Trala’s Tent

Haha ya I scrapped the last one. I know i should have just kept it but in the long run it was smart for me. I'm going with 6 this time instead of 3 hopeful to get at least 3 or 4 to germinate and I'll be completely happy if i get at least 1 female. This one will be ongoing for a while so you will have plenty of time to stop by for a laugh or two... I cant wait to see yours start to flower.. I will also be intently watching when you harvest since I've never ever gotten to that point.
 
I have forgotten how boring this part is and hope i have a sprout or 2 in the next few days.. I think i finally have measurements for how much i need in a cup of water... All the nutrients gets me confused
 
Thanks G!

I am fucking stoked with them! I can’t believe how much they have changed since their nutrients were tweaked. It was only two weeks ago that they were looking jaundiced and unwell. I’m a bit unsure about watering. Do I still make the plants my guide? I watered Twiggy today, as her pot weight was light, but the other two still felt full, so I didn’t water them.

The one outside isn’t well. But that clone did come off a really scraggy looking female.

Thanks for always keeping an eye out. I really appreciate it. :kiss:
Sounds like you have it sussed on the pots waterings as emilya has pointed out too. Good job. It is good to see them looking so healthy too. Natural green fingers.lol . It will be getting close to spotting those buds forming now i would imagine and stretch slowing down a little too. Which day are we in since flipping ?.
 
Look, I‘m basically a scientist now. I can definitely tell my left from my right.

I just need to establish just a couple things for me to formulate an accurate picture of what you are saying.

Now when it comes to the left and right you speak of, is it my right when I’m facing the tent front on, or my other right when I have my back to the tent.

:laughtwo: :laughtwo: :laughtwo:

Thanks. My pool boy is doing a night shift tonight. I’ll have him take a look tomorrow.

I have zero light leaks. How do I know this you ask? Well I took dark time so seriously that when turning the grow light off, I shut my side entrance door so it is black as night. For three nights running I ran straight into the wall/car/bamboo blinds when feeling around trying to find the door. I now leave the door ajar. I know it’s a 14 seconds of light leak danger, but I have a mortgage to pay, I can’t do that with a broken leg.

What’s with the port? You expecting your nana to pop into mine?
I love your responses T. Lol light leak for a few mins here and there won't harm them either . It is only if they get way too much leakage to know its night time.
 
I don't see any signs of sex, yet, which is a little odd at 10 days of 12/12. Usually, Id expect to see some pre-flowers, by now, but maybe it's just taking some time? :hmmmm:

Is the girl in question inside under 12/12 or one of your outside plants?
 
Ok when it comes to law, I’m from the generation where you never tell your right hand what your left hand is doing, and as far as secrets go, if one other person knows, that’s one too many. I guess that’s what draws me here, that sense of anonymity. No one outside my partner and son know about my tent, and frankly that’s two people too many.

So I’m wee walking my dogs, and my cray neighbour comes out and asks me to stand outside her garage and asks me if I can smell anything. Well I can, her breath for one, damp and really bad incense. So she calls me in to her house, now I know she smokes because we watched the police drag a fucking load of Xmas trees out of there prolly two years ago, and I have been known to get a bit off her.

Anyway she leads me to this side room, and all you can smell is weed, an unpleasant damp and essential oils, like not good ones, stinking ones. She pulls back this curtain and she has 8 plants in what look like 20cm pots, they are all sitting in mis fitting trays filled with dank water, there is what I can only describe as sticky tape strips hanging with what look like dead fruit flies stuck to it, and there are these tiny flies that are buzzing everywhere, her plants basically look like female prisoners of war. I mean they have buds all over them, but at what cost? She made me promise to tell her if I smell anything suss, and gave me a handful of damp bud.

