Hey herbtoker! Good grow you have going. I'll be keeping track of the progress for sure! I have a similar grow starting in a forest as well. It would be cool if you could check up on my grow every once and a while to share some thoughts. Same goes for anyone else. I'm going to need some help!

thanks bigguy, i actually just got some need oil for bugs on other plants around the house. ill try that and see what happens. the bugs are those little tiny green ones that jump really high and are fast as hell so its impossible to grab them. i think they might be aphids... not sure. ill let you know how my neem oil works :mrgreen:

thanks for the compliments! ill be watching your grow too. i feel the same as you, ill be needing help and can use any advice you want to give me so whatever you have to say id love the help!

Nice grow herbtoker your plants do look great i plan on topping all of mine so i can get the maximum yeild out of my plants to. Take a look at my journal and leave me a thought. Later.

Personally i think topping would improve any yeild because your making two main cola's instead of one thus increasing the yeild of the plant.

went to check the babies today. they are doin okay... the 3 i topped dont look so great. one looks alright but the other 2 arent lookin so hot. :? the last pic is of a topped plant (i think an easy sativa). it looks pretty sad. i think i messed that one up or did something wrong

the other two that i didnt top look awesome!:mrgreen:

i also still have a bug problem. many of the fan leaves seem to have a bunch of bug bites in them. i might have to try something other than what i used.

let me know what you think! any advice or comments? :mrgreen:


and i said i would give a smoke report from the rokit awhile ago. it kicked my ass and was super smooth! i took one hit of some bud i have and it knocked me out :mrgreen: was by far the smoothest smoke ive ever had! i definitely recommend it to everyone out there looking for a nice new bong!

The topped ones will be OK, they take awhile to fill-in again, but when they do you'll be amazed at their growth. Are you feeding them any nutes, if not, now might be a good time to start.
I don't know what hell to do about the damn bugs either. The neem extract solution helped some, but somthing is still munching on mine too. I think that it may be frickin little grasshoppers, wtf !?!
Good luck and Happy Growing:mrgreen::peace:

i gave them miracle grow a couple waterings ago. just a very small amount. i need to go get my fox farm stuff cause im not gonna use the m.g. when theyre flowering... i would prefer to not smoke ammonium nitrate and all the other good chemicals in there...:spew: do you think it will be okay if i just use the m.g. for a little while longer, then switch to f.f. before the start flowering?

i hope they fill in better... one of them looks good but the other two's tops seemed like they were dying and were shriveled up. hopefully the water helped. ill go more often, see if they perk up a bit. ill try to get there tomorrow, if not wednesday, and take more pics fo ya'll :mrgreen:

if the bugs dont leave my damn plants alone i dont know what else to do! the neem oil helped a little bit, but even the new leaves had bite holes in them. argggg.....:cuss:

any more ideas and advice would be great!

If all you have is the m.g. all purpose then use it, you want something that is high in Nitrogen right now and M.G. definately is.
You're a long way from harvest yet and you'll have plenty of time for flushing nutes out later. I would say use it at maybe half strength once a week, unless they showsigns of nute burn. Then make it a little weaker next time if they do, otherwise its all good.
As for the bugs if you figure anything out let me know too.:mrgreen::peace:

i have some m.g. thats 30 10 10 and some thats 15 30 15 so im using the 30 10 10 right now. im going to water with it tomorrow and take some more pics :mrgreen:

thanks for all the help big guy. i dont know what i would do without you... id rep you if you could tell me how cause i never have been able to figure it out!

damn poison ivy... i have more under my arm and on my elbows and the worst thing ever is having it on your hands!!!! :cuss: it hurts and feels like there are a million blisters on every finger every time i pick anything up! its so hard to stay away from it though... i think im going to wear full protection next time i go.

i hope the new topped ones look a little better tomorrow. they look terrible when you can examine them closely. i hope water and some nutes will help them perk back up. ill have pics for you all tomorrow.

The 30-10-10 is great for veg, switch to the other when it's flowering time, or maybe you'll have your fox farm by then.
To rep someone, you just click on the scales in the upper right corner by the post number. And don't forget to put your name so people know who's repping them.
So what, full body condom next time:hump:, just kidding man thats gotta suck, definately be more careful.:peace:
