Indoor Delightful Fall Mix

:thedogsbollocks: I'll second that, Sniper! Noods, she a fabulous strain, the whole package,... Aromatics are intense,.. mine was Kaffir lime and a little lychee during bloom-- it was difficult to keep my nose out of her goods!-- and held close to that through cure... Boot-to-the-head potent as well :Cool bud: LOL!

Whaaa! :slaps: Noods, the pics didn't load! I think I know the flower-type though,.. maybe!...yellow was pretty uncommon not so long ago, now, it's all over! Is it a heavy, waxy look to the petal/sepals, and not very many flowers, or pastel, satin sheen with lots of them? .... :woohoo:New spikes baby! :d5:... nice job brudda! Ah, that's the bark I'm talkin' about too,... mix in about 20% perlite, and you're set for media,... soak the bark with some wetting agent overnight, and this will do wonders for better water retention,... after it breaks downs some, it'll hold more,...Also, they like to be a bit crowded in their roots-- a common orchid trait! Unless it's absolutely stuffed in there, stay with the same size pot,... when you do go up, make it a small jump-- like from a 4" pot to a 6", 6 to 8,... orchids do better with more frequent, less concentrated feedings,... the nute's wash out pretty fast, especially in fresh media!... I go 3x/month, at 1/2 strength generally,...(more often/weaker for mounted ones)... :roflcry: Oh my good brother, just saying "no" to synthetic nute's are ya?! :grin: I have no wish to muck up your grow Ju-Ju my friend,... I'll look into it,... something like Botanicare's line, liquid nute's, would likely be a better choice than heavier stuff that needs those soil 'crobes to do the break-down dance,... I've given them an occasional taste of their Pro-Gro,... seemed okay with it so far,.... ***... Achtung! cold drafts on the blooms from that window may cause them to brown-out on you! Move her away from it at night,... this can also trigger rottage in the roots,...
>>> okay, chow-time!! more later my brother... :coffee2:
 
I've got a clone from the green poison fast version that finished in 5 weeks of 12/12
 
Waira, that sucks that you can't see the pics. :dunno:If you feel inclined, here's a link to the album they're in. Maybe you can see them there...

I repotted her twice using this bark. I did it like you said, in small jumps in pot size. But I didn't wet it down and didn't add perlite. After listening to you, I can understand the need for perlite. The thought of adding it never even crossed my mind. I was happy when I was able to add all the small, crumbly, fine bits at the bottom of the bag, being able to fill in some of the space in there...:slaps:

Ok, now I got some fiddlin around to do! :thumbs:
:Sharing One:

My weed's flowering along nicely, dear friends! The Fast Amnesia has a claw fetish going on for about a week now. I thought it was over feeding -might have been, but I doubt it- so she had just water for a few days. But that didn't change anything. So I fed her again and this morning I see maybe ...three?... less claws.
"Incredible Sulk"
But she is the biggest of them all and is flowering nicely and quite rowdy in there, pushing all of her neighbors around, trying to grab up all the light. She would have been awesome in descent soil and a bigger pot. But in this small tent I can't use big pots cuz then I can only do one or two plants. Oh well, klein aber fein!

Lights are raised up as far as they'll go just for that girl. Has me lifting all the other ones up on all kinds of stackable stuff.

Miss Easy Ryder's broken branch is healed, I think. As far as I can see, she didn't even notice! I still haven't completely washed away the Worm Casting poultice that I've tried to keep slightly moist. So that's why I say, "...I think." Still haven't checked the wound.

The Cream Caramel is the loveliest one, growing in her trusted sleek, petite fashion. And the short squat SAD looks good. Although, I should stop constantly worrying about the threat of mold when she gets fat and sticky due to her very compact structure. You'll see what I mean if I can steal some time to post some pics in the next few days.

Have a great weekend AFN! :banghead: Much Love! :hug:

Noods waira can't see them cause it's a private album and he's not on your friends list :thumbs:
 
He is now. Thanks snipe! :Sharing One:

Hi guys. :Sharing One: Update time. :thumbs:

My plants are all 38 days old today. Flowering along very nicely, some getting sparkly, others not so fast. Some nice and healthy, others, not so very. I'll explain.

