Rev. TheNatural's Latest Grow.

O.K. my brothers and sisters.

We appreciate those who responded to the last grow we did and our results were wonderful as we grew the M.O.C. Carnival Strain; " wich was possibly the most potent strain I have grown from Europe, " and my own Strain called; " Special G " and I will include some pics from that grow.

This will be our first Grow Journal and we are extrememly excited about this grow as " The Spirit " has devulged many other things about this Tree and we are really fired up about what we are doing with the Tree now and how we have truly found, how to get the most out of them in a Organic and Natural way.......we have done it.

Unfortunately, there will be some things that I will not be able to share with my brothers and sisters right now, but in time, I will share to all that will listen, but now is not that time as many convictions concerning the Tree has come too me and all things must be worked and shared at the apprpriate time and when the appropriate results have been achieved.

The info about this Tree does not come from books to me, but by inner Spiritual knowledge.

I never argue and especially about the ways I grow....I just listen carefully to my heart and it never guides me the wrong way and my herb would make the most tolerant user " such as myself " feel the peeling back of the eyes after the first toke and the smoothness of my herb is incredible after only seven days of drying.
Once cured for several weeks, it is so smooth, that all you can do is smile with every toke.

Everything that I do is Organic and I take building my soil to a whole new level as I know that " LIght and Soil are crucial, " but light and proper conditions during Veg is actually of the most importance. "

We only grow enough Trees to supply ourselves and a couple close family members, that also need the medication.

Our goal is to take the least amount of Trees and get the most out of them, by using a combination of conditions and not just a huge amount of one or two things like a enormous amount of light to achieve the goal.

We will do only four Trees this time and I will show you boys and girls how to get 8 to 10 pounds from four Trees and only using the equivalent of 2000 watts of lights.

It takes me a while to update at times, but I will share everything that I can with you guys as I can.........Can you say Christmas Trees.....that is what we will be growing,LOL.

Here are a few pictures for right now of our last grow that we did in beds.

Bed Growing is an incredible technique that I must write something on, as the results and behaviours of the Trees were really incredible and a must for any experianced soil grower to do, at least once, to put it under his or her belt.

Here are some pictures and when I return we will start showing how we build our soil and some pics of the latest setup and away we will go from there.

The Strains will be " One Kandahar Indica from M.O.C., one Carnival sativa dominant from M.O.C. and two of my own strains that lets just say for now " I developed " that is the best medicine that I have ever had, as it is to be used in extreme moderation as the most tolerant of my brothers will not walk after the fourth toke, but this Strain will laugh in the face of pain and elliminate it with ease and naturtally..

For those with short attention spands......The Good Rev, likes to ramble.....so know that ahead of time. LOL.


Blessings To All,

Rev. TheNatural

Good morning brothers and sisters.

I am not one to explain every detail as to why I use the things that I will disclose in my grows.

However, the grow and Trees themselves will speak for why I use these things.

Soil is a very serious business to me and I build mine organic all the way down to the bugs and worms that love to live in my pots and help enrichin the soil and feed my girls and sometimes boys!

I like to keep worm bins going as they supply incredibly rich soil for my girls and other plants.

I simply start with bags of soil " I am not a miracle grow fan as I do everything organic, however the Organic Choice soil has proved it's weight in gold and it is up to me to build it anyhow. "

I take my bags of soil and put them in the large bins and add red worms to them.

I feed them fruit and Veggie scraps and even small amounts of fish over time, I add most of the ingrediants below to the soil.

It gets blacker and richer by the weeks as the worms feed and the beasties in the soil populate and feed and I also add a scoop of yard dirt to the bins in order to bring in other beneficials, that enhance the girls and make them feel as they are free..

To build the pots below, I used a mixture of miracle grow Organic Choice fresh and the rest of the soil was from the worm bins.

