Hi...im manik :mrgreen: but u can call me joe.
This is the begining of my first ever grow journal. after much tried and tested
work iv gotten to this point ready to start the first proper grow :roll:
after smoking an amazing weed self named Mango Skunk and it
running out i vouwed to continue it strain in hopes of spreading it
for the world to try...or atleast the neigbhourhood for now :bigjoint:
Picture 1 is my entire set up at the moment, will improve when pay
check arrives ;-)
Picture 2 is the grow space with all my children, front pots are White Russian left and Shiva Shanti right, planted 4days ago, should sprout soon :mrgreen:
Picture 3 is the incubator and my White Widow seed and White Russian on the top just planted.
Picture 4 is Mango Skunk, one of 3left, taken from the garden (will post pics soon of other 2)
Picture 5 is a clone that iv taken from my largest mago skunk plant in pot outdoors
Picture 6 are my crappy yet usefull lights, 2x 16w 2700k and 1 15cool white.
new light setup will be made soon :mrgreen:
Any tips on removing pollen sacks from a male when they ready and on storing it
would be greatly appreciated as well as tips on the cloning, mainly about humidity, cooling and do they need water drainage while in the incubator?
Thanx allot to all the replies and help in advance.
Jah Bless!! :weed:

Here are the pictures of the other 2 outdoor mango skunks and some of the clone, looks as if its taken well to the soil and hopefully started growing sum roots by now :mrgreen: if anyone could help - how long does it take for a clone to hav a good root
system set up in order to change pots?
pic 1 and 2 - my second largest outdoor Mango Skunk.
pic 3, 4 and 5 - My largest Mango Skunk plant in a pot.
pic 6 and 7 - the little clone after about a day.
The big guy in the pot is where i cloned from.

Your plants looks pretty nice. As far as the clones go, give em up to 2-3 weeks but thas all pending on light and how healthy a clone you took and medium blah blah blah lol. So, yea close to 2 though im trying some clones now that I think have just started showing some veg growth after a week and a half

13watt cfls are still useful yes. you can get them real close and right up in places you can't get those big ones.. up to you though.. 23/26w is the lowest most people use though.

what size in real watts are those ones you have now? 65w ?

CannaCult - na, is pretty chilled here now, people are opening up to it more. the city bowl has rastas at almost ever shop corner, head shops

CannaBox - at the moment, i got 2x 15w warm white 2700k bulbs
and 1 15w cool white so in total its about 45w of diferent spectrumed light. 2morow ill be getting another 2warm whites with 18w each so
that'll add 36w or warm white and in total about 80w on soon to be
5 seadlings and 2 small plants...should work? im gonna keep the 2 plants
already growing under the 18w's and the rest at the back to fully
germinate and start vegging :mrgreen:

thanx for all the help so far!

new light and the grow room and has gone a very good green :mrgreen:
Picture 2, 5, 6, 7 & 9 are the new addition to the grow room, transplanted today and was drooping at the top, looks better now after being under
the light for a few hours. Going to top her as soon as shes fully recovered :twisted:

they look sick dude.

funny you say that cause cali has medical laws that allow sick people to grow for themselves and texas....well good weed comes outta there but the laws are really hard on growers like minimum prison terms etc. none of the states can have any real peace with the DEA always lurkin overriding state rules and using federal power to raid dispensaries and jail innocent potheads.

i used to live in florida but now i live in missouri

Hahaha! thanx man =)
yeah i always wanted to move to Cali, get a permit to grow and live out my days as a pizza resturant owner bt life just aint that simple =/
i stil hav no clue why we are viewed as criminals? we dont kill, weed doesnt kill either? almost everyones doing it? it actual heals things!! my views is they make more money raiding, selling and keeping dealers on police pay roll than if it was actualy decriminlized or legalized cuz then they wouldnt be able to tax on it! it grows freely like a weed and always will =D

peace man, thanx for all the positive energies. will post some new pics 2morow of how the other plant has taken to the grow room.

Jah Bless Brother!

awesome man! i actually met a girl today from port eliz. today at school, very nice to hear the accent again. mine is gone since ive been here nine years but anyway the police are rediculous and so is the goverment. money is the problem, you have all of these right winged high profile lobbyist with high ranking pull and tons of cash and huge corporations constantly throwing money at the goverment to keep these plants illegal! sickening.
im very interested to see more pictures!
my girls(hopefully) are doing quiet well/ day 5 of veg
