OG Kush Flower Journal

[JeffSpicoli]

Ya ive heard of people saying it spreads. But ive been running the larry for over a year, and havent noticed it spread. The HA ogk, and Larry ogk are the only 2 strains i have that show TMV.... I made a cross to the larry ogk, and the one seed i have sprouted showed the TMV as well.

Id say youre making the right call on the long flush.. Ive alwasy flushed for at least 2 weeks

I feel like a newb for asking this; what's TMV?

 

[bterzz]

My 2nd light wont light up. Its on and hot but producing barely any light.

Bad bulb or ballast?

I would think bulb, but im no expert

 

[headimonster]

....check ballast honestly....is ballast making a funny noise?? plug a different hood into that balllast for a lil troubleshooting

 

[JeffSpicoli]

the only reason i said bulb, is cause my friend thought his ballast went out, cause he had the same problem your experiencing. He went to the hydro store, and they said it could potentially be the bulb, he bought a new bulb and that was the solution for him.

Ill have to post some pics of my larry later tonight, shes got full pistil formations now

 

[bterzz]

Last night I plugged my ballast into the other hood and its the bulb.

I'm going to go get a new one right now.

I have (2) hortilux bulbs that went out in the past 3 months.. awesome.

 

[headimonster]

oh you gotta love it !!! always right at the end of the cycle too

heres a picture from 31

 

[bterzz]

wow that is getting sugary headi!! Can't wait to see the progress. Keep me posted!!

Also, got a new bulb today. Solarmax. Got to find my old bulbs box so I can get my warranty.

My garage honestly reaks havok of kush, even with the carbon filter...do i just keep spraying something in there to mask it?? Do you know how hard it is to mask Og kush? lol..

They dont even look close to ready but they do. Huge white pistils all over the place but still sugary fat calyx's. I dont know what to think. What X microscope is efficient for checking trichs. The 30x at the hydro store was 18$.. to much for me.

Dont drink joose.

 

[magiccannabus]

Well Radioshack has a crappy handheld microscope that is acceptable for checking trichs and it's only like 9 dollars, maybe a little more. I'm planning to hot glue mine to a webcam and make a cheap USB microscope out of it lol

 

[idoreallytry]

yeah i paid 13 dollars for my radio shack 30-100x scope it is a pain in the ass to use but id=f you have steady hands and patience you should be alright,,,peace

i believe there is advertisements with a black scope that says 420scope down the side,,,as a matter of fact heres the link,,, http://www.420scope.com/ ,,,that is the same scope i got at radioshack it just doesn't say 420 down the side lol...peace

 

[headimonster]

the 420 scope and radioshacks mic scope the only differenece is the 420 has an LED bulb....way pricier though....i dunno those microscopes suck...i d get a jewelers loupe and jus try to get the best idea i could

 

[bterzz]

I have a radioshack microscope and it absolutely sucks. i'm going to try and find something different on ebay.

 

[jammie]

i cut a little piece of bud or leaf tip and place it on a white paper. that way you can stabilize the scope it and get a much clearer view

 

[bterzz]

I went into my room at about noon to find both lights on (they have now been on for 18 hours straight) my timer took a dump.

what are the odds lol.. just not a smooth week.

Put a new timer in there, they should spark back up at 7. We'll see. I'm not going to have any drastically negative effects from this right?

sounds like a good idea.

I snapped a shot while the lights were out.

 

[idoreallytry]

yeah i didn't mention i hated mine as well lol,,, if yo are trying to look thru it without cutting the leaf off it is damn near impossible,,,thats why i said the thing about steady hands they are a must to see a good picture with the cheap ones,,,the other day i was in toys r s and they had something that hooks up to your computer or tv, i think something called an "eyeclops",,,heres a link http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3144129 these look like they would be cool,,,i have seen another one to can't remember the name but it was cheaper and started at 60 times and stopped at 200 times i remembered thinking it would be better for some reason wish i could remmber the name actally i might have found it on ebay,,will keep looking for it and post it on here when i do,,,peace guys

thanks headi for the clarification on the led bulb,,,peace
