Wooohooo i have my own Category, wheres the other kiwis, come out come out wherever you are!
At the moment i am at Day 16 of flower, for my one plant. To bring you up to date, and make it easier on me, heres what ive posted on another site.

I thought id give it a go again even though my living conditions aint ideal. Im flatting with a few others but so Far so good!
I converted a Chest of Drawers into my flowering chamber. I have a red devil strain(so im told) and im jogging it to the max. I have a speed controlled(for noise) bathroom exhaust fan directly behind the 430watt sonti-agro with heat sheild, and two computer fans blowing fresh air on the bulb. Temps inside get to 27-30 deg C, depending on how fast my exhaust is.
Im feeding with Earth Juice, so far ive been happy with my results.
Anyway, heres my pics :)

Ive jogged the plant in a complete circle, its 5 days in flower and the budsites are popping up.

Ive trained it so one of the branches goes under the main stalk:)

I thought growing in such a small place wouldnt pay off, but so far im happy :) :blah:

This is at Day 10 of flower

I am hoping to be getting my own place shortly and setting up a bit more proper. But it works and if i save myself some money and the hassle of buying it, then sweet :)
The plans i have in my head for doing a proper grow is something i look forward to in the near future. Will still be low riders though :)

All good on day 22 in flower, plant has stretched a fair bit towards the light and starting to fill out, theres now about 9 inches between the tops of my plant and the light, so ive now put the heat sheild into play.

lol so far! i got 11 tops in total, so its looking promising :)

looking sweet bro, those heatsheilds are great for dispersing the heat and spreading the light towards the outer area of the plant, ever used one before mate?

Kiwi
04-17-2005, 02:15 AM
never been without it mate, always have had my light at 800mm high or less. So its been a must really :)
I just noticed tonight a couple of seeds i planted for the hell of it have taken off, so im gunna attempt to grow them, for fun.
Still wouldnt be without my clones! lol

I decided today to sort out my vege cupboard, im at that stage where its required as im 40 days away from finishing this one off. I have one clone and 3 seedlings. Quick trip down the road and for 10us i got a cupboard/my new tv cabinet.
Just finished getting it up and running, now i have a full op running in my bedroom for a perpetual grow, wthout any annoyances to my sleep :D
One flatmate (who has no interest in pot) knows but shes cool, the other flatmate has no idea and has even been in my room.
Though she is a little Dizzy :)

I cant stop looking at little cupboards, drawers, cabinets without turning them into growspaces in my head. :bongdude:

And sparky, living with two chicks has its positives and its negatives, pms comes around twice as much. hahaha

I had to do some adjustments to the drawers, so i pulled my plant out and took a few pics
Day 23. The strain is called red devil, but the reddening of the pistils is not something ive come across before. Actually very red. And the newer buds are white as. I just gave it a flush.
What do you think?

Sweet, i thought i may of over-ferted them or something :D
I installed a 240v hi flo computer fan last night, dam thing woke me up at 6am this morning. Not used to geting up before 7.30! :D
So its back to the shop and exchanged for a couple of 12 volters.

Thanks tibs and mermaid:)
Well its day 27 and ive noticed no significant growth over the past few days, and the pilstils colour is fading. I was scratching my chin :bongdude:

Then i realised it may of been rootbound! :eek: Silly me making silly mistakes. So i did an emergency transplant with more soil, not trying to upset her too much. And now shes at rest in the dark till the morning. The tops are now 6 inches from the heatsheild, im cutting it fine. Im no longer able to tie it down(any more) as the branches are too hardened and ill break them, so its going to be a close race to the finish. :cool:

Sparky
04-22-2005, 07:57 PM
You transplanted in the middle of flworer? Crazy man. ;)

Kiwi
04-23-2005, 12:13 AM

I was just razzin ya Kiwi. I too transplant once during early flower and have no problems at all. My setup forces me to do it that way I'm afraid. She's lookin good and VERY familiar. ;)

Kiwi
04-23-2005, 12:50 AM
The buds had started filling out, then seemed to stop and the colour faded. Do you think i was right in thinking rootbound was the prob?

Kiwi
05-02-2005, 06:59 AM
No comments on the rootbound, never mind, all iis well on Day 37 of flower.

Well done :pimp:

Kiwi
05-03-2005, 12:36 PM
Still 30days to go! I just noticed on one branch where i attempted a supercrop pinch, after healing it has made that particular bud far larger then the one above it. Either it has worked, or it has just redirected energy from the rest of the branch. Should of took a pic but lights off now.

Here are my first ever plants from seed :)

This is looking good for just over a week old. I had to slap myself because i thought its showing sex! lol
http://www.growkind.com/gardens/Minimonsters/1676/seedling2.jpg

This one is only a few days younger then the one above, but doesnt look nearly as happy. Any thoughts?

This photo shows my trunk, and this branch im pulling away is the "tuck" i performed early on in vege. Strangely enough this branch holds the biggest Cola :) (1st photo left bud)
http://www.growkind.com/gardens/Minimonsters/1619/Picture016.jpg

And my seedling is now a plant. So tempted to switch it to see sex, what dya reckon?

awsome lookin plant man...have you been slowly trimming up from the bottom? or was that one trimming session?

Kiwi
05-11-2005, 06:51 AM
lol thats just me taking all the little shit off to smoke, bit by bit. Took the first bit off at day 35ish? hehe. Ive run out of the small stuff now and am eye-ing one of those ones up..

Hepazoid sounds like something nasty that requires a doughnut pillow to sit down on :LOL:

Lookin great indeed kiwi! great work. That seedling is very sativa, do you know what strain?

Kiwi
05-19-2005, 09:20 PM
Not sure what strain, but i hope its a sative, these indicas knock me out lol
Heres my harvesting of the remaining plant. About 1/3rd of the pistils are brown, crystals still clear but smoking it right now is very couchlocking, so i decided to make room for my other plants. Day 56 in flower it is it is. Say Goodbye! :wave:
