Struckanerve is back!

[Struckanerve]

Well today i decided to take some clones. I made a cheap bubble cloner with stuff i had lying around. I am using my old computer grow case to house them in. The light is just a 18w, which should be plenty. While i was at it i hacked off a lot of the undergrowth from the two plants and raised the screen up a tad. I plan on switching to 12/12 tomorrow. later guys!

lol struckanerve, maybe you should join hardmode. nice engineering.

 

[Struckanerve]

Thanks stihgnobevoli! Just thought i would post some new pictures. They are 5 days in 12/12. I moved the screen up a little and every day i try to reposition the branches and bring them back down through the screen. Hopefully i can keep them in check! I will probably do some lsting to the screen when the time comes. Later guys

Nice little grow you have growing here!!

 

[Struckanerve]

Well today i took some updated pictures. They are at day 10 of 12/12. The cinnamon flowering pretty fast. I went in and hacked out all remaining small branches that would just produce popcorn buds, cause they just waste energy. I was debating on hacking out some undergrowth but i think im just going to leave it for now, since i am still able to pull the tops back down. Also i keep forgetting to mention how the odor is. The fan and filter are still working great. There is no smell in my closet at all. Once you take them out though they start to reek up the place lol. Later guys

Looking good man

Looking good man

Thanks man!

Well tonight i decided to go in and clear some lower leafs. They are almost 2 weeks in 12/12. I have started to let the tops come up through the screen. I tried to space them all out the best i could to get even light. Hopefully they don't stretch to much more. I can still move the light up a good 5 or 6in, but i am trying to keep it as close as possible to the tops. The cinnamon is still flowering fast, i would of thought being a sativa it would take longer for the flowers to develop. Also have i ever mentioned what nutes i am using? I don't think i have. I am using General Organics grow/bloom/camg+. For the veg stage i just used grow/camg+ but i just switched to bloom/camg+ every watering. I really like this line. Probably for next grow i will get bioweed and biomarine from the line and see if they make a difference. Well talk to you later guys

 

[#1cheesebuds]

they r looking sweet. but that sativa might need to be tied down to the screen just a little bot more so they dont grow into the lights.

 

[Struckanerve]

Well a quick little update. They are at day 19 of 12/12. I moved the light all the way up. From here on out i will tie stuff down if needed. They have slowed down on the stretching and have started to fill out over the past couple of days. They both have a really fruity smell to them. The carbon scrubber is still working fantastic. Later guys!

 

[Struckanerve]

Day 24 of 12/12. I zip tied down 2 tops just in case. There is one more that i will probably do as well in the back, when the lights come back on. Other then that they have seemed to stop stretching and are starting to fill out. The cinnamon is starting to get this nice lemon smell. I have only been giving half strength nutrients but probably will gradually increase it to max in the next week or so. Either way cant wait to see how they turn. Later guys

Lol its funny that you mentioned this. Cause today i ended up using my twisty ties, to tie down some of the branches to the pots. As for how many weeks. The pineapple on the left takes about 45 to 50 days to finish and the cinnamon should be around 60 to 65 days. I should of taken some before and after shots, but oh well i forgot. So here is some after shots lmao!

 

[#1cheesebuds]

wooooo hooooo dude they r looking so so so dam good.

 

[exploziv]

Your girls are rocking under them plls.
Do you have anymore pics of the hood you made?
I'm try to make my own, what did you use for insulation between the cardboard and mylar tape?
Would be nice if you post more info about that sick hood.
Back to enjoying your show

I used this reflective insulation. You would use it in the attic or on other heat sources. You can find it any home depot. If you look in my computer case sig. I have better pictures of it in there. As for the hood i dont have any other pictures at the moment. It was from a board game. I saw it one day, then decided to measure and it was perfect size lol. I was going to make a real nice wood hood, then possibly put plexi or glass over the lights. but i figured it would be to heavy and more of a pain to deal with.

Well it is time for another update. It is now day 31. They are really filling out nicely. The cinnamon still has a really strong lemon/pinesol smell. As for the pineapple just a fruity, sweet smell. The carbon scrubber is still working great. There is no smell even when you open the cab. Thanks for the kind comments guys
