Thundercat's Groooooooow

lol so i said I'd have some pics in a few days, and now over a month later still no pics.

You guys wouldn't believe the shit that has gone down. I had finally got my setup into running order, with clones, and moms, and what happens? The electrical in my house screwed up about 1-2 weeks after my last post. My room was still fine, but none of the rest of the electrical in the house was working right. So i had to call the landlord, and then she called an electrcian. Well before I could do that obviously i had to clear out my basement. So thankfully with the help of a friend I was able to move all my girls ( some 7-8 weeks into flower) across town. Really i can't complain cus all in all it went pretty smooth, it was just a huge pain in the ass. I also had to disassemble part of my room to make it look a bit more discreet. Now to top it all off once we get a hold of the landlord, and the electrician, it turns out no one has to even come into our house to fix it, the problem was out at the pole!!!!!!

So after a few days of screwing with everything, i got my plants back, and most of my room is set back up. I didn't set up my veg part of my room again (the part i took down) because we are hoping to move at the end of this month, so i have several clones still getting babysat for me. Unfortunatly all 15 of the little WW clones I had taking root died in the process of all this.

Now about a month after this all happened, we are still looking for a place to move, and the flowering plants are almost finished. They are only gonna be getting about 7-8 weeks cus of my time frame issues, but from experience I can say that this WW is pretty bad ass even only after 7 weeks. The mom is huge, buds everywhere, and good size ones too. I'm expecting 2.5-3 oz off her. The one surprise WW that i have, is turning out amazing, I'm expecting atleast an ounce off her, maybe more. Its a single cola plant that i never topped, and I am really hoping I am able to reproduce it in the future, cus the cola is Huge, and that is what the system i am running is designed to optimize. So far i havn't been able to get a ful tray or single cola plants, but if I can, and they turn out like this WW is, I think my production will go through the roof.

So thats whats been going on in my world, i hope your gardens are flourishing, and I'll talk to you guys soon!! Peace TC

TC- thats a huge bummer with the hassle of moving all your stuff and then the problem with the electricity was outside. the only upside is that you gained more experience taking down your set up which it seems like your going to need to do again once you find another place to live. those flowering plants you got going sound pretty nice and im sure they look BEAUTIFUL!!! cant wait to see some pics of them. sad to hear that the WW clones passed away, i guess that means your back to seeds for the WW? hope all continues to go well for you and hurry back for an update with some pics haha!

what a story!! good to hrear all is well TC

Hey guys thanks for swingin over for my editorial, lol.

Thankfully little, i did not loose all the WW clones, i lost the ones I was rooting, but I still have 3 more that were going to be the next moms. Those are bushing out nicely, and just waiting to be cloned off! Its a good thing to, cus all my WW came from one free seed I got with an order from the attitude. So there is no more, and for that matter i'm completely out of premium seed all together. I've got a big bag of bag seeds, but thats it, and i'd rather not go back to growing random bag seed at this point.

PICS TOMORROW!!!

Peace TC

Lol so again no pics, this time i went down to take them, and ended up harvesting the ones that were due. I'll take some pics thursday when i trim, and put them up. should be a pretty decent harvest.

Well the last 2 months have gone well!! Things didn't work out as planned but they never do so no biggy. I'm going today to put my first batch of perpetual clones into flower. They are about 2.5-3 weeks old since they busted out some roots!!! They are looking great all about 6-8 inchs tall should make some really nice single cola plants. I also have 4 monster plants flowering already. 4 or the 5 clones i saved from the electrical problem i had, that sat and vegged out for a month and a half or so. They are huge, and about 3.5-4 weeks since they showed flowers, and the buds are just stacking. I really will try to get some pics up when i'm done down there today. Hope everything is well for everyone, Peace TC

OK so my day went great!! Got all four big girls trimmed up and repositioned under the light better. Then put 16 of the 24 clones i had into the trays. I would have put 20 in but ran out of hydroton...... guess I need more if this is gonna be perpetual!! I didn't bother taking any more clones yet cus i still have 8 that are about 3 weeks old. I'll need to trim them up over the next 2-3 weeks before i flower more so I'll clone off those and my mother plant as needed to have another batch ready a few weeks later! Other then running out of my primary nutes yesterday, and hydroton today, everything is looking good!! I'll get some nutes this week once i get payed, and things should keep on rolling!


Without any more wait.............2 months after i said i'd have some pics up.............with none of the same plants as the last time.................. heres CATSLAIR!!!!

I want into the catslair, haha. Looks good brother. Don't think I've ever waited so long for pics... but they aren't disappointing. Crazy pitals on those buds. Super long. Love it. Nice clones. Sweeeet.

Oh, and btw since you been away, I found out I'm going to be a daddy for the first time in Feb. Can't wait for that. Thanks for letting me practise patience, lol.

peace my friend

Lookin good bud, I took clones off of all 4 outdoor plants I have incase 1 of them turns out to be worthy of keeping.

looks like a giant bush in the back top left corner of the first pic!! surprised that thing hasnt exploded the pot with roots hahaha. how far into flower are the girls you showed the bud forming??

Hey guys thanks for stopping over!! Nice to see you all.

Congrats JIG, all I can say is it sure changes things having a kid! Mine is 10 months and just started walking. She has been being a total hellion the last few weeks. I took her down to my room yesterday, and let her smell one of my plants. She got this funny look on her face, then tried to bite it, it was great.

Kush gl with those plants man hopefully atleast one turns out sweet for ya man!!

Little grats to see ya bro, that not only is a huge bush in that corner, there is actually a big bush in each corner off the trays!! I've got all the clones in the middle that are over a foot tall now, and about to really start budding. Then a bush in each corner that has about 3 months veg time. They are prolly the biggest WW plants I've had yet. The colas won't be as big as the ones on the original WW i had, but there will be a whole lot more of them. I'm expecting about 3 ounces per bush, and almost an ounce per single cola. Last harvest i had one single cola and a few that i had topped that were all the same age. The single cola came in at about 23g, and the topped ones ranged from 25-32g each, which is fine with me. From here on out its a numbers game, I'll keep taking clones, and filling the trays. I should have a pretty nice looking SOG before long.

I'll prolly take some more pics next week once the clones have something to see, and I'm gonna try to get back to at least updating once a week for you guys!! Hope you all have a great week!! Peace TC

Found this journal through Gypsy's, looking really solid bro!

Hoping you get back into the regular journal update rhythm!

Welcome Colorado, thanks for stopping by!!

I am trying to get back into the rhythm even if its just once a week. Here is the pics for this week! The clones in the middle have been showing flowers for a bit over a week, and have obviously stretched alot. I'm hoping that is about done, cus i'm running out off room. I would have liked to have my lights lower for them, but the bushs in the corners are so big I have my light up all the way. I think they should be about done, cus they seem to be really budding now. The other 4 bushs have been showing flowers for about 5 weeks, and are filling oout nicely. I'm gonna be cutting them at about 8-9 weeks. Well hers the pics, I for got to post an over view the other week so i got some this time, and some bud pics too! I just trimmed out the bottm 3rd of the clones which is why they look a bit bare at the bottom, but it should be all good.

























Hope you guys enjoy i'll be back in a while to check in with ya!! Peace TC

Looking good bud! I have kinda skipped through your thread, but I seen you was growing WW and switched to another strain. Was the WW not a good strain for you, and if so where did you get the strain. Just curious because I have WW and WR from GHS I was going to start in the spring.
Peace Kushcrosser

Actually Kush this is still the WW. I was growing some mango also since i started the hydro project, but the WW is all i've got now. I loveit, been a great strain and seems to grow pretty easy. I wish it was GHS, but it was a freebie seed i got from g13 labs. I only had one seed, and she has been alive since last spring!!

How do you germ your seeds TC? It looks like you're using Jiffy pellets. Any soaking or just pop em in the Jiffys and water?

Right on...I got some freebee's and the sharksbreath looks like the only 1 out of the 3 worth trying. The other 2 look like millet(tiny)...oh well, they were free.

looks great nice setup u got

Colorado i just usually stick them in the moist jiffy pellets, in a warm spot. I havn't germed any seeds in while, but i usually have pretty good success.

Kush if i remember correctly my WW was a tiny seed, and it has turned out sweet! I just found 3 super skunk seeds i had stashed with my spores from when i moved. I didn't know i had any more beans!! I'm not sure if I'm gonna put them in, I don't really have much more room, but we'll see.

Hey cannabis thanks for stopping over. The setup is coming along well. I'll be in this garden till next August, then should be moving to a mediical state, and willl hopfully be able to set up in just a slightly bigger room, and be able to be a bit more organized. My flower room is currently only 8'x7' which doesn't seem bad, but with about 4.5x4.5 or that taken up by trays, it drastically cuts down on working space.

Well i think I was right and most of the stretching is done. I havn't noticed much more in the last few days since I rearranged things down there. The bushes are stacking some weight nicely, and the single stem plants are starting to get some nice buds on them. Tomorrrow i'm gonna be taking another batch of clones to get them ready to go into trays in a few weeks. I'm not gonna be on a 2-3 week schedule yet, cus of how talll the plants stretched on me. I'm gonna wait to add more clones till i can take the bushes out and lower the lights a bit atleast for the first week the clones go into the trays. The taller clones will be low on light for a few days, but i think in the end it will all work ok. I also need to getmore hydroton before I am ready for more clones in the trays.

Well guys i'm off to work!! Have a good one and i"ll talk to you latta! PEACE TC

Right on TC...its always nice to find MIA seeds...lol Me and my woman have plans to move to a medical state too, its prob going to be Mich, or New Mexico. Hell, might not have to move if Cali passes Prop 19! If it does pass, I look for the domino effect to happen across the U.S.
Anyway, I will be harvesting my big girl in about 8 or 9 days : )...should get close to a Lb. Getting coke can buds on her!
