I have to agree with you on this Friend! The consequences purely outweigh the reward, but look at the reward!FiD said:
The grow looks like it is coming along nicely and it shows that your pretty handy with a powertool or two..
Keep it green fam!

Yo FiD. What's poppin?
Things are looking alot better around your way. I like that dual 400. That's a 400MH and a 400HPS? Should definatley give you some dense nugs with lots of colors.
What 12 girls you have under them? All SSH? How long you gonna veg. em?

i am gonna push the limit man!!, ive got atleast 5 and 1/2 feet in there so theyll be veged until they get to about 4' and that the shortest one! i take clones for the next run and then flower. and yessir all 12 are SSH!!! and yeah that a both 400 MH and HPS.ARTofMAKINGfire said:
what i notice about this strain, from the last grow, is that it really doesn't grow that much in flower but acutally . . well. . . flowers!! lol
so all i have to do is watch them bloom and in about 9-11 weeks give em the chop
trust me when i tell you those beans are worth the effort!! the next run, i hope, is gonna be those ORANGE BUD clones i took. reason i say it like that is because, i have them in that bubbler and im usign a liquid rooting hormone. i normally use the powder.
i have been checking on them and the water. the water is fine, not cloudy at all, no algea growth or anything like that,BUT there is this "goop" that is forming around the tips where the roots would be shooting from.
i don't know if that what is supposed to look like or what? they are doing well though, i mean no signs of wilting, or anything like that, so im just gonna watch them and see what happens. the mom tops are also doing well in there except for that other one i was talking about in the last post, but it seemed to be on its way out anyway.
im keeping a sheet of notes this time,dates and all, so ill be able to keep up and log any crazy changes, and what really works from what doesnt.

its true what they say , that things always look like shit before they get better!!cellardweller said:
and the tools are like a life line for me man for real!! thats my hobby building shit like those cabs, working on my home, all that. im no pro, but i aint afraid to get a shock or two!! lmao
i gotta go slow with my plans though cause i tend to miss shit, but when its on its on!!!
things are looking better
things are looking better
i guess im totally more of a winter person it seems, as my luck does get a lil better around now with the grow.
CLONES
i had to move some things around and get some more space where i keep my moms for those clones that eventually root and want/need to go into that dark period at times.
i took some cuts of the ORANGE BUD this time and did a soil run as far as medium. my lil bubble cloner setup really didnt do well at all, but i aint upset, i plays better in dirt anyway! and that hormone i bought from HD seemed to be crappy, but it was for soft wood plants.
i had some ROOTONE that i put to the way side. i used it in my first cloning endeavor and it seemed to have worked, so ive gotten back to that, and with quick results too.
MOMS
i gave a friend one of my moms, and he was shocked at what he saw and realized that the advice i was giving was not to be taken lightly since they were fundamental. i always tell him "dont worry about the money, your a grower now, you have to worry more about the plant now!! once the plant is taken care of properly then all other things will follow, but the plants have to be prime!!"
i took some cuts the other day from the ORANGE BUD plant and the cut sites already responded to the cuts with increased foliage. real hearty plant i must say
FLOWER CAB
was goin really friggin crazy with these damned timers!!!! i bought two of the $10 heavy duty timers from HD since they have always worked for me in the past, with my hydro projects and HID lights, why they weren't working this time, is something i just cant figure out.
i went to HD again and bought the heavy duty timer for the outdoors and it works like a charm. its like a block six strip with a timer to it, so it works perfectly for what i need.
ive got it set to a 16/8 schedule though. i figure/ hope that once they go from 18/6 in the mom section i have for them, they may show a lil boost when they are replanted and put under 16/8. i just wonder if that 2hr difference would actually, in fact, make a difference

