thanks for commenting, i'm using bio nova hydro fertilizers, ec is low, 0.6-0.8mS/cm?
time to change view, plants r getting bigger, 20-30cm. temperatures vary between 21-30Celsius night/day. bubbler/dripper.
now pics every other day.
day 2 flower! thats yesterday.
i've also got bio nova's hydro fertilizermix for vegging and the p+k bottle for flowering. i've done two bubbler's and used them with previously told fertilizers but it didn't turn out as good as my soilmixes. i assume it had nothing to do with the feeding program. maybe the roots saw some light. idunno..
anyways, hopefully bio nova does not surprise you in the bad way! happy growing mate
thank you. so far alls good with bn ferts. only a few pre-flowers are showing. these are of course from feminised seed. but i'm afraid of hermafrodites. i'm gonna add a bit more PK tonight. third flower pic up!
day 13 flower. only a very few pistils are showing so far, is it normal for flowering to start this slow? i've only seen maybe 5 pairs yet. otherwise plants are healty and stems are maybe 1.5cm in the bottom of the biggest plant that i had to tie down a bit cuz it was overshadowing a lot of the lower branches and to keep height reasonable. theyre to be some monsters hopefully
Dont worry it is perfectly normal for it to be that slow wont go into all out budding until about 2-3 weeks in to 12/12. The wait is the hardest part especially once the buds start to chunk up. Anyway Good Luck
well some swelling has taken place, i switched places of the lamps _again_ so that 400w is a bit further from tops than 250w, they've grown so close to lamps i blame myself for not putting the scrog in earlier. hairs are all white, how long does it normally take for skunk to flower fully?
no pics of roots yet, i'll take some shots when it's time to harvest.
container is 45 litres, thats perhaps 11 gallons?
i had to check the flowering time for this specific skunk variety, skunk#11 from dutch passion. On their site said 65-75 days and now those pics were day 50, so i'll give them 2-3 weeks. i changed lights, had to take the 400w out cuz it was heating up too much, now i have 250w + 70w hps and 138watts cfl in there. total of 458 watts.