I start with a rock or pebble layer; " this first layer is intended to act as a air pocket and over time the roots will reach around and bring some of the pebbles into the higher levels of the soil for even better aeration along with the passages created by the worms. "

Then, I run a hose from an aquarium airpump to this layer " we are also running pure medical grade oxygen to the roots along with the air pump that continuously pumps outside air to the roots, we only give several liters of pure medical oxygen at night when lights are out........Yes, Co2 will also be used, but more on that at a latter time. "

Then we put a screen over this layer to at least somewhat seperate it from the rest.

The second layer that we use in our build up is plain clay kitty litter " at least a couple inches worth. "

Then we take our mixture of fresh and worm bin soil and fill up the rest of our 25 gallon pots " YES, we are going to grow TREES I told ya, LOL. "

Then........pots are done!

Truth is, I have seen grown and have grown cannabis that has been potent and decent yielders, from some of the most poor soil that most would even dare to put a seed in........however these were outside grows.

It is light, that we must comptete with the most, but it can be done and done within a reasonable bounds for allot of growers, that do not want to run 5000 watts of lights to get 10 pounds worth of medication.

Done through a combination of several properly applied factors, such as " building good soil, " it can be done.

So am I for right this moment....more later.

Be Blessed,

Rev. TheNatural

Here are a couple of transplants of my strain that has yet to be named.

They are from Bagseed, but all I can say is that we do things to the seeds that nobody else does and with some other applications, we have developed a extremely vibrant and potent medication.

They have been in the Big Pots now for a week and I just trimmed some more budsites off of them awhile ago as these will be bushed to the extreme.

I have a big smile right now, because one of the things that I also wanted out of this strain, was to have nice and thick branches.....you should be able to swing on these.lol.

Blessings,

Rev. TheNatural

Now then, here are some pictures just taken.

After we took the pictures, we trimmed off some more of the budsites, so that these girls can get really bushy.

We had an unfortunate event with our Carnival cuttings and the one I was trying to save just fell short of getting roots.

We are now down to three Trees " two of my own yet to be named Strain and One Kandahar Strain from M.O.C. that is supposed to be pretty potent medication if you will. "

We will add two more from cutting's of these girls in a couple of weeks and still hit our mark with no problem.

we will do better from now on with the pictures, but some of you guys already know how that works trying to snap shots with these big H.P.S. lights.

Kind of a little boring right now....I am sure, but this will get very exciting in the coming weeks.

Be Blessed,

Rev. TheNatural

Just to make a quick comment on using large pots like these 25 gallon that I have.

When you use large pots and of course have sufficient light, most of the energy at first is going on beneath the soil as they develope a rooting system and in these pots, they can really stretch their legs.

So for a while, you guys will not see as rapid a growth from these girls as you would in smaller pots, however; " When they do take off........whoaa...Nelly!

Blessings,

Rev. TheNatural

I am very happy so far, with the growth coming on these girls already.

Budsites are popping up everywere as we did allot of first initial trimming and the vertical lighting is incredible and really keeps them compact.

We have a couple more starins to add to this grow in the next couple of weeks, we will still only be doing five to six trees total.

Large Hedge bushes on the way, LOL!

Blessings,

Rev. TheNatural

Here are some pictures from this morning.

We have started to get more things together for when this grow gets really going and as you can see, we have done some changing around and now have most of our light trapped and being utilized much more efficiently, by the use of good ole Mylar.

We just topped the little Kandahar Strain and the other two of my yet to be named strain are really getting thick and staying low and bushy as I want with this vertical set up.

The growth as you can tell, is still not extreme as of yet, but remember that they are in 25 gallon pots and will continue to put ample concentration into their rooting system, before they start really exploding from the top and we can all enjoy their growth rate for sure then.

In the next several days, we will be adding two Carnival Strains to this grow and then the total number will be five Trees and that is it for me.

I am a firm believer in the conveniances and joys of Re-Vegging, so these girls, will be my girls from now on and will be Re-Vegged indefinately and remain monsters.

