I'm baaaack!

Hey, Mikey. Are you watching me?

Hey MsBotwin,

Just spent a little time away for the Easter Holiday weekend. Yes, I finished chopping my two ladies, they are curing now. I have the first buds dried, cured and stored in jars. The second chop was a few medium sized buds with a lot of popcorn buds, I like those popcorn buds for the pipe. I didn't bother to weigh any of it because I didn't feel like looking for my scale and it really doesn't matter to me. I have waaay more from these two plants than I can smoke in a years' time. Now I understand why grower are into edibles, budder (canna butter), and tinctures etc. Thanks for checking in on me.

How are things going with your grow?

Just a heads up for anyone that's interested. I have started updating my journal in the grow journals forum, instead of here. All are welcome to come by! I'd appreciate any comments or advice!

make me brownies?

Hey it sprouted on Friday day have past and I have only gave it water as a mist is water ....thanxs again for the advise hope my stealth setup pays off

Thanks for the Like haha idk if this is normal here but appreciate it

Thanks heaps for your support.... I'd love to hear what you and your friends have to say. Please do send me your levels and I will check them against mine. I do have to say though my friend is growing the exact same way at his house with no problems what so ever so is there a posibility I could be getting a nute lock out to some degree from an indirect PH level? All my levels are balanced AFTER adding nutes and I am know I am well below the "nute burn" levels for nutrient. Send me your email and I will send you a mountain load of pics for you to diagnose.... All of the same problem. I'm having trouble with the uploading for some reason so It'd be much quicker and efficient that way Thanks again for your much wanted input!

I never questioned the validity of this thread or of Ms Amber.. I am always nice to everyone..although I will not put up with childish behavior. I completely agree with you and take your advice to heart..

New Journal Update with pics. I tried my hand at LST.

It can take 3 or 4 days depending on strain. Maybe some take longer, I'm not sure. Longest I waited for a seed to sprout is about 4 days.
The way I germ is I drop the seed in a shot glass of water. Put it in a warm dark spot for 24 hours. At the same time, I soak my rock wool cubes in about 5 cups of water (6.0 PH) and 1 tsp Clonex Solution. After 24 hours, if my seed is still floating, I gently push it down, wait an hour and check. If it stayed down, it's viable and goes in the rockwool, if it floats, it's probably not viable, but I wait another 12 hours to be sure.

Get thanks for the love can't wait for my auto Hindu to sprout ...what would u say is the best way to germinate I planted on Tuesday the 19 it's the 21 and still nothing I left in a shot glass for 4 hrs then planted over a heavy watered pot planted and covered with two placti wrapp sheets as to create humidity and today I sprayed water over the top how long till I should. Start worrying about a seed gone wrong

Thanks MsBBB! It looks to me like you're doing great! The main thing I did differently this time was switch nutes, use additives and place my lights better. I'll post exactly what I feed my plants next journal update. Basically, I just use the Lucas Formula for FloraNova Bloom, with a few supplements.

Ms Botwin Master Grower,

I just checked out your Journal update, you are doing some serious growing there aren't you! Since you are an experienced grower, please feel comfortable to offer suggestions and tips on my grows, or on something that I am or am not doing. I am very open to suggestions (not that I always act on them). Thanks for keeping an eye on me

hey darlin, thanks for the messAge, between keeping busy and not really having a lot to say at the moment, i've mostly just been lurking the last few days (that and looking at lily bulbs on ebay is taking up a LOT of time lol)... hope things are grooooovay on your end!

I also started one on the Grow Journals section of the forum. I just copied those entries to my actual Journal right before I added my pics. the whole beginning is from my first grow. I didn't know how to start a new one, so I just edited the title! Not computer savvy. I am doing much better this time. I rarely make the same mistake twice, so I messed up many times during my first grow, but avoided those mistakes. I'm making new ones now!

Whoa, how long have you been keeping a Journal? I just peeked in and saw all of those beautiful plants. Is that your garden? You are doing very well for your second grow. Thanks for the pictures, now I have to figure out if I can sub to your Journal. Take care

New entries posted in my Journal here and in the Grow Journals section of the forum! Hope you take a look! More pic updates later or tomorrow.

Good to have you back with us. I know how that goes when you are not feeling well. I had an upper respiratory infection earlier this year that had me down for the count. Stay well, it's almost warm weather time.
