Hawaii Growers

Seems like you are growing an Indica dom that is starting to re-veg...
Look at the elongated calyxes at the top of the plant, they are starting to turn back into leaves..

Watch the rain and humidity Oahu... East side of the island has had 3 straight days of rain and/or high humidity.... recipe for destruction...
Seems like Oahu is getting hit more with rain than the outer islands in this last year of less than average rainfall~

some shots of kkday's garden. first picture is a teaser, you have to open the thumbnails to see the rest.... enjoy!!

Healthy looking plants!!
Big pictures are better!

Such things as a pinhole leak of light in a grow tent may disturb the plant to go hermie, how much does the moon when "FULL" affect the photo period for outdoor growers?
Also read somewhere that the moon cycles can be used to time a harvest and or major prune, can anyone elaborate on this?

I'd blow up all the pictures but it takes forever for a page to load if I did that.

LOL!!! ya, it's up at tantalus........may I ask what brought you to that conclusion sherlock?

there is one thing I almost forgot to mention. if you take a good look at this picture, you're gonna notice that one plant is greener than the rest. all the plants got feed the same and watered the same but that one plant stands out greener than the rest. you wanna know why is that? well I'll be glad to tell you....... that one plant was the only one that was given piss as fertilizer. yup. true story.

dr can I can bottel that and sell it in my shop. Dr greenhorn Piss will go great with my new line Puanani juice for a fertilizer!!!

So Doc?! How does piss make your plant change color?? Would it not be a horrible taste??

Cause it has nitrogen. And why would it taste bad? You don't piss on the leaves and buds, you piss on the ground. And ain't fertilizer animal piss and shit anyway???

it's not greenhorn piss, it's kkday piss.

urea factor ?

Piss has been used as a fertilizer since the beginning of human history...
Since you ingest (hopefully) fruits and vegetables that have the major and minor nutrients, those will get passed in your urine and feces...
Just keep in mind that if you take acid, aspirin, or take xtc..
that will get passed in your urine too....

One positive about urine... is that it tends to be acidic so it lowers the pH of the native soils of Hawaii that typically tend to be alkaline rich clays..
In your belly, once your liquid hits your kidney, the reaction that takes place there actually acidifies the urine and lowers it a full point or two...

Keeping this theme in mind...
People get freaked out when they realize that about 80% of our seed derived crops (tomatoes, grapes, etc) history is full of shit!!!
Many seeds have to be digested to become activated... It's our acidity that activates them before we poop them out!!!
Professional seed companies have to process the seeds we buy in stores with chemicals to simulate that process..

Just got my Hanna pH combo tester (98130)

Holy Crap!!! Tap water is 8.02 pH.....
Also I checked the chemical ph indicator (kind with color strip)... and it was off by 1.0 point....

I checked a batch of water that I thought I had gotten down to 5.9...... It was 6.7 ??????


As Puna Bud suggested earlier... It's a great investment!~!!!

Sheck~

if your talking about the emerald forrest, those plants aren't mine, they are kkdays. if you wanna see me plants, you gotta go to my journal.

the soil kkday is using is a mixture of fox farms, roots organic, and sunshine mix. it's mostly recycled soil from the past grows.

It's not at tantalus, lol! I was only joking. The last time I been up tantalus was in high school, over 18 years ago! I used to smash chicks up there all the time. Lol

With all the lil stuff like worms, flies, nutrient burn etc...my problem is "too much water."
Anyways, Thanks to the fellas at Green Hands of Aloha for always throwin' down the knowledge. Aloha Bruddahs!