We will still hit the 8 to 10 pound mark and they will give this every three months, being Re-Vegged.

We make allot of oils and food with our Herb and help other family members out, so none goes to waste and none is EVER SOLD.

You come and visit the Rev. do not ask to buy a joint of my mind blowers, just kick back and enjoy the fruits of my labor and my payment comes in the form of my loved ones being without pain and my select friends smiling ear to ear as they feel their pineal gland open with every toke,LOL.

Onanother quick note:

For those that are still not trying Vertical lighting.....you should.

Vertical is great and keeps the girls very short and bushy and even though their diameter increases, it is still better to me, to not have to fight them, when they get to the ceiling.

These will never be allowed to the ceiling, but oh boy.......the diameter will be funny for sure with these " Hedge Trees. "

It will get more exciting as things move along.

Blessings Friends,

Rev. TheNatural

Good morning.

Girls are really continuing to stay low and bushy.

I will be ready to start my Carnival Strain,, by next week.

The little Kandahar has sprouted her next two budsites, after being topped and I will give at least one or two trims from the next sites that she developes.

Since things are moving along at a little bit of a slow pace, here are some pictures of just a few other lovely's, that I like to grow.

Be Blessed,

Rev. TheNatural

It seems that ole Rev. Cancer here cannot stick to the original plan as of yesterday,LOL!

However, I could not pass up the oppurtunity to grow three more small plants after some friends that are dear to me, decided to allow me access to three White Widow seeds.

True enough, I have never tried White Widow of all Strains as I just never really got the oppurtunity or just did not order them.

I look forward to trying them for sure and I will keep the three small and maybe even do a bonzai.

So, once again here are some pictures of how I set up my three little 10 inch pots this morning and they are germed and ready to cook for a while,lol.

If I get a male out of the three, I will do some breeding also later.....who does not like to make their own candy flavors,lol.

Be Blessed,

Rev. TheNatural

Good morning.

Just thought I would update this morning.

My two unamed Strains, are starting to really look nice and bushy.

As you can tell, one is Indica Dominant and one is Sativa Dominant.

We trimmed some more budsites off of the Kandahar Strain and one of the White Widow has sprouted and our first Carnival Strain has sprouted.

One White Widow did not make it, but here is what we will actually begrowing as I must always keep it under 10 plants.

We will have two of our own Strain and one Kandahar Strain, two White Widow Strain, two Carnival Strain.

Still a little boring right now, but these will be our girls and only girls and look forward to sharing as they continue to mature.

I only give around 15 hours a day of light during Veg as I get wonderful root development this way and it does not bother the Growth of the foliage at all and in fact helps the plant to become much more rugged.

By the way my friends, White Widow is pretty common " even though this is my first time growing it, " and how many of you have grown it and what is your overall opinion on this award winning Strain?

Blessings,

Rev. TheNatural

Good Morning!

Well, this is the first day of flowering, " actually last night and we decided to go ahead and flower them as to have some medicine by christmas or new years. "

Of course, by not letting them Veg for longer, we will cut our yield down, however we should still get a couple of pounds and then we will Re-Veg and by their next go around, they will truly be some Huge Trees and we will hit our mark.

The white widow, did not germinate well, but that is O.K. by us as our strains we are working with, are our favorites anyhow.

I have a few cuttings going right now as you can see in the pictures and also my technique for doing cuttings with cups and mason jars really works well for me.

So, we will have around seven Trees that we will be working on this grow and that will include our own 1sativa and 1Indica and two Kandahar 90% Afghan Strain and one or two Carnival Strain.

I usually do not have time for allot of detail, but I will continue to update.

This setup is really working well for me and the use of the Mylar and Vertical lighting, has won my vote already as being a better technique than overhung lights.

They are perfect little compact bushes, that will in time look like Large hedges,lol.

Blessings,

Rev. TheNatural

Ooops, do not mind the extra picture I accidentally loaded as that is my huge Mint Tree.

