyco, plus a gallon of added perlite in there..

I'll post up some transplant pics when it happens- that seedling is going to look pretty silly in that huge SIP....but she'll grow out of it..or in to it, or both...

And that's about all for today-
Thanks for looking, I appreciate your support
I hope your gardens are thriving, and your week goes well

Thanks Carcass that was a very good Update.

 

[Grand Daddy Black]

Impressive inside and out, Carcass!

Great that the boxed one cooperated.

 

[StoneOtter]

They look perfect!

 

[SnoopingAsUsualI]

They look great! Although I'd be too scared to not replace all the clay with good soil. I do know that the plants don't really need all of it to be changed and the area beneath the plant is enough but...kinda my habit I guess

 

[KeithLemon]

Carcass your plants look real nice and your box is full. I love your box plants look nice in it.

 

[Carcass]

Thanks Carcass that was a very good Update.

Thank You, Keith!
It's easy when the plants are cooperating..

Great that the boxed one cooperated.

Thanks, GDB...That was a close one.!..

They look perfect!

Thank You, Stone....I must be doing something right this year...

They look great!

Thanks, Snoop, and welcome to my journal..

I love your box plants look nice in it.

A good example of wall-to-wall weed...

One of the benefits of adult kids moving back..

Ha! I've got a couple of those...2 out of 5 ain't bad...

 

[InTheShed]

Great all-inclusive update! I feel totally caught up on all things Carcass.

They've both grown 2" since Thursday...I wonder how long that's going to continue.

I'm guessing mid-August?

She's apx 77 days old, and she seems to have stopped stretching right on schedule (21 days into flower)

I chalk that up to the talent of the grower, because why not!

the stick is to keep them inside

Another use for the XL versions.

the frost is starting

Does that mean the smell is as well?

that seedling is going to look pretty silly in that huge SIP

Draw a circle around it so we can see where it is!

 

[Carcass]

Great all-inclusive update!

Thanks, Shed!- There's a lot going on this year...lazy meter be damned!

I'm guessing mid-August?

Damn...they're going to be real big by then..

Another use for the XL versions.

I knew those would come in handy.....

Does that mean the smell is as well?

I don't think it smells yet, Although, according to MrsC. I'm noseblind when it comes to weed..

Draw a circle around it so we can see where it is!

Hey, if it's like the other ones, it might be big by the next update...
