Our Ongoing Grows

[CronicHempHog]

must be a miniature pinscher I got one of those he taught our husky how to make noise at every little thing too
sometimes theyre going nuts and im looking around but don't see anything
hes an old fart already tho about 11-12 yrs old his back legs are weak he cant see great he lost one eye
when the husky was in heat he just irritated her at the wrong moment and she took a bite and his eyeball was hanging out
took him to the vet and they couldn't do anything but remove it but hes still going hes always hacking too
when he gets excited he starts hacking and making noise trying to breathe
we take care of him best we can but we know hes getting old so were just doing what we can to keep him comfortable
after hes gone and the husky is gone were just gonna get a poi dog (mutt) and let him live outside
gonna raise him inside first away from anyone so he reacts to strangers.
anywho the plants are looking Awesome as usual NorCali I mean they are Beautiful what else is there to say

[SmokerJoe]

Welcome Dr. Bob. No sense in lurking jump in the waters fine. Drop in anytime. ...

Thanks all for stopping in Keepem Green

How can I not stop by when pics like that are the norm? Just awesome as always.
I like the way you label your pics, really makes things stand out. I may just have to figure out how to do the same.

 

[CronicHempHog]

theres a lot of Photo editors you can use Bob
you just cant edit them if your gonna enter them in any of the contests

 

[Buckshot]

Sweet!

Lester, you know the hard thing here is putting your plants out at the right time of year so they won't start flowering right off the bat. And then they go thru that reveg thing which really puts ALOT of leafage on the plants which in turn make plants subject-able to the molds that lurk here in the PNW..

I am in Southern WA, I had that same problem last year, put some plants out in mid May and they started budding then went reveg, what month/day do you normally wait to before moving plants outside? I figured middle of May would be late enough but guess not.

 

[Lester Freeman]

Some of my plants that I planted in March last year got sexually mature enough to flower hard before the June solstice, some plants didn't and the "reveg" factor didn't really come into play at all. For the ones that got into hard flower, I wouldn't want them to reveg so I just force flowered them. Turned out to work great. But if you didn't want things to take a chance on revegging than the best thing to do is plant or move plants outside basically right around June 1st (based on region).

That is why I expect to have my spring crop harvested by ~June, and the Fall crop planted then. Just depends on what you want to accomplish and make mother nature work for you Just my two cents.

I got 21 pages in and whew I think I will just start from the last 3 or 4 pages and go from there. I never heard of the strain cripit though but I will say you have nice plants. What are you using to grow in looks like rubbermaid containers or something. I was thinking of using the wide containers to put a row of 4 plants and have it 3 containers deep but I dont live in a house and so what I do have may have to all be cleaned up in a hurry. Right now I just use buckets that held 22 lbs of kitty litter. It doesnt have gallons on it so I actually dont know but I can grow 4 feet tall plants with no problems but I prefer short bush plants and work to that end anymore.

Thanks for looking in everyone. Yes Cronic them little rats bark at everything. Funny you have a Husky also, ours up and died acouple years back. They are great dogs, you just have to love hair. Hair everywhere. I mean they shed more hair than I do. And my hair is waving, waving goodbye.
Glad to have acouple new faces drop in. BTW Smoker, I only list my current grow. I have 4-5 I finished up. But to save on the confusion I only show my current grow. But I've been posting on grow sites for years. Even before 420 days. Nice to be able to show your grows without having to worry about someone local seeing and snagging your plants. Kick-ins are a scary thing and I'd hate to have to shoot someone or get shot, over some weeds. So now that the laws are letting up on weed, here really is the safest place to show out our plants. I used many a kitty litter bucket in the past. They make great pots but these are those 12X12" pots, store bought. I did like the Smart Pot's but as many plants as I grow I need reusables. They are pretty thin but at 3$ a pop I'll just replace as needed. I really like the strain Cripit. It's a Oregon strain from a outfit called Stoney Girls Gardens. The vendors do stretch the claims of flowering times and strength but all the hype aside it's still a good 'strong' herb with a good flowering time of 7 1/2 weeks. No need to tie her up or any of that. Unless you have tons of time, I totally understand just looking at the last couple pages, like I do. I look for pictures.
Thanks Buckshot. And welcome secOpz.
Good link Lester. You know you can start plant outside alittle earlier if you start from Seed. I can probably start them acouple weeks earlier from seed over a adult clone. But as you do know I need afew shade 'trees' out back come summer. I'm going to throw another Church out this year, hoping for another kilo plant.
CrawDaddy I'm going to shoot for end of May with any clones and acouple weeks earlier from seeds. Lester shot me this link, good call Les.

Ok well that's about it for the day. I did just cut a sample bud off the OG#1 she's at 53 days. I plan on hitting her heavy with some water tonight, and then in the next day or two I'll throw her into the closet for a extra 24 hours dark cycle. She's about completely cloudy with a touch of either side , clear/amber, trichomes. OG Kush'

and

Well thanks all for stopping in and looking. I hope alls gardens are doing great and Keepem Green

 

[SmokerJoe]

Your grow is lush and very green you should be proud. How do you get pictures of the trichomes like that. What zoom or type of camera do you use?

 

[CronicHempHog]

og Kush is a very good smoke
and Husky leaves hair all over the damn place your right lol its why she doesn't come in my room anymore her hair is all over the living room lol

 

[NorCaliwood]

Thanks Smoker. I've been using a Canon SX20 power shot. 12.1 megapixels. A lot of these shots are with the macro lens. You get a pretty good photo program with it. I'm a pc dummy but a lot of people can really throw some art work out with their photos.
CHH she has those DARK green sun leaves. I'm growing out 2 different venders OG's right now. Big difference between the two that's for sure. OG#2 is a short bushy plant with minimal stretch, and then OG#1 which doubled up while getting into flowering and is making some nice spears for flowers.. Not that she got over sized in fact she worked out beautifully as far as size finishing up about 3 1/2 feet. Yield isn't as good as some I've grown and better than others. I can see 5 oz's of the prime buds off her. We smoked a sample last night that was great seeing she was only 50 days in at the time of clipping it.
Hey Slim,,,, next time you read this, get ahold of me. Hope all going good out there.
I do have acouple new pictures to throw out there. First off is a new one. A Northern Lites variant. I didn't clone this or the Mango. I probably should've but I have a lot of new seeds to burn thru so.

And then the Mango strain'

Ok now the 2 variants of OG I'm playing with. OG#1'

and OG#2'

Well that's all from here for abit. Hope alls gardens are doing great out there. Keepem Green

 

[SmokerJoe]

Thank you for your answer. I will get a dedicated camera soon but for now I want to put any extra money into the lovely ladies. I do love cameras though.

 

[Dr Bob]

Great camera makes for great shots! Mine needs replacing too but I am also in a no new electronics situation. At least we can come here for fantastic images.

Been awhile since i have stopped thru to say hi. Just needed to bump this to the next page.

Hope you are doing well Norcaliwood. Consistentlly beautiful plants as always.

 

[CronicHempHog]

always looking good here NorCali

 

[NorCaliwood]

Well NOT always.... I done had my share plus afew others of bad luck. I lost my share of grows everyone knows. But thx. I try.I want to say this, I do go out and look thru others sites. I may not always post but I do look in. I love bud porn,and I jump thru alot of sites when I do. I know I should say more out there if not but for support. I wood say I'd get better, but I probably won't. And I hope friend all understand. Don't even asked me why this is a subject.
Isn't alot going on here. Cut my OG#1. 58 days under a 1500 watter seem pretty good product. Time will tell. Nice SOLID buddage. Well here's what she finnished up like. I do have another one and I do plan on throwing her into flower again. It's all a learning experience. So this first cut at 58 is just a signaling. Maybe she needs afew more days, or less. That will be determined by this one. OG KUSH#1,

Ok least get down to the meat of the bean,

and one more,

Ok now for the fun of it, I threw one of my BubbaXSkunks I started outdoors way early. And today we had a touch of hail. Not alot just abit but that's how early she is. I figure she jump into flower mode, and after afew weeks I'll either use a little light deprevation, or I'll bring her in to finish in abit before she gets a chance to jump into reveg mode. BubbaXSkunk,

She'll live with NP. If I was one to work on a strain, this wood be the way to make some seeds acclimated more so to Oregon. Seeds grow out like this get use to the climate. But I'm not sure if this ones male or female, 'yet'. Last one I grew was a good plant. Least good enough she got me to try again.
Well thats about it for now. Guess they did take the picture of my security guard and send her to off topic's. I guess I should've thrown a weed leaf in the back ground. Hey CHH here's a pic of the one .Dog. I use to have here,


I pulled that for way back from before Meka died and I think theres a pot leave somewhere in the pic. Oh well got to keep people on thier toes if there isn't. I hope all's gardens are green, and Keepem Green

 

[NorCaliwood]

Opps. this is the right picture. Oh well fire me. Oh BTW Paddies Day good day to say this,,,,,,, Keepem Green

 

[Dr Bob]

Nice! I know you stop by and check for bud shots and heck, isn't that a major reason we all keep hitting refresh? Beautiful shots again and love the garden guard dog.

Best wishes as always.
Bob
