My rare Late Finishing Sativa pheno is very special BOG says, and the corresponding smoke which I just tasted today was quality BANG! After a nice cure it will kick ass. I wish I could send you three clones of this LifeSaver but I already sent 20 out to members here and she is just about done in a couple weeks but I did keep one clone and I can do this grow with you guys :D and we could share and compare in the end :D

After my early taste test It was a creeper hammer stone. That typa put you on your ass if your standing, or if you sitting you roll over to the floor! lol. I am currently under the weather ( back pain, allergies{seasonal}, and a slight fever and this smoke really helped me soothe some of these symtoms and I am actually in a really happy mood right now! YAY!

LifeSaver if possible should get as much light as possible as soon as the first set of true leaves show and the stem is nice and hearty. Perhaps you would like to expiriment and put your young Lifesaver with the flowering plants for more light then just move em back to veg when the light cycle is done. I am currently doing this with Strawberry Cough and she is vegging like mad!

LifeSaver hates to be overwater early on but as her root mass grows and he/she shows phenotype then you can adjust accordingly. My Sativa Pheno lovesssss to be drenched daily this late in flower. I love her and the bud formation is quite lovely. Almost dont wann merc her... but I will re-veg. My Ls was vegged for about 2 months almost 3. If you have an emergency or need help PM me :wave:

Can i put it under a 1000

Can i put it under a 1000

Friendlyfriend, After the first set of true leaves show should i add the 175 hps?I have some white rhino flowering now,would it be alright to put the LS under the 1000 and then back to the other lights after the light cycle?This wouldnt be a problem taking them from such intense light and then back to only 311 wtts?

Lovely Indica Pheno Chuck :D She will getcha very very high if you keep giving her enough enough love and time but this looks like a quick finisher you got yourself. How old is she?

And Kenny absolutely! you can start her on the 175 HPS right away buddy :D And basically if you can give her more light and continuous optimum conditions you are certainly in for a treat. From all my studies on this strain through various growers peticularly on OG I have found that the higher wattage grows substantially increase yeild and resin production in this powerhouse. I have seen purple phenos, heard of grape phenos, and I was lucky enough to snag a good ol' sweet candy pheno. Its funny cus when she started flowering she smelled like warm chestnuts.. freaky nutty scent... and since then its a joy to be in her pungent presence! alliteration... here's another one....

Luscious LifeSaver.... Love her or Leave her :D

toperomekoms - good news about the seeds mate. I was at the new place today and the cellar was lovely and cool (and it was boiling outside) So I think we can get them in there next week, while you get your place sorted, heres to a good grow.

Weve never smoked any of Bogs strains so our choice was based more or less on the positive report from here and OG, lets hope Bogs genetics are as good as his marketing ;)

hey friendlyfriend, top advice, your help will be much appreciated. i'll keep posting piccies for you to browse over as soon as theres anything worth taking. i just had a quick question for you on ferts, i know this maybe basic shit, but hey. Were gonna use coco fibres, perlite and possibily worm castings/bonemeal mix, feeding it on canna coco ferts with a PK booster (later in flowering). What i wanted to know is if theres anything it really favors, weve a 400 watt hps setup and as much space as you can imagine.

With LS just like any other strain your gonna want to start your nutes @ 1/4 strength and gradually raise it the nutes over time slightly. If you can the best way to keep everything running smoothly is check the ph of the water before your pour and the run off that way you can keep everything within acceptable parameters. With LifeSaver you wont have to give her heavy nutes till she roots well. I personally use the Pure Blend Pro Veg and flower.

And the 400w Should be close enough to have a strong intensity on the kids but not as close to burn them.

Hope this helps.

heh its a funny thing you mentioned that... I vegged her for about 2 months and I was hoping for a taller plant.. perhaps a 4-5 footer but due to the fact that I used a pot which is wider than taller and I also bent her at almost a 100 degree angle and almost broke the meristem multiple times in order to develope huge knuckles my plant is a stocky 3 footer. I learned that techinique from CrazyComposer. If you supply enough wind light and water you can start squeezing and training your plant about 2-3 weeks into veg (after a 2 week germination period). have no fear when you pinch the stem and rub it between your thumb and index finger till you feel you broke all the matter within the stem but the outside fibers are still intact holding the plant together. When growing in soil/soiless mediums many growers suggest at least a two month veg. period so that your plant will be more mature. A "more" mature plant will produce more resin and THC exponentially compared to a younger counterpart.

I have grown in the past but growing LifeSaver to me has helped me develope advanced agricultural techniques as well as more patience. Before her I grew quick finishing indicas and even bagseed which i minimally vegged and rarely, if ever, supplied constant and consistent enviromental and nutritional conditions. Again patience is essential. One big problem I encountered before LS was droopy wilting plants, occasionally a plant would die overnight for unknown reasons and all sorts of maladies. So I went back to basics and studied quite a few books and the entire OG Faq which thought me more patience.

Overwater/Underwatering is the leading cause of serious problems early on. Then the next thing you must carefully meter is the nutrient mix/uptake in your watering regime. Then Perhaps you can focus on just keeping them perky.

Do not get discouraged if you are starting for the 1st time from seed because your first harvest will be your longest wait but if you keep starting seeds or work on clones every two weeks your pallete will be soo full after 4 months youll be intrenched in your garden happier than you were b4 :D
