Depends on the activity bud, its not all about just getting baked. I may have a low tolerance but I think im older and wiser, aka been around the block once or twice more than you... On Saturday we ate brownies, round 30-40 mg each, shared a Haze / Candyland/ scissor hash joint, and vaped during our 2 hour frisbee sesh.

Im not talkin bout a beach game of catch, we throw the disc 50-60 yards easy, runnin & jumpin, we throw 4-5 days a week.

Your prolly right about the hash, the directions said ‘not a dry herb vape.’ It also said i’d need to change the heater element frequently, but thats only for wax.

lol i guess I'm a real lightweight age thats more than ill do in a day i vape all day long starting around 5am till bed but in small amounts i do get high and occasionally ill hit a good one and cough my head off,also a couple cocktails in the evening kicks things along to,but your rite it does matter what your involved with!

The kind pen gives you great flavor yea.. no offense but ya seem like a light weight. Id smoke a vape too but the damn thing doesnt get me stoned. Was excited to get mine but not much effect from it. You seem like you grow enough plants to have enough product. Especially if you dont smoke that much lol. Not really sure about hash.. it can have plant material in it so id say no. It would heat up too much in the chamber. Those coils are easy to change out. Should be instructions with the pen. CBD oil would be great for pain and sleep. Smoke it all buddy haha. ....

Ususally we'll hit the bong, joint, pipe, whatev, then grab the vape and get that nice full terp hit! Get the high feeling and chasing with that great flavor. Kinda like doing shots... You know, Tequila with a beer chaser! That was you wasn't it, drinking all that tequila the other day?

And I don't mind being a light weight, just means that my little harvests last me a little longer. I hook people up all the time too though. Gave my pool guy a 1/8 the other day. He about fell over when I handed it to him!!!! He was trippin, like "WTF!?!?!?!?!?!" He'd prolly never seen some nice ass buds like the ones I handed him. With like 3 months cure. I told him don't smoke it at work... But hey maybe he's not a lightweight... Just kiddin Toast!

i like the way you put that i do shots of tequilla and drink a beer with it or just water and shots 4-5 shots 2 beers I'm half looped lol,hell lets you toast and i get together and get screwed up are you in toast!:)
 
Sorry guys being high is what gets me through the day.. cant focus on shit and am anxious as hell when im not stoned. Really fucks with my head if i smoke and dont get stoned. Major headaches and the lot. Like if i smoke some crappy bud my head can explode in pain. THC really just helps me function normally no matter what i am doing. I understand its not for everyone all the time. I actually quit drinking, had my last drink xmas eve. Feeling so much better. Just weed and coffee for me lol. ....

It's cool man, we all got our own thing we gotta deal with. Now that you've shared some back story I get it. Why you gotta be stoned that is.

Just a few shot's I've been working on.

I'm getting real close with the older girls. I think the Candies are both gonna get the chop within the next week or so, still just going by trichs, they've been on straight water for about 10 days, but I remember SnarlyWeeds used to say he gave them Terp with every feed/ water. Cinderella is gonna get cut close to mid Feb, but I can already see her starting to swell, those tippy tops are starting to fatten and even foxtail a little. The toughest part for me is knowin that she's CBD, she'll be making some potent gummies!

I've just put three more into flower as well an 818, and Candyland, and a mystery Haze. I'm 95% sure it's a Haze Ex or it could be BB, I used my bubble cloner and just kinda threw cuttings in there with no label. So far the Haze Ex is the only male seeds I've popped, so it could be a Male or Female Haze Ex or a Blue Berry. I'm looking at the leaf structure though and it seems a bit more Sativa to me. Also been looking at the branching and it's very stout, the plant is a real bush, if it goes female I might throw it outside.

So Cal Weather update, it's unseasonably warm which means I'm getting mid to low 80 days and 40ish evening temps, sounds about perfect 12/12 to me!

