Got more work in on the ladies. They were looking at me all sideways n talking shit. So I bagged em up in fabric smart pots (this feels more natural to me) and hosed em down and crammed em back in. I watered deep n heavy, so I'll just foliar only for the next couple days... They look like some Epsom will do them right in the meantime.

Merry Christmas Mo!

Thanks Idle, Merry Xmas brother! Hope you had a good one ?

Shoulda probly waited a lil longer for the roots to take hold.... But, I was bored, soooo... Started super cropping.

I'm shooting for an as even canopy as possible come flip... With mixed genetics, can't have too high of expectations come the end of flower, but trying to at least get them off to a nice even start.

Banana Fruit Snax #2

3 nodes. Super cropped top two to let the bottom third catch-up. Tied the top node downward, just pinched/cropped the second node. Bottom node is now roughly 1 inch from the top node and at the same level as the second node. Looking for the bottom two to catch-up to the top at the same time... It works out in my head, but let's see what reality wants to slap me in the face with next

Next up, Slymeball F2 #1


3 nodes. Top node was roughly 1-2 inches taller. Second and third nodes are virtually level already, so only bent and tied down the top to the same level as the other two. She looks a lil pale/pissed still, but I'm confident she'll snap out of it here soon... Will not initiate flower until they all look happy n healthy.

Next, Slymeball F2 #3


This one was a bit more tricky, but I got it figured out. The bottom node had the biggest branches. Second/middle had second biggest. Top node smallest...top node and bottom node virtually on the same axis/parallel/inline/same path as each other...overlapping, which ever description gets the point across. So, didn't super crop, but rather tied the second node horizontally and at same level as bottom node. Then tweaked the top node to ride diagonally/in between the other nodes at the same level.

This is the smaller one of the tied-down bunch. But tops from all 3 plants so far are no more than roughly two inches apart.

Next, Arise x Slymeball


She's still recovering from having half her limbs almost shaved completely off, plus the transplant shock I'm sure shes dealing with now... The sickly looking branch was the top main branch that got it the worst and it shows. I'll wait for roots to take hold before pinching and bending her any further at this point. She's slightly taller than the BFS from first pic, but I can already see where I'm gonna bend her to bring her to the same level.

Gonna veg these at least until the flower tent is completely pulled, so 2-3 more weeks for processing those, if not sightly longer... But my jar of flower (last one) is looking very depressing to me even though I've been cutting way back on my intake as of late...wayyy back. Almost empty, almost there. What a balancing act...

These dudes look like they're some beasts in heat...

balls are a dropping, and splooge will soon be flying. They searching for some teet....tits man, tits, they need that cambodian breast milk damnit!

Gotta get these stripped and separated next. They get the least attention and most lack of water and environment control yet are the healthiest looking plants I have going currently. Just proves to the saying that less is more and also that I may be giving the ladies too much love and need to back off with the touchy feelies for a bit...make them dry out, thirsty, and ask me for it instead of just shoving shit down their throats at my personal discretion...ya, plants teach me deep life lessons on the regular... Now, just gotta start listening and adapting better?

Purgatory clone looks doneski so she got chopped last night
WhippedOranges #5 getting there. Probly ride her out a few more days
Reversal action

Definitely working. I was gonna give her one more spray. But from my understanding, you're supposed to stop applications when you see male parts...so, I may or may not give her another squirt tonight.

I'm kinda excited. This is my first ever attempt on reversing (aside from my ill thought out attempt on the one that was already in mid flower before I started ?) and the cross is fire. GG4 ?x 9lb Hammer ?

 

[MO_Grow]

The experimental 10Fold reversal that was already in flower when I started got chopped last night (all branches that weren't hit with sts) and is hanging. It looked done on the sensi and the treated branches weren't showing signs of reversal.

Despite my previous post on the topic, I've still yet to chop any of the males at this point...I did strip them (fans) last night...and took cuttings to collect from with the lazy man's style with cuttings in a solo as one measure. But also, tonight, instead of any hitting the chopping block, I started plucking sacs that were dropping, but not yet busting open... Figured this would be the easiest, cleanest means of collection for my situation.

Neked
Gathering my thoughts and intentions...Making observations and decisions as I go. I'll pluck for another few days maybe til I can effectively isolate single (live) branches of each plant. Then collect conventionally, letting them pollens drop.

I'm playing a seemingly dangerous game here, but taking a safe (er) approach and feel somewhat more confident in it than my initial non-thought out approach coming in. I actually have a few different ideas/approaches kicking around in my head on how to go about it moving forward... Let's see ?

 

[Buck5050]

Congrats on the reversal! ?????

 

[MO_Grow]

Thanks Buck! Never really been a fem guy. Only ones I've ever bought were the Jack H fems from Seedsman and a fem pack from greenpoint... I've only ever ran a couple of the Jacks and those HammerHead testers.

