The continuing saga of the Diesel Ryder...and the birth of the Roadrunner...CFL Grow

[djruiner]

new pics...bettys lil buds keep gettin bigger and bigger...beep beep is starting to show a ton of hairs...i also trimmed a few smaller/damaged leaves off...and took off one lower branch to help with airflow and light...side branches should start shooting up again now

im hoping she has a big growth spurt soon....its taking its time tho...its like every part of this things life cycle is going in slow motion...hell i never thought it would get over 4 inches tall...its almost 8 inches tall...2 of those inches is just from this week alone...mostly due to the lower temps.but long as it keeps getting fuzzy like that ill take a 1/4 bag harvest if thats all i get...not like i dont have more thats gonna be ready soon.i just wanted a fast,potent harvest from the diesel...the other strains im starting soon is what will give me more yield.learned a lot from this grow...being my first real soil grow.so i know the next batch of babies will kick ass

doing daily pics now is fun again.both plants still doing ok...the diesel is swelling up a lot more and is getting fuzzy head to toe.the roadrunner is budding fast....a lot faster then the diesel did...still cant wait to start the papaya....if anyone has any good info on scrog growing let me know....just looking for some tips that i might not know yet...but thats all for tonight.....donkeysmells

btw the have you been considering trying the mollases flower feeding system? some sort of additive technique never used it myself but plan to try it, supposedly swells the buds majorly and I bet it does cause I remember what happened when we shot pumpkins up with sugar cane juice... they blew up! huge... ended up tough as hell though hard to eat.

I haven't had a chance to look into it but I have this saved.

the roadrunner is only a few days into flowering....ill be giving it molasses this feeding and then at 2 weeks they both will be on molasses and big bud.i normally feed them with molasses after it flowers up till a week before harvest.the deisel has been getting big bud and molasses for about 3 weeks now...2 more feedings with the big bud for it

Tough as hell because it makes it denser. Use Molasses, your buds will fatten up in 48 hours.

Looks a lil bit like my nyc diesel color wise, just shorter leaves. Looks awesome. Hope it smells like mine does!

time for some new pics....ive started doing some more lsting on it again...then i got carried away.it seems since the lower branches was never really getting light before.it was so dense that almost no light got through.so the lower branches are still developing.they are just starting to bud...i think when the main cola is ready to harvest ill leave the plant and see if i can get anything out of the rest of the plant..so i tied down all the side branches and moved the lights around so its getting more light to the bottom.i also checked out the trichs with my scope today.they are mostly all still clear,one leaf had a few cloudy and a few amber trichs...so not ready just yet...thank god...the roadrunner is still growing like a champ...but same as the diesel its staying short and dense...doing a little lst on it right now too...ive heard doing lst on a flowering plant is bad..but hell these things flowered at 2 weeks..never got a chance to train during veg...i think its more than worth it to get light to the lower branches...first up the diesel ryder (betty)...then the roadrunner (beep beep!!)

 

[djruiner]

and now beep beep!!!!

 

[djruiner]

lol damn you really tied that little beyotch down! awesome job. Buds look dankalicious too.

& honestly I've never had a problem with lst'ing a flowering plant. I've done it many a time with success, but to be 100% effective it should be started as early as possible. I'm lazy about it until it becomes something I absolutely have to address. Imagine that, a stoner procrastinating.
