Tiger's Den 3 - TRC Sweet 13 and PlanB Brain Warp

Heya guys!

Sorry I've been slacking on the updates. Been really really busy around here.

I'll get ya some pics tomorrow, but here's where we stand today-

The lone brainwarp female had two clones taken, and then she moved into her new home in the flower room. She's also picked up a new bed - coco coir. I burned the shit out of her by mixing my nutes whilst stoned, but I flushed her today and got a correct dosage of nutes in there.

The Swt13 girl in flower is doing great. It looks like the Hydroguard did the trick on the root rot, and she's shedding goo and dead roots left and right while putting out new ones. She also got a new dose of nutes today.

Over in the Vegroom, we've got the MMs cruising right along, and I'm expecting them to sex out anytime now. We've got the 2 Brainwarp clones in the cloner, along with 4 SWT13 clones. As soon as they pop roots, they'll go into coco coir in the flower room as well. Right now all but one SWT13 clone looks like they're going to make it (the cloner recieved an upgrade :wink:).

I'm trying to get dialed in for a perpetual, but it's a little harder than you'd think, especially trying new mediums in a new room :D Believe it or not, it looks like I'm going to be out of stash vefore the SWT13 girl comes in. Yeah, I smoke like a fucking freight train, what of it :sasmokin:

I've had the opportunity to smoke out a few folks, and the results have been clear - devastating. I have a '1 in 10' rule I follow whenever I smoke someone up for the first time with this. 1 hit, then you wait 10 minutes before taking another. So far, noone has gone for the second hit :D

I completely killed a circle at a friends cookout recently with it. About 7 of us sitting around a bonfire, and I skinned a spliff. Ok, ok, I didn't, since my rolling skills are somewhere on par with a three year olds language skills. But I busted out the bud and it got rolled into a very nice joint.

I tried to warn them. I gave my little speech about the 1 in 10. But, they just wouldn't listen.

30 minutes later, 2 were passed out where they sat, all conversation had ceased, and the remaining 3 were left staring at the fire, with a rather, um, unique expression on their faces. My buddy (the host, a non-toker), and I were left. He said, "You asshole, you killed my bonfire! Next time keep your super weed in your damn pocket" :D

Letting it go late was definitely the key to SWT13's stone. It's precisely as Lonestar described in the strain description - A lofty, soaring high that settles down into a deep, mellow body stone. Can't describe it any better. It lifts you way way up, then let's you softly glide back down. Which is surprising, because once you get back to earth, you find that gravity has suddenly increased, so much so that it seems to be pulling your brain out of your nose. Such a deep, deep stone. Towelie, from South Park, sums up the effects of the stone the best, "Man, I have no idea what's goin' on"

So, there's a mini smoke report for ya, and a quick update. I'll grab some pics for you guys tomorrow.

Lmao...how funny is that eh?

Now this may sound funnier but maybe it's practical to have a "bud lite" if you will....funny cause it's been on my mind to have something that looks and smokes a little more lower grade, for just such an emergency. Or when you're at a place where it would just be too obvious you grew it yourself, if you pulled out the dum dum weed.

Peace Bro...
Waitin on the update pics

:biglaugh: RoFLmAo man, that's so funny....good sign for your bud though hey? :yes:

sweet tooth is a very nice strain, i always enjoy it when i get a chance to smoke it.

anyway thats where us europeans have it easier, we just make tobacco joints lightly spiced with bud on such occasions :D

a pure joint is a powerful thing with good quality and low tolerance after prolonged time without thc. but specially with indoor homegrown, you can reach a very high potency. i find my buds get me much more stoned then the average moroccan that's around.

Here's the promised pics. The SWT13 is on day 36, and looking good, if a bit smallish, from the battle with root rot. Now, that day 36 is using the alternate counting method I talked about earlier. If we were counting from the start of 12/12, she'd be at day 46 - just 2 weeks from chop. I'll still be watching the trichs, and it'll be interesting to see what she'll do in the extended time. As long as she doesn't get 'overdone' :D But I'll bring her ass down before I let that happen :D

Our BrainWarp girl looks like she sucked on a muffler for a bit, but she's fine now that we've flushed her out. As bad as she looks here, she was much worse yesterday - stems and leaves all curled and bent, like she was trying to flee the nute solution.

And here's what we're looking like over in the veg room. Muds on the left, SWT13 mom to the right.

Holy....

The DWC girl came down last night. Just enjoyed my first tokes of a taster bud.

Oh my...

She's a completely different beast.

I think someone just dropped a mountain on me.

At the very least a large hill.

Be back later

Still alive, just extremely busy.

Still haven't gotten the BW girl dialed into the coco yet, been trying to adjust my formulation.

I'll be back when things simmer down a bit, and I'll bring pics.

Sorry I've been neglecting you guys!

Hey there Nite Tiger,

Hey GM :wave:

Yeah, enjoyin' the last harv, and plus getting the new job dialed in well.

I'm still trying to get this coco thing down though. That poor brainwarp is getting the crap knocked outta her LOL Burns, Defs, just haven't gotten it completely dialed in yet.

