Well I had to cut them down sort of unexpectedly to make room for my next run. So I will just deal with whatever I get because I didnt think it was going to be great after what happened.
Ok I really didnt like the yield I got off my last crop. I think I had around 2oz off of 3 plants 18in tall. That is far below my avg yield per plant(1.25oz)
I now have 6 plants that are clones taken from the plants I just harvested before going into flower. They have done well so far and are looking promising. I have been feeding them with a mix of Organic Teas and the Metanatuals line. They went into flower about 1 1/2 ago and are lookin good. I gave a them a few foiliar feeds of B.C Seaweed.
I'm going to try and update this grow a little more often so anyone who is interested check back.
Ok not to much going on lately... I put a 1gal yeast Co2 mix in the box like 2wks ago. I have been spraying them every other day with B.C Seaweed and Teracycle, alternating between the two. I also soil fed them a Metanatural mix with some added Fulvic acids.
After reading about Temp DIF and how it can make tighter buds I have been running a little heater to keep my night temps within 5*F of my day temps(75F)
I not only sampled the smoke.......I SMOKED IT ALL ALREADY
Dam sht was so nice to smoke after only 1 wk in the jars, my and my friends tore it up. So nice............
I just gave them a high dose of ferts like 2 days ago when I took these picks. It was a mix of 3tsp Meta. Ca, 2tsp Meta. Bloom, 3tsp EJ Microblast, and about 2 tsp Molasses. Mix was 1050-1150ppm. Didnt check the PH. Brewed for 24hr.
Yesterday I noticed some of the leaves towards the top of the plants are starting to curl under a bit. Checked PH and it looks to have moved up a bit to like 7-7.1. I will lower the PH on my next watering.
I just gave them a second dose of what I stated above, just a little stronger 1450-1500ppm. I hope they like it. That will be my last dose like this. I will be switching over to my high P Guano Teas. They are starting to really smell now, not just when touched. I will be posting up some pics soon, things are just startin to happen. Last night I seen a few orange hairs here and there.
I dont see anymore leaves curling under. I gave them a watering w/PH6.4 the other day and when I checked yesterday, PH looked to have gone down a little.
Well I had some security issues lately and havent felt safe posting.
From these last 6 plants I got just above par for myself. They came down a little early but has turned into a very nice smoke now that its almost 1 month cure. This cross seems to have 2 bud phenos; 1 with high calyx:leaf ratio that is long, dense, sweet smelling, and covered in trichs; the other has more leaf and is short, fat, muskier smell, and not so crystaly.