She is better than a dozeb individual mints that are all connected into the same trunk as a Tree.

Just one of my many little " plant projects " that I work on......Rev

Well, here are some updated pictures of some of the girls.

They are really looking good and it is still funny to think just how much work is going into the roots at this time, because of the huge pots that I am using.

We wanted to get some medicine by at least New Years, but after that, these girls will Re-Veg and become true Monsters.

I have no doubt, that we will still pull better than two pounds out of seven to nine Trees on this grow, even though we only Vegged for three weeks and some of them are actually being rooted during flowering, wich does not harm anything, just cuts the yield down the first go around.

Still a little boring right now, but in the next few weeks, things will get more exciting and I look forward to the sweet smell of victory again.

I have to say, that it is a little difficult to see and not be here, but I am very pleased at the Vertical Lighting and how that and a combination of " bushing them out " has really kept them compact and the branches are very strong and I do not see having any problems with them wanting to bend under the bud weight.......just how I like them.

The Medical Oxygen at night and Co2 during the day, has not hurt either for sure.

Blessings,

Rev. TheNatural

** Never confuse my words with EGO...I got rid of that a long time ago.
I simply Share my experiances based on, my experiances and what works very well for me. **


Good morning!

Well, it seems that a few things have changed and I have a few moments this morning to make a entry or ramble,lol.

We started out with a goal to take four to five Trees and grow them in 25 gallon pots with supplemental " O2, Co2 and a 1000 watt H.P.S. and a 600 watt H.P.S. and a 400 watt equivalent L.E.D., with also plenty of supplemental light coming from a South Window and to get close to 10 pounds of medicine. "

This goal will hands down be reached without problem, but it may take a little more time as I have had to make some changes.

We will still only be doing 4 huge Trees that will be our Re-Vegged Trees from now on and will hit our goal.

However, we need some medicines by the Holidays and are now Flowering earlier than anticipated and will be using a few extra " Flowering Clones " for this particular grow.

After this grow and the four main Trees are Re-Vegged for a second time, they will definately be allowed the Veg time to achieve their full potential, but it may take several more months than we wanted, do too the circumstances.

I cannot go into detail, but I do certain environmental triggers to whatever seeds I use and make very potent medicine out of it.

However, I am not always able to get rid of certain little genetic mishaps like Hermie genetics, that have been " in my opinion and belief only " way over used in the production of Feminised seeds.

So, one of my prized Sativa's that was started in this grow, had to be cut down yesterday, as it started showing some male balls.....sadly along with many brilliant budsites, but I do not need those male genetics at this time.

So, here is the straight up on this one.

The first picture is of a little Carnival Strain from " Ministryofcannabis, " we have taken three clones off of her that will be added and of course she will be one of the Monsters in a few months.

We have grown this Strain before, without environmental manipulation of the seeds and this is one of the most potnet Strains I have grown.

The next picture is of the " Kandahar Strain from M.O.C.. "
This is my first time growing this particular strain, however with 90% Afghani genetics and a 20% T.H.C., this should prove to be a medicated favorite and she is proving already to be a brilliant grower as she is and her budsites exploded everywere in a matter of three weeks.

She looks a little less full as I have taken about five clones off of her also to add to this.

The last picture is of a girl that I got from Bagseed and run through my parameters as a seedling.

This unknown, is showing just how much Indica she really is and something tells me that she will be incredible.

She has put most of her concentrations into the top six budsites, that is now down to five as I took one as a clone also.

I could easily help her to create more budsites by doing a little extra for her, but I am a firm believer that when you can....just let them do their own thing.

She does have a very high fan leaf count, but that will only continue to help her achieve her intended massive size in the coming months.....very pretty girl too boot!

The Sativa that had to be cut down, will be replaced with another Kandahar, so after this grow, I will still have no more than four or five Trees, that will give me incredible medicine and always the option to run through a few smaller flowering clones in the future grows, with the Re-Vegged beasts.

Rambling Over and Be Blessed,

Rev. TheNatural

Have not made an entry in several days, so I figured that I would.

Still a little boring looking, but many exciting revelations have already started to come out of this grow and I will name a couple.

We still only have three trees in their permanent pots at this time, but in the next week, our clones and a couple others will be joining the group for this grow and then we decided on six trees after this grow, that will be here to stay and be re-vegged.

This is the first time that I have grown Cannabis in pots as big as these " 25 gallon. "

I love growing in bigger rubbermaids, but that is when I have done bed growing and there would be multiple plants in one large growbed.

Never one in a pot this big for singles.

They have done pretty much exactly what I thought they would do and that is put allot of concentration on roots and less visual growth on the outside " at least at this point. "

However, this is exactly what I wanted as I know that these girls in six more months of being re-vegged, will turn into beasts and will hands down give better than a pound every three months " pound a piece ."

The goal is to shoot for ten pounds when of course they are at their largest.

Why need so much medicine every three months?

We make allot of medicine with it for our family and it takes allot of Cannabis to make some of these natural medicines that cure and help.

Smoking Cannabis is wonderful and has many benefits, however the smoking of Cannabis is petty in comparison, to all the other beautiful ways that it can be used, for those that are educated enough to understand apothecary.

The Kandahar Strain is the second largest Tree right now and looks a little skimpy, but that will change very soon; " I have allot of good feelings about this Strain, being 90% Afghan genetics and a very high ratio of THC for those that even grow it under decent conditions, if it is as good as the Carnival Strain is, this will be one to possibly report on for others to consider.......the Carnival is shockingly good smoke....maybe the best I have had, besides my own Strains. "

They were only vegged for 3 weeks as to be able to have at least some meds by the first of the year.

The largest bush right now, is my Indica Strain.

She is so leafy and her budsites have stayed very close to the main stalk and have not yet tried to make their way from the canopy of leaves, but that is just her way and she will truly be HUGE and something that you will all enjoy in a few more months for sure and not to mention that her medicine would make White Rhino look like Swag,lol.

For the type of bushes I like to grow, I cannot say enough about how pleased I am with vertical growing verses the ole brightness from above technique.

Stems are incredible and branches, budsites are not acting like they want to stretch to the sky and they are just compact and gorgeous and will only get better in time.

Once again, we are using around 2400 watts of light and a good amount of supplemental sunlight also......plenty of light.

Enough rambling, Blessings.

Rev. TheNatural

My, these girls are really taking off considering how young they are.

The first picture is of the Kandahar strain and look at it at already 22 inches high and the buds that are being packed on!

It was just a sproutling less than two months ago, so we are to say the least; " happy with their growth under our parameters.

The next picture is of my own strain and it is about two weeks in total age older than the Kandahar; " This Kandahar Strain is already showing it's yield potential, so if the smoke is as good as MOC says, this will be a keeper for sure. "

My girl is doing what she always does in her bushy elegance and always produces a powerful medicine.

The next one is the sproutling Carnival Strain that is no longer a sproutling and a couple weeks younger than the Kandahar; " grown this strain before and it is a mind high like none other. "

Will continue to update and the last picture is of a Carnival clone and I have some other clones working.

You guys just sit back and watch how these girls will turn to monsters over the next several months,lol.

Blessings,
Rev. TheNatural

Well, the girls are still growing and just better than four weeks into flowering and considering no longer than they were Vegged, I feel really good about there progress.

First picture is the Carnival strain and is packing it on nicely and is the youngest of the group.

The second picture is our own that started from Bagseed and she is really getting stincky already.

The third is the Kandahar strain and is doing very well and will definately prove to be a high yielder and good medicine.

It will be nice for the family to enjoy these medicines.

Also added a couple others, that I will show later from Bagseed genetics and I have a feeling these two will be special........

Blessings,

Rev. TheNatural