Plus, as poorly as she is doing, as well as my poor planning, has me looking at a dry spell between harvests, which bites ass :badday:

But I'll be back as soon as I've got things back in order, both in the garden AND outside of it :D

Ok, I've got an update.

I will warn you, the plants will not look fantastic right now, they've been through some rough times.

Let's start off in the vegroom, where we see things have thinned out quite considerably. The BrainWarp potential mother is on the left, and the Swt13 Mother to the right. In the cloner, you'll see 5 MM clones, and one Swt13.

51215-24vegroom.jpg


Now, the reason things have filled out in the veg pod is that the flower pod has more plants in it than ever before. You'll see two SWT13 clones, 1 BrainWarp Clone, and the two Mississippi muds. I'm suspecting my luck with the MMs has held true to their start, and are both males. They'll be watched closely, but I've got to make absolutely sure, as I really want to see how these genetics come together.

The first BrainWarp, in coco, has finally come around. I originally flushed the coco with 2 gallons of water, double the container size, as is standard for a full flush, hoping to remove some of the salts that have caused trouble in coco. Unfortunately, this didn't work out. She has suffered through burning, followed by a lockout. Monday, I flushed her with a full five times the container size of R/O water, and that seems to have done the trick. She is recovering, although she still looks beaten and abused in the pic, rest assured that it is a vast improvement, and should continue to improve.

You'll notice the MMs look a tad rough. That's due to letting them dry out real well in preperation for their transplant, they'll recover quickly with no ill effects.

I'm not sure if the extreme stretching she's showing is due to her sativa genes, the stress she's experienced, or a combination of the two. Whatever the cause, she is the leggiest plant I've ever had :D

Also, my perpetual harvest got seriously off track. Between the DWC Girls root rot causing low yields, and the delay in getting the BrainWarp Clone into flower, it looks like I'm going to be high and dry here for a month or so :badday:

I've learned some valuable lessons though, and hopefully things will progress smoothly from here and I'll be able to advance my knowledge of coco. You'll notice that the new plants in the flower room are not in coco, as I need some solid harvests out of these plants, and soil I know, while coco I'm still learning. One of the lessons I learned was about depending on plants in a new medium :D However, now that I seem to have found the key to coco (massive flushing), you'll see more and more clones going into a coco medium.

Stay tuned, because in anticipation of the possibility of no females from the Mississippi Muds, I'm going to crack some of the Cheese and ThunderFuckin'Blockhead I was generously gifted by a kind member.

Wow, quite a little novella there, here's the pic!

Wow, look at the legs on that one on the right. Hey NT, how far away are your lights from the tips of the plants? Things are looking good in there still. Cant wait to see what that TFB looks like during growth. I dunno if you heard or not, but I finally got a female out of my bagseed. After 5 males :badday:

Although, now the female is doing great, and I was able to get some clones from her, so I should now be able to get things back on track. Its gonna be a screwy harvest though, I'll get one plant if she goes to term, then about 4 weeks later I'll get 3 more and a 1oz... lol.

Keep up the good work NT. I was thinking about doing a coco SOG for a future bout. Keep us posted on how well you like the coco, and the troubles you have with it, if you wouldnt mind.

Heya Baker!

Sorry it took so long to get back to ya, for some reason it didn't update in my CP that there was a new message, I thought everyone had abandoned the thread :D

Yeah, she's stretching like CRAZY! I've gotta think it's the sativa genes in her, because she's never been more than 6 inches from the light in her life. But, sativa = stretch, que sera :smile:

Just dropped in to let everyone know I dropped the ThunderFuckin'Blockhead tonight, and I'll be doing a full update tomorrow.

Howdy Nite Tiger,

it's been a while eh? glad to hear you have a nice selection in you flowering pod. the coco problem is typical with un treated coco. but like you found out a heavy flush is needed when the coco isn't pre flushed.

anyway, keep on keeping on, i know you are enjoying the fruits eh, lol.

peace out man :wave:

Where they went

51215-28Goodbye.jpg


I found out today via sources that someone I trusted has potentially put me at risk.

Every piece of paraphernalia, every seed, every clone, and every plant are gone. Nothing remains.

To my generous friends that have graciously shared with me and allowed me to benefit from their skilled breeding, I apologize for this waste of of your talent and energy. Rest assured that you are completely safe, and know that you were never in any danger.

I have no idea how long it will take me to resolve this situation. I will return once it has been dealt with in no uncertain terms.

Once again, I have not been busted, and no LEO is involved. I had a system in place to warn me if anything at all went even slightly off kilter, and it worked. I responded immediately, even though the risk was minuscule.

Let this be a lesson to new growers -

Never break the Golden Rule - TELL NO ONE!

I will not delete this account, as I hope I have contributed in ways that benefit new growers, and I do not want them to lose that resource. However, my posting will be nil.

I hope you all understand.

'Til next time, :wave:

Big bummer man. Hope everything straightens out and you're back in action quickly. But better safe than sorry. I hope I never have to make that decision....but I probably will someday. Be safe.

Man that is so depressing, even more so than when almost all of my plants turned out male. Well, I understand why you had to do it, but man, all your babies were looking so good. Oh well I guess. I'll see ya around when things get resolved. Good luck,
