Rosebud where did you get that gold and how do I get there?????lol, lol man it's awesome looking, damnnnnnn!!!!girl, you got the touch, I bow to you my dear...

 

[Rosebud]

OH my oh my oh my
You know where I got it Fader, a dispensary in Seattle. when you and your wife take a bike trip up to Wa I will give ya a.....never mind, you can't take proper care of a clone on a harley.
Does it look like yours?

 

[Cali*Style]

Looking good Rosebud, mind if I pull up a bucket?? Still early in the year, so I have lots a time to drool over pot ****...lmao

 

[Rosebud]

I'm glad you stopped in Cali. Pot **** is a good thing. When I see them everyday, I am looking at them critically, So to isolate one cola, in a photo is awesome.

 

[lordhighlama]

wowza rosie... that is looking swwweeet!!!

 

[Rosebud]

Thanks Lama, wish you would come over and take some good shots, like yours.

 

[tcbud]

Rose, thanks for the recliner..... let me know when you want it back..lol.

I will be starting something for my summer grow toward the end of next month. I have a semi solid plan, but those dont ever end up as what actually happens around here it seems, so at this point Im dreaming. I would like to get some seeds from Cali Connection (California Seed Growers, on sale at Harborside in Oakland, I think) and do maybe six to nine of them (may have to clone a few females, depending on how many I get). Then a few different strain clones, that should fill my garden cage. I am thinking along the OG lines from Cali Connection. How it ends up is another matter. It is nice to start thinking about it anyway. I have a friend that is gonna turn me on to some clones, I am sure a purple will be in there somewhere. OR....Find that illusive NorthernLight strain......and fill my cage with it. Like I said, at this point the sky is the limit because I haven't really started anything yet.

YOUR BUDS ROCK! and are prolly rock hard too...lol.

Who knows, I need to visit family out that way anyway. Been wanting to take a long bike trip in 2011, take our time thru the Rockies, spend a week in Washington, take I-90 back, take I-70 out there. We have driven it a couple times before.

When I do get out there I will bring back some clones. Wish my state would go 100% legal for MMJ. Only a few townships and counties. Who knows maybe 2011 if all goes well.

Your Gold does look and has looked a little different. Your photos show awesome cola development and so thick so early into flowering. Your trichomes always look so frosty, I’m sure the new 600watter hps has helped. When my upcoming new cuttings/clones go into their perspective aero-hydro grow-boxes, I do plan to hang a 400watter hps light over 1 Landrace Columbian Gold grow-box and 1 Blue Widow grow-box during that flowering process. I’ll continue to grow w/my CFLs as well. But this next upcoming grow I plan to do some serious comparisons using different nutes, lights, deeper grow boxes, already got the distiller, mylar vrs white paint, molasses, super thrive.

Also I have seen these air grow pods, kinda kool. I’ll get back w/you on those air grow pods. But your gold has always looked better than mine. Other growers stated that WoS Landrace CG is not a true landrace. Some say it may have some CG in it, but a true Landrace would take 17-19 weeks to flower. WoS specs says 77 days or 11 weeks to completely flower, so??. I’ll be cutting around day 65 or 66.
Your’s looks awesome...

 

[Rosebud]

fader, How tall is yours in flowering? Mine is from the dirt 30 inches to the top of the tallest cola. I took mine at 75 days last time.
Air grow pods? cool.
Thank you for the nice compliments.
It is a real relief to be able to be legal. I would be paranoid all the time and my husband would have a fit, it wouldn't be pretty, ha.

TC, something purple is always good, what is your favorite smoke from last grow. Your grows just make me drool. So huge. Do you get a pound a plant? I wouldn't be surprised. You don't have to tell me that, that is like asking someone how much they weigh. Not my business. ha.

 

[tcbud]

No pound a plant Rose, did get some half pound plants. I don't mind you asking. I got two pounds from the four Strawberry Cough. The Strawberry Cough was some of the oddest smelling reefer I have ever smelled and it smoked similar to how it smelled. A pound between the two Lavenders, that surprised the heck out of me. The NL didn't do that good, though the buds were bigger, the bud mass was larger on the others. As for the small plants, they were measured in Ounces. The Mr. Tcbud, liked the Afgoo the best. Me, I liked the Hindu Skunk the best and the leftovers from the 2009 season. I really think the spidermite problem effected the potency of all my plants, some more than others.

 

[Rosebud]

I don't know how you could control S mites outside. Did you like the strawberry cough. I am writing down hindu skunk.

I haven't written this before but my Jack Herer smelled like poop to me and a couple other people and when you break open a nug you can smell it. It tasted good, smokes good and love the very calm high, like relaxing muscle high. but p.u.that stinks and the clones smell just like it. Not a strong smell, doesn't stink up the house just if you rub it.
I have WW in veg, i have never grown before, have you? It smells in veg..! I smoked some once but it was from a lousy dispensary and i still have it left so must not have been good.
Good to talk to you. I hope your feeling well? It is so fun planing your garden. I can't wait to see what you come up from. Do you keep seeds?

 

[Cali*Style]

Just happened to be strollin through and I saw the Spider Mite problem.
Anyways, maybe give "Diatomaceous Earth" a try. It is stunningly brilliant stuff for sure, I am dead set sold on it for outdoor use... It single handedly wiped out my grass hopper / leaf miner, tick problem last year. It did get a few of my praying mantises and lady bugs too though.

Anyways, here's a nifty linky thingy, good stuff check it out.

P.S... TC, what did you think about that lavender? :hijack over:

Smoke big and be safe!! Cali :fly:

 

[Rosebud]

Thanks Cali, but I don't believe diatomaceous earth is a treatment for spider mites. It works for lots of other things, but the mite eggs are on the leaves, not in the ground.
I am glad you stopped by and thankfully no more mites in a month now..phewy. They can be a pain.

 

[420_Osborn]

just letting you know I'm always checking in on ya!!

Where's the pictures??

 

[Rosebud]

Post number 56 was taken yesterday, you will have to see what you missed. I just thought the white would reflect the light better.
Thanks for stopping in ozo.

 

[420_Osborn]

Cant believe I missed those pics....Looking good!

The CGold got about 28-30 inches tall. The B.Widow really stretched, maybe 36-38 inches w/some colas. Todays the cut at 116 days w/66 days of flowering. Will be tasting/curing it by friday. It's very dry in the house so it won't take long to dry...

I liked the Lavender better from a friends garden, it was the same cut. His was a little farther along when he took it. Because of cold weather here I take everything by nine/ten weeks max (from when flowers show)

Hijack over.

Rose, I would reccomend the Hindu Skunk anytime. The Strawberry Cough is a good daytime high. Keeps you relaxed but not out to lunch. I liked it. It has the oddest aroma though. Like no reefer I have ever sniffed before. I have never grown WW, it takes too long to finish for me to grow. I have to go with the indica dom plants, early finish is what I need.

 

[Rosebud]

Thanks you TC for the recommendation. How amber do you go?

This is the new veg closet. You can laugh if you want.
I love this guest room now, I just go and sit on the bed and stare at this wonderful happy plants. ( I know I should probably get out more). These are the spidermite baby clones from a month ago. The tallest one is WW and the one on the right is TW, middle-gold, Left is Medicine Man.View attachment DSCF0566.JPG
