The first blueberry i smoked was smooth as silk and the bud looked like someone dipped it in sugar, the guy sold it to me in and i kid you not a light blue package with a blue alien stamped on the front just like "frosty nugs" av.
 
Sing with me , Frosty nugs..... frosty nugs... it's time to smoke in the city.
 
sounds appetizing. Well thses things are gettin big guys. The 6 purple icings are coming along nice. Did a second round of topping on the black jack today. Those things are getting big and lookin really healthy. Think im starting to get preflowers on one. I wanna do some cloning this this coming week.

Im gonna post some pics and have a plant model show sunday night. l

Also the closet is in prime condition now. I think its finally "dialed in". Last year without the cool hood that closet was runiing around 93 on average. Happy to say that it is a comfortbale 77 degrees at 2 inches from the glass. Huge improvement. Hopefully it will get cold enough to turn some of this bud purple this year.
 
:bong1: hmmmm soo it sbeen a while.

I wanna start off by saying I got an 1/8th of the best bud i have ever smoked, yestereday. Smells like fruity publes. Been stoned for two hours off two hits:bong1:
wish i knew the genetics.

OH well. so i have been doing some "sexing" on the BlackJack. I have a definate male and have killed two "suspect" looking plants. They looked kinda like a male and I already found my mother so i figure not to risk it.

Im really glad also that my fastest growing plant ended up being my mom plant. Its also the biggest and most lush, fat plant that i have ever produced. hOpefully ill be cloning by sunday. Wanna go ahead and get this 1st crop going.

Can anyone tell me how long it takes after cloning to be able to flower them. I knew they are already sexually mature, I just want to know how often most of yall let your clones veg for?


the seedlings on the right are the Purple Icing Frost, a strand of many names.....

Sup ya stoners
I been a lurkin lately and been to lazy to post anything. I also got really upset with cloning and an unknown and unexpected ph problem. Ill get on to that in a bit as this may be a lengthy post, just depends on how much more i:bongin:

but we got alot to cover so here we go,
some of these pictures are a bit old but ill be posting them in chronological order over the next few posts

Did some cloning took 14 clones. its right at 12 days since i took them and they are looking a bit rough.

this is the way i cloned them
1 i cut them off the mother
2 i cut them again, under water at a 45 degree angle to get more of an exposed surface for root develoment.
3 dipped clone in Rootech cloning gel.
4 Placed them directly in clay pellets that i usually use for seeds
5 Put them in propogation tray and dome, and misting only the first few days.

they get enough light with the 4 t5's bu ti dont know what there problem is. I know one day i accidently left them under too much light and got them a little to hot for like 20 min and they looked rough. Ever since then their health from a visual viewpoint has been suspect to say the least.im not pleased with the results at all thus far
Im pretty sure next time i clone i will go with a homemade bubbler since i already have the materials.


the first three are of them right after. these subsequent ones are of them almost two weeks later.

Well with all that cloning going on, i thoght for sure i would get enough clones to grow so i decided to flower the two huge mom plants that i had cause my veg room is quite small. So the plan was to replace them with one of the clones and make it a mom for a while. (now im not even sure thats gonna work):confused:
who knows, maybe htey will turn around eghhhhh?

A few days before i put them in flower i noticed some of the leaves had a copper tone to them. SO while researching in the sick plants section i came acroosss a thread where some one was using the same soil and nutes as me and had similar problems. Come to find out they were having ph problems, so i decided to check mine. I thoht without a doubt that PH was not an issue with me. Im using Happy Frog potting soil from FOx Farm and their liquid and supplement package with Distilled water only. all of which i assumed to all be ph balanced.

Negative...gave them a healthy dose the i checked and ph adjusted, and they are lookin alot better. they are now in days 5 of flowering and i think they are starting the stretch. Things are bout to be excitin round these parts of tha woods, new strand, new setup, its on!




Sorry gotta remember to trun the lights off next time i take pics. not too much to see just yet.............the porn is sooon to be though.

enjoy

Well these other pics are of a very promising purple strand that i hear is rather nice. had theses going for a good few weeks now, i have managed to keep them small by mananging their growing container size. Due to small veggin area im trying to not use up so much space with plants that might end up being male.

Got six of these things goin
they need to be transplanted into bigger containers soon. I like to wait unitl they almost become root bound and then put them in their final container to see them take off. think im gonna do it this weekend.

Hopefully they will begin to show some sign of sex here soon, and if i have atleast two females out of the 6 im gonna keep one to clone off, and another one to put in with the two black jack's

sup IRISh
thanks for moozing on by. Cloning not so well, but hey im learning. Just wish i could take more and do them differently.
 
Hey Blue-

Nice looking moms you just threw in the flower box. Guess you've got your ph issues resolved. I'm using Happy Frog this grow for the first time and I've been having a few issues myself.

Sorry to hear about the cloning not going well for you- hope at least a few make it. I used Hick's method in the resource section for my first attempt at cloning- had 100% success- maybe you should check it out- super simple. 50/50 soil to perlite mix- in 2 weeks they were rooting like crazy.

I never liked fruity pebbles as a kid- but I never tried smoking it! If you ever find out the genetics on that one- let us know.
 
yeah fixed the ph in the flower room, now workin on the ones in veg. Never had this problem till i used happy frog,

i looked at hicks, but i been having a hard time finding perlite that didnt have added nutrients.
weird hu? never thought id see nutes already packed into perlite, but thats all they have a the the stores around me,
guess ill have to go up to the hydro store to get some.
 
so far they have stretched about 10 inches since i put them into flower last week.
gonna ease off the nutes for a few days
 
Having a little nute prob eh frosty nugs, have tried the local wallyworld? They usually have the unmixed its cheaper.