THE GREEN LIGHT DISTRICT!!!
kallenavndk- yo man, thanks for the shout! and as far as STT goes, i agree that was one REAL ESTATE deal that "shouldnt" have gone through either!! lmao but you already know, you are more than welcome anytime, the herbs are fine there too. i was recently invited to a cannabis cup that was being held out there, but wasnt able to make that one either (either meaning i missed the nugs and jugs thing too. . . .
) , but the show must go on yes. . . .
FLOWER CAB
THIS IS YOUR OFFICIAL WELCOME TO THE GREEN LIGHT DISTRICT!!
like i said in the title , this is the green light district!!lol got some SSH from my boy and it is such an inspirational strain that i just couldn't help myself when the thought came to mind. i added the blessed green light to my cab in order to be able to see whats going on in there during the dark periods. here it is light on. . .. . . . . . . . . .. then light off (snap shot)
heres a shot of under the hood and where i placed the light itself. both shots are of the light on.. . . . .
a closer shot of the lights themselves. . .
ahh cannabis, how would i think without you? so i say to all of you small cab gowers: see if you could get a lil green light in there, and join THE GREEN LIGHT DISTRICT!!! LOL beginning of a new thread/ new crew or both? ahh who knows, we'll see! peace

well i hit a couple snags along the way as far as timers, but hey i think they are doin allright on the 16/8 sched with both 400MH/HPS goin. . .
as compared to about 8 days ago before the 16/8 switch (10/8/08). . . .
here they are from the beginning from 9/26/08. . .
i may get them started on 12/12 on friday or saturday. i tried to take some close up shots, but every time i do i am reminded of how shitty my digi-cam is . . .
the shortest out of the 14 is about 13+" . . . . .
the tallest one about 22+" . . .
heres the hood as it is now, with the GREENLIGHT switch in front. . .
but as far as i can tell these bitches are ready to go fuckin' bananas!!!! if it wasnt for the fact that i had a deadline on this grow, i would have had monsters! but oh well ill take what i can get from this one. heres some outro images . . .
that ORANGE BUD clone i put in there is fightin as well to bust out of this cup, its kinda damaged since it fell from where i had it in the grow bag. it seemed stable at the time but its a hearty wench, so im sure shell pull through. . . .
well yall, peace-out till lattah!

YES YES YES, ITS TIME TO FLOWER!!!!
i figured id post these now, since tomorrow im gonna be busy gettin supplies and other stuff for the next run. but here they are, these lovely SSH bitches are ready to go crazy. . .
i took a pics of either side since my cam is so crappy so hope these help a lil. . . .
and heres the lil ORANGE BUD i am gonna flower and see what shes made of. . .
since im gonna flip 12/12 on monday, im gonna let that first week be a grace period and then count from the following week to consider them really into flower. i am gonna be taking pics every week to show, the growth, not only foR ICMAG but for myself mainly. wanna take a good look at my grow this time, see where i can tweak things a bit for the future.
im gonna take some cuts and hope to god that they make it this time around. will be going back to square one with the rapid rooters and go from there. and will be taking a massive amount of ORANGE BUD cuts as well for the second run.
well stay tuned, im gonna definitely be out on teh seen "showing my grow" !! see you out there!!!

Hey Friend, I haven't seen you since your SSH grow. You've come a long way. Went back and checked out the end of that thread where you were building your scrubber. What is that metal sheet with the holes in it? Some kind of metal lath? Looks like a sturdy material and easy to work with. And the spray adhesive and filter material from an air filter - genius.
Those plants are growing like crazy. Good work on them and on your whole setup.

that mesh is from homedepot, and be damned you would ask me about it now (that i cant remember what the name of it is exactly lol!) i know its sold in sheets of 3x3 and is normally near the the air ducting section, it comes in different styles, but this one really was the easiest to work with. it was pricey (i think about $24+ or something like that) but well worth it. i alwasy said i wanted to make my parts so that they would last,and this thing is gonna last a long time!
glad you like the setup man, it was all pure dedication!! besides once i learned what i did from the last grow, i needed to explode this grow and teh many more to come.
the whole NYCD thing isnt going as i planned, but this ORANGE BUD i have would well make up for it!! this thing is really bustin' at the seams and needs to be cloned anyway.
***i think next time i wont include the strain in the title until i have a good one or at least three plants going, as popeye would say " this is so imbarisking!"
WOW!!!
WOW!!!
well the last time i took measurements i got .. . . .
the shortest out of the 14 is about 13+" . . . . .
the tallest one about 22+" . . .
i just came outta there and the tallest is now 24" and the shortest is 15" !!! all i know is, im gonna keep on doin what im doin and do the 16/8 alot earlier and maybe even longer!!!

