InTheShed Grows Inside & Out: Jump In Any Time

At night, rave near the guards apartment naked with a blue light.
It's so cool when someone with a sense of humor sees an opportunity and grabs it! It's an image you will always have in your head. I wonder if someone saved that sign!
Well its mag you want out of your bud.
Shed I think dabs is saying flush out magnesium bro
Last few weeks calcium and potassium all needed really
Oh thanks Joe! I still wonder if it's been proven that flushing magnesium from the buds is possible.
Hey Shed ! Thanks for the info on the rapid rooters! Hope you are off to a good start for your Monday! Happy days my friend!
Thanks, you too Dutch!
Thanks for putting the troll in his place. He needed that. Or maybe it was me who needed it.
:)

@TheMadDabber still hasn't told me if he wants me to cut the stems shorter in the cloninator. Some of them don't reach the bottoms of the netpot though...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to the working week (except those in retail)! Let us begin with some photographs of the Treacle family...

Blue Treacle 1 (formerly aka "Freacle") on day 37. I'm hoping for some stretch as it's only about 12" tall!:

And BT2 on day 11. Still getting distilled water because it looks fine and the cotyledons are still green. Next time I water the AK and Sour G clones though I will dilute some and give this one a taste of nutes:


I'm probably going to train this one but I'm going to wait until it's taller before I flatten it. I think the ones I started short stayed too close to the soil, preventing air circulation and making it hard to neem the lower branches.

While we're looking at the young ones, here is Peyote Critical on day 7:


And because who doesn't love an inverse sand castle, here is the up-pot of the lavender that rooted after two months in the cloninator:



Per bobrown, I did not score the roots! After it fills this pot with roots it goes in the ground.

That's what I've got today. I hope everyone had a great weekend and is easing back into work gently.
:peace:
 
I wonder if someone saved that sign!
I always wondered that too! There ended up being a few versions but the first on had some cartooning skill, by memory. It was long before mobile phones so no pics... today it would be all over the internet and prolly wouldn’t be funny anymore (meem saturation), or everyone would think it fake, or something.
except those in retail)!

My 2 former industries. Monday’s and Tuesday’s were the quiet days.

Oh true! I'll start a list ;).
Nice update! They all look great:) PC is looking vigorous
Thanks newty! I'm liking the feeling of growing photo plants, where I can take as long as I want and not sweat the race against the clock. Looking at the PC is like looking at any other plant...it will grow as it wants to. Looking at autos has become a bit more stress-inducing :confused:. Maybe I just need some 110 day autos again.
 
That first plant in your pictures is a little gal. I see it all the time here and wonder how in the hell but I guess somethimes it just happens.
It had a strange start in life and I almost tossed it out. The sprout came out of the top of the peat but the tap root never showed and never showed. Finally after a few days I figured I might as well get it outside in case it finally grows. It started flowering at 26 days, though it is supposed to be a short cycle auto. We'll see and get to compare this one to the younger one that had a tap root like normal!
 
Just doing a drive by.. Starts are looking great Shed... GL with the Blue T.

Hope you don't mind my little 2 cents...
I did alittle reading and seen talk about germination... I know thats dangerous,, me reading bit and pieces,, so if this is repeating something said... Sorry

But I use paper towels myself for seed starting. I don't soak them, but I know alot do and they have great results too. After you wet the whole thing hold the plate on it's side till all the water drops stop draining,, don't keep to wet or they drown. But once the water stops draining from the paper towel, cover with plastic wrap.

Temps come into play again. I use my cable box as a heat source. But then I have one of the digital thermometers and I keep the plate as close to 80 as I can. If it's a tad hot,, I place a book under it. If it's a tad cool,, place the book ontop the plate and that will raise it one or two degrees. Come winter time,, I use a grow light hood with acouple books under it or whatever it takes. Anything to keep from turning my seeds into popcorn. 90 degrees will make popcorn out of them.

And if you have old seed,,,, scuff them up with sandpaper. I have a matchbox with sandpaper in it. I put the seed in and shake it abit to score the seed's shell up abit.

Hope alls gardens are growing great Keepem Green

Thanks Norcali! I've gotten pretty close to what you describe for my seeds. I have a mini-altoid tin with sandpaper inside (I used to use a matchbox but twice the seed flew out never to be seen again:oops:). And I bowl-soak until the seed splits. I keep the the bowl in a box for darkness and I keep it warm either in the sun or next to the DVR where it's around 78º. On top of the DVR it's over 90! I used to drop in peat after it split but Penny convinced me to go paper towel in a baggie. Not wet, like you said...damp. I had a one inch tail on the Peyote Critical when I planted it so at least that seed liked the technique!

All looks great Shed! Hopefully you are having a great day :)
Thanks Mi, all is quiet on the Western front. That's a good thing :). I hope the midwest is treating you right.
 
I think the common theme here is heat along with the moisture. I bought a Vivo sun mat with a thermostat and the time to germinate went down and the percentage of success went way up at least to the tap root emerging. That is one purchase I would buy again in a heart beat. Now I have been able to kill one or two after the tap root is out but that is a different story.
 
All's well here. Closed on the new house. Trying to get one ready for market and working on the new house getting ready to move in. Hopefully it will be my last time moving. I'd forgotten what a pia it is. When I get settled in I'll fire up my garden. I'll have to dig out my old tent. Hopefully the mice haven't been living in it. Lol
