C99 and Assorted soil grow

Killing some time today so I thought I would post a few pictures about my C99 soil grow I have on the side. While my hydro gets most of my attention, these babies do nice with two 600 watt digital hps lights and an 8" fan. 3 gallon pots, Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil, 50% perlite, Advanced Nutrients 3 part, Hygrozyme, and occasionally Big Bud. Clones were vegged almost 5 weeks, topped once around 3 weeks old, then 1 week into flower everything under the canopy was chopped. These are current pictures but I will add some pictures showing the growth from the beginning. They start in 1 gallons. They are a super pain in the ass to water, which is why I am converting this closet to hydro after harvest. Just easier. But all the buds are very uniform and filling in nicely. This C99 strain is ready to pick only 7 weeks in but if you wait till week 9 they really really fill out. Temps never get above 72 F, down to around 55-60 at night which gets them a little purple by the end. Humidity from 50-65%. No Co2.

These first pictures are most recent, which is 5 weeks into flower. We go 4 more weeks until April.
















Last picture is the oldest. I will post some pictures of the other soil room, which is an experimentation room where I try out strains to sample or stick stuff I cant use but dont want to throw away.

For those of you not in the hydro forum, this gets most of the attention.

Hey dubracer, were would one find c99? I've Bro Grim's & Spice bro`s,(BG best).

I obtained a clone and turned it into a few mothers. I have now done a few runs, but this is the largest. We just hit the end of 6 weeks so we are in the final 2 weeks. Just water from now on. I add no lime or calmag+, I use just regular tap water. Its 6.8-6.9 pH and comes out about 175-200ppm these days. Trichromes are mostly cloudy but no amber yet. The Cindy does get a ton of orange hairs all over it and the smell is not super pungent while growing, no need for a carbon filter...however it is a very fragrant and fruity dank when it is cured. Incredibly fruity, tastes wonderful. The last 2 weeks of flowering are the absolute most important with this strain as this is where they put on their full mass. You could harvest now and come out ok but if you can wait till the end it is worth it, a good 30% increase in dried weight. Pictures in a bit. I no longer have any C99 genes, its a great strain but I am continuously on the search for that strain that I want to grow for the next 2 years and I need to make room. White Widow is nice but not enough personality for me. Id rather sacrifice some yield for some good character. I am intrigued with the Super Silver Haze since I like the growth and it has a great smell and taste. Hopefully the Blueberry and Grapefruit I have been coveting for so long will be worth it. I am blabbering. Hash does that, night folks.
