New Grower 1st Grow KVS and Pineapple Express

hey man just read your journal, GREAT stuff my man. You are doin way better than I did with my pineapple ex's. Next time try to germinate the seeds into the final pot and skip the jiffy-coco pot that it looked like you started them in. Ive read a lot about germinating auto's and the "experts" say that if the tap root does not have any interference and the deeper it can get in that first three weeks of life will help out tremendously with the final yeild. Ive used the little coco cups first and when I omitted them I found that my yeild did increase by 5 dry grms. Better than a kick in the ass, But It looks like for your first time you gotta be a natural green thumber, I for see a lot of dank in your future so keep it up and you will never be out of your own stash. Much Respect.
 
Thanks a lot for the compliments! I really get into my hobbys and I've been having a blast growing:) I agree about the peat pots but my trick is to use two with the inner one I cut the bottom out and litter the thing with holes so it breaks apart real easy. Next go I'm gonna try the pocket of seed starting soil in the middle of my final pot since I used the peat pots up. Less work and less chance of screw up sounds good to me lol
 
Enter the Jungle :)

Its day 58 for the pineapple express! This plant has been a joy to grow and I'm happy to say I will be harvesting the top cola in two days and the rest I want to let develop a little more for 7 to 10 more days.

The KVS is a couple weeks behind I will probly feed her one more time maybe two lol then start her flush. They are both nice and sugar coated and smell nice sweet and danky Smelling my fingers as I'm typing mmmm feels weird smelling my fingers so much lol.

I got these two other girls same strains going at day 28 now in megshift pots that held about 1.5 gallons thinking they will be slightly smaller than the ones in 3 gallon containers, but I was wrong lol I forgot to measure them before I decided to last minute LST them. My theory is they got stretched out more because of being on straight hps instead of mh for the first few weeks.

Throwing in another cola shot

I know the cola could gain a lil mass if I wait a week :face:but I've been paying way too much for junk unreliable bud but she's mostly cloudy with a chance of a amber trich or two when scanning the bud :) so day 60 equals CHOP CHOP little cola top :)

A small bud was plucked and quick dried yesterday as a potency test. I got a pretty good uppy high especially for how small the bud I plucked was.
 
Thanks for the rep guys. I'm having so much fun growing with u all. I've been taking antidepressants and antianxiety pills for about a year now. Don't know y I started feeling like I was about to die any moment being paranoid 24/7 about anything I could get paranoid about. Being 23 years old I hate the fact I have to take that shit to feel somewhat normal.
AFN and growing has really been a blessing to me its so relaxing, sometimes I'll just take a seat next to the girlies and read for hours. The feeling of pride and joy u get making something go from a lil brown seed to an amazing plant that helps me wind down from the stresses of life is exactly what I think I've been needing in my life.
 
Hey man,Im truly glad to hear that brother.Growing and just chillin next to your ladies is pure therapy man through n through.Ive taken more types of pills over the many years and low n behold they can in many cases induce the onset of suicidal thoughts.go frigin figure.Im messed up enough as it is,I dont want a bigger reason to think about odd and scary stuff.Rock on brother and be well.:thumbs: Beautiful Flowers your growing btw. :wiz:

:smokebuds:

Another week or so for the rest I'm gonna let the kvs go as long as I can but she seems to be maturing pretty quick :). I'm really interested to see how much difference there is between early late and in between harvests and which one I will prefer.
Well back to work until next time AFN.