All the books I've read that touched on breeding always said to steer clear of fems. So I've always just gone the regs route. But I really like this cut and would like to keep it around without having to keep cuttings alive for extended periods of time. Figured this would be the easiest way to accomplish that. Plus I'm hoping to collect some fem pollen and hit my WhippedOranges and possibly some other stuff too here in the future.

 

[MO_Grow]

Congrats on the reversal! ?????

^^^I got 5 red rockets ?

 

[MO_Grow]

The branches I nearly shaved completely off have since healed... The top right knot, bottom left, and mid section on back side. All healed up and are feeling strong.

Arise x Slymeball

So, started bending

Successful surgery doctor Mo! Looks fully recovered and ready to go. When’s the projected flip date?

 

[Jewels]

Hey MO, I hear you thinking out loud and it makes your posts very enjoyable to read.

I thought if I upped the plant numbers I'd fill it up and yield better, but didn't work out that way for me. Just proved to be too much work. I like getting my quality time in with fewer plants to focus on ?

This.
I contemplate this a lot.
Honestly I still don't know the answer.

"Floor = Bad"

As far as words of wisdom go, that is all I got. No sense in Illuminating the floor~ if you can see the floor,,, there should have been a bud there. Whether it be through training or the addition of another plant, I think the secret is catching all the photons that your lights are emitting.

In my own garden, I run out of fixtures before I run out of floor space. For myself, if I am disappointed the blame typically is on me. I am disappointed in myself for trying to grow a plant outside of the Primo illumination Zone.

I quoted your post because it rings true with me.
Keep thinking out loud-

This is one facet where I am trying to find my way.

Happy New Year
Best of luck MO

@Idlewilder Yup, I noticed the new growth was coming in thick and dark green so took the bandages off to check. It's only been less than two weeks. I knew it would recover but with the extent of the damage was not expecting it to be fully recovered so fast...and those limbs were literally barely hanging on by a hair, the slightest of tugs would have pulled them completely off... this plant is so pHucking amazing!

I would have liked to have them flipped already but I'm taking my time to get them right this time. So, honestly not quite sure on the flip date... Not scheduled yet. I still have a runt in there that is still much smaller than the rest and still doesn't have enough branching to tie down yet... she's also been really pissy looking at me and was going through some necrosis on the big fans, new growth is coming in fine now, but she was looking real rough for a while. I think I topped it one night, then transplanted on the next, she didn't take it very well. Again, I'm allowing her to live this time since the count is so low. But not gonna be entertaining runts any longer in the future, just not worth the time, energy, and space for me.

I need them bigger. As they sit, they're not gonna fill up the 4x4...I need them to. Plus, I still need to harvest everything in there and get it cleaned. 3 clones have come down so far, but I still have like 3-4 clones plus the 8 HammerHeads to get to. They are however probly perfect size to flip in the small tent they're in currently.
But I need these to yield a decent amount for me. With all the edibles I made I ended up running damn near out of my head stash. On a typical day, by myself, I usually take anywhere from 3-6 bong rips when I wake up each morning, toke a bowl on my lunch, 3-6 rips as soon as I get home, again before I eat dinner, and a couple more sessions before going to bed each day. I'm so low I've been limiting myself to 1 rip before work, no lunch bowl, only a couple rips before dinner, and one or two more rips for bed... Been slummin it man!??

Yield this flower round, I can already tell, is not going to be anywhere near what I was expecting, so not sure how long it will hold me over for. So, I need to fill the space up as well as I possibly can, which is gonna take a bit longer. I'm hoping to be ready to flip in a couple weeks time.

Now thinking about it, I think I'm gonna dunk some 2020 bagseed to fill in the spaces, prop them up to canopy level and just run them 12/12 from seed, or however old they are when I flip, but they'll be youngins. If they don't really amount to anything, that's fine, just bagseed right?! But I also feel it's possible I'll find some bangers in there...been playing with some fire ass plants in 2020 so I think there's guaranteed heaters to be had... Only one way to find out! Getting wet right now ?

Thanks Jewels! I feel I'm blabbing at times, but these posts are just as much for me, for future referencing and recalling, as they are for everyone else's enjoyment.

I hate being able to see the floor in my flower tent. As you mentioned, there should be buds there and don't need to be illuminating the floor. I think I read in one of your recent posts that you're also struggling with this...or at least that more plants don't equal to more buds. I think that's where I'm gonna start directing my focus. If I gotta sacrifice a lil more time and push some flip/harvest dates back to get them to fill in better then so be it, it'll be worth it and I'll also be less likely to be disappointed with myself and my yields.

I can grow pretty consistently quality-wise, but yield seems to always be hit n miss for me in this 4x4. I upgraded when I noticed I was pulling excellent quality and almost over growing my 2x3x5...I felt it was time, I was ready to go bigger and harder. I've finally got my illumination in this 4x4 on par now, after a lil over a year being in it, now just gotta fill that space!

Happy New Year Jewels! Let's bring that heat in 2021?

