Yep.. should've locked daman in da flowering chamber a few weeks ago. He would have seen the leaks sooner! We revamped the veg chamber and the air ducting leading into flower was spewing light. Daman fixed it up on the weekend but it was too late! (i don't do well with sharp objects or any type of tool that needs to be plugged in.. it leads to cuts, blisters and one small little fire that could have happened to anyone... besides.. I put it out
Here is what is left. I am trying a water cure.. don't know if there will be any decent smoke in it but its a learning experience anyhow.
I took a clone of the wakeford about a month ago so I'll pot it up and put it into flower. From what I have been reading, alot of ppl put clones into flower without a veg time. I am flying by the seat of my pants anyways so I think I'll give it a shot less I hear otherwise. (tell me if I am screwing up please!)
Growdoc.. thanks for keeping an eye out. I sure do appreciate it.
Sorry to hear about the light leak, had the same problem a while ago and had to build a downward open box on the outside of extractor fan in order to stop light getting in but still let air out. Very interested as to how the water cure works, good idea for a smoke report.......water cured.
Peace
The neat thing about the water cure so far is that there is no odor.. cept when you change the water for about 15 minutes.. it is really really bad.. the whole place reeks!
Here is my wonderberry x sourd taken umm last night. No bananas!
i tried to germ some killa queen but only got 3 outta 9 to sprout and they came up sickly and didn't survive. having lots of luck lately.. its just all bad!
Anyway, gonna germ something today with my fingers crossed chanting "germ germ germ"
thinking about Mango x Blueberry and maybe Strawberry Blonde x C-99.. course I haven't had breakfast yet and might just be hungry!
We revamped the veg chamber with venting into the flower and the leak was from the air ducting. we've since added more ducting with some bends and attached the fan to the end of that so no more light leaks. Still left 6 plants in flower that weren't damaged and one pollenated. A lesson we won't forget. You are so right about the learning Hairy....just glad we are flush from last harvest to keep us in herb till the new ones are ready.
time for an update on my garden. I hardly know where to start.
Ok.. remember my hermied Wakefords. (deviants or what?) While these babies were growing, I tried a couple of things. First I took a couple of clones from them and when my ladies hermied, I potted up the clones and put them in flower. So I am back to two Wakeford ladies.
I tried pollenating a bud site with the original Wakefords and got some seeds out of the deal.
Germed some seeds.. Hawaiian Goddess from Mota.. its parentage is
squatt Hawaiian pheno BC God Bud and pollenated it with a Sweet Tooth #3 male. The BC God Bud is God Bud x Hawaiian x Purple Indica. The female had skinny sativa leaves and an earthy smoke.
and
BCHashplant again from Motarebel
ok.. now the wonderberry x sourd
Its at 54 days. I am thinking about another ten days or so till harvest? Here are some pics.
So that's basically what I have been up to. I am thinking about revegging the wonderberry x sourd after I harvest just because I haven't tried that yet so it would be kewl to give it a whirl. I tried germing some killa queen and that didn't work out so well but Mota has since sent some of his killa queen v2... its Airborne g-13 x c-99....I am dying to try that but there is no room at that inn right now. Soon though. this growin stuff is addictive!
jenna - nice save on the wakefords - clones to the rescue! Great selection coming up for ya, and the wbxs looks really beautiful, I like the look of the lighter orange brown hairs. Looks sweet - onto the chopping block real soon now. Haven't done a reveg myself yet - will be interesting to see how she goes.
Got some big nugz there..almost ripe for the pickin...and a couple of nice flavors for the future..hopefully the Wakeford clones won't go he-she as well..Re-veggin is pretty cool when the mutant leaves start coming out of the buds...Hawiian Grown talks about a guy that's been growing the same plant for 15 years I think..just cuts off the buds and most branches and then reveg and do it again..
Your gonna like that killer Queen once you get her planted and grown.I wished I had cloned her, buti should have thought of that befor.
heres some pics.
its Mr GreenJeans, Packn2puff and Cough_cough_eer!
I love those pics cough_cough_err! The bushier the better! Thats what a plant should look like in my warped mind's eye anyhow. We grew out some afghani specials and they were the wierdest looking plants.. tall, with a single kola.. granted a huge kola but wierd lookin.. i think I broke two.. great bud though.. awesome.
I think the hermie threat is taken care of .... the light leaks are gone so I am crossing my fingers. Might even get these babies to harvest yet.
I haven't tried reveggin but how hard can it be? (like I haven't said that before!)
Thanks for stopping by.. I wish I could share the wonderberry x sourd with y'all.. I am tickled its getting so close
MJ growing has so many aspects to it.. keeps my mind learning.. kinda like computers.. (not work related, just for fun)..dos 5.. ohmygawd.. a shell... heaven! By the time I have it licked, it'll be legal! It's a real hoot to be part of this.
