Ah, it was BS, I just puffed too much! :tiphat:
J/K ofc man I understand! Its good u can have weed and not smoke it. I don't know anyone that can do that.
I know brother, no sweat it.
I can tell you that in these last 15 years i behaved like a true addict, in the bad way of it.
You dont? I flush through the toile 50gr of weed, the last i had from the previous grow and you will see me finish this one, curing it, drying it and getting out of my way to close this cicle.

The problem is not the plants, the problem is me, everyone is different. There are a lot of people that gets depressed by this, psicosys and what not, if the plant is the cause?Probably not, its the person but sure it helps somehow brother.

Im just saying, if i realize its a problem in my life it needs to get out to fix myself, maybe someday i can enjoy again the pleasure of smoking and getting high, afterall im a stoner to my core, and an addict is an addict for life, but i feel i can never control it again i will not puff anything anymore.
Ill just get happy by the smells that i may feel and growing this girls.
Also im trying to find a job in a weed company in my country, tilray or whatever because i love growing and the plants, not what they have done to me, or what iv done to me with them tho.

Peace :tiphat:

I totally respect you choice and I know it's hard if you were brought up in an environment of addictions.

But you know what? There are 1.000.000 addictions that we drag with us without even realizing, it's not even only drugs, so I'm ok with this one too

Btw plants look good man, can't you sneak in a watering at the end of the day when they are dry? you're gonna end up with a lot of weed for a non-user regardless hahaha

I only and just water them at the end of the light cicle bro, since the beggining.

Oh i know we drag addictions, everything is addicitve because addiction is hormonal, and that is influenced by a lot of things, social networks, coffe, sugar, etc etc etc, i know bro.

Im happy if your ok with that one if dont fucks up with your life, i would be too if it wouldnt fucked up mine too bro.

See im not trying to convince anyone to quit smoking, just talking from the heart :D

The problem is not the plants, is me and my lack of controll and priorities
Peace :tiphat:

I'm lucky in that I really don't like being stoned, so I don't smoke very much.
I prefer to drink but I've gotten really tired of being sick and hung over, and making stupid drunken posts.

I've managed to cut my drinking in half now and every time I think about drinking, my stomach knots up telling me no !!

Ohh, and by the way.
I never bother with removing any runoff, she just sits in her waste. I just keep adding more nutes.
My plants are always wet, so perhaps that's why I didn't get nute burn??

My media might be salty, but I'm not going to worry about it.
She seems fine to me.

From what iv read and other say and see, salt build up happens when the medium dryies, if it dont it doesnt build up, just the ec gets higher and higher i guess. High ec in the medium and salt build up may be correlated but isnt the same.

Btw im happy that you finnaly did what you did regarding drinking bro buds.

Peace :tiphat:

Speaking of being a newb and making mistakes, I harvested my plant today and found this.
Shit !!

IMG_20220625_095457.jpg


No more growing in the summer for me.

Mold has always been my downfall. I can make lots of mistakes and do dumb shit, but it's always mold that bites me in the ass.

I was hoping for a 1 pound plant, and I just threw out a ¼ of the plant. Lol

Fuck bro, how didnt you saw that?im talking but i cant see much in the middle of the bushes..

Im sorry for you bro but i think you should bin the whole plant, probably the rest if not infected the spores are there and can grow in the jar

See i can miss that also in the middle of all of that

20220625_210900.jpg

Also i think i could have sniped the side branches that have grown in all of the middle since they didnt progress by lack of light, see the difference in the same node
20220625_211203.jpg


Iv been measuring and some branches of the Amnesia is are 1m+ long, i never thought, its a beautifull plant, all of them deserved a bigger space and light, if i had multiwatering all of this would be even more uncontrolable that already amanzingly is, some side lower tops have some rusty pistils from leafs on top of it i think, if it was a general problem i think it would be in everyones, she is the closest to the walls now, i cant manage all of this better, any suggestions??
20220625_211005.jpg

Since the question, some new root growth develop on the top of the top of the Skunk Xxl for example, not by removing coco i swear, they are dry, getting a tiny bit of light, but they are there
20220625_211147.jpg

20220625_210803.jpg

The Super thickened quite a bit in the last 2 days since i raised the ec and got closer to the light, the most obvious is that middle top from a side branch that wasnt developing me thinking because of wind burn, i think they could have a higher EC since they are not smelling that much and resin that much, and for sure they get stress to produce resin by the drying coco
20220625_211039.jpg


Its a mix feeling the sobriety, i like it, i dont feel the desire to smoke to be honest, not even by sensing the smell, but i love growing them..im thinking on growing anything else in in coco and salts, why not a XXL letuce? Any opinions on what to do with all of my newb limited knowledge aquired? Maybe sell weed?i would love to mainline or scrog one of my Malawi × Panama regs by Ace, majestic beautifull plants. I love bonsais since i was a little child, i killed them all obviously, maybe ill turn to them or bonsai cannabis forever..maybe in 50 years ill post here a malawi bonsai that old :D

I think im going to raise the ec on the next batch since i lowered CA and consequently N, i maintained the previous 1.9ec and they thick up and resin up a bit more, im thinking around 2 to 2.5, tomorrow ill show how the mix is in the end.
Btw those long ass things on the shown sex means anything?

As far as iv read these are Zinc problems(?), just the amnesia and the super had them while back when i fucked up the nutes batch

Often addiction comes from a compulsive personality. If you have always had a focus on one thing or another, then quitting growing, as a non smoker, will likely lead to something else. The trick is finding a useful redirect. A job you take home with you perhaps. Another hobby. Watching TV may not last till the end of the movie.

Is also hormonal, you get something for the reward, thats why facebook and instagram works, sugar is everywhere (usa is a disgrace in that) coffe, meds, food, games, sex, depression, everything is adictive because is that rewardness, and that rewardness works on hormonal level, and as the body ask for it because of the routine because humans are routine creatures, becomes more and more compulsive, is also genetic and sociably pushed through us every day, capitalism works great on addiction, i can watch a movie until the end tho.

Thanks on the suggestion and help :D

Today when i arrived and went to the tent room some bad smelling was there, burned clip on fan, lucky it didnt get more time because it was really hot uff, i added another bigger one tho, chronic problems always remain chronic it seems
20220626_235056.jpg

So i was running the salts at 1.8 ec with this profile
20220614_013557.jpg
Then since they ended stretching and started filling i reduced the Ca and consequently the N quite a bit, ec raised to 1.9 but i see them a bit paller at the tops after even tho they resin up more and filled faster
20220627_021612.jpg

So this time i just raised the ec to 2.1 getting this, a bit more N than the first one, a bit less Ca, but higher in everything else and that luxurious K that some seem to run even tho notice it might not be needed, lets see how they behave, any opinions btw?
20220627_021454.jpg

They dont smell weed smell tho, i think they smell kinda toxic veg, even the Super that is more advanced, so im doing something wrong even tho i dunno what, im not using any filter and i dont sense anything not even one third that i smelled in the past hugely deficient burned grow its not been thst hot tho for them to evaporate the trichs

The Amnesia got the side tops closer to the light, i guess they needed it
20220626_235144.jpg

Anyone can guess where is the main stem/top of the Super? Tip, in the middle :D
20220626_235334.jpg

The Skunk is getting thicker a bit everyday

summer is getting here strong
20220626_163604.jpg
