Week Four Of Flower ( Day 64 from Seed )

Week Four Of Flower ( Day 64 from Seed )

Well its the start of week 4 of flower, I decided to chop off all the lower branches that were not receiving any light.. I also decided that 3 of the 4 that were on the outside corners were not receiving any light.. so i pulled them.

I am down to 5 girls In the Tent.. with one monster.. i got her all tied down today.. budding up very nicely...

On a sad note, only one of my clones rooted, and It was looking sickly so i pulled it as well.... Im am going to order some Alpha Diesel seeds tomorrow... grow those out in the clone box and clone off the best one of those for the 36 clones i need for my SOG set up.. as well build a easy cloner..

ConceptOfSleep - Im not really noticing any smell... and i don't have a carbon filter, I have a 6" duct inline duct fan thats 392 CFM that i vent into the attic... if i turn the fan off i can smell them.Kinda fruity... hard to explain..

Thanks DigitalHippy, your haze are looking good :)

I read somewhere its bad to clone plants that are in flower mode, I think I may just Re-veg the big one... I got some Alpha Diesel on the way, I really wanna grow a Sour Diesel... I'm Pretty stoked!!!

fuck man MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR malfulcution.... god damn roots grow down into the intake pipe and clogged it!!!!!! I was wondering why fan leaves are falling off and my plants are starting to look sickly, I even did a res change on sunday... how the hell do you stop the roots from growing down into there?? Like i got it unclogged now, but i know its gonna happen again... i had to cut some roots off... i dont want to have to keep doing that, anyone got any ideas.. Like next grow i can get the proper flow valve thing, but I cant really take the table apart at the moment

ebb and flow fittings. it's ok to drain everything out of your set up as long as the roots dont go dry for too long. so drain your set up dry. put in the ebb and flow fittings and refill.

Sorry about the lack of updates guys, my camera crapped out on me, and for some reason I can not upload pics from my roommates cam...

But things are looking good, the girls are starting to put on some nice buddage.. got frostage happen too. Im gonna take some pics tomorrow.

On another front I got my Alpha Diesel seeds today, also got a 5 pack of Sam the skunkman Thai Haze x Skunk #1, Ill be putting those into the fridge for later use :joint:

I have also decided that since i screwed up on taking clones from my blue cheese monster... as well I killed her main cola.. but thats another story :badday: that i am going to attempt a re-veg with her... if nothing eles it will be a learning experience.. so with that in mind, I will be growing my Alpha Diesel out to find a mom... Then starting in December i am going to change my set up to a perpetual one. I am modeling my set up after a post i read by Happy Hemphog http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=17421... Harvesting 2 plants ever week sounds pretty damn cool to me, run 3 or 4 different strains at once... heaven :rasta:

Week 6 of Flower ( Day 77 From Seed )

Week 6 of Flower ( Day 77 From Seed )

Well its week 6, things are looking great...

I rubbed a leaf the other day and got a very sweet almost minty smell.... its very hard to compare it anything... Buds are still packing on weight...

On other fronts, I have my Alpha Diesel in paper towel right now... once they germ they will be going into a small DIY ebb n' flo made out of a cat litter box and 2 liter pop bottles with a rubbermaid roughneck as a rez... cheap and dirty... but it works.

yah so far where i am we have only had a few +30 c days like today... and my room only gets a few degree's warmer.... I definitly want to get a ac.. next summer.. I need to figured out a new air intake for the winter... as it stands i got the fan in the attic sucking the air out of the room... no air intake from outside, just the crack under the door and i leave the window in the bathroom down the hall open... Im totally afraid that in the winter this is just going to suck all the hot air out of my house and cause my already outragous gas bill to be through the roof.... but if i build a window box and get the cold air coming in.. it might be to cold.. it can get to like -30c in the winter

Damn this is a expensive hobby to get into....but one day.. some day... it will pay for itself... hopefully lol :joint:
