Grand Daddy Black Grows A Stack

I agree!

Plants that are bursting with health really do make my heart sing.

Thanks Ms. T.

Always nice to have you stop by!

Big smiling

I had a sneaky suspicion that it was! Thanks for the confirmation, Krissi!

I thought so, too but said what the H

As for the news, I can't help myself. I'm a self-confessed news junkie. No matter how bad it gets, I keep watching!

You and TK should be friends, I woke up listening to the shooting drama with the cops waiting for backup and tasering the parents...like man, what a stressful way to start the day!

Thanks for complimenting the clones.

Well. It's necessary, they're beautiful

Well bent!

I don't really feel like devoting a bunch of time to training these girls. But bending them a bit more everyday and moving ties, I can handle.

Excellent lesson in self-delusion.

Maybe because the light is turned down so low they're able to retain moisture for longer than they usually would.

100%! Slowing down the growth slows down the water usage. It's one of the methods I use to slow down my mother plants when I'm not in the mood to root-prune.

Hello growers.

I've given the Clones the green light on Dot Day 16! Having bent 3 of the 4, I think I now have sufficient time to allow them to grow and keep them in the tent.

This morning I watered them all to run-off with plain water (meant to add SNS 209 but forgot). The MC plant was fed with 4.6g of MC.

I've been unable to decide what to do with the un-bent small Black Cherry clone (front right). So I decided to try something new and do nothing. I'm just going to let her grow however she likes!

I turned the light back up from 50% to 75%. In order to adhere to the GrowDots release schedule, I will flip these in 12 days, on Dot Day 28.

Thanks for looking in and thanks for the feedback:

Think about how stressful it was for the tased parents!

Excellent lesson in self-delusion.

Whatever do you mean?

This is going to be easy. I may not get optimum results but, hell, I'm used to that!

PEACE.

A day of excellent decisions. Might want to quit while you're ahead though!

You've got me in stitches over here!

I agree. Take the rest of the day off! Hell, it's a long weekend, take the rest off as well!

 

[Grand Daddy Black]

I agree. Take the test of the day off! Hell, it's a long weekend, take the rest off as well!

I'm retired Azimuth.

I vaguely remember the phrase "long weekend", but please refresh me on the concept!

That's where most people go sit in their cars on the interstate highway and lament the fact that for some reason all those other people had the same idea to go someplace far away on that exact day. Weird.

Hello growers.

It's Dot Day 17 for the Clones.

Since they've been given a good amount of water and the light has been turned back up to 75%, the girls have perked up. It's now just a race against time. I need to get them out of the 2x2 as soon as possible. The warmer it gets here, the hotter it gets in the room with the 2x2, and I have no good way to mitigate the high temps in there.

Have a wonderful Sunday!

As always, thanks for your attention.

Peace.

Hello growers.

It's Dot Day 19 for the Clones.

I really want these Grow Dots to work for me so I'm probably overthinking this process! However, if these things work it will be like finding the "lazy grail"!

From the Realgrower's website:

Adding water activates your Grow Dots so they start releasing their nutrients. Moisture is the “On/Off” switch. Temperature controls how much they release.

And this:

For strong vegetative growth, Grow Dots release 75% of their Nitrogen in the first 4 weeks.
Then, they transition to a Phosphorus and Potassium dominant “Bloom Formula”.

I'm wondering what this means for me since, to the extent possible, I have deprived these plants of water over the last week or so in an effort to briefly stall their growth. Have I extended the time period over which the Nitrogen will be released? (In other words, is my "Dot Day 19" more like a Dot Day 10?) And if yes, what if I flip them after 4 weeks, on day 28, when there remains plenty of N to be released? What does that mean for the plants' development?

@DeeBoy, you have any thoughts on this?

The one front right is on MC. The remainder are on Grow Dots.

Thanks for looking in.

Peace.

Haha, "The Lazy Grail" Geoflora did that for me. Dots should for you! I'm thinking of trying some too!

Go for it Stone!

I'd love to see them in more capable hands than mine!

I too like Geoflora. But I think it stinks. And I mean that literally!

Thanks for being the tester on this. The rest of us will watch and learn from your experiment.

I think you are just too stoned and overthinking the dots…

You standing in for @Azimuth, Boo?

He's said 2 nice things in a row to me. I know he put you up to this!

No, seriously, you are right! I am stoned while trying to "connect the dots" and all kinds of thoughts are poppin'!

There is such thing as a quota. Just sayin'

 

[StoneOtter]

Geoflora has a stank to it too. Only when it's wet.
