I’m in the states. There are people from all over on this site. But I would say mostly from Canada, United States and Europe.Used to take clones but don’t have space for mother’s . As I go to work for a week at a time would be putting my babies in someone else’s hands for watering and I don’t think that’s a good idea . Think my circumstances would rule using this way . Where about a are u in the world . Are there many people from Europe on this site or is it mainly Americans and Canadians
Hi again, You say you don't have much room? Check out this guys growOk nice speaking to u
Ok nice speaking to u
They come from Bomb seeds https://www.bombseeds.nl/ I got them here $35 cdn - 20 gbp for 5. Cheap for us here, I'd never heard of them either but I like have cloned a few more just behind those in flower now.Cherry bomb . Where does cherry bomb originate
Nice smell,nice burn,good high thc 17-21% (so advertised) pic of one of my last CB harvest day
That sounds like a lot of work with a multiple daily watering and feeding regiment. My peat stuff in 3 gallon pots I water once every 3-4 days in flower about once a week in veg. I understand the superior growth you get in hydro, a recent video I saw showed almost 2-1 growth with hydro over a peat mix with very little maintenance. I haven't seen that type of time laps video with coir but the maintenance alone seems to be more than I want to take on.I water by hand. I have 10 plants in flower and they go through 6 gallons per day. If I had full mature plants In veg, that would be another 3 gallons. I use old 1 gallon milk jugs. I would like to get a drip set up but I need to figure out the reservoir and the mechanics of it all.
I’m about to get this next grow started so soon my veg tent will be filled up.
Write away we're all learning from each other, what you bring may add to a conversation we can all learn from. Stay quiet and we don't get that insight. We're faux legal here we're allowed to grow 4 plants from seeds bought through a legal source only ( their seeds ) Trouble is until recently they only had 1 legal supplier with I believe 2 seed strains ( grey matter memory) and they we not available until about 6 months after faux legalization at a premium price for a No name brand seed.Sorry about the book I wrote lol
Right. I never would have switched to growing in coco if it weren’t for this site and I have learned so much about lighting from here., especially LEDs.Write away we're all learning from each other, what you bring may add to a conversation we can all learn from.

I'm 67 smoked for 50+ years and until I found this site 4 months ago and ( the most important part) its members I was on my own with limited knowledge just muddling along. I'm still muddling along with limited knowledge but with more people that have a variety of experiences willing to share with us all. Eventually I read something that sinks in and I learn just a little bit more. I've asked a lot of questions but I think I've learned more just by reading the postings from the members. Its then I realize I'm missing something and have to ask WTF thats all about.
Here we don't need a license as of a year ago. There's a grey area with the seeds we're allowed to grow from. The police will only be looking for you if you're selling or causing an offense leading them to your door. I think an old stay at home arthritic 67yr old with 2 replaced hips & bad knees is a low priority bust and they've got better things to do than to go after the likes of me on the odd chance I'm a plant or 2 over the letter of the law.Would really like to learn more about topping , fimming and general pruning of my babies . Do u have a department in the police or such like that can come check u are only growing four . Do u need a licence to grow or inform someone u are growing .
I'm not saying they couldn't do that here but now that it's faux legal and there's been no chaos erupting from hordes of stoned lunatics running amuck as predicted by the naysayers there's a more of a relaxed attitude about pot in general. You mentioned topping... What's to know? I top and continue to to until I'm ready to turn them, when I see 2 growing shoots below the top and they're tall enough that there's space for me to cut, I cut, fiming only by accident. Some guys here top real early I'll wait until they're tall enough for my fat hands to deal with the little fkers. after maybe a month but I like to veg 2.5 months if I can. Bigger's better in my books.Haha . Well the last time they knocked my door down for 10 cuttings and 4 adult plants . They came mob handed about 10 of them at 7 o’clock in evening. Was just out hospital at time with knee op . Took all my gear . When I got to court they fined me 100 pound , didn’t make sense to myself . All those officers probably on overtime to be fined that amount . Hopefully not tempting fate but I’m just back out hospital for a replacement shoulder joint lol .
I top many times like I said depending on how long I veg them for. I have some clones I'll take pics of tomorrow they're about a month - 5 weeks old and i've topped 2 of them 4-5 times and tied them down. Zero shock but I do it just before or after a watering / feeding so they have liquid to suck up and heal themselves. The next few hours /day you'll see the small sprouts standing up saying hello and ready to take over the job of being lead hand but this time with a buddy and when they get tall enough another week - 10 days and out come the scissors and snip snip.Do u only top them once , Can u keep topping the new shoots that grow . So it will increase the veg time . And how much does it shock the plants , do they recover quick , how long do u need to wait once u have topped to do it again . Would u not need a net to hold them up . I could go on but I think it’s the feeling of “what the fuck am I doing cutting the tops of my beautiful babies “ that stops me doing it but looking at pics on here after a little while the plants look amazing . Does it increase ur yield and by how much
Okay I took some photos of 2 Cherry Bomb clones the same age, one has been split a few times and tied down the other I've left alone. It was a bit smaller and a bit slower in growth so I didn't split her yet. If I had more clips I would have tied down some branches that are now ling enough for me to do so without snapping them off, I've squeezed the stalk and bent them over in the past but they just keep going back up if I don't tie them down so I tie them down.I top many times like I said depending on how long I veg them for.

When they get real big I lattice them with bamboo poles and spread them out.
I know what you mean by chopping your babies heads off, it seems cruel after raising them from just a little seed lol but they get over it real quick.
It does take them longer to veg them. One guy here MiMedGrower doesn't chop he bends and gets great results, check out his grow thread Mimeds perpetual thread he knows his stuff.
Increase Yield? I think so but the length of time it takes may kill the advantages, some here turn them in a month and get 3 crops a year, I'm lucky to get 2 crops in a year so who gets more is debatable.
