Hey Y’all! 😎

[Deadstill]

Finally got my new dog yesterday! He's a TOTAL sweetheart!! He's a little older than I was told - turns out he'll be 7 this December, which is fine. That makes him the eldest of my pack, now, and he's SO well behaved. I took him to Big-R (ranch store, allows pets) and he was the perfect gentleman. He completely ignored other people, other dogs, walks and behaves on a leash very well. He can definitely teach my other 2 dogs a thing or two about behavior!

Looking at his Pedigree certificate - I believe he's more of a "Czech" GSD but certainly has a lot of German names in his bloodline. IDK, I'm fairly new to owning purebred AKC registered dogs so I'm still learning a lot. The lady I got him from told me she believed he was a Czech so that's where I'm getting that information from.

I'll post pics of him later, been busy just trying to get him adjusted to his new home and new pack. Still have to introduce him to the Pitbull/Boxer mix we have, that's a little bit reactive to new dogs.

Here's his Pedigree-

Oh Yay! That is so exciting! And such a great thing that he is so well behaved!!!
He has some imports back in his lineage for sure. SZ numbers are German and DL and DN are AKC database.
But truthfully import or domestic it doesn’t really matter. They are all descendants from Max vom Stephanitz very first shepherd.
Czech lines are good lines too!
There is a great website called pedigreedatabase.com.. you can search all his family tree through there and gain all the info pertaining to his bloodlines.
Here is a pic I pulled from one of his grandfathers using the numbers.
Send some pics when you get time. Congrats on your new Guy!

This may be stupid question but…. Are the ends of the pistils supposed to be turning reddish brown this early into flowering?
I just started using Open sesame a few days ago and then now they are turning colors. Just want to make sure that’s normal? Or is it another form of nutrient burn?
Thanks so much!

That's normal, yeah. They will produce new white pistils and the older ones will turn brown all throughout the flowering stage.

Thanks so much for the info I will definitely look through that when I get time! Pics coming, soon!

Awesome! Thanks so much for the reply!

Here he is. He's doing a lot better now that he's out of that rescue, too. He has some damage from flies chewing at his ears since he was kept in an outdoor kennel while he was there, but it's getting better now.

 

[Mikedin]

They are looking awesome! And what light are you using? I remember reading somewhere before it was a very low powered light making excellent growth. Sounds like a top notch veg light lol

Welcome, if you've been lurking you already know what a wealth of information this site is. your girl looks healthy and well tended, I do urge a word of caution though,, this hobby is addictive and may cause you to break out in receipts and newlines of credit..lol oh and dont forget to inform your significant other that at any given notice you may jump up from your restaurant table and make a mad dash for home for any random reason, like forgetting to set a timer or leaving the wrong light setting on, or forgetting to check the humidity in your various jars and containers. This hobby can be hazardous to your wealth.

Oh my goodness! Your so right! It’s already becoming such an addiction! I love it!
Thank you for the kind words and words of caution

Thank you! Well all the way to about two weeks before flower I had a $40 grow light from Home Depot. Then I bought a $60 light from Amazon.

Hey CannaBuddies!
What is this about!?
I tried a very light LST yesterday by barely bending the bottom branches down just a bit and tied them to the pot. ( I knew I probably shouldn’t do it) but wanted to expose as much as possible.
I came home today and this is what I find…. What would cause the fan leaves to bend backwards?
They are still really firm and healthy feeling…. But just bending backwards a weird twisty thing…It’s only on the bottom branches that I tied down… is that normal?
I about FREAKED when I saw them
So I untied them.
Oh I also added beastie blooms nutes. But only a 1/16 of the recommended dose.

And the leaves themselves aren’t bending or twisting. Just the stems are curling the whole leaf back

Those are decent I was using a different brand KingLED 1500’s x 2 and gave me a great first harvest!

This was grown under 2x of the 1500’s

Looks like they are trying to re-orient themselves give it a few days all of mine where LST’d and after a day or 2 they usually straighten themselves out made a huge difference for me

Easier to link you to my first grow so you can see

Is that only 6 plants? They look great! Very Nice!

Oh man! I already cut the strings! I freaked out and took them off already.
I guess I’ll just leave it alone like I intended to in the first place. I’ll do the LST the next time on my clones.
My clones are all doing pretty well. I just put them in soil the other day and they are all perking up and have some new growth.

Damn those look good how many days have you had them in dirt rooting? These are my first clones so I just dipped them in rooting powder, clipped the leaf tips and put them in some seed starter soil in solo cups, I did put them in a 5 gallon bucket with stretch wrap over it and then popped a few holes in it for some air exchange lol

Mine all rooted in about 9 days… I just dipped them in root gel and put them in little jars of water. Then I went to walmart and bought this $11 cake carrier. It worked perfect because it had the built in cupcake holders that the little jars fit in perfect. I drilled a small hole in the top of it for air. It was really tall also so my clones fit perfectly . So I essentially made my own little propagation station for under $15.
Set it in front of a window and the roots really took off growing. They have been planted for about 3-4 days and already have new growth.
I think they are coming along pretty well.