Damn man you like to smoke down haha. I’d smoke a bone on my way to work, then a bowl on the way home. A bowl before and after dinner then either a bong or another soon before bed. Since quarantine I have to wait until the before dinner bowl most days...rough lol. Did you take all your edibles already? I just got an Ardent FX so I’m going to try making some gummies

Looks like you smoke down on essentially the same schedule as me...morning, after work, before and after dinner, then again for good sleeping measure ...I used to also sneak a bowl in on my way home from work, before I got home to take my bong rips, but don't have that luxury right now. Only getting a before dinner bowl is really roughin it! I hate being limited, especially, despite the fact that I grow. I haven't run out in years. I guess I technically didn't run out as I still have like 2-3 grams of MacV2 left and one of the 10Folds I cut down is dry enough to smoke, although it isn't much at all. But I've got others right behind it so the buds are starting to replenish and I can get back to my regular program here soon...and make some more edibles. Hopefully I'll have enough to do that this pull, but honestly don't think I will seeing what a horrible job I did at filling my canopy space.

Oh yeah, those edibles have been long gone...they don't last around here for long. I still have a little bit of butter and a little bit of oil, but not enough of either to bake anything with. I cook my food with them here n there.

Doood, I dropped acid for the first time ever on New Years Eve night and had some shroom tea to wash it down...OMFG I had the best night I think I've ever had!! That shit hit me fast and hard. I've never experienced visuals like the ones I had...I saw and was one with eveything...it was pHucking amazing to say the least! I don't know how cannabis is considered an hallucinogen, I don't think I've ever actually seen visuals no matter how retarded I try to smoke myself...even with smoking on top of eating edibles. Just never happens for me, but most things don't affect me as easily or as hard as most others IME. But that shit on New Years, whole 'nother level shit that I've never experienced in my life and didn't really think was possible til now. It lasted nearly 10 hours and no shitty comedown or fiending for more, like any of the man-made drugs I've ever tried in my lifetime. Clean and pure bliss at it's finest! I'm definitely a fan!!

Have fun with the new toy! I've been contemplating an attempt on them, but I'm sure there's gonna be a learning curve and as we all already know, I don't got it like that right now! Keep us posted?

If I took bong rips before work, there would be no work hahaha. I like putting the butter on toast, bagels or a sandwich. I find it hysterical when I realize I’m drooling 2 hours later lol.
Sid and tea?!! We’re you trying to work through some shit or meet your fairy unicorn godmother? Good god man hahahaha. I haven’t had a chance to meet Sid yet but I love me some boomers. I hear you on the other synthetics, although Pablo’s shit is nice once in a while lol

Hella funny...?I laugh at myself a lot on my way to work when I look in the mirror and realize how stoned I look ? Like, ooops, I look tore tf up ? good thing I typically always look like that and I start early in the mornings so can always fall back on the "I'm tired/sleepy" excuse. But I still get my shit done just fine though.

Sid and tea?!! We’re you trying to work through some shit or meet your fairy unicorn godmother? Good god man hahahaha. I haven’t had a chance to meet Sid yet but I love me some boomers. I hear you on the other synthetics, although Pablo’s shit is nice once in a while lol

That... And trying to make up for all the lost fun I didn't get to have in 2020? ?2020? I've tried just straight boomers once in highschool, but don't think I had enough as I couldn't stand the taste and texture and got a cap stuck on my molar, so I gave most my portion to my homie. Once I think last new years, grabbed an eighth in capsules but was scared to take it all, so only took half... Barely felt anything, was impaired, but still no visuals.

And again a few weeks back with that other half eighth that I still had... Dont think it really did anything again, was drinking and smoking also, but don't recall any visuals then either. This time, I tried eating raw and same deal as back in highschool...I couldn't get down with the taste and texture, and again got a cap stuck on my molars? so my brother ground them up and made into tea so I can get it down... Not even entirely sure I drank my whole cup, but I think the Sid did most the leg work here. I'd definitely recommend trying if you haven't already...super clean and dope ass high for sure!

I'm glad your experience was an enjoyable one.

It's funny how different areas have different slang. We called them zoomers. My first time was New Years Eve '84 or '85. No idea how many times in the years after that, but it was a lot.

First time I rode the Mindbender I was zooming. That was a year or two after three people died on that ride(details in link). Not a fan of rollercoasters and rarely shroomed out in public, so I'm not really sure how that came about.

Actual hallucinations or visual effects beyond tracers were pretty rare, but there were a few good ones.

Only hung out with Uncle Sidney a few times, likely less than a dozen. Had some fun, but the high wasn't as enjoyable and the recovery was a lot more miserable.

That's interesting. My high was extremely enjoyable. Visuals were very vibrant and very abundant. Despite not getting any sleep that night, cause the trip lasted so long (and the futon at my brother's has got to be most uncomfortable piece of shit I've ever tried sleeping on), I felt absolutely great the next morning! I'm not going out looking for it but if it comes up and/or is offered in the future I'll be accepting with wide open arms and a grin upon my face ?
