Flower Child's First Grow: Seeds- Soil- MH-HPS Sun- 2013

[Flower Child]

Wow! I slept in after a very long day yesterday. Had to spend the entire day with my stuffy sisters (who are still apalled that amendment 64 passed:icon_roll). And then last nite was watering nite too and I wound up having to scrub the tent down. You see, I think I found the source of the fungus gnats in the tent- there were a few crawling around in a wet spot under a pot. I think they are living in the molasses residue that was on the floor. My Bad. Soooo all the girls came out of the tent, it was wiped down and the floor liner was scrubbed in the bathtub. If that doesn't take care of them there's also the Captain Jacks on its way!
Today there's nothing on the agenda but and so hopefully I can relax and catch up on journals.
Have a great day all!

Thanks Backpackin, I had a blast on the paddle board. Didn't spend a whole lot of time "standing" on the board however, as my daughter decided to take her kayak too, so she could practice her rolls. That meant my board was the only flat place for our dogs to climb on when they needed to take a break from swimming. Two big labs and a chihuahua climbing on and off every few minutes meant I spent most of my time trying not to capsize!

Good weed Young Lady

Good weed to you too fish cake!
Hey I have a question for you. My girls that look closest to done have pretty much stopped maturing- instead they are foxtailing like crazy. Do you think trying a diminishing light schedule would get them back on track ripening? Date wise they could be done as soon as this week but they seem to be stuck in limbo right now.

I doubt you have enough time left with your girls to make DLS have any effect. just watch your trichs and forget the fox tails

I love my chihuahua she thinks she is eight feet tall

Thanks fish cake -i was afraid it was too late for the light to make any difference -oh well.
My chihuahua thinks he's a big dog too- always trying to convince the labs that he's the alpha-LOL!

 

[Backpackin420]

Captain Jacks on its way!

I picked me up a bottle at Home Depot and used it on all my plants with one spray getting all the under leaves good. I think it worked! I have not had bugs since.

Sweet dog btw! I have a Boston Terrier, love that little sucker.

HD carries Captain Jacks? I tried both local grow shops and they didn't carry it so I wound up ordering from amazon- never thought to try home depot! Oh well.

They do look loveable- and very spoiled!

a lot

Agreed

I took some pics of my green pets last nite too. Several plants seem to be in limbo and I think i know why- that defoliation I did the other night must have shocked them.

Heres the bronzed bomb that is busy foxtailing now.

The following pics are all pineapples and they are finally starting to fill in. Even the one who's buds were all leaf is starting to fill in with pistils and actual bud formation

This pineapple has the wierdest shaped cola ever

And a group shot of all of them after a drink of molasses and water.

Have a great day everyone!

Hey Dharma, thanks for the reps. Only two of the dogs are mine, Beans is my daughters dog- my granddog LOL. The lab mixes are pretty well trained- only one that routinely gets into trouble is little Tunes.

Thanks for the reps Spimp! Both of the main colas on that plant look wierd- the other one looks like its trying to give me the finger

Nice job FC!

Thanks Mcloadie- I'll be happy if I get a fraction of the harvest you have right now!

 

[Harley001]

Good morning and good weed Flower your grow is doin fine you're gonna have a lot of bud when you harvest SWEET!!!!!!!

Thanks Harley and good weed to you too! "When" I harvest is my quandry right now. Date wise I thought they'd be coming down this week but the tricomes tell a different story. Only one plant has any ambers (a total of 4) and those are on lower buds. Her top colas have so much crazy new foxtailing- guess she's just not ready to say goodby yet.

Watering has become a time consuming event. It takes me about 2 hours, cause each one has to come out of the tent and get a good exam for nanners, bugs, and ambers. Well OK, 2 1/2 hours cause theres a lot of too.
Sure wish they'd hurry up- I'm starting to get impatient.
