You seem to be managing quite nicely!

I did like the 'solid', methodical work vs the 'waves' of work when you garden perpetually but found I was not anal enough to maintain that sort of military like schedule. Perhaps now that I am a bit older and more patient.

im doing ok i haven't put a single post of 9 plants in yet lol but i make up for it by using bigger plants and tying the branching around lol. i've realized i think its more about filling the posts "area" with branches if that makes sense. but obviously I cant wait till I can do full posts with 9 plants with a really tight sog. should be a real sight to see ;)

That is a great tutorial!

Thanks bud! they are incredibly easy to make (and much cheaper to DIY then buying them). I wanted to make sure to include the end cap mods cuz I've done that in the past and just added more aquarium safe silicone and it dripped (not bad but it did). i wish i thought of that back then lol. as stoners, sometimes we goof on measurements lol.


thanks for stopping by

Happy Pharmering!

I definitely dig the DIY and thats how I do most of it.

If I ever 'grow a pair' I will drop the $$ on cropking's 10' x 36 rail NFT setup. 540 plant sites...

Greetings Fellow Pharmers!

Well, I got really sick a week ago and havn't been able to tend my garden myself. But I was able to leave some written instructions for a friend with not much experience but perfectly capable. He even ended up saving some of my plants lives! (some in the cloner who were already rooted well) even prevented a flood and saved a pump from running dry! :whew so I was very lucky to have him in my place.

Im feeling better myself, I did probably 2 hours of work in my garden and started feeling really dizzy so that was it. there is still things so be done but he did a very good job! thanks buddy
:passingjoint: ( <--- When u can ;) )


I took pictures but I will post a real update after alot of rest tomorrow. I have a few things that i need to do, since I couldn't be in their or see them for a whole week! i missed them :( but they are looking nice, and i have some nice pictures to post up for you guys tomorrow.


Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Pharming

Okay just one. this picture is from Day 33 of 12-12 of some of the "original 16" so they still have about 22-27 days (32 days at the absolute latest and would bring them to 65 but i think they will only go to 60 days) left




catch ya'll tomorrow :)

Happy pharming!

Greetings fellow Pharmers!

I took a lot of naps and slept a little better (but not great) and am feeling a little better. :)

Ill start with some clone pictures:

These are the clones that caused drain line problems, they are kinda big for their cloner now. Ill be building new posts for them tomorrow and they will be going in very soon to begin their 12/12:






These pictures are of clones that had a harder start due to water temps a while back, but i let them try to survive. They don't look that good but, literally anything with even a little bit of green has roots and will grow out of their funk, dunno how long it'll take em tho, i think they've been in the cloner for 3 weeks maybe? taking forever. Ill be doing some clone maintenance today after I take another nap.. im still pretty tired.



for example, this plant:


looks very sad :( but actually has roots and should recover soon :)





Than there are these clones, that were taken from my plants that are 2 weeks behind my original 16. they are responding now, lots of them have roots and most want to root and are showing nibs :) looks like I could get a full house outta this cloner (it fits 70)

on the 14th or 15th, I put in one post that had 9 plants (Yay my first full post! woot woo) and gave em a trim aswell for their day 1 because i knew i wouldn't be around for a week and didn't want them to get crazy under someone else's care. sorry, looks like i only took 2 pictures of em:

so they are at about week 1 plus a day maybe.







These plant are on day 19, they look a little nutrient deficient but like i said, ill be making them new nutes today when im feeling up to it.

OK here are some shots of nuggy development:








And some group shots:












they are only on day 33 and they will probably go till day 55-60. (65 at the absolute latest but i doubt it, maybe like one or two plants for a real couch lock, sleepy stone)


and Ill end with a few root porn pics ;)








Thanks for stopping by!

thanks for the kind words, Im glad you like em :) personally I love em. the biggest plant so far grown in these tubes was just over 2oz. never grown plants bigger than that in here, but i bet i could if i wanted to :) they seem like they would support slightly bigger trees, but i wouldn't go to much bigger. since Im trying for SOG ill be going smaller.

Greetings Fellow Pharmers!

I Tried posting these pictures the other day but I couldn't upload for what ever reason, but here they are now :)

They are some group shots from Day 38 of 12-12:











They've really been putting on some weight, and are actually very dense aswell.

a couple of these plants are going to finish smaller than an oz, but some of these plants will finish well over an oz and close to 2 oz, so i guess it'll even itself out ;) . I'm hoping for a pound from my original 16, It looks to me that I'll reach that goal but only time will tell. I originally was going to take these girls to day 60 but I dont think they will need that long, but if they do need to ill have the space still reserved for them :)


thanks for stopping by

Click to expand...

whats up l0g1c4l thanks for stopping by. sorry i missed this earlier. the plant you are referring to is doing pretty well. its not my smallest plant either. It quickly grew into its nodes if that makes sense. lol. she is as tall as her sisters at this point but defenetly didn't start that way. she's grown alot, and fast too. I'll be sure to get a harvest picture of her and compare her to her original photos :) also, the pictures from now compaired to my heavy trim pictures is quite shocking i guess is the word lol.
*tears form in eye* my little girls are going up so fast..


haha. hope you guys enjoy the journal :) I might start a different journal in a month once i officially establish a constant perpetual sog. but untill then...

Happy Pharming!!

Great looking pics and update there Mystre!

I have a question if you don't mind.. So, your nugs are a pretty nice size, If you would of trimmed off more branching earlier on (meaning like a second trim) would they yield the same but just bigger colas? like those plants you think are going to be about 2 oz... if they had no or less side branching (like you anticipated) would they just have bigger nuggs instead of more but weigh about the same? sorry if it doesn't make sense lol, I may have medicated a little much ;)

also, can we get some new root shots? Im curious how much the roots continue to grow near the end. thanks in advance!

Keep up the stellar work! :)
