[clrwatrtom]

Good morning
The girls look pretty happy. The purple kush af is the runt. The whitewidow is looking green and happy. The pp's are also looking good. It is taking a while to dry these girls out. Im gonna read about watering again and continue to wait for them to talk to me.

I am starting to see some good lift! Those roots are waking up!

 

[clrwatrtom]

Yea! not thirsty yet though.

 

[clrwatrtom]

is it too soon to do any grooming such has removing fan leaves over bud sites or more topping on the pp's? What about the af's? do they need any attention?

 

[clrwatrtom]

I was sitting back here with the girls this afternoon having a little Mighty session and tried some LST. I was working on the White Widow Autoflower which I probably shouldn't be touching, but I ended up breaking a twig stem on one of the big fan leaves underneath some flower off the bottom probably though the last node to sprout or maybe that was the first node to sprout. Feeling like an idiot, I got a piece of Scotch tape and wrapped it around the stem where it broke.
I think I saw somebody do that once before in another thread.

Yeah Tom, I had a major branch break off a plant, and the plant almost bent over, being so unsteady. I took some rope, and lashed it back together. It finished that way, and was able to harvest the whole plant. Took a few minutes to figure out what to do, though.
You did right. Maybe it will work, and maybe it won't, but it's a better chance than if you didn't. That's how we learn. You did good. Cheers

Good Sunday morning all, the tent doesn't even look like the same place it was yesterday. Very green very bright I'm still not smelling anyting should I be? Here's here's some pics of the girls.

 

[Bode]

Looking good, Tom. Nice and green, plenty of vegetation, no burnt tips, They're well on their way to adulthood! No smell, They will. And, they're all different. As long as they're green and healthy, you'll be fine. Nice job, man. Cheers

 

[clrwatrtom]

the runt is still the purple kush af, the whitewidow af is really starting to green up. the white i was seeing on the leaves earlier is gone. as is that top i broke yesterday. those are the 1st 4 pics. the last 2 pics are of the pp's, one is grandaddy purple and the other s afghan kush special. i think the are all females.

 

[clrwatrtom]

good morning all,
pretty green in the tent this morning. pics coming from phone. Will add once this post is started. I still haven't watered as i am waiting for them to tell me. (and maybe some help from Emilya)
im going to reread her post on watering potted plants.

good morning,
i just spent some time in the tent and i think it's looking pretty good. Yesterday afternoon i removed a few big fan leaves from the pp's to expose new flower sites. They looked thirsty to me so they got 1/2 gal of water and 1/2 gallon of low nutes between them to start. The af's are starting to look thirsty too. but i'm gonna have a coffee and a bowl with them just to hang out a bit. no rush.

 

[clrwatrtom]

Welcome George. Your grow has been keeping u busy and it looks great.

Two of my favorite things, Tom. Coffee and a bowl.

I can already tell, without even popping my first bean, that I'm going to struggle with holding off on the water. Before today, how long has it been since you watered, like a week? And yes, I've read just about everything that Emilya has keyed into cyberspace (still waiting on the book), but I also know that I'm not very bright. Emilya needs like a boot camp for young growers so that she can reprogram us - to save us from ourselves. I'm speaking for myself, Tom. You seem to be picking up what she's laying down, my friend. And they are looking great.

 

[clrwatrtom]

Thanks Jon. it is so hard to just leave them alone. But as i said, coffee, bowl and some deep breathing for me as i go in to love on the af's. a little lst perhaps on them and if they speak to me i will water and feed them minimal veg nutes, staying with my reefertilizer nute program i have initiated and stay on the less is more side and keeping my water at 6.3 to 6.5 ph with minimal calmag as well. Less is more. we're growing dope, not roses.
Thanks to Emmy, Chris, Bode, Jon George, all who have helped, i am thankful for you all.

 

[clrwatrtom]

Well i accomplished my previous mission. I lightly watered the af's around a qt each before i observed runoff. The whitewidow seems to be loving it as does the runt. I saw these on a few of the Fan leaves. Kinda looks like rust spots. Anyone? Anything to worry about? i just looked at these pics on my laptop and you can see the spots on the leaves really well. i'm anxious to find out what's going on. i'll get ready for lunch by loading the mighty and attempting to reward myself for all this work. i'm glad i don't have a job, prolly couldn't handle it.

Quick update. I used one of the sponsor's products today. The perfect pipe. I'm not a big smoker these days but if i want to taste flower with fire this thing is the shit. Cleans fast and easy. Fresh filter every bowl. Very nice piece and the girls seem to love it.

looks like a bit of a magnesium deficiency starting up.. a little bit of calmag will fix you up

 

[clrwatrtom]

Thanks Emmy so much. Jon actually guessed calmag two. Do u think i got them dry enough? Of course everything is subject to change. Right now i have the qb lite on full and veg only on the blurples viparspectras. Some mood lighting perhaps.

I see good lift... looks like you are doing well.
