Marijuana [Cannabis]

[CdnGuy]

Outdoor...that can be a stressful project if doing it out in the backcountry. But it's amazing too see football fields of weed growing

 

[bhog]

Hell yes. If you just put a couple out and let them get BIG they'll provide more then plenty. [emoji3]

 

[CdnGuy]

People here have just started throwing seeds in random public parks in the summer lol twice last summer I was running and found plants growing.
Edit- they had no buds yet or wrong sex

Are you going to make a mother plant?

I plan on keeping 1 of each strain as mother

You just keep it in the vegetative state, on 18/6, or 24 hour lighting.

Keep clones of all your first flowering run, carefully labeled. After harvesting, pick your favorite, for whatever criteria. Grow that clone out to a bush, then keep cloning all your flowering runs off that bushy mother plant.

So you should never flower motherplant?

Not if you want it to stay a mother.

If you're going to retire the strain, then flower the big bitch out and chop her. These are perennial plants. The flowering is the end of their life cycle. You can revive them once flowered, but it's tricky, and highly stressful to the plant. Like bringing them back in ICU, resuscitation shit.

Heres my latest harvest , in celebration of Oregons new pot law . About a half pound , dried & cured . Its a Aurora Kush/F1 hybred Ive been growing for the last year. I also grow a OG Kushberry .
I harvest every 3-4 weeks...

These were grown 4-5 weeks under T-5 lights then flowered 7-8 weeks @12/12 with 1000w HPS . Its a high energy pot and you"ll want to work-out on it , in the evening you fall right asleep on it....after you eat a whole box of Poptarts....lol ~Ogh

Thank you. You just saved me much troubles, headache and potentially destroying my plants.

I owe you a fat baggie ........

Wow, that looks beautiful. Good work my friend. Hopefully I'll have some buds soon.

You must be a busy man. Gotta love the marijuana laws.

I read most of what you are doing. The last 10 pages or so. I forgot what light spectrum/watt light are you using for your starter plants when you first got them. What were they again? Are you using the same light on your clones?

 

[jJjburton]

Basically what Dballin and HuckingFuge said. I wouldn't throw them out bc they're not too far gone by any means.

Clones and seedlings don't need much light at all and even less nutes. I don't even give them nutes until they've seated their roots properly.

A good rough estimate if it's due to heat from your lights, assuming ambient temps are ok, is you should be able to place your hand just above the upper level leaves on the plant and not get your hand burned. If it's too hot for your hand it's too hot for the youngins. Either reduce the total light output, improve circulation, or move the lights further away from the plants.

Is bat guana powder good. I heard that liquid is better abosrobed form the plants. Have you ever used bat guano powder? That is what I have.

For vegging and flowering, we are using:
G8LED 240 Watt LED Grow Light with Optimal 8-Band plus Infrared (IR) and Ultraviolet (UV-B) - 3 Watt Chips - All in One for Veg and Flower
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005MWHI56?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00
and
Roleadro UFO LED Plant Grow Light 90×3watt 270w Indoor Greenhouse Lights Panel
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RWQ4B50/ref=s9_hps_bw_g86_i1

For clones, we will be using as it just got delivered:
Sun Blaze T5 High Output Fluorescent Strip Light 960315 24 Inch
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009GCQWX2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s02

I think the clone light is too powerful for the clones so rather than laying the light on top of the clone dome, I will mount it on top of our smaller tent (4" high) while leaving the clone dome on the bottom.

Heres my latest girls , 2 weeks into flowering , 6 weeks to go. Im a little late in rotation with this group but Im going to get caught up .The object is to harvest 8-10 oz dried/manicured every 3-4 weeks . Thats a little over state-legal , but not by much .

Is bat guana powder good. I heard that liquid is better abosrobed form the plants. Have you ever used bat guano powder? That is what I have.

I've used fox farms, advanced nutrients, and a few other companies but never liquid bat guano. The plants are very good at absorbing whatever you give them and this is evidenced by the fact many new growers get nutrient burn as it's called when the plants get too much nutes. For that reason I am not concerned about absorption of nutes and just stick with the normal bat guano. I prefer using guano from bats and other animals rather than synthetic nutes as I and my friends can tell a difference in taste and smoothness.

Nice...You don't play around!!!

Clones looking healthy. Too scared to lift and check for roots...probably still too early. Using clonex mist E3D.

Clone dome set up completed with light

Holy shit ogh, I had no idea you got down like that!

Very very nice

I wish I lived in oregon

The nutrient damage was from the medical dispensary that I got from. My wife and I have been using ......tap water. I know we need to not use it. We've been so busy lately. Lights are LED but not even close to your strength. So much to learn..... Have feed any nutrients yet... Used organic soil from Home Depot.

I think for this first attempt we are gonna not use tap water and let it ride to see what happens....is that a mistake?

The reason why I didn't go with 5gal buckets was because of limited growing space. I was afraid plants will out grow greenhouse.

We will do Next round correctly. We got over our head. We should have learned more before starting....newbie mistake.

My wife has been suffering from neck/shoulder pain that's causing her to wake up almost every morning with a headache. She's been going to accupunture and it's helping. She's also tried nacotic pain killers which takes the edge off, but leaves her with an unpleasant feeling. She's tried OTC pain relievers which helps a little.

Then last weekend I got her lotion that's infused with cannabis. From there website "The organic menthol crystals combined with medicated emu oil delivers the medication deep and straight where you need it for almost instant pain relief". She was pain free after 1 application. I am gonna try some for my lower back as its hurting from my last deadlift session.

Interesting. I use a couple different transdermal formulas sometimes (for curcumin and resveratrol) and I had always been curious about how effective transdermal delivery would be for cannabis.

Does she feel the effects systemically, or just locally? I wonder about using that for the tension knots in my upper back/traps.

It's non psychoactive and effects are local. I think it would work wonders for tension knots. I'll try on my lower back tonight. Base of my spine feels major pain right now. I can't even put my pants on without sitting down as I can't bend forward. I will be a believer if it reduces/eliminates my pain. Not that I don't trust my wife, but I have to try for myself.

Please keep me/us posted. I definitely have a lot of love for the THC, but if I can get some relief at work without psychoactivity, then that would be titillating.