Funny thing, all I wanted to say is “oh honey, you need to at the very least top them once they get 5 sets of growth points, I would personally quadline, maybe a little LST, you could maybe get a SOG happening, or even a SCROG, the options are endless. And girls hate wet cold feet, get em up off the tiles, and dry their poor feet, and why haven’t you uppotted? OMG clean their room up and for fuck sake, feed em” But I said nothing other than “thanks, I will”.

Only in straya mate!

I guess I have learned quite a bit since joining. :love: :love: :love:

And there you go !. I little research and question asking goes a long way to filling gaps. I love that your gaining confidence now and can tell a quad from a topping , sounds like she needs a real helpful neighbour to rescue her .lol nice to know what we are doing is staying in memory too. Can get a bit overwhelming when you learn on the fly. The nute elections and learning come from watching the plants and always keeping what goes into them as balanced as possible on ph. All those flies in her house and grow are being kept from yours so don't advise her too much. Lol

Oh Mr Krip , it has taken weeks to relax TraLa about hermies and you drop this one. Lol
Hope you have some good relaxation techniques to help undo that one ?. Lol
 
I didn't even know what day it was until my girlfriend told me haha i kept thinking it was Monday all morning even was about to get ready for work.
I think that's most of us now. I have to really think about it to even try to get the day correct. lol. I am hopeful of a yearly lock down for summer every year now

LOL! :rofl:

Just to be clear, I'm not suggesting it's a hermie, at all. I am questioning whether or not it's getting enough of a dark period to trigger flowering, though. ;)

Noooo, I can't deal with lockdown, I managed to a abide by the rules for the first few days but then my wife began blinking too loudly and the cat was almost certainly planning my untimely demise.
Even my plants got sick of my needy evening chats with them.

Mr Krip,,,The H word has been banned from this thread.
Please refrain from using it as I had the potential to induce utter chaos and panic :laugh:

Stir crazy comes to kind.lol. thankfully been a lifelong parent of toddlers and under 5's , tied to home so have developed skills that allow me to mentally kill them all in lots of ways and feel relief. The weed helps keep me pinned to the chair to avoid action. Lol
 
LOL! :rofl:

You mean you have moved on from hermit panic mongering to "light leak " alerts !!!! Do you work for the Govt Mr Krip , driving your fear and scare mongering of this innocent Aussie wall flower ??. Heehee.
 
I've always been a hermit... The world could shut down lol i hardly notice. It got me so close to getting my lady to move to a "farmier" type life... I work on being a minimalistic and self sufficient... Someday i wont ever buy fruits or veggies cuz I'll grow them!
 
Right, Tinkerbell, I'm all caught up.

Looking real nice, your indoor girls are getting big!
Really hoping your girls don't grow willies. Those things ruin everything
They sure do :rofl:

I KNEW IT!

I KNEWWWWWW ITTTTTTTTT!

This mob has been telling me not to panic, stay calm, they’re female, but I fucking knew this was going to happen! They‘re all going to herm because I kept torturing them at sleep time when they were in veg!

This place needs a cry motey!

😢 😢 😢

K why can’t I ever have nice uncomplicated things?!

The ones inside, exact 12 on 12 off

The one outside that has that Bart Simpson head type growth, sunrise 06:39, and sunset 17:05, I need my Rainman to work out the exact hours, but if I gestimate it’s like 13 and a half hours of dark time. If that is too much I will literally strap an LED light to my head and stand beside her for hours if it means she won’t herm.

Or is it already too late?

You do NOT need to worry about hermies, at this point and you're doing a great job! :bravo:

Assuming it's summer time where you are, the days will be getting shorter and, when they get short enough, it will trigger the outside plant to go into flower. If your inside plant is 12/12, it will start flowering soon. Usually, I see my plants showing sex in less than a week of 12/12 but yours may just be taking a little longer.

Of course, if any are autos, they'll just flower when they're ready regardless of light cycle.

Unless the genetics are prone to hermie, the only way you'll hermie the plant with light stress is if you interrupt the dark period during flower so it doesn't get its constant 12 hours of continuous dark. ;)
