hey people! :wave:
...yea those spider mites suck big time...thats why I just said the hell with it at the first sign of em...no signs of any of them on any of my other plants.

The Apollo 11's and cali-o got transplanted I just threw them right into flower for now to see who's a girl...then I'll reveg at the first sign of sex..and take clones from there.

Yeah BHB- That SDxAK is a keeper in my book...I think I'll let it go for awhile longer and then chop it a bit early to hopefully maintain some vigor, and go for the reveg and really crossing my fingers that it makes it. I think the smell is even more cherry than my cherry-AK's. It definitly is going to have denser buds, it looks like it will yeild well.

Anyone have an opinion? It's about 30 days into flowering...should I try the reveg after harvest, or just re-veg the whole thing right now?

Big update w/pics

Big update w/pics

About the mites-
Good advise Core. I ordered some neem oil, but I think Its too late into flowering for my girls to be sprayed with neem - still no signs of the little bastards so I think I'm in the clear for now. I'll get the Apollo's and the Cali-O's sprayed though as a precaution.
I think you were (half) mis-understanding me. I am planning on flowering my Cherry pheno SDxAK probably 50 days or so instead of letting it go the full 65 or so it needs to fully ripen, and then re-veging it. Theory being -I am cutting it a bit early to hopefully maintain some vitality in the plant for a good re-veg as I have had trouble getting a reveg after a plant has given it's all, and fully ripened. You did understand about the bubblicous and the Apollo's, but They are growing so fast now that I think I'll just let them do their thing.

Now for pics!

Heres my veg area I just sprouted 2 bubblicous, and 2 more SDxAK's you can see my BBH mom in there too.

Heres a shot of the flowering garden:

You cant really see the cali-o in this pic because it's hiding, but if you could see it you'd see it has 4 tops.

And now a little feature on my Cherry Pheno SDxAK that started out as a runt and grew into this:

little closer: :headbange

This is the one I really want to re-veg and save for a permanent mom. Damn this thing smells sooo sweet, I just want to eat her up.

And now here is my furthest along plant (SDxAK)xAK I think its around 50 days now: It has probably the least smell out of any plant that I have ever grown, but you can still smell it, kinda musty-hash like, with a touch of the diesel petrol.

Heres one of it's nugs that I "tipped" early in flowering. It really does look fatter than the other buds:

Now for the sugarshot:

starting to see a bit of milkyness shouldn't be long for her. probably 1 more watering with pure h2o....then CHOP!
Hope you enjoyed the update
:rasta:

-bump- for the day crowd.
Also how does everyone go about applying the neem oil?
I have seen people mixing it with water and soap, and spraying it on. whats the general concensus here?

and for the neem oil..i'm not verry shure on the dosis..coz i use mineral oil..its not the same as neem...i use 50 to a 100ml per 10 L water and a few drops of detergend..
but all i know not all neems are not the same...look witch brand it is and google the answer...

Bearfoot- You did find your way in here.....:wave:
Thanks a lot, but really for some reason this furthest along (sdxak)xak along with her less further along runt of a sister are fairly low smell, just a hint of fuely hashy-sweetness if you rub it, but the sdxak is a whole diffrent story, with all of my fans off and no filtration the whole place would wreak just because of this one girl. if you rub it you get an INTENSE cherry liquor smell...man I am soo keeping this one if I possably can..
Core thanks man mineral oil eh? hows that work for ya?
and not all neem brands are the same strength? hmm, I'll make sure of what I got ,and how to use it. Especially since it will just be precautionary in the first place, because I still haven't even seen a trace of em since I culled that last one..-EDIT- brand is called DYNA-GRO, and on their website it says 1 tsp neem oil and 1/2 tsp liquid dishsoap per quart of warm water-/Edit-
J-Roc-glad you're enjoying it man, yeah the stanley is hardcore and works wonders! :rocker:

I guess it was all well that you didn't get to see the cali-o because I checked it today and found balls, and that was the end of that..I think I'll pop more california orange bud seeds in my next seed run, it really looked like it had potential.

I'll probably do a round of cloning soon too.

Hey bud. Man, that cherry Ak looks freakin' sweet. I'm about to use some neem oil, too. Stupid caterpillars got to one of my Cindy's. I'm using it as a foliar spray. I forget the ratio, but it's on the bottle. If the neem doesn't work, I'll have to upgrade to BT.

Hell yeah :headbange Thanks bhb!
Heya twisted! :wave:
Well, I sprayed everything in veg with neem including the Apollo's. I expected it to smell like pine oil for some reason...man there is just no other smell that I know of to compare it to...bug farts maybe? luckly I did my mixing and spraying outside so I didn't make too much of a mess. and after everything dried it didn't really stink at all. I hope it works.. :joint:

ok now for some pics:
Heres a budshot from the furthest along (sd x ak) x ak (man I gotta come up with a better name)It's almost done, 56 days:



And now for more pics of my cherry pheno SD X AK: :jump:









I'll get more pics of the apollo's next time, they have really grown! :smoke:

Hey thanks a lot hazy :wave:
Those pics were all taken with a Kodak DX4530 it's 5mp and I also use closeup lenses as well (a +7, and a +10 stacked on top of each other).
It's served me well so far.
