The Mad Russian

I like your thread Jesus, I am awaiting more pictures. The ohxak47 are so small for how many days they are but I know that they will grow when they are ready.
I liked your other threads. Keep up the good work.

Read the humidity level there and pictures to show as well. And it is assumed they are usually higher by what I read.

Jesus H. Christ

Mad Russian: The Lord has been watching your children as well. The Lord thanketh thee, (and I'll put in a good word with the old man about your prayer for a bigger fan.)

Now: Here's some things I'm thinking about... after looking at those depressing photos of Jennagrow's GIGANTIC fucking black russian buds: The Lord is sorry, but NO ONE should be that blessed - it just ain't fair!

The Lord is considering this current grow, and unfortunately, the Lord believeth he hath identified his own bunghole farming "technique" as a main cause for this crop being healthy, yet slow to veg:

* Hard soak, nute-free pot-up:

The Lord's standard operating procedure for transplant/pot-ups, is (was) to load the pots with as much water as they can possibly hold. No nutes. This always seemed like a no brainer... but I can see now the error of such thinking. These kids were potted 14 days ago, and the pots are still almost as heavy as they were on day one. This means the Lord can only perform extremely light watering/feeding at this point; maybe a cup of nute/water every 3rd day or so... which can only logically mean the plants are living mainly on all that nute-free water from pot-up day. I don't see a fix for this, other than being patient.

The Lord is also beginning to wonder about:

* 430W vs. 1,000W vs. total length of grow

The Lord wanted to run this grow on the 430W in the interest of utilities savings... However; If the grow goes significantly longer on the 430 than it would on the 1,000... well, that just wouldn't make Goddamn much sense, now would it?

* Healer: Heal thyself:

...or in this particular case, "Hey dumbass: quit being a retard, ya moron!" The Lord will now stoppeth typing, and go swapeth out that puny, girlie-toy of a 430 watter. I've been stepping over the thousand watter for weeks now, and what the hell did I buy it for if I'm not gonna run it?

* What an ass is the Lord!

* Peace & Love

* J.H.C.

Shouldn`t need a lot of nutes at this stage, I`ve heard foliar spray with seaweed product can work wonders but I`ve never tried it myself. I`m usually waiting for the flowering cab to be freed up so I`m not in a mega rush for vegging.

Can be good to give them a few feeds to acclimatize them to nutes before flowering.

Maybe the heavy watering is stopping oxygen getting to the roots? I`d try a lighter watering in the first instance, if they have to work a little for their water it seems to encourage growth (especially of roots). Anyways they don`t need that much water until they get older and bigger.

Have you considered setting up a second space for flowering? Maybe get a MH bulb for vegging under the 400watter and using the big lamp for flowering.

P.S. Just my 2 cents Ἰησοῦς man, I know it takes a certain courage to subject ones grow to the gaze of the unwashed.

my first grow..JHC.. took 12 weeks in flower and yielded 8 grams between two plants... and that's with living with "him" and his neverending supply of helpful tips.... most of them I even listened to..eventually

You are doing great and I really enjoy your posts... I am sure the goddess does too

Ah well, everyone has a bad grow

Well now - that doth maketh the Lord feel just a little bit better. I was beginning to wonder if you're not imbued with Lordly superpowers of your own...

My own Mary Magdalene... wait, MM was a prostitute? Hmmm... start over. My own dear dear wifey (that's better,) does not partaketh the Holy Weed, nor does she give a flying fuck about the Lord's garden. She figures all the tinkering keeps me out of the brothels and the bars (mostly,) so she just lets the Lord tinker away. God - but the Lord doth loveth his low maintenance woman. Verily!

I swapped the lamp today, put in the 1,000W with MH bulb. Lordy, but dat light is so white, it's racist. I want to continue using the lamp as heat for the room, so I'm cooling the bulb with a small a inline fan that runs constantly, and dumps into the room instead of hooking the big room vent fan up to it. The vent fan dumps outside, and is still running on the temp relay.

It's all good so far. OAT: 44, room is holding 73, RH 55%.

So sayeth the Lord!

Yeah, I didn't explain that very well. I didn't mean I want to use nutes for seedling transplants, but what I was doing was overnight soaks on the 3 gallon pots before transplanting the seedlings. The pots take on so much water doing that, it's weeks and weeks before I can even think about starting any sort of light feeding. The Lord is a bunghole!

I'm not sure yet if I'm going to clone this grow or not. Last time I tried that, I cloned too early and too much, and I had plants in different stages all over the damn place. I don't smoke all that much, so what I should probably do is just concentrate on seed to bud, one grow at a time.

Famous final words, I know...

Looks a little healthier, ya think?

It's one of the G13 Skunk freebies. The (hopefully) girl in back is Fruity Thai. There's 4 of each. I hope the G13 is a good smoke... and I PRAY the FT's are all ladies. The Lord doth loveth his Fruity Thai, and it's been soooo long since he smoketh!

Just now starting to get a little skanky in the room on day 27, and it's maketh the Lord goofy like a cat to catnip. I'll hook up the filter tomorrow.

OK question period (used to be big on cbc in kanada years ago) What is your favorite strain and why? And would you wish for world peace if you were crowned miss america? and finally.. do you think i look sexy in this pink frock?

I drink and Jenna types shit when I am not here, honest

__________________

Jesus H. Christ

1) Hmmm... The Lord was never awareth of particular strains until he tried his hand at secret gardening.

I ordered two types of seed for my first grow, Euphoria and Fruity Thai. Euphoria was a beautiful, fast grow and Godawful powerful. However; it causeth the Lord to become paranoid and majorly disoriented. It was good only if you were planning on going directly to bed after smoketh, or maybe as a remedy for such painful conditions as chainsaw amputation or maybe self-immolation. The Lord could barely walk after one hit of that shit.

Fruity Thai is a smile weed. It's strong in a sense, as in lovely creeper style, Indian underwear (always sneakin' up on your ass,) two hours passeth before you start to regain self-awareness, dope; but it is guaranteed, certified paranoia free. It's a strong, happy happy happy smile from ear to ear buzz. The Lord liketh to smile!

Perhaps the Lord should try another strain or two on his next groweth? Suggestions? Keep in mind, if it makes one even slightly uncomfortable, it don't fit the Lord's style.

2) If the Lord were Miss America, he would immediately run for the governorship of Alaska, where it doth appeareth the citizens careth not whether their elected leaders are even capable of spelling whirled peas, let alone espousing the concept.

3) Absolutely. Hubba hubba, sayeth the Lord!

4) Be honest now: Is there really a Jenna at all, or have you simply given your blow-up doll a name and manufactured an online "personality" for her? The Lord doth see that as becoming rather, uh... popular, with those bizarre little men who calleth themselves, the Japanese...

Peace & Love

ROFL Good reply

I hear in a few months there will be a plethora of LUI F3s going around, might be right up your alley?
I can barely scrape up the time to post on all the forums I do, nevermind posting as Jenna too. Although I can see how a blow-up doll would be a good replacement for a first wife, at least till you find one you really like.

Damn(eth.) The Lord's neighborhood hath officially hit that worstest part of early winter (for the Lord, anyway.) Warm days and chilly nights. It was 75 today and will drop into the mid 30's overnight. Damn hard as hell to get things set up where you can leave it all alone during this time of year.

The Holy Groweth room did okay during the day - got into the low 80s, but it was dry, and the fan had to run run run and the DIY humidamufuckah couldn't keep up.

I bought a little battery-op "meditation" fountain and raped it for the pump and battery pack. Added it to the humidamufuckah so it's like a little swamp cooler now. RH was up to 40% from 30% when I shut down for the evening, but I'll have to wait for tomorrow afternoon to see if it actually does anything. I'll put it on a DC adapter if it works. If not, I guess I'll bite the bullet and buy an honest-to-God humidifier. (...which will of course Goddamn guarantee the weather will immediately turn to wet, cold days...)

Or... Maybe I'll make a bigger DIY humidamufuckah, and then a BIGGER one, and then...

It's fun to play with shit, regardless.

Peace & Love

That's awesome. Nothing like growers for figuring out DIY shit.

That was a fun little deal, but it didn't make things any wetter. (Yeah, I know, so sayeth the Lord's wife. Verily!)

I uh... I made a uh... well, uh...

Oh, the Lord is so ashameth! I got CRAZY tonight, and made the world's biggest, most completely STUPID DIY humidamuhfuckah. It oughta work... but then again, I don't know?

The Lord just plugged it in (fire extinguisher at hand,) so I'll let it run and see if it don't get some wetness in the Holy Groweth Room. I'll put up pics if it works, but I'm gonna shred the file and disavow any knowledge if it's a bust. What a kluge!

And the Lord....in the 8th day....he created the humidamuhfuckah.... lol

Keep it up...i love DIY...

Jesus H. Christ

Okay, this is v1.0

It's fugly, but it kicketh ass!

v2.0 gets the following mods:

1) The soak/pack material needs to be more coarse, so that air can more easily flow through it. Swamp cooler batting oughta work.

2) The batting needs to sit on a grill some inches above the bottom of the coffee can, with all water/air exiting after passing through the batting.

3) The tub will get a cover and big holes cut into the sides just below the top.

4) The pump could be a lot smaller, but this one was free.

5) The dedicated fan will go away. I'll run the duct from the lamp through it.

Sweet(eth)!

Peace & Love

Dear Ιησούς man (good one FG )

You repoted in big pots too soon. The first two weeks need germ cups. Give em time to fill the cups. Then move em to 1liter pots, (another two weeks) and THEN transplant to something bigger at around a month old. Give em time to create a rootball.

With a large pot so early, they wont develop a good rootball and they ll take forever to grow, simply cause small rootball= little amount of nutes in the plant=> small plants => small yeild. Plus with so much soil and such litle roots, overwatering/oxygen and soil/ph problems start.

2) You gotta paint the surrounding walls. The 430W would be great if u want my opinion (instead of the 1K), if the walls were closer to the plants and painted with a nice reflective paint. Alot more light would be hitting the girls and your electricity bill would be lower.


Fruity thai sounds yummy. Will write more about tomorow when i have time.

good luck with your grow.

Jesus H. Christ

Verily. All of the above. Verily. Damn(eth.)

Eventually. Not todayeth, not tomorroweth, maybe not until the next groweth. The Lord doth have to work every once in a while... you know, like every damn(eth) day. In his next life, the Lord plans to be independently wealthy. Like... hmmm, like Prince Charles... uh, except for wearing those skirts he calls "kilts," and except for that rottweiler lookin' thing he calleth his woman. Yeesh.

This groweth hath been the greatest learning experience yet for the Lord. The Lord cannot thanketh enough all the wise elders for sharing the secret, Holy Knowledge.

Peace & Love
