Second/Third Grow(s): Onyx & BCN Diesel Autos and Wild Roses

MsBotwin · May 3, 2011

Usually, late at night. Sometimes I can't sleep, so I make plans instead. I should probably be growing a lot more indica dominant strains! A lot of my Autos are more indica type stones, just Not Jane Bond, or anything else I have growing right now. I think the Fruit Auto will be more of a sleepy stone and I'll probably let it go a little longer. Mary is supposed to be a more balanced stone/high, too. But, organization is needed for me to get anything done because so it gets confusing who has to be where, when, etc...

I had a slight mishap yesterday. One of my CFLs fell right on Jane Bond. You may notice in the last shot some burnt areas. Also an empty spot where I removed the worstly burnt bud. It is now drying for my smoking pleasure, so more on that later!

I know as well as anyone about mishaps and bulb burns, but there is a plus side, you get an early sample.

Thanks. And yes, the early sample is a plus! I'm planning to start flushing her for harvest soon, my burnt bud can help me decide how soon!

Pardon the change to your update post. I enlarge that one photo in my reply and it showed up in your updated post. So sorry, I have no idea why that happened.

Please forgive my ignorance, but you grow using a form of hydro right? What does flushing with your growing method involve? Just learning and curious, thanks.

MsBotwin · May 4, 2011

Hey MsBBB, I don't mind about the larger pic. Should have thought of it myself!
Well, to flush before harvest I give the plant just plain, ph 6.0 water, no Nutes. I plan do this for 5-7 days. Lots do it for unto 2 weeks, but last harvest I only flushed for 5 days and my buds didn't taste like chemicals at all. Since Jane Bond is in a unit with 5 other plants, I made what I call an Auto Flush Bucket. I took a 5 gallon paint bucket and lid from Home Depot and cut out a spot for the plant in the lid. Then, I made a hole just above where my water fill line will be, and feed tubing with 6 2 inche air stones into the hole. After lunch, I'll be going to PetCo to buy an air pump and it'll be done.

I know nothing about growing hydro, thanks for explaining how you flush your plants. Please show pictures if you can. You make it sound simple.

MsBotwin · May 4, 2011

It was simple! It's all done. I may borrow back my I-phone from my oldest to take pics now, instead of waiting.

MsBotwin · May 5, 2011

Well, folks. It's come to my attention that someone knows about my grow. I spent most of last night deciding what to do. I am pretty sure this person came across some pics or posts on here and it rang some bells. This person is not confronting me directly, but telling my daughter (19) to tell me this or that little fact about growing. He is telling her about coversations that I supposedly had with him that never happened in real life. But he had facts about my grow set up that I posted here. I am hoping for a pm from this person speaking to me, not my daughter. Unless I find out his intentions with this little game, I will be forced to shut down my grow. :cry:

I sure hope that you don't have to shut down your grow room. So, if this person put two and two together based on things posted on this site, that means that they are "probably" growing also. This is the very reason why a lot of people don't post pictures of their plants and Journals. I'll PM you if I come up with any ideas, I sure hope that you don't have to shut down! Damn, damn, damn!!!

Shutting down my grow is the last thing I want to do, but at this point I feel unless I can find a new location, I may not have much of a choice.

Thanks for the thoughts. I'm trying to work something out.

rene112388 · May 6, 2011

Well just let us all know! Wish you the best!

Hope everything works out for you! if you do end up having to move the op, kindly (or rudely is perfectly fine with me) tell that ass hole who has been talking to your daughter to mind his own business and leave you guys alone. (Unless of course he wants to trade clones

)

He is being set up for a little chat with me and my husband tomorrow. Just told him I need an 1/8. When he gets here we'll all have a chat. Hubby thinks that he just wants me to grow for him. Which isn't going to happen, no room for other people's plants. I figure I'll offer him my extra clone to keep his mouth shut and for half price on the last bag I'll be buying. Now that I am growing autos in my veg area for in between bigger harvests I'll never run out again. At least, that's the plan. But, we have decided not to shut my grow down. He is doing something else that's also illegal, actually I think it might be a bigger penalty, and if I called his job I could get him fired and his employer would most likely press charges. So, all in all, I'm feeling pretty confident that he'll be keeping his mouth shut and speaking to me, not my daughter, in the future.

Sounds like you guys have it all under control. Hope it works out!
