Plants are looking very healthy and happy Woodsman! You are doing great. Really makes me wish I was able to do outdoor this year.
Thanks Odin. They are doing pretty good right now considering the battle that was waged here a few weeks ago with the boring bastards and an attempted 'break and entry' by a white fly or two. Speaking of white flies, earlier today I noticed a white fly nursery under one of the Mazar's outer leaves. I'm pretty certain it is a white fly egg sac with the white fuzzy stuff holding it to the leaf. I just tore the infected 'finger' of the leaf off and lit the nasty nest up with a lighter. I've done it now! Pita may be knocking on my door tomorrow! Hey do Pita people smoke? Maybe not since you have to kill the plant in order to get medicated.
Heya woodsman! Im gunna try to regenerate about half of my crop I have going now after harvest. What would you suggest I do to make the process go as smoothly as yours! Your regenerated baby looks amazing!
I was thinking a good spot to start was getting some sort of candle wax to seal the tips where I chop them at, and I noticed you left the lower small buds on... Do you just give them small amounts of veg nutes?
Also, is the grade of the plant degraded? (in other words
) Will the 'medication' come out the same strength as its first run through?
Sorry to ask so many questions... but last but not least... If its so easy to reveg a plant and just keep it... why dont more people do it? Seems to me that most people just chop the crop and are done with it...
Hello Lebowskii, I'm sure by now you've read my post on your journal. I'll reply briefly for those who haven't seen your awesome grow.
Lebowskii, I believe doing his first grow. Outdoors. He was hoping to regenerate his plants after his harvest. I explained to him that unless he were to regenerate them indoors, it would not be possible to do it outside. With winter coming and I presume you are in a warm climate or you would not have thought of this in the first place, you will have decreased daylight hours. The two key ingredients to regeneration are: #1. increasing daylight hours from what you had before your harvest and #2, changing to vegetative nutrients. Other needed actions are re-potting to a larger container or pruning your roots and don't forget to prune your plant down to just a few bud sites at the 'bottom' or lowest point on the plant. You've already harvested the rest of the plant by now. Do not remove the buds off the remaining plant.
As far as potency, My limited experience resulted in some killer California skunk, just as good as the first time around. for this grow of mine, I know by regenerating outdoors, I will get much much more out of her in weight and hopefully with the Sun as my energy source instead of some low watt HID's and some cfl's, I will have a much better smoke than I had the first time around. She was and still is a very potent indica smoke. So yes it should be just as good and if grown under the same conditions the second time around following all the steps mentioned above. It is the same plant you grew before. And you know it's a girl!
Maybe it's not commonly done because of the additional space needed. Your placing them in larger pots (unless you prune your roots). Cloning I would think is more efficient of a method and instead of one plant, you can grow many. I have never cloned and do not have anywhere to do it. Most indoor growers can clone and do.
As far as a sealant for the cut stems goes, I use bag balm. You can use Vaseline I would imagine. I wouldn't use anything with a chemical base that can burn or shock the plant. I don't know about wax, not hot wax that is. The bag balm I put on a couple of months ago is still there. The stuff just doesn't go away! Perfect sealer, I wonder if axle grease is OK or would that be harmful?
i got lost at nepal jus joshin just checking the grow
I'd get lost in Nepal also if I found some good sh*t by the road! Just kidding, The G-13 X Purple Nepal sounds delicious! They are taking their time to open, one has just stuck her little white tongue out at me after a week the other is still locked tight.
Hey Woodsman Here' a bit of advertising for your pipes.
I can post one of a picture that is already in my gallery, but can't add more for a while. They'll get it fixed soon. I hope!
Just want to let people see the great quality of your work.
Thanks buddy for the very kind words my great Hawaiian friend! I forgot what the first one looked like! For all you've done to help me out, I need to make you a dozen of those things! My brothers is like yours, but the bark does not go all the way around. Like Mountain, I've put some olive oil on a couple of scrap pieces to see what happens, did a second coat on the first one this evening. They do look nice with the oil though I do like the white of the bare hickory. Turns a little darker with the olive oil, but after a day, it's not oily at all. Sinks right into the wood and bark.
I'm in touch now with the advertising dept here at 420 now and the gentleman that contacted me is an A1 guy. Trying to get me hooked up. We'll see if it can be done.
Ill be-a-lurkin