ok you guys have to forgive me for the pics, i had to take them in the dark, so my aim was a lil off.
i turned on my green light and saw that they could have used a lil space among them, so i decided to move them around a bit. . .
here is a closeup as best as i could get it . . . .
i took this shot because it think it best represents what kind of bud i can expect from this run, and this is on of the smaller ones. . ..
the tallest one has gotten to 27" and the shortest is 18". so it seems that im still gettin a descent growth rate. although i have both MH and HPS, ive got them under the HPS only for now. im thinking about giving them both spectrum's at the last two weeks. should make for a nice observation of trichome growth and densing up the buds aswell.. . . . i think

well i took another stab at taking clones, but i increased my odds this time by getting/ using the right and proper accouterments and viola here you have it. . .
i took about 15 of the ORANGE BUD that you see here in the left side of the tray. i gotta say once again that this is a hearty ass strain. . . . .
i think its about 12 or so SSH i got here. i honestly think you get more from a clone of this strain than you do from an actual plant flowered from seed. . . .
i was so fuckin pissed when i called the grow shop and wasnt able to speak to " my guy". instead the puttzy owner answered and he offered his help. so i heard what he had to say and wasnt impressed, so i went at it alone and used my stoner sense and intuition.
bought the 50 pc. bag of RAPIDROOTER plugs, used SUPERTHRIVE and the DYNAGROW:KLN rooting hormone i have and mixed to specs for a 1gl bottle. brought that plant into the kitchen and started hackin and slashin away and came away with what you see in the pics. used an old clone/ seedling tray i had layin around and there you have it.
my main goal was to just try and increase my cloning success rate, so i figured this was the best route. im sure this shit will work, just looking at how they are responding. there is a lot of humidity going on in there since i turned off the fan for that section, so the heat from the lights could build up to create the humidity necessary
so does anyone need a clone or two, ive got more than i need at this point and they are MORE THAN READY to get growin!! . . .
ill keep the post as regular as i can, but this is it for now

well here goes nothin!!!
i am gonna try my hand at this AIR CLONING technique and see what happens. of course i had to DIY it, so i should achieve the same results. i chose these two to start with since they were reaching past the lights the most. . .
and this one here. . .
there is one more plant that i didnt get a pic of that i need to AIR CLONE as well. these broads are really tryin to get unruly on me !!!!!
only thing about al this is that i am not using any sort of gel but the sAme rooting hormone mixture im using for my existing clones. just fill the cups with dirt and water. we'll see what happens
EDIT: but seriously does anyone need a clone or two?. . . . .

i guess since ive been at it alone for so long, i dont know what you mean by what its "like"?
the most i can tell you is that they pretty much grows out like the GREEN HOUSE SEEDS version of SSH as far as i can tell. i really cant tell direct lineage since teh beans wer gifted to me, but comparing the SSH i have to other grows (like MR. NICE, or the famed CATPISS pheno) this one looks and behaves more like the one arjan and franco grew out.
i like this strain because it seems to stop at whatever height you start to flower them at and then gradually get bigger and fill out, and dont grow too much taller, even though its a sativa.
the high is a two for one as far as i can tell. it gets your mental going and allows you to flow during your tasks, but at the end there is definitely a couch lock that will put anyone to sleep or depending on how much of it you smoke, will just dumb you out. perfect for me!! since i work nights it helps out with the occasional insomnia that i get when i come home and cant get to sleep right away when i need to..
the clones that come from it are as sturdy as anything and i havent lost any lower leaves or branches yet!!! i was thinking about taking clones from them b4 i flipped 12/12 but the bottoms branches are so strong that i dont wanna miss out on any bud this grow!! lol im still trying to get a more stable cloning technique going but this is my third attempt. the methods are more conventional this time around and should do the trick.
hope this is what your question is referring to. if anything hit me back and ill try to explain more. . .
