I am definitely seeing some big fat leaves that are reminiscent of Sour Bubble, but they have vegged fast and grown tall with good node spacing. Could be the best of both worlds.

I am super-stoked that this will be bomb fucking smoke!!!! Thanks again FT!!!!

Those girls look sweet! How do you like those smart pots? I was thinking I coud make some myself. Yah I start counting when I first see the flower sets. You have some good genetics there.

Hey Skunk. The plants seem to be loving the smart pots so far. This is my first run with them, but they seem to be doing great so far. I really like the fact that they are flexible - So I can move the plants close to each other if need be. The Fairytale plants have been really pushing the roots through the sides. I will inspect the rootmass closely after they get chopped. Thanks for stopping by.

Hey Chef. Good vibes!!!!

I was rocking out AC/DC as a youngster as well. Seems like they are getting back in the mainstream:

http://www.deadline.com/hollywood/d...an-2-video-premiere-of-shoot-to-thrill-today/

I guess Metallica wasn't available. But Marvel Studios and Columbia Records today annouced a collaboration between AC/DC and IRON MAN 2, the sequel to the 2008 blockbuster film. In addition, Columbia Records will release the album AC/DC: Iron Man 2 on Monday, April 19th, featuring 15 classic AC/DC songs selected from 1976 to 2008. Pre-orders begin today. Also today is the debut video from the cut “Shoot To Thrill” which was filmed live last month in Buenos Aires during AC/DC's Black Ice World Tour, and which also incorporates exclusive footage from IRON MAN 2. The film opens internationally beginning on April 28 and in the U.S. on May 7. Here are all the AC/DC songs on the soundtrack: Shoot to Thrill, Rock ‘N’ Roll Damnation, Guns for Hire, Cold Hearted Man, Back in Black, Thunderstruck, If You Want Blood (You’ve Got It), Evil Walks, T.N.T., Hell Ain’t a Bad Place to Be, Have a Drink on Me, The Razor’s Edge, Let There Be Rock, War Machine, Highway to Hell.

WaterFarmFan great vid!! Damn bro you and I have the same taste in music. I have always been a " Headbanger" sence I was 8 y/o. AC/DC and Kiss where the first records I bought with my birthday money. I still have those albums and Im 42 now.:biggrin: About the smart pots, did you buy them or make them? I was reading a thread and the person made theres. They didnt look quite as good as the bought ones but I was thinking that I might try to make some. I have used the plastic bag pots and the work ok in my veg hydro set up and they make it easy to transplant. Do a search on youtube on Bonn Scott there is quite a few vids of Bonn doing interviews. The guy had the coolest voice and he wasnt much taller then Angus. I sure miss him. Fir being with AC for such a short time he made a big impresion. Youtube also has a bunch of their import songs, you should check them out they rock!
Peace
ps just did a search on vevo lots of AC this site is sweet!

Hey Skunk. The video really brought back some good memories.

I got my 2 gallon Smart pots online for a little under $3 each. Plastic pots are $1.50-$2 at the local hydro shop - so not too much difference.

I was not too impressed with them (visually) at first, but found that they were quite sturdy after I filled them with coco and transplanted. They really are not much more than very strong felt sewn together. The bottom is thicker material than the sides.

I cut a few holes in the top sides for tie-downs, and it really took some effort with a sharp knife to make a round incision.

So, strong but flexible with great drainage and additional air in the root system for a little extra money. If I get a 5% increase, I would be thrilled. The proof will be in the pudding, but they are doing great so far.

You should check them out Skunk. Here is a pic of one of the Fairytale plants busting roots out of the side:

Wow I love the root pics. I would say that those work pretty good. When you do a transplant get some pics of the roots if you can. Keep up the great job!

I removed #6 and killed her due to some hermies at the base of 6-7 branches. It is all good, as I was not expecting to find 5 keepers.

It was on was only on a few middle nodes at the base while the rest of the branches had flowers on the top. The top 6 nodes looked fine so I cut the branches at first and was going to put it back in the flower room, but I decided to go ahead and kill her and add to the bubble hash bag.

Due to space/time restrictions, I flowered these before they showed sex. This could certainly cause the hermis on a few nodes. I pinched a few balls off another plant but it was no where near as many as #6. I will be keeping a close eye on them for the next few weeks. As long as it is not wide spread, I will remove all male parts and see how they progress.

I kept a clone from her and will see how it develops to determine if was the early flowering. ft100 have seen any hermi tendences with any of the plants in your line?

Thanks.

Out of 3 sour bubble bx3 phenos, 4 querkle phenos, 3 chemdawg d phenos, and 2 double strawberry diesel girls 2 of them had some bananas on them. The 1 double strawberry diesel was killed before it ever had a chance to flower once and the 1 querkle pheno that hermed a bit was flowered once and let go. I'm very sorry they have given you some bananas. Out of everything else I had there were no hermies in now 4 grows of growing clones of the parents. There are a couple others here doing some of this mix and il check in on them and see if they are having any trouble but I don't believe they have seen any. Sending those positive female only vibes your way man. Good luck. Peace and smoke.

Iv seen that problem . You can have 5 clones of the same mother and for some reason one might develop some nanners. I even went so far as to pull them off if it was late in flower. I have read that a lot of things can make a plant hermi. So run those other clones and see maybe it was just a one time deal. My fingers are crossed fore ya.

Hey FT. I appreciate you stopping by the thread so quickly. I am pretty sure it was an environmental issue with the early flowering, as the other plants look fine. I probably should have kept her after I cut the branches, but I did not want to take any chances with my other plants. I will monitor the clone mother and see how the preflowers progress. Thanks for the good vibes!!!

The plants are really looking great. #5 is starting to show some advanced flowering and really starting to smell fruity/sweet. I hit her with a 1 tsp/gal KoolBloom powder blast today per Rez's recipe. All plants are on 6/9 GH diet.

Hey FT - Do you have any notes on the smells of the plants in flowering?

Thanks.

Here is a shot of the closet. PPP scrog on bottom and top has Sour Lifesaver right and FT on left. I elevate the shorter #5 to keep her as close to the light as possible.
