Queen's Garden of Green

Hey welcome Msme, sure please join in by all means. I definitely love topping, usually top my plants a few times. I think that is why my lemon skunk and big bang was so bushy. I am always asking how does the widow do? So how is yours? Is it a big eater? What else does she like? I know each plant is different just trying to have something to go by. No, I still haven't thought about what to grow other than some peppers, what would you suggest?
 
so next week when the photographer gets back, I'll post apic in my journal. but it is growing very well. the ak48 is. there is a noticable difference almost every day hope its the same for you. the critical sensi star is also goin like gang busters. so when she gets a little bigger I'am going to give my hand a try at cloneing. do you have a ladder? if you do and its tall enough (I know you dont) maybe you could hang your light from it. or hell stack some boxes equal height up on each side and put a broom handle across and hang your light off that. just a suggestion:)
 
Fish, nope no ladder but those are some good ideas. Yeah, my ak seems to be doing good, still has to open up but she's a perky little sprout. If I could manage to clear out the closet closest to my room then I could put the light in there but am still going to need a long ass extension cord and surge protector. As there is only 2 sockets in my bedroom to run it from.

We got some green again! glad to see things underway QTL! Exciting to see the wonderful plants your gna come up with.

Aww, thanks Deege!!!! I am hoping this grow will be even better than the last. Actually, I know it will because my lemon skunk and big bang died due to moving, not any fault of mine. Hope to be trying a few new things with this grow as well, nothing major.
 
hope only for the best for you young lady:) you live in the city and me, not so much. so there is all kind of things laying around to get something together. my grow thing was made of some 2x4s and some hooks to hang the lights. maybe you can do something like that. like a aframe you know like a swing set might cost 25$ you can get saw horse adapters and make it a 7' tall saw horse. yeah then you can hang your light from there till you get setup :)

I'm doing the high brix thing & not feeding the plants in the traditional way so I can't really comment on how the WW would respond to regular nutes. I've made lots of changes to her routine since I planted her...went to high brix & GLR lighting about 5 weeks in and shes tolerated everything very well. I have a Buddha Tahoe who twists up her leaves if I even look at her wrong...lol. As for the garden...plant what you like there's always a way. Upside down tomatoes, smaller containers, etc. You may have to sacrifice a bit on yield but better to get a little of what you like than a lot of what you don't!!!!!

:peace:
 
just doing a drive by limited time will read more tomorrow

Awww, thanks Fish. That sounds great but the problem right now for me is money. There is a back story so I will explain. I have called a fair hearing against the program that pays part of my rent. There are a lot of shady things going on, for instance, my new apartment and my old apartment rent are the same yet they have increased my portion of the rent. With the increase, it leaves me very little left over to pay my bills. Also, when you move, they're suppose to pay the first month's rent and security. For some reason I still ended up having to pay a portion of this month's rent. It has been a lot of issues with these people even when I lived in my old apartment.

Oh I see a lot of people are getting into the brix thing, sounds cool. Once I get my set up more organized I would like to try the GLR lighting too. As for the garden, I don't have a yard so not sure what I can grow indoors. I have heard some people say peppers, tomatoes and herbs. I am all for the peppers, I love spicy food though I have calmed down a bit on it since the bf has stomach issues. But I am really into veggies.


Well, I haven't been mentioning the plants lately because there hasn't been any changes. The beginning of a grow always seems to start out slow then gain momentum. I didn't check the church or blackjack to see if they have popped yet but I will a little later. It's been raining the past few days so I have kept them in the house, didn't want them to drown if I would've left them outside.
 
While out grocery shopping, I picked up some distilled water since everyone says it is good for the plants. They still have tap water too that has been sitting out. The church and bj still didn't pop so I tried to sand them down a bit with my emery board then moistened them back up with some distilled water. I also gave the sprouts some too, they're getting a little taller. I will prolly post some pics over the weekend.
 
I've been playing in the dirt all morning :yummy:
Pulled the widow out & looked her over real well. I've gotta say she's the one responding best to the topping & LST... new growth EVERYWHERE!!!!

Life is good :surf:

I am liking this ak, it is now the tallest of all the sprouts. I am also liking the short flowering time so I am definitely gonna clone it when it gets older. All the plants have gotten taller, the ak just passed them is all. I don't have anything dialed to be honest but it seems like they like the fire escape. I will be glad when I do finally be able to get it all together.

Well, the church and bj still haven't done jack and I am beyond frustrated. Soooooo, I decided to germ another church and the black diesel. Since the other diesel is doing so well, I am hoping this one will too. I am going to have to go to my bean wish list soon because I have 4 good strains left....

In the meantime in between time, I guess I will talk about what I mentioned in OMM's thread about the rat I married. OMM has started a trend with the sharing of one's experiences during a journal. So, I figured why not, it's something to pass the time til I have something worthy to mention about this grow...

The backstory on how I met the rat, through a mutual friend. He wasn't from my home town so to me that was definitely a plus. Where I am from, it's a small city where everybody just about knows every body. I guess because he seemed different could of been one of the main reasons why I was attracted to him. Also, he looked like Suge Knight just to give you a visual of what he looks like. If you don't know who Suge Knight is, well he was the founder of Death Row Records and also known to be gang affiliated with the gang, the Bloods. Though not proven, also believed to be connected or ordered the hit on Tupac.

Back to the story, rat was sweet at first, the perfect gentleman, knew all the right things to say. He eventually ended up moving in with me. We had the honeymoon period for about a few months then due to a health issue I had, he started to become very bitter and mean. He would say nasty things to me like I am rotten in the inside. After awhile I learned to tune it out all but I guess he caught on to that because that is when he started getting physical. But he was good at leaving bruises on me where they couldn't be seen. And I never said a word to anyone about it........How's that for a cliff hanger?
 
yea the buttholes are usually the ones who know what to say and how to make you feel soo good that you just miss out on the real nice guys
seriously think about it...............
 
I got 4 fingers grasping the rock. please keep it comming queen. I used to be a sob, hell I'm probably still one, verbaly that is.if I ever hit a woman my mother would rise from her grave and drag me down with her but I know that words can hurt just as much:) I like the story tellin tho so keep it comming:thumb:

You are absolutely right about that. But there was something wrong with me because every relationship with the exception of 2 have all been bad. That took a real toll on me mentally for a long time, made me feel like I was meant to be alone. So I took on the role of being single and independent. That is where some of the flings I had came in.

Thanks, I am glad you like it. Back in the day I use to be a bit stuck up and very popular in my hometown. Not popular in a sexual sense but that I use to dj at a few places and on the college radio station. I was well known. But that is another story for another time.....
 
Moving on with the story.....Wouldn't you know what happens in the dark always ends up coming into the light. The day started out good but quickly changed, we had another one of our fights. I should say his fight because I was always trying to defend myself even though this man was almost 3 times my size. I can't remember what set it off, I just remember it began in the bedroom. It started with an all out verbal assault on me that always ended up with your rotten on the inside. The next thing I knew he had me pinned on the bed, choking the hell out of me. I didn't black out though, with all I had left in me, I kicked him in the nuts. Caught my breath and jumped out of the bed. At that same time, there was a knock on my front door. It was like being saved by the bell, at least for the moment. I ran to the door, threw it open and to my surprise it was my parents. I forgot to mention, I was topless when I opened the door, rat had ripped my shirt off me while we were fighting on the bed.....

More later...
