Gnat situation is getting better. Couple fliers here and there, but it seems to be improving daily. Was going to get some Gnatrol as a double whammy, but the store was out. They gave me a free bag of Vermi-T to try in the meantime. Not sure that'll help, but free tea is always nice.

It's getting stinky... Lots of sweet grape and fresh apple slice scents are coming from the GDPH's and the skunk is getting smelly too. Can't quite discern any specifics from her yet other than sweetness. The GDPH's overpower the tent too much!

Real nice calimed . you definitely do those GDPH justice. every time so sweet looking. also i am assuming those are the freebies SAMkunkman . i think you are not a true IC mag veteran till you finally run them skunk man seeds. seeing as everyone who orders here at the bay boo get there own personal stockpile after 3 or 4 orders

Thanks Seedee! You are correct, the one plant in the lower left is one of the Sam the Skunkman freebies. I've had the itch to try something with more of a sativa-structure and had a few of these lying around (popped one seed). If it turns out good and is able to re-veg, maybe I'll cross it with something. I'm thinking next round will involve some pollen chucking if I get any good Blockhead IBL males.

Just started feeding at 50%. I'm doing this in hopes to get the GDPH's to start using up some of the resources in their abundance of leaves. I'm playing around with end-of-life nutrition in general as the past couple runs, despite a 10-14 (some up to 21) day flush, a couple taste tasters said the smoke was a bit coughy. I'm always looking to improve, so we'll see if this helps. For the most part I just follow the Canna schedule, but have been considering other options that will allow me to more customize the nutrient ratios for each stage of life.

Day ~57:

GDPH's are purpling up, adding weight, and about 50% of the hairs have turned brown.

The Skunkman is getting beefy, but will definitely need a lot more time. Running notes at %50 has yellowed up most of the leaves, so I am hoping she is far enough along that this is ok.

The gnat issue has been up and down

. I think the BT from the dunks I had was wearing off, so picked up another pack. Not a major increase in population, yet. Will be getting some fresh sticky paper too.

~Day 72:

Almost 2 weeks of flush. A few specks of amber can be seen on a couple tips of GDPH, but I'm trying to hold out the scissors until I see more of fan leaves turn reddish-purple. Very tempted to snip a lil tester tho for a sneak peak...we will see.

The skunkman freebie pistols are browning up at a faster pace now and thickening up. Not much green left on any fans.
