OldMedMan's First Grow Couchlock 2009

OMM, i've been lurking here watching your amazing lady enjoy taking her time. If you harvest from the bottom up, wouldn't she count as half a plant?

Hi TigerI think you are right:grinjoint:
I have to admit I've thought of her as a half ass plant for a long time.:grinjoint:
 
:headbang:Listening to "The Greatest American Nightmare" followed by "Voodoo Child", man I love my playlist.

You sure have some nice choices there OMM, I vote you pick 3 tall ones and 3 short ones!!!!:smokin: HAHA, no clue which is which. But I know you do. You can see them ;).

How are you checking sex, just waiting til they show at 5-6 weeks?

I remember that seed special at Attitude. :grinjoint:

:peace: my friend from the mountains.

Mr High the second grow from now is the one for giants, will be growing two Africans and and 2 Afghani specials. Big sativa Strains. And a couple of short ones. Will take a long time to finish.

You got it on this one. Attitude specials. I am trying to grow quick finishers for this one. (OMM's famous last words) Growing so many strains will help me in my quest to find the one I like best.

This will be a straight forward grow. No pinching, no LST, no super cropping, no anything. Just water, nutes, and sun. Let em go!:cheertwo:

Yep, determining sex the old way, letting em show me. :grinjoint:

Just put "Voodoo Child" in an endless loop for me.:ganjamon:

:peace: From the Islands.
 
Dude, no way, I just got done listening to "Time", some Pink Floyd. And when "C'est La Vie" from ELP comes on.....wow, now those were good tunes, good times, good memories. Then a tune comes on from a painful memory I wouldn't unlive, but yeah I am sure you been there...the blues, "Love hurts" from Nazareth. Like I said I love my playlist, I need to get it up to 420 songs though.

:peace: my island friend and I am excited to see your new journal, you been taking pictures so you can show us babies on up? Or just slacking? :smokin:
 
I wish you the best w/ your grow, it reminds me not all that long ago i put up a wall in my basement and then got all the lights, fans, ect. and realized my wall was not in the right spot, i had to get an air flow in and out, anyway 3 days and 1300.00 dollars later i finaly got my rooms ready, and yes it beats chasing a bag and spending much more than i do now, good luck---------------misterman1961

Hi misterman1961 Thank You for the well wishes.;)

Oh! Man! That had to hurt;) No matter how well you plan.........opps!:smokin2::smokin2:

Your right, in the long run it is sooooo much better to grow your own.:rollit:
 
Nice selection OMM. I have one rocklock fem seed as one of the freebies from my seed order but can't grow it for a while. I'd be interested in seeing how that strain does. It's described as a couchlock strain, SHORT flowering time, heheh.
But you have to promise not to flower it for 5 months, lol.


heheh, keep us guessing.

Well, Buddy, I think rocklock will be one of the ones that I will grow for sure.
You know me and couchlock, got to have a least one.:grinjoint: You know, it's been since last July since I planted my first grow and I have forgotten just how long it takes for the babies to grow to a size good enough to be put outside. I have fans blowing on them to help get the stems tough enough to withstand these Hawaiian winds. So far the rocklock is the smallest of the lot. The Bubblelicious and the Papaya are the ones that are growing the best. The Strawberry is the most beautiful.

I promise not to flower them for 5 months. I promise!:yahoo:

I really relate to the painful music memories. Went though some years before I would listen to some of them. No more, bring on the good stuff. How did you know I love the "Blues"? :ganjamon: Got to get to 420 on the play list. I Love it. :bravo:

Sorry no pics. I have enough trouble keeping everything separate as it is. OMM's mind isn't what it once was. One thing at a time, for this old fart.:popcorn:

:peace: from the Islands.
 
G'day mate, Good news about the big/small plant thing. They must of heard me the other day.:grinjoint::bravo:
Jackie Jackie still hasn't turned up with the camera. Maybe your Polynesian mates got lost in the kanu.:rofl: I'm sure it'll turn up. It's got too many good vibes attached to go missing IMO. I've almost hit my new internet limit for the month but I'll try and keep regular contact.:peace::peace:

Damn Groover It's been 16 days. Can't trust those runners.:popcorn::popcorn: Surely it will get there soon. :smokin:
Yeah, thanks...6 plants is much better.:ganjamon:
New Internet limit? Bummer.:smokin2: I'll miss our daily contact, but some is better than none.:thumb:

OMM, heya brother. I friend read an article in hightimes about soil growing. It stated that it was easy, big producer, and easily reproduced. Use Promix HP and mix in Organicare Plus. I have seen the results of the Organicare Plus, plants were easily twice the size of cuttings planted at the same time. It says once the begin 12/12, to mix in the Organicare Bloom into the top inch or 2 of soil and water normally. We will give it a try this time around. Good luck with the new strains, sounds like a great variety to have. With all your newly aquired skills, you will rock this grow. PS...start building the support trellis now...lol.

Thanks GMT Good luck with the new soil. It really sounds good. I'll be nosing as usual to see what's happening. I hope it does what it did in the article. You two are the best in my book. I think I'll just buy two support
trellis now and be ready. :grinjoint:
 
It blows me away, all the things we can learn thanks to the computor age and so many good people to help us along, not mention root us on! I just joined this site and I love it, I did alittle out door growing late 70s --- early 80s, wow things have changed, take it easy, best wishes for you and yours------------misterman1961
 
OMM,
I hope your Bubblicious does better than mine did. The plant looked good but the bud was very light and airy. Hopefully growing it outside will make for better bud. The Strawberry Haze is an amazing plant and incredible smoke. It along with the Alaskan Ice will be a permenant part of every grow. The S/H was big inside. I bet outside it will be a monster. I think I netted a little over 6oz off of the two plants I had. So far 5 people have tried it and all loved it.
 
Alot of plants might not make 'Rock Hard' Buds. I know I have some here that never got tight. But people love that herb. I wonder if alot havent just got spoiled and foreget the end product is what you want. Hense making it good weed. Enjoy

Norcali,
I agree 100%. The smoke from the Bubblicious is just OK. I would give mine about a 5-1/2 to 6. The S/H on the other hand is more like an 8-1/2. I have both Bubbliciouc and Bubble Gum seeds left so I will grow them again however I will likely use them as lab experiments to see if I can make them better. They are also a real bitch to trim.

DB,
I sure hope it was a bad batch of seeds I got. I had big hopes for them and they fell short for sure. It could also be they didn't like the nutes I fed them. I think I will throw a couple outside to see how they do.

Blows me away too My Friend. Info right at our finger tips and plenty of help from good people. I'm a computer guy by trade and I once dreamed of places like this. A place where you can throw out a problem and as a group solve that problem. Here is is in first person. Guess that's why we all love 420.

Once you start a journal you really get the full impact of how much help and the good vibes people here have. Only if you don't listen will you have a problem. Glad you you have decided to join us.

Best to you too, our new friend. :peace:
