JTR round 2... ding ding

[coolhand]

whats up friends.... just wanted update yall on whats kickin in the cubby hole. i had no intentions of doing any more than the last run of JTR in there, but our other spot wont be ready for a while longer and the bud around here is nothing more than mediocre, making the rediculous dankness of this JTR all the more irresistable. besides... i think i can do a little better than i did on the last run... so, here goes.
2 jtr's grown from cuttings in a professional soil-less mix consisting of peat, perilite, & vermiculite, with some plant success mycorrhizae mixed in and they're being fed the fox farm trio line. they were veged for about a month and a half or so under 4 x 42 watt cfls. ill be putting them in a day and a half of darkness before flipping on thurs, and the cfls will stay up for the first two weeks of flowering to keep the internodes tight. then ill be trying out a 150watt HPS ive had lying around for a while to see how that does. without further adue...
heres the ladies in the cubbyhole


JTR 1




JTR 2




next up... i wanted to show a little detail on how i prune my plants. i learned part of this method from a thread by the 3 little birds, and it consists of topping your plants and then continually removing the breaks that try to come out at the nodes on the branches, leaving only a cluster at the apexes of the branches. the other part of my pruning is done by topping the two middle branches so they each have two heads... something i picked up from highbreedseeds, but didnt do it just like he does since i dont have much room.
so 1st, here is the part of the branch i have already pruned


and here is the tip of the branch with the new breaks that have emerged since the last pruning


heres where ill cut


and heres the finished look


and lastly... here is a shot of my JTR bonsai in progress that these cuts came from.


thanks for checkin it out.
