Mixed Bag

OK I am starting a new journal mostly for my own purpose to keep a track on my grow.
This may be temporary, we shall see.
I have a few plants growing and will add some detail as I can. I'm vegging about 20 females, mostly clones, I have 4 White Widow. 5 G13 x Abyss, also 4 G13s that are seriously stretched and prob a waste of space in my room.
I think thats it.
My camera is broken so current photos are difficult but not impossible.
I will get a couple on shortly.

Here is an Armageddon, its a lovely plant with massive leaves



The same plant again. Alas its a male. I had to cut it down and incinerate it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



This is my vegging area, it is still a work in progress. I am going to paint it all white instead of using mylar.

I have had disasters of varying kinds that would take a while to go into.
I vegged a few outside this year. A couple got mown down but I salvaged one of them. They are all flowering now but dont look the healthiest Ive grown.

I also have some that were sprayed and then put under lights too soon so the leaves are all scorched some of them badly, the others, not so much.

I just bought some white paint today to do my vegging area with lets see how long it takes to get off my arse to do it! :-?

Put another Armageddon into flower a couple days ago.

The Cinderellas have been in flower since the 10th Oct and could be cropped any time, Very quick.

I am about to put some more plants into flower in the next few days.
I have some seedlings that have stretched really badly (they look like beanstalks:-?) I will hopefully get a good main cola from them but thats probably all. I already put one of the stretched G13s in the flower room a couple of weeks ago so it will be ready for christmas.bongsmilie I am putting a widow in too, she should be ready about the same time.

Im here and ready for the rest lol
Welcome as always Mr West.

Waaaa BUD ROT!!
I just discovered it in one of my cinderellas.
I have no idea what causes it but the guy I got the clones from said he got it quite a bit with cinderellas.
The plants are really sticky where they have so many trichs, I dont know if that is a factor.
This is my second crop and I had no problems the first time round.
Initially I just cut the affected part from the plant but have decided to harvest it now before it has a chance to come back.
I have been feeding with just water for the last week (not long enough) so will flush her through tonight and harvest in the next few days.

I will take a pic before I chop anything down.
my camera is not working properly, I dropped it and the screen broke doh! :wall:.
It means I cant take any decent close ups and have to just aim and guess it is right. 10 shots and I might just get 1 picture lol. I dont know what I have until I upload them to my pc. :-?

what strain was the plant? I have cropped mine tonight, just to be on the safe side.
I have 3 more in flower Im watching closely.
like you said, its hard to spot from the outside but I must have noticed something to pull the bud open because I dont like to handle them unless I have to.
I check them daily now.
Good luck with yours.
I am going to upload some pics of the one I cropped tonight. ...watch this space...:eyesmoke:

Its quite strong, which I expected because of the amount of trics, but I thought because it's been cropped 2 weeks early. the buzz might not last as long. I was wrong.

The buzz is light headed initially but it keeps on coming.
Its taken me about 40 minutes just to write this! :roll:

I have a nice tingling sensation, too.
All I have had is 2 spliffs. No pipes, bongs or anything of that nature.

This is the second crop of clones from the same mother plant, and it seems better than the 1st. I must be imagining it.

Anyway,
Verdict: Nice taste, not harsh but not noticeably smooth either, it not very sweet. Almost a dry taste, reminds me a bit of hay.
7 out of ten is maybe generous.

I have to shut up before I read this tomorrow and wonder what the fark I was talking about!

I cant wait to see how the others turn out if they survive the full term.

found more bud rot on another cinderella.
I think the cause was a lack of air flow, My fan packed up so I only had a 6" desk fan to move the air in a 4 x 6 x 8 ft flower room.
I have got a new 12" 3 speed fan now and hope that will be the last of see of it. i think the strain is more susceptible to bud rot than most.
The widows and armageddon have not had the same trouble (touch wood)

Not too much, prob just 2 or 3 grams when dry. Its not going to waste, Im gonna put it in with my leaves, (already have) for making hash. The last lot I gave to a friend and he pruduced some lovely bubble hash so I am going to do that again. It wasnt much but I didnt have many leaves, this time I will wait till I have more.
Maybe by feb or march.
I have a dozen plants in my flower room now. it full up pretty much.
Hoping to get some images soon. another day or so touch wood.

I have a couple of new fans now by the way. I could still do with a bigger more powerful one but I hope I have stopped the rot! so to speak lol.
