Sick buds

[druglessdouglas]

that should do the job. just make sure they dont get too hot.
thats a lot of wattage, why not invest in a sodium lamp, 250w poot or something, for next year?

We can get enough money for a sodium lamp by inviting people over for light-therapy..........

who will pay for all the sunblock? its not cheap!

do you know the energy efficient bulbs? they are very cheap to run and last for years. they cost 1-2 euro each. you shouldnt be using anything else in the house IMO

not bad for growing and very little heat

 

[Psyolopher]

Just a n00b question, because im to lazy to look around!
If i'd grow a plant.......

Would I be able to smoke it, even if its not fully mature?
Like when its tiny? XD
Because there is like no way, im taking this risk!
Our country are to strict!

 

[druglessdouglas]

you can smoke it but you wont get any hit. there will be no resin glands on it.
how strict is strict? is iceland that bad?

Well we actually dont have helicopters n shit!
But the anti weed propaganda here is amazingly scary!
Well or drugs in general!
The police uses way to much time chasing weed growers!
(why the hell am i paying tax for this shit)
And also we're a small island, with only 300 thousand people!
Which means, its hard as fuck to smuggle something in!
I've never taken that risk, and i never will!
And i just wouldnt like to have a plant for 12 weeks in my home, and when it grows big i cant hide it anywhere!
So, i will not get ANY high if the plant is not fully mature?

 

[druglessdouglas]

i doubt it very much.
as long as you tell NO ONE about your plant you will be safe, unless your police are psychic. how would they find out?

I've heard that before!
never tell anyone!
hehe well i actually live at home with my mother, because our economy here is going straight to hell!
Our banks are going to hell, the food prices are sky high!
The gas prices has raised 50% since last year...bla bla bla!
So i kinda have no choise, since i cant really get a well paid job!
If i would grow, i wouldnt sell it!
I'd keep it for myself to be honest!
I guess i cant really do it anyway in the situation im in!

But isnt the smell very strong?!
Would suck if my neighbours would smell it!
Thats my biggest concern!

So i was just wondering, it is a nice thought!
I dont see it happening anyway!

 

[druglessdouglas]

some plants smell quite strong but your neighbours wouldnt smell it. you really need to have smelled it before to know what it is. if your at your mums its maybe not ideal though.
the economy sucks here too. cant see it getting better soon

aaw man, i need to get the work on my house finished. that film made me want to cry. :weedman:

It doesn't smell like a burning joint or anything. It's a pungent odor, sometimes leaning towards the smell of cat pee.

Here are some new pictures.

Looks great. Did you cut the tops to force them to grow that way or is it it's natural shape?

Personally I think you should cut all the leaves before you hang them to dry.

 

[Caduceus Mercurius]

I used ropes to pull the branches down, and about 6 weeks ago I broke the stem of one, and now five branches have very prominent tops. The other plant was also cut to limit its length, so it has two dominant colas. Lasty week I cut off 40 cm from all the side branches so the plants would fit in the tiny room. I'm high on those branches now (I vaporize the fresh buds including the small leaves and stems, it's delicious).

 

[druglessdouglas]

CaduceusMercurius they look excellent

 

[Caduceus Mercurius]

The buds are even more sick now: there are little drops of sticky stuff all over them, glistening in the light. The small leaves are all covered with white powdery stuff. The plant doesn't seem to grow anymore. It's just getting bigger and bigger buds. Since I'm growing these plants for their fiber (I want to make lots of hemp rope), I'm highly frustrated!

 

[druglessdouglas]

another week to go :wink:
are they heavy yet?

 

[Caduceus Mercurius]

are they heavy yet?

Yes, pretty heavy. Some of the branches are really bending down due to the weight. I put one of the two plants on the balcony today, since the weather forecast is quite positive. The other plant I kept inside, surrounded by all the lights. I gave both of them some new soil.

 

[druglessdouglas]

just in time. looks like you have a touch of spider mite. was it a dry summer? they havnt suffered for it though.
shame about your rope crop

 

[Caduceus Mercurius]

Yes, I think so too. I even saw a couple of strange small cob webs a couple of days ago. They were situated on the leaves, not on the buds.
It wasn't a dry summer though.

 

[Caduceus Mercurius]

There are now four 200 watt light bulbs, four 60 watt light bulbs, and four fluorescent tubes surrounding the plants. 8)

I just received the electricity bill for 2008. Turns out that compared to 2007 I used 79% less electricity! Seems my efforts at isolating the building have been effective. Use of gas went down by 10%. I can't believe that I'm receiving back 1.227,10 euro...

WTH? She's still going??? !!!
She's looking good though, but it's strange she hasn't finished yet?
