First Time Hydro!

Tammy looks wicked after her trim, hope she does well...

Babies have shown significant growth as well, great lst my friend.

Thanx for looking Doctor Dread,

Tammy is doing better I think and what the hell..
even if she dies now, I'll get some good smoke.
I just want her to frost up and ripen more because
I just haven't really grown fully matured bud yet.
My past 2 grows produced smoke which was very
good in my opinion, but I KNOW it would have been
MUCH better if I could have allowed them to mature.

As far as LST goes...imho, LST is a slow and continual process...
it doesn't really end until ya start flowering. That's how I have
learned to keep 'em short and squat. That's why Tammy is so dense.
I'm a big fan of LST and it most certainly gives ya more colas
in a smaller grow space. I am gonna try to get a little more height
on the babies than I did on Tammy.. lotta wasted space in the
flowering chamber because I kept her so short and flowered too
soon. I was anxious and excited ! The babies gotta grow a bit
taller than Tammy did before we see whether they are boys or girls. :grinjoint:


As always, any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Peace :roorrip:
 
Kinda the opposite of my girls. Mine are growing straight as sticks. My main colas are developing nicely, but there is no lateral growth at all.

You plants on the other hand, look delicious.
 
I just had to show ya pics from today !
Finally.. she's frosting up a bit ! YAY !

36 days 12/12 - 31 days since first flower

tomorrow, will post more then.

As always, any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Peace :roorrip:
 
Looking good there Mr. Run.... Now , be patient no early chop this time... Keep up the good work... You will be consuming her in no time...


SIR YES SIR !! Gunney Sgt. Be IRIE SIR ! :passitleft:


Peace :roorrip:
 
Thanx BubbaKush...

Gotta change the rez today..

I wish I could see the trichomes closer...just to see how they
are developing. The babies are looking good, altho the runt has
some weird looking light places on one set of leaves...I may have
splashed rez solution on it. Willo post more later...

And Be IRIE...just joking with the Gunney Sgt. thing..
I totally respect your opinions.. <3 ( Salute )

Pecae :roorrip:
 
Tammy should finish nicely, even if she doesnt look too good. I think youve just had the bad luck of really bad and unstable genetics. Like you said you believe it is the specific strain. The clones all look good.

Keep up the good work man!

Thanx StonerGrower and all....

The new plants , however, aren't clones. They were started from
seed I got from a pal of mine in N.Carolina that's been growing outdoors
for years with great success.
He always gives me a nice bag of bud every time he makes a harvest
and sometimes there are seeds in it, but it is always great smoke.
We've talked about what strain it is is, but frankly, he doesn't really
know as he's been growing from the same stock for years and he started
with seeds he got from a really good bag he bought a long time ago, heh.
He calls his very nice home grown herb "Swamp Grass" LOL , so
That's what these are gonna be called when I start the new thread for
them when they are ready for sexing :)

Anyway... Tammy is doing "OK" , the Swamp Grass is doing great !

I have a question.

When I DO decide to harvest this plant ,
How long do I need to flush and how ?
Just put clean water with no nutes in the rez ?

Any insight into the answer of that question ?

Tammy seems to be fading...the Swamp Grass is doing great.
Anyway..I'm still letting Tammy go as long as I can, but I would
like to get the swamp grass under the HPS asap. :|

Anyway...here's todays pics.

I've heard anywhere from a couple days to a week. I think this has been covered in a previous thread, but I'm havin a hard time finding it. Yes, just clean water with no nutes. ;-)

As far as when to harvest, I'm unsure, only because it does appear the she's fading fairly quickly. I'd hate to see all your hard work go to waste.

As for the rest of your plants, they look wonderful!
 
Thanx Ms.Fox...
yea...I looked about the site also about flushing Hydro,
but I just can't seem to find it. I'll keep looking.


Peace :roorrip:
 
Tammy looks like shes coming along nicely, although she doesn't look like shes hit that final stage of maturation(other than the yellow leaves...). I really dont think she looks that bad. Once her calyxes swell up a bit, those will be some chubby buds man.
She looks like your last premature crop you picked early. Similar in appearance, and not an overload of resin at the moment. Don't take this the wrong way, she looks wonderful. But the fact is in a week or so they will swell up significantly. Have you check the trics yet? That could give ya a better idea of how long you have.
Is there is any way for you to wait a couple weeks? I know the SG is gettin' big and you want them to flower, but you could finally see what this strain looks like at peak production! One last chance to determine if it was really worth the fuss in the end. I do think it is a good idea that you've moved on to the swamp grass. This other strain you have is nothin' but trouble!

Yeah flushing hydro is just running clean water instead of the normal nutes. A few days, a week, hell whatever you prefer...

Hang in there man! Dont give up quite yet... :grinjoint:
