Hey Vannelle, Not that I'm old, but I spent three days trying to find UTube on my TV. I finally found it on that newfangled thing called the InterWeb.

I've been photographing these twin buds for weeks now. You can see the trichome development, but unfortunately the red spectrum makes it impossible to see their color. Think of this as a picture from the plantet, Krypton. (Hey, if Krypton has a red sun, does that mean that their marijuana plants are always in flower? No wonder Superman can fly!)
Now a question for the Clonemeisters out there. (You know who you are.) Here's a picture of
There's a red arrow halfway up the plant (sorry it's so small). If you look closely at this point, you can still see the hairs from when she was in flower. Anyway, she's getting gawky and lanky. What do I do now? Do I top her like a regular plant or do I let her get tall and scrawny? This is my first attempt at cloning and I'm not sure what to do next. Little help please.

Being that stoned would you really notice the fact your sitting on snow in the deck chairs lol
LOL@your post grant, thats hilarious!
Heard aluminium foil was ok to use if you turned it around to the not so shiney side?

Wow, so many replies! Thanks, guys.
I am so exhausted today, I almost don't have the energy to get ripped and post back. (I said ALMOST !)
I only got 3 hours sleep last night. I woke up a half hour before the girls' bedtime. I'd raised the HPS as high as I could, but the tops were starting to get burned.
There's not a chance in Hell that I'm going to tie down 80 colas! So I decided to change how the ballast is hung. It was on a pair of metal braces screwed into a crossbeam and the valence was cantilevered from them with metal chains.
Yes, St. Thomas Aquinas thanks for pointing out that cantilevers were used extensively in Gothic Roman Catholic churches. (F**king know-it-all!)
I had a half hour before putting the girls to bed, so I shut off the light, moved them into the bathroom:
Then I removed the metal braces. I had some plastic hangers that have an adhesive backing as well as a hole for a drywall screw and an anchor. No way I'm hanging my valence with adhesive.
My grow space is really cramped. The ceiling is higher on both sides of the crosspiece and the place I wanted to put the hooks is in a tight alcove 3" wide at the top and 4" wide at the bottom. I took off the adhesive, slapped it on near the top of the alcove and painstakingly made a hole in the drywall with a wood screw, then seated the anchor and screwed the drywall screw in.
With such little clearance, I couldn't use a screwdriver, so I used a vice grip to clamp the screw and turn it. With the clearance, I could only turn the screw 1/4 revolution with each twist.
Needless to say, this took forever. After I finished, I found the hooks themselves (they snap off so you can put the screw through the base) wouldn't fit!
So, I unscrewed the hangers (1/4 turn at a time), then moved them lower and did the above all over again.
The real bummer is that the alcove space is too tall to reach sitting down or squatting and too short to stand up. So, I ended up on my knees for two hours like a $5 whore at a stag party! (Whoa, where did that come from?)
Now that I've got that out of the way, let me answer some fan mail:

But I'm a Maverick! I don't play by the rules! I put the shiny side toward the kids. Go on, report me to the "not so precious metals" police.
Seriously, I, too, read that you shouldn't face the shiny side of aluminum foil towards your crop (thanks, Vannelle, for calling it poor man's mylar - LOL).
It's supposed to create hot spots on your plants.
Come on! A million scientists can't even focus the Hubble Telescope, so how is a ratty sheet of shiny metal going to focus an intense beam of light on your plants. People! This is not a James Bond movie where the reflection is going to be focussed like a laser beam and set your entire crop on fire!
Sorry for the rant, kamykazi3! It wasn't aimed at you! I saw your journal and I think you're cool, man. I'm just tired of some of the crap that gets posted!

Hey,
Is it just me or are some of my posts getting deleted or their pictures missing. I can't find the one I posted about the Royals and Amy Winehouse, nor can I find some of the pics I've attached to my posts.
Did they get censored or am I being paranoid?

Never mind,
I just found out that I had violated some of the guidelines for posting here. I thought I was going crazy! Problem solved. I'll try to be more circumspect in the future.
Thanks agian!

Yeah, the babies are back home, V-Dude.
I took one out again trying to get a decent yellow sun picture, but I don't have a tripod. It's amazing how much brighter the grow space is than my bathroom. I put in enough bulbs to have 300W incandescent lighting, but that's nothing compared to a 400W HPS bulb.
I was hoping to be able to show you what the trikes look like. I took one extra picture under the red sun. The trikes are more clearly evident, but you can't see their color.
Here's the snaps:

I got up early this morning, so I could try another experiment taking pictures. This roving reporter has clipped a globe with 2 25W CFL's onto his shoulder trying to get some better pictures for his adoring fans. I also used a makeshift tripod. The results?
Not so spectacular. I may have to replace the HPS for the MH for a few hours just to get a decent shot of the trikes. (Yes, I'm OCD!) By the way, I looked at them under a 10X loupe last night and they are still clear. They are developing but still need to get bigger. Most are standing erect. When they turn milky and start to sag would be, I think, a good time to harvest.
They have just finished 6 weeks in flower. The skinny on these critters (from the seed provider) is:
There was no smell during veg. When I switched to flower, I noticed the smell starting to get really strong and thought it's turn to turn on the carbon filter. I completely forgot to do this as the smell just seemed to fade. I'm still not using the filter. I don't disturb the girls too much, but if I move them around a lot - Whoa!
Even though the photos I took are less than rivetting, I'm going to post them anyway (because it took so much trouble to take them, that's why!).
Here goes:
