new england growers:regional info part 2

[Highlighter]

Pre-flowers were spotted on the trunk w/ a magnifying glass. These plants are 9 wks old, plenty mature to be expressing.
Here's a shot of the pre-flower balls on a male Congo, to give you an idea.

these are from bout a week ago. the snl doesnt look too apealing, im prolly gonna trasnplant. but it could have been a couple things cause if the way they went limp.

Bump! How's everything growing fellow new englanders?

I'm personally in a bit of a strange position...put 6 clones out about 2 weeks ago and marked them on the GPS. Went to transfer 3 seedlings out yesterday and decided to check on the clones. Well my stupid GPS led me in circles for an hour and a half and I ended up not being able to find the clones I put out. I believe their still out there, but my stupid ass just couldn't find them because of the GPS not being accurate. The way the spot is its absolutely impossible to find them without the GPS. I still need to transplant them into 5 gal buckets too so I hope I can find them soon! lol.

And as I was climbing out of my spot all pissed off I realized that I had totally spaced out and forgot to mark the new seedlings location on the GPS. Doh! Maybe I should stop smoking before I go do these kind of things....naahhhh .

Been a rough season for me so far...more fuck ups than I can even count and everything seems to be doing its best to screw me over. I'll be lucky if I can harvest a few oz's by the end of the season .

So how is everyone else's season going?! Better than mine I hope!

 

[Deft]

Yea thats why I dont smoke when putting things out, just so many things can go wrong if you do.

MY GPS has never led me astray and its just a little cheepo one, how long did you give it to track satalites before going out? Mine somtimes needs a good long time to get its bearings, what did it say was the reliability in meters/feet?

great thread!

simply love that happy congo male highlighter!

 

[Highlighter]

Sorry to hear that, StS. I'm sure you'll find 'em. I don't think I could sleep w/ that on my mind.

Hi esbe! Nice to have you drop by our humble thread.There are more danish grow threads going than regulars here, yet the N.E. region has one of the highest per capita puff rates in the whole U.S. I don't get it!?!
I'm happy to see you growing the Bangi Haze!
Anyway, here's a shot for you; Two Early Durban's, one on the left a guy (who will be pulled), on the right a girl!



I visited plot #2 this A.M. w/ some fish fert and was able to confirm sex on 8 of the 10 plants there.
A shot of my biggest ones there:


Left, Nigerian girl, center, Power Malawi, undetermined sex, right, Congo girl.

SHOW US WHAT YOU GOT NEW ENGLAND!

WOW! Lookin good Highlighter. Come harvest time you should be one very happy man!

Recently i broke my digital camera, and to add insult to injury my laptop crashed as well, so i have not been able to get more pictures or log onto the forums for a while. The ladies (too early to really tell, but i'm more of a glass is half full guy) are lookin pretty good. nothing like yours but i got off to a much later start. I've been using Neptunes harvest as well, the 2-4-1 fish fert.

the weather has really sucked around here lately. cloudy days cold nights. I thought it was June?
by the looks of today though it seems like my little ladies will get plenty of the sun they've been craving.

How's everyone else doing here on the east coast?

 

[Highlighter]

Happy Solstice, New England!
I've ID'd 10 girls so far, so I'm pretty happy!

Unless you in southern NJ I wouldent! Southern NJ is a sweet sweet place though, tons of spots and usualy great soil.. One of my parents is from the pine barrens, cool place.

Northern Jersy smells like ass and there are too many people

 

[Highlighter]

The pine barrens, lol! All I know & can think of when I hear that, is the Sopranos episode! Nice to meet you, cocktail frank!

Deft, mid-july for some, not til early august for others. (on the flowering.)

where do i buy neem oil, and once i have it, how do i go about using it? i know a lot of you have talked about using it for mold and pest prevention. what is it? can i get it at a gardening store? whats it cost (roughly), and is it something i can use throughout the growing season?

 

[Highlighter]

I bought a bottle of concentrate a few yrs back that will last me a lifetime for $10. Last few yrs I've seen it diluted in spray bottles for about the same.
Should have it at any decent gardening shop. If they don't, they'll feel stupid!
When buds are forming in Aug. I'll be switching to Serenade for mold.
Neem is more a natural insecticide,fungicide, and miticide you should only use once a wk. Serenade is a little heavier duty fungicide, also no more than once a wk.
Hope this helps!

 

[NEToker]

Great! I had a little problem with mold last august due to these jumping bugs...i'll show them next time around

i miss my new england. so cal is over rated. so many homeless ,illegals,hikers choppers and a lack of water. good luck this year guys. time to go scout out northern cali and oregon soon for next year.DAVESNOTHERE

 

[Deft]

I want to move to nor-cal, everything seems perfect there except for the messed up laws in CA, couldent bring my car as it would not pass inspection even though its a cali spec car! All the guns I want are illegal also!

 

[Highlighter]

Hey, Davestillhere! Funny to hear from you w/ the sox playing out there!
I miss your audacity! Good luck scouting and all, but fuck Cali, I'm growing the bomb shit right here!
