Copy that!! Hard to get hold of the square ones. I got a couple small ones but they only do for seedlings. Let me know if you find any cheap nibbz.

Those NL are looking great now. MUCH better than before. We're at similar stages with my second and your third now. I'm gonna lose a bit of growth this weekend tho when i transplant to bigger pots. When ya gonna start nuting? I gave my first batch about a quarter strength dose of the 'grow' stuff when they were about the same size as my second batch and your third are at now. Gonna leave it another week this time tho as I don't wanna upset them after I transplant.

Yeah man ive seen em but they well expensive!!!! Dont worry mate i will!

YEah tell me about it and they just keep growin! See i transplated the peat pots into 3 gallon buckets imediately as they broke the soil so the seedling process was slow but now they are in veg they are flyin away and ill not have to stop till the end which is a major bonus!

Ive got some nute kind of its actually bonsai food but its basically weak grow nutes with a lower N-P-K so its great to start them off on and soon as this fuckin complete idiot sets up this sale for me on ebay im gonna buy some of those and use them untill that time ill just sit tight and wait they are happy enough for now! and puttin on height very fast i might add time to move the lamp up on about monday i think!

lol, i hear you on pots. I originally bought turbogarden pots, rhought i couldsog. They were a dollar each, now i need 9 or 7 inchers that, is a lot. Ionly got 12 immature 6 mature thing going in ebb and flo. Anyway how aboutgrow bags?

Those plants look like they could be lst'd right now. You could use zip ties, twist ties yarn or pip cleaners. I used zip ties andbent them over as far as they would go with out snapping stems. Kept going from there. I am excited i will have like 5 or 6 tops so far on most of them. I topped one,and fimmed another.

good luck.

Mate ive had a bit of a ballache with the bagseed so ive decided to leave the one of the NL FIM'ed which ive just done the otehr day and as long as it has worked fine im gonna TOP the other NL if it turns out to be topped im gonna FIM the 2nd one n hopefully one will end up topped the other will end up FIM'ed so i can compare.

The bagseed wasn't doin too well all startin to go yellow n die off but when i moved them all round the other day they seem to have loads of new leaves sproutin and they are all nice and green so looks like what ever the problem was its now been aleviated, number 3 is topped anyway where it snapped clean in half when i was practicing supercrop and the other two im gonna leave untill i know they are healthy.

Number 3 got missed on the last watering and ended up goin dry lol (not havin much luck with this bagseed) but i watered it and its back to its former glory with a few dry crispy bits for added pleasure but its happy again so im not bothered its just a test too see what the weed is like if its any good ill grow it propperly!

Right Guys Catch ya in a bit
Nibbzy

Right then guys here he latest pics if they fuckin work this time! lol

The NL seems to be on fire but yet the bagseed isnt growin for shit... Looks like they will have to flower when they are ready!

Ive now moved the lights up and started them on some gentle nutes because the twats on ebay wont answer the emails. so ill be off to the hydro shop soon to sort out the Ionic stuff.

Right so we have got the 5th Nov

For some reason it only likes me puttin a certain amount of pics in a message so here are the pics from yesterday and today!

Ive now moved the lights up and they all seem to be happy as larry the FIM worked a treat and i can see 3 heads at the mo and possibly another 2 or 3 growin from out the centre so looks like were on for 5 cola's minimum so we'll see the difference in the plants as they grow!

As you will probably see NL1 is massive compared too NL2 this is partly because NL1 broke 2 days earlier but its mostly because ive FIM'ed NL1 and not NL2 and boy does it show. NL1 is short bushy and has much longer branches the lower branches are pretty much level with the top ones where as NL2 has one main phat stalk that is headin for the ceilin and the lower branches are much smaller and shorter. I dont know what the hell is goin off with my camera fone the pics look great on the screen but they are fairly dark in real life. It aint the best quality but it allows me to upload the pics a lot faster..

Anyway enough wafflin here they are...

7th Dec


Here is the FIM pretty much the day after i did it (the 7th)



8th Dec



Just to give you an idea of how fast they actually are growing here is the room on the 21st Nov so what 18 days since this pic


Ive decided im not gonna bother takin any more pics of the Bagseed yet they are growin but not an alarming rate so not much defference to report!

What ya rekon Matt comin along ey? Big difference to your sensi!

