Thanx guys for watching the grow. I hope I can make it worth while for you guys

I flush when the buds are formed and the pods are starting to swell.
Then I usually have 7-10 days left, and that is when I flush.

Flushing when not necessary is just depriving the roots from oxygen.

Thank you fonzee. I held out i guess my mind was thinking I was a week further than i was. Stupid stoner! :biglaugh:

Thank you jonny nugs

Excellent first grow!

You've obviously been doing a lot of reading.

Thank you Pompey_Monkey. Yes i tried to read up a lot before I started with such a small cab. This site has been a huge help on that part. Lots of great ideas and good mentors on ICMag.com

My only caution to other new growers is read a lot and read a wide spectrum of grows. I have found the art of horticulture to be a very tricky thing to learn. So many people have sooo many different "Tried and True" methods of growing. The amount of different grow mediums and nutrient lines can be very over whelming. K.I.S.S always is you safest bet. I would recommend a simple basic soil grow, with an easy three part system for anybody's first couple grows. Always start with less plants than your total goal will be and work your way up. But still no mater how much you read it means nothing until you actually get your feet wet.

Nice grow Benyboi, Tight I known I've read almost every tread here, nonstop for almost 4 months. Alot of good info.Keep us updated would love to see how you make out.
They both look great, excited to see both of them put on some weight and finish up!

Well guys on to the show:dance013:

This is a few days into week 6. My weeks end on thurs day.

A couple notes on status of this week are : buds on the G13 are starting to swell. The kush still looks dinky. The tops of a couple colas are getting bleached. I should have been expecting this. I mentioned before that my light was way to close. I was hoping to squeak by but I must be just on that line. I tried pushing them down a bit to help prevent any further damage.

About bleaching. I'm told that this has no effect on the smoke. just gives an odd appearance on bag appeal????

well I guess on to the show:wave:

Where do you see a bleach?

I haven't believed a LED could cause a light bleach :S

oh i gotcha. Well no my leaves arnt turning white. So i guess that's not what it is. I was talking about just the tops being bite white. Its pretty noticeable i just didn't know what caused it. And its only on a few. IDK :watchplant: and wait I guess

looks like just some thick hairy base pistils, i had pistils like that on a aurora indica pheno im running and they ambered up after awhile, in fact those nugs are denser and stickier!!

Yea man i would say its needs another 3 weeks atleast

OK OK OK :jump: you guys all want to see them go longer. And after taking another look i see lots of room to fill up. Going to keep her on the scheduled feeding plan for at least another week. I did pick up some molasses so ill be adding that in as well.

Thanks for all the support guys ill be back next week for an update:wave:

ok guys... sorry for the delay

Went out last weekend woke up checked on the plants. everything look peachy. Left for the day came home late and woke up the next morning to a dead plant. So weird. leaves shriveled, crunchy, falling off. I tried a quick flush with plain water. She just couldn't keep going :friends:. chopped her and dried. sorry no pics as it happened but you can see her bud.

The G13 had no problems looks likes its about full term starting to flush on next watering. I'm noticing she doesn't drink up as much water anymore; The soil never gets dry. She dose keep getting burnt tips on the leaves like its not getting enough water?

Sorry for the poor quality camera is crapin out time to buy a new one but here ya go! :jump:

buds looks nice!

the burnt tips means overfertilizing \ too much salts in the medium. Let the soil get DRY and flush it down. Then let it DRY again before watering again.

Well guys I smoked the kush and...

It smells real grassy. Im guessing from it being real immature and its light and fluffy. I dont have a scale but half O would be a good guess on weight. The smoke isnt bad. super smooth. Smokes best rolled in a joint. really heady high for what its worth. its been curing in the mason jar for a few days and its starting to give a Jasmin scent.

It is what it is :smokeit: I'm happy

cant wait for the G13 to finish up im going to let it dry out before the flush so it will be another day or too. Almost want to flush it then resume for another week or two. Wash off all those salts and get her nice and pretty before the chop.

now that I have some smoke to get me by for a little im not so anxious

well guys thanx for the tips :coffee:
