Smokerjoes 2nd Journal

[SmokeyMcFly]

Creative,energetic but not overpowering.I budwash so it wasnt harsh at all. In fact it was so mellow that I thought my bowl was clogged a few times until I exhaled a cloud of smoke. Very good and the pain in my knees and my back went away most of the times when I smoked.

Im not to diy but if something was explained well enough I could do it. My expertise is computers and politics so that doesnt serve me to well in the cannabis field.

Awesome can't complain with those results!

Im not a diyer either but I know there are lots of tutorials if you google diy carbon scrubber or something along those lines. Really not sure how much money it saves you since you need to buy the carbon and parts. It ends up costing me as much or more everytime I try and build things as it would to just buy them so these days I dont usually try to build shit anymore

 

[SmokerJoe]

Haha yeah if its to hard id rather just buy it. I dont mind paying a bit extra for that but when it comes to a pc I save like 2000 doing it all myself for the powerful systems I build.

Honestly, I have a bought and paid for carbon scrubber but it really isn't all that effective at taming the smell - I suppose a bigger fan in there might help but I'm not all that concerned about the smell anyhow. I just use a 250CFM fan and you can smell the beauties almost before coming in the front door

Hello everyone. Today I will be starting my mainline of 2 plants. 1 is the northern lights and the other is the mystery plant. I picked 2 plants that have 5 nodes growing their 6th. This is amazing growth for how young these plants are and the root systems are big enough for a speedy recovery. To mainline you prune all nodes and leaves down from the 5th or 6th node all the way to the 3rd node and top the 3rd. The next step is to clear everything under the 3rd node but I am going to leave the leaf intact for now to support further recovery.

Hope we're going to get some photos of this?

 

[SmokerJoe]

Hmm. But I wanted you to use your imagination

 

[SmokerJoe]

I will take a photo of it but actually I was going to wait to the normal photo time(day after tomorrow) but ok let me go take a picture.

 

[SmokerJoe]

Main lined mystery plant. All growth below 3rd node cleared except for leaves. So I cut out all nodes and in a few days will removed those as well as the healthy cotlydeons.

I took the tip cut off and put under a plastic cup flipped upside down for a humidity dome just to see if it would grow something. I really dont think it will because of how short the plant was with so many nodes but we will see.

 

[SmokerJoe]

The 2nd plant I intended to mainline I dont feel comfortable doing it yet until the 3rd node shows better. Its there but it isnt to the size where I feel ok taking all other nodes below it and above it off. If it doesnt come in within 2 or 3 days I will either choose a new plant to mainline or just train this one a different way.

I cloned a limb that was less than an inch long. Took three weeks to root, but she is a foot tall in flower now

 

[SmokerJoe]

3 weeks to root? How did you keep the limb alive and green? Doesnt it slowly die until the roots finally catch on?

In other news: The battle to stop smoking is still ongoing. For awhile we werent smoking anything but my girlfriend was getting increasingly aggressive and flat out annoying and so I told her if she is going to keep acting that way to just get a pack. This wasnt good for me since we had them I did smoke although only a half cigarette at a time and we would split the half. So that pack lasted us both 3 days and then she got another pack and that lasted 3 days. I told her that it isnt quitting if we keep buying smokes. She said she cant quit cold turkey like I can. I said dont let it have a hold on you like that. You are stronger then any addiction Ive ever met so just crush that shit. So she is still weening off them and I guess I am still smoking as well but at maybe 1/10th the rate I did previously. I really dont need to smoke and I want to quit but with her smoking right there in front of me it doesnt feel very nice. I guess I could just stop and having some cannabis to smoke instead would surely end cigarettes right off the bat. ( do have a bit of cannabis finally after months) 1.2 grams for a 20 spot and either my nose is clogged or it doesnt really smell like much but we will see later on tonight.

Been around a couple weeks just reading and soaking up info, but didn't sign up til today. just read through everything so far and I'm really liking what I'm seeing Joe

For others who may be interested, the reflective insulating stuff in Joe's room can be found at most home improvement stores in various widths... It's called Reflectix, and to put it simply, it's like bubble-wrap, but instead of being plain plastic, it's made of a pretty tough Mylar. I lined my cabinet with it for my upcoming grow. not as cheap as emergency blankets, but I think it's easier to work with and will last longer.

Hello garage grower. Welcome to the website. I feel honored that one of your first posts would be in my journal. Feel free to grab a seat. My previous journal also has a lot of great information. The link is in my signature

 

[Garage Grower]

Thanks... yeah I actually read through some of it over the last few days (LOTS of pages there). still have more to go, but I've got time.

Hay Joe, have you tried a vape for quitting ciggs. They do work and if you get the type that has refillable reservoir you can also make a thc oil that vapes in it from vegetable cellulose, vid on a popular video site. They do work and keeps you from actually smoking the chemical ridden tobacco that big tobacco sell's.

 

[SmokerJoe]

I dont care to vape in place of cigs.I dont believe in replacing one crutch with another. Im just gonna quit smoking whenever she is ready which should be soon im proud of the way she cut back. I am interest, however vaping cannabis

I cut it and got rooting powder in it, then threw it in a cup of water with a little bit of nutes in it. Changed the water once at three days and then refilled and left it alone. Had a tiny root pop out one day, and the root grew about a quarter inch every 8 hours. Once it was an inch long I transplanted it

 

[SmokerJoe]

Cool I will have to try that when I clone. This was my gf project just to see if anything happens. Its from the mystery plant. My gf thinks it was the Jamaican bagseed that sprang up but I cant be certain.

 

[PeytonManning]

Cajuncelt did a tutorial on cloning in perlite and 2 liter bottles, and I have 9 of 9 rooted this way. Even my flowering Strawberry blue rooted in 10 days, and it was only about two inches long. Flowering clones smell so good
