I cant explaine how happy i am sitting here looking at the replies, damn i dont even need to explain to all of you coz you know just how much it means.
Im gonna show some pics of BottleRocket#1 now. This plant has an abnormality in its growth, it self topped into 2 main branches and one of them is super wide......kinda like the shape of a ruler.
Here is a close up of the abnormal branch.
Here it is from both sides.
I am real excited as to how she is gonna turn out, its as if 2 branches are joined together because it seems to be producing double bud sites and leaves all the way up.
That is some nuts plants, but the growth on it is shit. All the branchs look like there going to be tops, your going to need some sticks to hold them up deep in buddin.
Hey MrGJ i checked and the pics were taken on the 02/09/06 and i flipped them all over to 12/12 on the 05/09/06......i am gonna do a full picture update early next week although i have just taken some of BR#1 which i will put up soon.
Here is BottleRocket#2, she is the shortest of the 3 but has a beautiful open structure with amazing side branching.
and finally BottleRocket#3 which is the tallest and also has great side branching
Overall i am very impressed with this strain, all 3 phenos seem very different as i would expect of a strain with such a mixed genetic background....one thing for sure is that the genetics of this plant are excellent.....the are very healthy vigerous and smelly girls and i anticipate some very special end results and potentially great keepers.
Peace
Grow's looking good, my brotha...
That mutant 'joined' branch is a trip... I've had similar growth in plants, but they turned out male... That one will be interesting to watch bud...
A lot of folks don't care for veg pics but I myself consider it to be foreplay. Those girls right there are gonna be freakin huge in the up coming months. I'm gonna be over here in the corner.
Hey there mrwags great to see you.... you have been a massive inspiration to me regarding the female seeds strains and especially Special Skunk so please feel free to pass on any info about these girls.
Here is an example of the general structure of the Special Skunk, all but one of them look almost identicle to this
This is the one plant that differs in structure, she self topped in early veg.
These plants are real vigerous and have a wonderful wide side branching structure, they have been in flower a few weeks since these pics and stretched quite a bit, i will put up new pics early this week.
The garden looks great TC! nice healthy looking plants bro, good selection too... Can you tell us a lil about your feed regime and how many times you are watering... I'm assuming teh coco is hand feed.
You've got some monsters in the making, I'm looking forward to the updates.
Thanks for the kind words Guv, great to have ya along for the ride.
Here are 2 Grapefruit
#1
#2
I've grown this strain out before and loved it (im a real c99 fan, everything it touches seems to be golden).
Hey Mampi regarding feed i mix up in a 5 liter container and add 12ml of canna a+b(24ml total), then i add 5ml of each of the b'cuzz boosters and bloom stimulator and 5ml of cannazym, also i add 10ml of rizotonic but i've just run out....when the time is right i will also feed pk13-14.
I am watering daily between 1/2 and 1 liter per plant.
Peace
Here are some pics of my favourite mutant BR#1 taken at day 18 of flowering and as you can see there has been quite a lot of stretch as i expected (without it being unmanagable) and the mutanat branch has got even stranger.
Im gonna take pics of the rest of my girls tonight so a full update will follow shortly.
Peace
Hey truecannabliss mate, that stem is looking crazy eh? never seen anything like that before. seems like the stem wants to turn into twins, lol.
anyway mate, your plants are looking very healthy, i love how they grow in coco coir, all the advantages of a hydro grow, ie speed and yield, but non of the disadvantages, ie it's biological, gives a great taste if you get the n out and can be reused many times. but best of all no fucking about with air stones or anything else. even runs a treat with just daily hand watering.
Hey Gaius good to see you bro, the coco really is a great medium to work with...... although watering large numbers of plants can some time you wont hear me complain, i cherish the time spent in the grow.
Marely, good to see you back online and posting relgular..... seems things in and out of the grow are on the up for you and i'm pleased to see it, amazing how well the grow goes when life is well and vice versa....cant wait to see you posting pics of your next lot, you'll be back at your best before you know it.
Ok so now for some updates....i will start with the Snow Whites (although i some how forgot to picture #3)
SW#1....this girl is about 7 feet tall so i've since broken her neck so she is not above the lamp hight.
SW#2
SW#4
As can be seen these girls are ridiculously tall but what the hell it should be a nice challenge and a bit of fun to see how they go.... i have taken clones of all 4 phenos for possible mothers.
