Hey There PN2P 
hehe...gotta hate to love it when you got too many ladies
Nice to see you've morphed business and laziness into your own style of starve and binge growing
Glad you're enjoying your harvest and sharing the fruits of your labour
Where did you say you put that "favourite" jar? (and a beer too please)

Mixing in the coir..

Growdate: Day 60..veg (growdate from dry seed}
Growdoc..Right on mang..I'm back on track now for this round..
GMT..I call a "node" where branching occurs..and cotyledons, 1st true, 3 blade, etc.. "stages"
With that in mind..I cut between 1st true and 3 blade..on 3 AD's and above the 3 blade on the rest..
so the 3 AD's new main stalks are the very bottom branches..the rest the mains are the 2nd from the bottom..I took a pic..
issack..I have a bit more room now..but a lot less time and $ to set up the way I want it..but this curtain set-up works real well..
glad to see ya back and posting..
TML16..These babies have been through hell but they're kicking ass now..
hmmm home made beer and some cannahops(buds) mixed with the hops..hmmm
funny you mention jar..I got these new super wide-mouth jars with stainless lids..tall(spaghetti size) and clear..have to take a pic..
got a few shorter ones too..at check out to my surprise all 50% off..
Finally repotted after nearly 55 days in 16oz party cups..
I stopped by my fav hydro store and the owner was in, which always means things will be favorable for me..he's given me lots of stuff for free..
this visit turned out good too..I just needed some more #1P pots and maybe some coir..I wanted some Botanicare Coco..
but he's not stocking it..so we got to talking, then he said hold on..went in back and brought out this 50L bag..
Agro Dynamics (Grodan) Coco Can Growing mix enhanced with worm castings and OMRI certified..
hmmm I say..how much..15$ for a $38 dollar bag and a discount on the rest of my stuff..
I can't find very much info on this product even from Grodan..is it discontinued or new?
This was it.."Use a reputable product such as CocoCanTM Growing Mix which is OMRI certified and has worm castings."
Anyway I somewhat buffered the coir and mixed about 50/50 potting soil and this coir..the plants seem to like it..so far they are taking off quick..
They were fairly rootbound although I thought it would have been worse..
I carefully pick loose the outside roots with a tooth pick before I bury..
I'm gonna flip to 12/12 any day now I think..I'll just repot again in a couple weeks..
I think my bene orgs are gonna love those worm castings..
The plants are behind in total development due to my delay from vacation and neglect from recent busy times..
So here's a couple of new pics 3 ADCW's on the left..4 AD's on the right..kinda leafy after many were lost..kinda hard to see the main
Left: 2nd node main branch split..Right: 1st Node main branch split..

Another grower setting up a choir, er coir, grow. They're looking fab my friend - liking your new digs too! I'm in trouble - I'm getting tempted to change media!
Man, a full time electrical expert, canna grower, AND JetGreen pilot? Man, where do you find the time? I need a 48 hour day!

MGJ..Yeah I've been mixing it with potting soil for awhile..I like the flow and texture of coir..
but also the potting soil for other reasons..mostly for pH stability and a happy home for my fungus and bacteria..
I'm excited about the worm castings..I've been meaning to add some to the soil anyway for the enzymes and beneficials..I think they may like it..
What is time..like Garlic was saying a 1 Day weekend is all I'm getting these days..
Toked a doob of the 4 mo cured BD..man it is so smooth and stony..the buds came out nice and sticky not too dry not too wet..just right..
Well here's those new jars and a couple old ones..all BubbleDust..

"Momma told me not to come!" :wink:
Wow those is some fancy shancy jars there Pack'n...I like whats in them.
From a guy who hasn't harvested in a few months...those look damn tempting
Looks like you're Pack'n quite the stash
Young'uns are looking great
55 days in a party cup seems long...but I never keep track of veg times so...
Good luck with the new medium I know it'll be time for me to re-stock soon, I'm also keeping my eye out for any possible changes that may need to be made to my medium.
I started adding EWC 2 grows ago, and I'll never go back to worm poopless mixes :smile:
OMRI is good

TML16...Yeah..I think I used too much coco this mix..they're drying out quick..great for making your soil more airy though..and I treated them badly again..
I'll talk more to your frozen ass soon..thought I posted to your thread but it's not there..
Well here's the deal..My PC has an ugly hardware problem..need to fix it to retrieve some data..so long story short....
This post comes to you via my brand new laptop with MS Vista..it just happened MS released Vista today..and I needed a laptop today..wasn't planned..
so thought I would stop in real quick before I fiddle with this thing some more..
Man this thing has a 17" HD Widescreen..saweeeet

Congrats on the sweet treats in the jars - looking as always!
And congrats on your new Vista notebook! You are the first person I know running production code Vista on a new machine. I'm also interested to hear what you think.
What % coco are you mixing into your soil? Just curious.
Tasty digs as always my friend - packn ain't lackn in bud!

GMT..This is the first evening I've really had to play with this new laptop and Vista..So far everything is running just fine..
It comes with a remote too you can control MS Media Center and other things..a lot like XP but with subtle differences..
3D shading on windows framing, makes it look rounded..Come to think of it Vista has a "round" theme to it, even the Start Button is round..
and in one click all the windows you have open turn sideways so you see all of them at a 3D looking 45 degree angle..
From a GUI (Graphical User Interface) prospective it's a very nice pleasant and clean looking interface..this notebook is loaded..
I am really digging it..the HD screen makes bud shots look unreal..I've been using an old CAD CRT monitor..great for gaming and color..
but the definition on this laptop blows it away..It also has a nVidia Geforce GO 7600 3D video card..
MGJ..see above..this time I mixed about 2/3 coir to 1/3 potting soil..A little too drainy..but will work good as the medium pot..
in the flowering pots I'll go 70% or more of potting soil..so a ring of airy soil surrounded by denser moisture retaining ring of soil..
sounds good in theory anyway..airy coir surrounded by moist potting soil..
I'm thinking a wick like action as the coir dries quicker it will take on water from the soil
Not much to report new other than the plants are exploding with growth..maybe re-pot and flip um this weekend

Windows has found me unsafe and blocked me from use
Windows has found me unsafe and blocked me from use
GMT..Well the bad thing about this deal..I didn't get any disks..
what you get is the now popular "Recovery Disks" and the hard drive partition that has the recovery on it as well..
This is the first time I've never had the disks..as far as authentication..it was good to go with the first connection to Microsoft..
no typing..just a "we're gonna check real quick" and that was it..I'll get to further review of Vista in a sec or two..
TML16..Well as I use it more..it does have its faults..I'm usually the last one to switch OS..I ran 98 up till XP service pack 2 which is on my PC..
I hate being the guinea pig..I'm getting to the part that drives me nuts about Vista..but the laptop itself is kick ass..I love it..
This is it... http://www.shopping.hp.com/product/...00t_series/rts/4/computer_store/RP246UA%23ABA
The downside to Vista for me is the over-the-top security guard attitude it has.."Can I do this and that" messages "need your permission" for everything..
every site that has Shockwave Flash seems to get blocked..because "it wants to use an Active X control in an unsafe manner"
so I configure Internet Explorer to let it work anyway..so it starts pummeling me with "your computer is unsafe" messages at every turn or click of the mouse..
According to Vista nothing is safe so better not use it..TV network sites like NBC is totally based on Flash(web site based player of movies and active content)..
basically so you can watch it, but can't download it usually..
Vista doesn't like that site at all..so I'm investigating ways to shut off the warning systems..if I can..
OK back to the grow situation..man I used too much coir in the 1 gal mix..they've gone bone dry several times this round..but they look great now..these are gonna be huge..
finally bought a frozen brick of potting soil..
had to dig it out of the snow at Hemp Depot..so I'm ready to repot to the 3.5 gal pots..flipped them to 12/12 yesterday..hit um with Bud Blood today w/ the AN 2+ program except I've switched from the 3 part nutes to 2 part AN Monkey Juice nutes..
My friend at the hydro shop gave me the flower parts for free to check out..(like $45 worth)..Monkey Juice is formulated to work optimally with coir..
I still use AN Mother Earth Tea (100% Organic) as well as part of the program..
It would take too long to go through the whole program breakdown..
but basically it involves hydro nutes combined with organic nutes and an optimal condition supplements for beneficial micros to thrive and play your roots like a fiddle..
Pics are a bit of a problem right now..but I think I found away..so we'll see soon..sorry If this post took awhile..been very busy..

Hiya Packn
You did it up right on the new notebook - fine machine! I've read that Vista really needs the extra system and video memory, and the dual core chips.
No doubt that in a few months Flash and Shockwave updates will change how they work to a way that won't cause the alarm bells in Vista, it'll just take some time.
A little to much coir eh? What % did you mix in? Good to see you're still lovin the AN line of ferts!
Looking forward to your photo update!

Fine machine ineed PN2P
I'm still scared to venture into the unknown world that is Vista. Maybe I'll wait for a stripped copy to come out
Then again, I diasble all that activeX and flash crap anyhow
Gotta love de-frosting the soil for a day or so before use :smile:
Now, let's see some pics!

MGJ..yeah we'll see if it gets better..or I do with it..
TML16..I catch episodes of missed TV that I forgot to record online..like Lost & Heros..that's my main use of Flash active X..
yeah that soil was totally frozen solid..cold but easy to carry..glad I made it with just one bag..had some partial bags as well..
Re-potted the crop..not a minute too soon..they were going dry in less than 24 hrs..did like I said..mixed potting soil & coir about 5:1 below in pot..
just pot soil around and topsoil..so it has an airy center core..the plants perked right up..tomorrow I'll give um a nute mix and beneficial micros for the new soil..
Pics and a true update soon..time to watch the buds form..

Growdoc..yeah my threads are kinda stunted right now without pics..gonna try and get some through my laptop this morning..
This thread is dying on me...I've been so busy..my "To Do" list is long..this post comes from me forsaking that list..I was sick all last week too, so stuff is piling up...
Anyway I've managed to keep the plants alive..actually they are thriving now..The ADCW experiment seems to be working somewhat..
AD is a very squat plant..barely stretches at all during flower..the CW has a stretch problem..It never stops...so I combined the two..the bud formations are looking normal..
The ADCW's are at least 8"(20cm) taller than the AD's..at 18 days flower buds seem ahead of schedule..I use AN Bud Blood..when I flip um to 12/12..
The BB is like a flower switch for the plant..based on PK boosting..that is used only for that purpose..
This is the third time I've used it..seems to buy a week of flower..buds form very quickly..
I need to try and post pics now..so hopefully I'll be right back with pics..

They Ain't Pretty But They're Pics
It took me few hours to get a 99 camera & software working with a 07 operating system..
It's a pain in the ass..need 3 programs to get these pics ready for upload..
Camera software will only let me download & delete 1 pic at a time from the camera..any other operations within that program will crash it..
I just need a new camera...
Here are some pics "under the lights" a 400W Hortilux HPS & 175W Super MH (my veg light that's helping out)..
Ugly pics but it's something...The ADCW's (3) are the tall ones on the left..AD's (4) on the right..
Also a quick shot of what I was trying to accomplish from Operation "Twin Towers"..
Try to do some nice shots next