Don't forget I got those nice specimens outside who just threw hairs on the 14th-25th.

Guess I owe y'all some pics to go with the update...
 
Appropriately I'll open with a seedling shot. I've got 13 solo cups that look a lot like this one, although this is one of the bigger ones. The Haze X & BB Cross (both CKS).

Here's a wider view of the Veg Tent. All 13 cups, and a number of 818 & Candyland.

Next up is a picture of the "I'm not sure what this one is..." maybe a haze x maybe a boy maybe a girl. You get the idea.

You can't come by the Emerald City without seeing Super Girl!

Here is Cinderella, I can't believe she's still got 3 weeks to go, she really is fattening up. Like a Turkey for November!

And Finally a shot of some Candyland just a week after showing. I've got some 818 in there too, they look the same.

The outdoor girls are cruising along, they're a bit taller so not as easy to move around the yard. I've got short walls a tall neighbors...

I guess I owe y'all some more pictures!

You know guys, I've really been focusing on the photography lately, so much so that I've almost gone into an auto pilot mode with regard to the plants. That's a good thing, I'm the kinda guy who can think too much and then try to control everything. That's a perfect mentality for photography but with plants, kids, and pets it can be a killer. Anyhow, I focus on photography and let mother nature handle the plants, I just throw a little food and water down, she can do the rest.

Question for the group: Recently, I've pulled two dead sticks from different sized pots and the rootball was basically the same for both plants. That would be great if they were filling the grow space (Root ball filling the container), but the rootball is actually holding so tight in the shape of the smaller container that it hasn't filled the new pot size.

Do the plants stop root expansion and growth when the flower cycle starts because the plant is focused on flower production?
 
Damn!!! Those are freaking amazing...I would be speechless except I just copied a post I meant to share with you but accidentally typed in the wrong place lol.
here is that:

Hey Age, I have been reading some books on botany, one specifically on MJ as well watching some university videos on YouTube (perfect for chores or driving since it's just a speaker) and I will tell you what, this one article sums up literally hundreds of pages. I'm sure that you are familiar with most of these concepts or are learning as I am just now but hope that you get something from it! I'm going to pin it on my own journal. Breeding programs | Cannabis Culture btw I have some books if you are ever interested, PM.

Gotta say it again brother those are some of the most gorgeous plants and I know what the CandyLand can do to me...(trying not to drool on myself)
 
Great Question! I have the same.
I was told, or read that shortly after flower starts the roots slow to a crawl. Barely growing anymore.

However, if you look at my autoflower thread I transplanted well into flower and that girl stuffed 3gallons MORE coco (was in ~2gallons and needed 4 waters a day (rootbound)

So...Is this an autoflower trait or do some strains stop root growth in flower?

Great read on Breeding, im starting with stabilized genetics, i hope. Therefore, im already at the in breeding part.



Anybody know the answer to the questions about roots. As well as auto flowers?
 
Well I got an answer from Red Rooster over on Toasts Journal. The roots growth slows dramatically after stretch.

Now, onto today's news. Super Girl is Dead!!! I can't stand a chick whose got bugs in her britches. Imagine walking in to survey your favorite plant ever and you see this...

I stopped everything I had planned today to get some quick pics and chop this girl. I wish I could have taken more time with the shoot, but I'm sure y'all understand, I didn't want whatever it was to have much more time to F--K up the garden. I got too much good stuff happening to sacrifice everything for one girl, I've already done that 4 times... A story for another time.

Anyways, hopefully I'm ahead of the game on this. I've sufficiently drown super girls parts in H2O2 for several minutes and then rinsed, in fact they are still soaking.

FUCKIN BUGS!

It's a good thing I've been treating my plants at least every other feed/ water. I'm not sure if any other plants will have the bugs, but I've treated all the girls in flower and I'm not sure if I wanna chop the other Candyland yet. She is so primo.

More pics later y'all, I'm kinda busy right now....

Have a great day everybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!
