McLoadie's Third Grow Journal

[Richard Richardson]

Good thinking, but a plant is not a garden hose.

A plant is like a really small, slow jet engine.

Suck, burn, spit, suck, burn, spit...etc.

It sucks up water and spits it out at the top, establishing a "PULL" at the roots.

Be gentle and treat her like a lady and you can supercrop at any stage.

Just my 2eurocents

Right on ricorico, everything I do I try to establish the "best possible scenario"..........I can do wheelies and jumps on my road king, but I don't recommend it! On my journals...and life in general, I try to illustrate why I do what I do, so hopefully someone gains some fruitful knowledge.............if not by what I do that's correct, then by what I may do that's contrary! Yes, you can supercrop at any time, but under certain conditions the incidence of detrimental effect will increase or decrease.....he who stresses and damages their plants the least...wins!

 

[Richard Richardson]

True.

I learned more by falling down than I ever did from walking.

You've seen it on the charts, here it is on mcloadies weed plant. This is interveinal chlorosis, generally interpreted as a lack of available nitrogen, or the lack of ability of the plant to properly metabolize it. This is the ONLY leaf on the whole plant like this, why?, who knows, it was just a perfect picture of an N deficiency and I thought I'd share it!

 

[Richard Richardson]

I watch the stems, not the leaves.

The stems turn purple when they have a nute deficiency before you see anything on the leaves.

Those purple stems are genetic....it's a purple plant, I've grown a few of em, I've got 3 people growin em now.......LOL....they're all just purple.

 

[Richard Richardson]

Cool!

I grew a seed from bright-green grass last year.

It grew bright green until late summer and then turned completely purple.

Tasted like purple haze from 15 years ago!

Good weed McLoadie!
Regarding supercropping - I think it might be easier to find the 'sweet spot' when the plant is full of water. When thay are drying out, for me its hard to tell when they snapped or broke.
There is much bigger difference in required foce to snap or to break when it's wet.

Curious what others think..

Otherwise best wishes

All done with the gig bro....best smoke I ever did.......everything was stellar!

I wouldn't say that one affected leaf was a deficiency, this plant is four feet tall and that's the only blemish on it, I just wanted to show what interveinal chlorosis looked like in a photo, in my jounals what you see is what you get...lol.....I don't pick leaves off to take pics, this is exactly how my plants are growin and lookin..............I'll post pics of the beauty tomorrow at lights on....

im the same way, i prefer to leave it how it is for pics for record keeping's sake it educational and informational for me and may help a fellow grower solve a problem, its a journal after all, if i was keeping a personal account diary i would not edit out the shitty days and feelings so why do it here?

Tomorrow I lower the hps, it will be at around 18" then, anybody see anything wrong with 18"?

I have some tops less then 18" distance now, temps are between 82 - 93F usually and the girls do not complain.

I'm not sure what fish means with better PAR at longer distances though. I always assumed a constant spectra and that means closer is better as long as heat is manageable.

Care to elaborate on this Sir? Tried google but it didn't help


Oh and your horse is awesome o,O praise JC!
girls too..!

Oh yeah He loves us Rico, He loves us so much He died for us so He could be with us forever.....I can't quite wrap my mind around the whole idea, but I can see what the wind blows and that's enough for me to surrender!
