They're on day 40. Doesn't smell that strong yet but I think it's too early still. Smells of fresh pine mostly, no hints of sour at all atm.

Until day 35 it didn't look like much on my plants either, seems like they begin their swelling somewhere around there
here is a pic from yesterday.. so day 33/34- i am seeing little fattining up ... and interesting where i am growing them in my house , previous grows i can smell em outside at the end of my block.. 100ft away... this time there is no odor... none... fuk don't even need the filter... very strange...

Looks like your plants are developing good for 33 days bro, at least to me they do. You're saying your previous grows of Headbanger reeked at 33 days? I have never grown HB before so I have nothing to compare it to.
yeah - my previous headbanger grow was a reeker... BUT... i lost that plant over last summer, so this is a new lady... i am hoping she is as good...

Sour notes are starting to develop

They are a bit scorched. I knew they were gonna eat lightly, but was not prepared they eat this lightly. The keeper will be studied closer on the second run.
Buds look huge and dense on every plant. Love the structure on em. Great stack. I wish I had bigger space so I could grow larger plants. These would be insane in a bigger pot.
Seeded clones went into trash before seeds matured as they were taking up space. Figured I probably won't pop em anyway so. Saved seeds from two that had the gassiest resin.

Such beautiful cultivar 🥹
74 days of 12/12 and 2 weeks of nothing but water. Very noticeable sour smells are coming through.

Thanks amigo!Looks like tou have a nice harvest coming up..enjoy
How high was the ec which led to the nute burn?
Highest I went was 2.2 around week 5. End of that week I noticed slight necrosis in veins of the top fanleaves. At 2.0 the week before they were already clawing slightly on the tips. So next time I'll probably keep it around 1.5 and only go 1.8 as highest. I used organic inputs aswell that I watered in by hand once a week by eyeballing so I might have eyeballed it wrong hehe.
Nice crop here, I'm impressed by the canopy who looks quite regular despite all the different females. Going to 1,8 for the EC sounds a bit too high still, youn should stay around 1,5 or better dosing your organic feeding because there are some traces of over feedings, nothing too bad it will be great smoke as you gave them enough time with only water so they should be smooth smoke. You'll make a good yield with all the females in this tent

We'll see, but I dont think that nute burn will affect the smoke as it's almost entirely on the top fanleavesNice crop here, I'm impressed by the canopy who looks quite regular despite all the different females.

And if it does affect then lesson learned and I learned that they are very light eaters.Yeah these are very uniform and very similar plants. Like it's a run from clones. Structure wise they all are toothpicks with cola can sized top buds and golf sized nuggets further down. All gas just with different nuances. There is one pheno that is vastly different from the rest and smells like wet paint and gas accompanied with a very distinct smell that reminds me of sweet cherries. I had very similar type of smell before on a pheno from Sensi Seeds - Early Skunk or Shiva Skunk, can't remember exactly, but it never translated. Would be dope if this smell translated into taste of dry herb
I have grown around 30 Headbanger seeds, Karma sent me this much to replace a faulty Jack O Nesia pack I bought from the Tude, really class act from him because I had low germ rate with JON pack who was a bit old when I bought it, he was not responsible but make it more than right for me. From those 30 seeds I had close to 20 different females but not grown them all at once, I've not had a single one with the type of smells you describe as wet paint, gas and cherry but it sounds great, most of the HB females I've had were very acid(sour), lemony, gassy, overall lovely smelling, I was so happy with the females I got, I've grown mainly HB and HB cross for 5 years, until I had to move and lost my HB cross seeds during the moving.We'll see, but I dont think that nute burn will affect the smoke as it's almost entirely on the top fanleaves

I crossed my keeper HB female with a Colombia Gold male who had the strongest smell in veg I've ever smelled from a vegging plant, it was like lime almost passion fruit and it mixed perfectly with the already acidic aromas of the HB, called this cross Head Gold and it is to this day my best home made cross. The CG male was really an exceptional plant who brought some lovely smells and a more elevating high to the HB. I'm really mad I lost the last seeds I had of this genetic, it was already at the 3rd generation when I lost them, each generations I selected for the females who had the HB look with the CG added smells, it worked great for my small grow op.
Your grow is really looking great here, you'll be more than happy when you'll finally smoke some of the HB flowers, it's a very strong strain and you want to smoke some for the taste only so be careful about not over indulging, it happened to me more than once. And don't worry about the nute burns, it's minimal and with the only water period you gave them it won't be noticeable at all in the end.
Did you keep them on 12/12 all along or reduced to 11/13 at some point, with this type of genetics I like to use 11/13, it helps them to get mature in a reasonable time. You'll harvest yours around the 11 weeks mark or you want to push them longer?
