hi all well 11 or so days have past since my last picture update and all are rolling along the road to a screen full of buds! first up is the zamnesia amnesia haze in the bigger drobe,then the powerplant and double strawberry in the tiny veg cab under a 120w qb,then the smaller drobe with 2x powerplant under 250w qb.
not a lot to say really except i been very busy the last week working on the car,new clutch fitted single handed and awaiting replacement engine mounting and this sodding rain to piss off so i can finish the job,but its left me knackered and hurting and in no mood for playing with plants by the time im done so they are a bit leafy on the lowers and need to see the hairdresser tonight!
anyhow despite the neglect there stayin alive! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emgP1ULVSKo
thanks for looking in,any comments welcome,peace all.

hi horse the car is a 1994 volvo 850 estate/wagon and has the steering wheel on the right side, on the right! only trouble is the stupid car spares companies who cannot work out that parts made for a lhd do not often fit the uk cars rhd but sell them to you anyway and then have to argue to get a refund,fed up with them and now order all my parts from germany as they are better aftermarket parts and they mostly send the right bit! the best volvo ever built and a car for life is right if looked after,built that 5 pot engine to last half a million miles but mines only got 160000 miles so a spring chicken and not an old banger really just old.
the plants and neglect dont often work so well so counting myself lucky and promised them a good old trim up tonight and rid some of the unlit lowers before they get mankey and rotten,poxy rain on and off for days and rh in the upper 80s that makes my copd worse and so working for long is out of the question so masses of tea and spliff breaks are needed. i hope all is well for you?thanks for looking in,peace

hi all just a little update with lots of pics from all 3 drobes,starting with the zamnesia amnesia haze at 44 days 12-12 of 15 week flower period i got most of the lower crap off and just feeding and checking regular the brix reading and atm we have a perfect 10! some nice shiny bits and ages yet of flowering to go,the 2 different phenos are obvious in pics one sat dom and one indica looking leaves and buds but they seem to smell much alike.
next up are the powerplant and double strawberry in the tiny veg cab under the bloody brill little 120w qb about 4 weeks or so i guess of 12-12.
then the next lot is of the 2 x powerplant in the smaller drobe under 250w qb about 5 weeks 12-12 maybe.
ive been very much hands off this run due to tinas ill health and fitting a new clutch on my old volvo 850 all on my own,took me 3 days with lots of spliff breaks and a lot of oil for the pain,my neck is hurting something horrid but car is done and i am pleased i can still carry out such work just takes longer,saved about £800 though and i know i used the best make and took full care of the fitting what cost peace of mind?
anyhow enough babble heres a bunch of pics enjoy and thanks for looking,peace
ok no fucking idea what this poxy computer has done with my sodding pics,there gone and cba to do more after doing the nute tanks,sorry.
tried again,had so much trouble last night!

hi all well there all still alive and growing despite very little tending as we still have the daughter and kids here and there very nosey and ask awkward questions so pics had to be quick and stealthy!
we have pics taken today from all 3 drobes there in reverse order than normal just to confuse me!
first up is the smaller drobe with 2x growers choice powerplant at approx 32 days 12-12.
then the tiny veg cab with a powerplant and a double strawberry at approx 32 days 12-12.
to finish is the bigger drobe with what was meant to be 2x zamnesia amnesia haze but has turned out to be some random indica in the damn pack and 1 amnesia haze ,this is now so obvious as the indica looking thing is clearly winding down growthwise and has lots of faded pistils,grrrr!!! this means ending up with an empty space for a frigging month,that will grind my nerves they been 12-12 for 53 days today out of 15 week flower period and are getting very fat and sticky!
cheers for looking in and happy growing to all!

hi all and all i hope you are well,i have good and bad days taking pics due to having a tremor which makes me shake badly and ruins pics.a nice big pipe of the double strawberry sorts that out for a while and sometimes i get it just right,take your time and use the best setting on the camera for your particular lighting,wrong setting and even the very best camera will take poor pics on the wrong settings,took me an age to work out the menu on this panasonic lumix of my brothers.
anyhow heres a bunch of pics taken tonight from all 3 drobes first shows the bigger drobe and harvest from the not haze and some of the actual haze.
then next is the tiny veg cab with powerplant and double strawberry under the 120w qb.
then theres the smaller drobe with 2x powerplant under 250w qb at approx 50 days 12-12 and growing fast.
i hope you enjoy the pics,peace all and thanks for visiting.
cheers till next time!

hi all some pics for you taken today from all 3 drobes starting with the lone amnesia haze at day 68 of 12-12 and all scruffy and damaged and lazy (a bit like me!) but very fat and shiny (unlike me!)
the foliage only looks that awful due to me buggering up the damn phing and must have doubled up on ph down,took me 3 days of use to notice a problem and by then damage was done,flushed and reset quick but obviously not quick enough,i blame them damn kids…
anyhow there still alive and growing which is lucky,the next lot are from the tiny veg cab of the seedstockers powerplant and the diesel jones double strawberry under the tiny 120w qb and doing ok.
not quite as damaged by my error.
then theres the 2 powerplant in the smaller drobe under 250w qb and again damaged by my error and looking a bit pale due to this,i took a dozen or so dead leaves off them tonight dropping foliage like crazy low down,messy!
to be honest other than shit caused by me there doing great!
goes without saying i have to pay more attention even when the kids are around not to rush mixing the feeds pics enjoy,
next up is the tiny veg cab,
next up is the smaller drobe with the 2 powerplants,cheers all. 
cheers for looking in,peace.

Yep I’ve noticed extreme heat makes strange airy fingers on top. That kind of thing stopped when I installed the cooling tubes to draw away the heat!

hi joe yes temps hit 38c last night and has done so several nights in a row even with the led dimmed down,set to break in weather monday and back to our normalish temps!
i too suffer in the heat due to copd and asthma so shall be very pleased to see the back of the heat,i shall be sowing seeds this week and have a nice mix infact so many choices im bewildered and had to make my tina pick them.
i am a great lover of autumn and winter and best of all it means i can get the hps back in service as i do far better then,the leds are good for the summer but no good for uk winters,i used to use cooltubes in my big old sheds but there a right pain in drobes and too long! cheers for looking in,stay well.

right well i lost count of flowertimes some time back and due to the combo of my ph accident (3.5 ph for a week) and the excessive heat this grow looks like a pile of shiny shite!
some have barely any fans left and had to regrow foliage hence some rather leafy bud and lots of extra trimming for me come choptime 
but it is what it is.
jarred the harvest from the one out of 3 actual amnesia haze whatever other 2 are is def some kind of indica dom its not shit but not fecking haze either,zamnesia on the naughty step.
theres pics from the tiny veg cab and the smaller drobe taken tonight in a hurry as camera battery was low,i did clean the resin off of the lens with my underpants(clean on thanks) so the big smudgy bit is gone!
thanks for looking in,peace all

hi all well the deed is done and both powerplants are chopped sort of trimmed and hanging to dry,also have a nice bunch of what was not so well lit fluff and sticky popcorn for the oil run drying in the dehydrator overnight then into freezer.
first pics is buds from plant 1 of the powerplant under 250w qb ala @Forest
had to dim to 70% during the hot bit add to this my fuck up of a week of ph 3.5 i reckon they done very well and are still good tough genetics and solid sticky very smelly buds.
plant 1 did slightly better than no2 with several stonkers,no mould or br despite a few thousand dead leaves.
then theres a couple pics of the new life being autos 2 in each airpot again as i did well last time being as there large airpots i can either pick the best of each and or grow both if they good.
then theres pics of buds from powerplant no2 drying in the smaller drobe as ran out of line room in the bigger drobe.
i tried a few close ups of the trich formation on the powerplant but im far to shaky and only one came out decentish,enjoy pics and thanks all for the comments and looking in again,peace

hi all took a few more pics from my drobes tonight some right boring autos and some of the last remaining flowering girls being a powerplant and double strawberry under the 120w qb now at 80 odd days 12-12 and still growing well new pistils abound and smell is very strong so pics done quick and drobe door shut asap!
some pics of the harvest from plants 1 and 2 of powerplant all in the smaller drobe drying slowly,5 days so far but in no hurry other than wanting to put new plants in the space
also not sure anyone will remember i started 2 reg afghani landrace and binned one and evicted the other to the sunroom along with what was the runt amnesia haze well there both alive and budding up despite smallish pots and rare feeding and little light due to having to keep them fairly hidden,and to finish my tinas fave cactus marge reached 1mtr tall this week it was 6 inches tall in 2019 when she got it from wilkos!coco powered see

Is there some kind of damage on that one powerplant cola?
1 Like
hi joe they all got some damage and lost a lot of foliage as whilst i had the grandsons staying i had to mix the nutes in bigger batches than normal so as to save awkward questions (good theory bad practice) and some how must have managed to add ph down twice so ph was 3.5,that screwed them esp as it was a week before i noticed the problem,normally i mix the nutes daily and ph is different daily so this sort of thing would not happen,some seem to shrug it off like the double strawberry but it totally denuded the amnesia haze which stopped dead like overnight! i am harvesting the last powerplant tonight and the ds will get the light to itself for the end,i shall try and not repeat this mistake. 
cheers

tonight i took some pics from the drobes the last still growing is the diesel jones double strawberry under the 120w at 90 days 12-12 and still growing and not a brown pistil in sight yet bud is solid but leafy due to my earlier ph fuck up and it had to regrow majority of leaves,whoops.
just imagine how well it would have done without it! wont complain though it did not die
seriously tough genetics.pics cheers all.
peace all.
