Trala's Tent: Sponsors, Sparkles & Serendipity

Got you a poolside pic from today. I moved her in the shade after lunch coz she looked fried! Hope I can make her sing. Otherwise this journals gonna be cringe lolling.

Here she is yesterday, one day older and one day wiser. I got a root shot coz I know some of you weirdos gag over root shots lol.

I tried to get a ratio shot too. I remember a poster telling me while some plants in here look huge, they are in fact small and compact. That’s a standard wine bottle. Shes still being fed the top water of my unshaken Mega Crop mix. It would be weak coz the MC has settled on the bottom of my milk jugs.

Oooooh yeahhhh!

Looking solid Tra!

I uppotted today. Not because her roots needed it, but because I needed space to train. I don’t top my plants, I try and train them low to give the illusion of a Carcanopy which I simply can’t do using Carcass’s method. My plants get too leggy.

The other thing I do, I always water my soil mix with nutes before I uppot. I like the soil nice and wet for the new roots.

I train in a coil like shape so I always plant super off centre. The centre of the stalk my plants is always an illusion. My main stem is always to the side.

Happy Humpday!!!
She’s still a baby but is a tiny bit less boring. As you can see she is on the curve. I am growing in 100% coco. I think coco can be as easy or as complicated as you like when it comes to growing. I don’t pH, and she is often left out in the rain which means she doesn’t get fed every water, and so far so good. I don’t use any extra nutes either. Only Mega Crop. So far she is a happy girl who is finding her voice.

Here she is in daylight. And today she will spend the day in the rain.

Happy Sunday!!!
She’s a bit bigger and playing the low spiral training game. She’s okay but not singing… Yet lolling! I’m not super happy with her foliage. I had the light up too high so she got a tiny bit sunburned.

I hope your Sunday is brimming with the stuff that makes you big smile😊
 
Happy HumpDay!!!
Grow moves have been made. She got an uppot. Not coz her roots needed it, but because her canopy does. I need room to get that low outward growth.

So I keep my grows simple (besides the 143 uppots lol). I put a handful of Blood n Bone in my coco. I always water it with nutes before I uppot, the dirt I mean. There’s between 2-5g of Mega Crop in every 2 litres of water. I tipped 6 litres in. I also added that Shark stuff to the base of dirt just coz I have it. Personally I think it does fuck all. I think when it comes to marketing weed growers get absolutely conned. Theses extras are like expensive vitamins. Unless you have a diagnosed deficiency you don’t need them. That’s just what I think anyway.

Here she is before, during and after. She is currently sitting out in the rain. I personally don’t think rain hurts your plants. In fact I think fresh falling rain has a magical property which is depleted once stored. Again, that’s just what I think lol. I also think, based on what I’m seeing it’s totally okay for coco to dry out. I only water approx every 3rd day. And I’m still only using Mega Crop. So far so good.

Serendipity has finally got that CarCanopy illusion. Now I will work on keeping her level. I’m really happy with the genetics. Her growth is good, and as you can see she’s bursting with good health.

Sweet handful of roots!
 
Your plants are looking great! How do you get such clear pictures of your plants?
Hello there :)

Thank you. They really are a labour of love. I love fussing about in my grow areas each day.

I just use a cheap Huawei phone. OGPapa told me to always clean the phone lenses, so I do that before taking pics.

I think having a lack of clutter around the plant helps. I’ve made kind of a black backdrop kind of Photo Booth, I have a Nug Booth too made of an old shoe box. I use my grow lights to help with lighting. I’m doing a Sunday Summary today. I’ll show you.

I’m a busy person, I find having a system saves time.

Hi again, if you’re talking about the black and green, I set up a Photo Booth. My Bloom Room is a small narrow store room my man turned into a narrow functional room. Hi tiled it, added a doorway so I can anccess it from inside and cupboards.

This is how I do it. Black sheets and light dimming. And I am defs no photographer lol. Hope this helps.

l am really loving these genetics. I’m well impressed with both growth and colour. As you can see, she’s finally got her circular canopy shape. Now I concentrate on the inner growth. I do that with Carhooks. I’ll find the tutorial carcass made me tomoz for you in case you are interested.

Just poking around,saw your pics of plants and they look so damn good,crispy n I can see the shades of green in leaves like I standing looking at my own plants!! The black backdrop n fluorescent lights is such a good idea for pics. I also use LEDs but sun my veg girls too lol. Feels like I'm taking kids or my pets to the park when I set them out to get sun lol. Grow looks very professional n plants look vibrant n healthy 👍

Thank you for the insight! That's an awesome setup you have. Pictures are a thing on my list that I want to improve with. First step is to probably stop using my phone for all the pictures I take, but anyway I feel like I'm distracting from your grow which is looking very healthy and green!
 
Happy HumpDay!!!
This is where we are at! Our girl is filling out fast. As I have said, I don’t top. I train coiling the stem around the edge of the pot. It’s the only way I can keep my plants low. So by this stage I am transitioning from a trusty Carcass inspired Carhook, to a Trahook lol. It is basically a Carhook on steroids. I need a stronger hook to keep her arms down.

On the off chance you aren’t familiar with carhooking to get that elusive CarCanopy, Hashgirl put together a step by step Carcass Tutorial which takes you through it.


But back to Serendipity!

Here she is! As you know I grow in coco, but I don’t feed with Mega Crop every water, just most. I believe rain is good for plants. My garden never flourishes with physical watering like it does with fresh falling rain water. I always let my plants sit in the rain, in moderation.

Now I have the shape I want, I will focus on creating Coca-Cola sites. My goal is to keep her low and have a flat canopy.