This is an aerial view of my Cream Caramel with just some cfl lighting. She is very horny and wanting to reproduce with a passion. Her flowers are sticky and smell like sweet berries with a spicy cinnamon or clove smell... and it's a thick smell, sluggish like syrup through the nostrils. I love this weed.

noods-albums-fall-14-picture394250-cc-38-days.jpg



This is the whole bunch of them. Got the GN off to take some pics just before the lights go off. They're all thirsty in these pics. I've been trying to imitate nature a little bit, keeping the soil constantly moist for a few days, then letting it dry a day, start from the beginning again with constantly moist soil, then dry... repeat... There experiencing a dry period now.

On the left is the Cream Caramel, then the Sweet Afgani Delicious behind her and just to the right. Then the tall Fast Amnesia and behind her to the right is the Easy Ryder. Downward leaf canoeing and clawing on the FA can be seen here. She's a wide one. And causing me a bit of heart ache. She's growing like mad and is unhappy and I don't know what to do with her.

First the not-so-bad stuff...
Here's the CC up front with some of that clawing and canoeing going on as well. This is new for her and I didn't see it the last time I looked in before taking these pics. So if I didn't oversee it, and I don't think I did, this has come about in the last five hours. In the background is the SAD with lots of yellow tips. I know why that is. I gave her too much seabird guano. I did that on purpose, though, trying to push her into growing up some more. Didn't work. It just hurt her and all of her tips are yellow and I'm sorry.

This is a Cream Caramel flower getting sticky. That white thing is not a bug- believe me, I ran over and checked as soon as I saw that pic.

...and so is this...


noods-albums-fall-14-picture394252-a.jpg



...and this is the top of the Cream Caramel...


noods-albums-fall-14-picture394256-cc-top-day-38.jpg



...and so is this...


noods-albums-fall-14-picture394257-cc-top-day-38b.jpg




oh, this one is also the top of the CC...


noods-albums-fall-14-picture394258-cc-top-day-38c.jpg




This is the top of the Easy Ryder, droopy wanting wetness...
and getting sticky.
I wanted to show you the healed branch. But I forgot and while I was putting the pics on the computer the lights went out and that will have to wait. *sigh*
noods-albums-fall-14-picture394259-er-top-day-38.jpg



Here's the problem child. Notice the canoeing all over her.


noods-albums-fall-14-picture394261-fa-38-days.jpg



I've explaind the feeding frequency. What they typically get during a cycle is 400-500ml tea consisting of a combination of worm poop, kelp, alfalfa, molasses, epsom salt, fish, chicken poop or seabird poop, OR Biobizz Grow with or without fish OR Nirvana with or without fish OR just pH'd water. I've been upping the molasses since she's started flowering.

I'm thinking nitrogen overload because she also has some burned tips. But then I think that that can't be right because she's growing like crazy. Well she's stopped now, I think. But she was. He last feeding before this dry period was 3ml / L Biobizz grow with 2ml / L Nirvanna, at 6.5. Before you ask or hope to read what my soil pH is, I have no idea. The only runoff I get is what runs out of the holes on the side when feeding and since I feed reaaaaal slow, it's not much at all and it gets sucked up with a syringe and goes right back up top.

Here on one of her branches you can see why I say I don't think she has a nitrogen overload. It looks like she's neeeding more nitrogen. Or iron???

:dunno::dunno::dunno:


noods-albums-fall-14-picture394262-fa-38-daysb.jpg




But this is happier looking...
CC on the left and FA on the right.

noods-albums-fall-14-picture394253-cc-fa-38-days.jpg



and the other way around...


noods-albums-fall-14-picture394263-fa-cc-38-days.jpg



I was planning on giving them all just plain water and molasses in the next few hours. Anyone think I should do something different? I know, I don't really put out the right info for a good diagnosis. Sorry. Temps go up to 28°.*c/ 82.*f on a warm day and down to 21°c / 70°f when it's a cold day and lights are out. Humidity is about 42 on average. The GN is roughly 44cm - 48cm above the tops.
I don't have a soil pH checker cuz I never needed one. A question; could I take a teaspoon of the soil from one or the other pots, add it to about 50 ml / ~1.5 oz of water that's been pH'd to 6.5, stir it for a while and get a reading that would let me calculate my soil pH?

Sorry if that's a dumb question. But I thought I'd ask before I go futzin more shit up.

Thank you for having a look.

Much Love to you, AFN!

Looking good my brother. I have done the soil slurry test that you referred to and it works OK. When I first got my soil meter I ran some side by side tests and the slurry was usually within around .2. Soil pH is always variable anyway since it is not constant throughout the put, but I think mixing up a batch would at least let you know if things were drastically off.