Yeah they are looking real sweet now mate. so much better than your last grow. Bushing out like fuck ain't they!!! They do look alot diff to my sensi you're right. my own fault tho, I really shouldda kept more of an eye on em. They were literally almost dead when i caught em lol. All the leaves were kinda yellowy in colour, and I had to remove at least 6 from each plant. The lowest ones, where they had completely died. They've picked up now but I'm still gonna lose another few days growth where I transplanted em!!! BOLLOX! lol. I'ma do what you did and stick em in bigger pots to begin with next time. Or at least transplant them alot earlier. I was having cashflow problems tho and couldn't even afford a bag of soil!!! lol. You gotta remember also that yours are under a 400w, mine are having to make do with only 4 26w CFL's.

My NL are really doin nice now tho, and looking at yours, I reckon yours are actually even bushier than my NL were at the same stage. Check back on my journal. That's good news mate, as you know, as my NL are lookin good now. I'll def get a bit of my harvest to ya and u can return the favour. send me a pm, let me know where you are.

How do fella... Ive decided to fuck my camers fone off! like you i finaly fount out to use my mr's digi cam and how much of a difference lol right enough babblin heres the latest pics so ya can actually see em.

9th an 10th Dec

lol no man im in the uk! lol the one i got is rubbish.

few more pics guys if its worked ffs lol

Holy shit mate!!! They really do look sooo much different to your last attempts. They're fuckin monsters! Much bigger than my NL when I started to flower them. Really pleased for ya mate!! You're using the Ionic stuff now right?

Any signs of sex yet?? My Sensi have decided to start flowering. Can't really work out why?!?! I just posted on my journal you should check it out. Good news is that one is definitely female.

Was just lookin again, they are def gonna give a bit more bud than mine I reckon. They're just so fuckin bushy and large mate! I'm hoping that's where ya topped em good. And crossing my fingers it works for me lol.

Hey fella... How we doin boys n gurlz?

Well all seems well in jungle.... Both NL are flying away and bagseed 3 is turnin into a monster... The 2 bagseed that havent moved in about 3 weeks suddenly shot up yesterday and put probably 6 inches on.

The NL i FIM'ed did the usual and stopped growin northwards when i did it and i thought ide done it perfect then all of a sudden it changed a bit and carried on growing! hmm........ thats not sposed to happen. She started to grow 3 new colas then all of a sudden the new growth in the middle carried on where it left off... Now by this time the bottom branches have completely caught up with the top main colas and if shes female im gonna get some real nice buds! and the 3 new colas i thought were, arent. They are actually fan leaves lol so now the middle has carried on upwards again but with 3 leaves at each node in like a tri-angle shape if that makes sense like one at 12 on a clock one at 4 on a clock one at 7ish on a clock instead of 2 at opposite each other, then two at 90° to those etc etc and upwards they grow.

Ive taken what mared said about pruning on board and decided to prune a bit... Ive grown all my plants in the last 5 or 6 years standard not taking cuttings or FIMing or TOPing etc thats why i decided to try this time new house new room new material and mediums etc so yeah im crossin my fingers...

Ive done it today after i took the pics of bagseed3 and before the ones of the NL so they look a bit bland at the mo because of it.

Ive also put them in flower mode now its night 7 of 12/12 and as of yet no real signs. I have to say that NL1 is looking suspiciouly like Poons fems so ive got my fingers crossed and im thinkin based on the shape of the plant that BS3 is a fem NL1 im not sure and the other 2 are not big enough yet however ill be very happy if i get a cupboard full of it lolsmell is gonna be an issue for me at the mo cuz of xmas and family so ive got to get a way of killin it off cheap and soon!

Anyway heres a few pics of em now

Nibbzy

Yeah man they're looking real good. I feel ya with the xmas thing n family n shit. Me and the missus have so far avoided anyone comin here but we been too close on too many occcasions in the past with unexpected visits n stuff. you wanna get yourself a couple of those air freshners that squirt every half hour n set em up for every 10mins lol. If it's anything like our house (with our cupboard in our frikkin dining room!!) then they work a treat. Pisses me off when I leave the house smellin like a bird mind you! But they work!

Lookin damn good, man. Good luck with the NL, I tried a NL X Haze and it didn't go so well. Yours look way better than mine did, keep it up and it will be some good fruity tasty bud.

congrats! Been wating, lol. My NL 13 days in flower. Urs cud teach them girls a lesson.rofl.
