White Nightmare BX by Sin City Seeds

[AngrySquirrel]

Welcome! This is my first grow journal here, and I look forward to exchanging knowledge with everyone! I’m just a single plant hobby grower, but you can check out some of my past grows in my post history. I’ve found doing only one plant allows you to focus all your attention on it to get great results. So sit back and come along for the ride…

We will be growing White Nightmare fem by Sin City Seeds. It leans sativa and is backcrossed so we should be getting a nice pheno out of it.

I subscribe to the Cocoforcannabis school of thought, it’s written by Dr. Coco, a university professor in horticulture who grows by the science. So far I have had great success with it.

High frequency fertigation (feeding 6x per day)
Auto water system
Royal Gold Coco, added 30% perlite
3 gallon air pots

Advanced Nutrients Sensi Coco
Sensi CalMag Xtra
Rhino Skin (Si)
Sensizym
Big Bud Coco/Overdrive (PK booster)
Bud Factor X (chitosan)

I know people dunk on AN but I don’t care, I like trying new things. I’m going into it completely objectively. I have used GH and Jacks 321 in the past. They all have their pros and cons.

I had a little deficiency in veg that I made a thread on, but I’m 99% sure it was due to bad nutes ordered off Amazon. I flipped almost 2 weeks ago and the switch to fresh bottles of the bloom formula stopped the deficiency and now I am honestly getting impressive performance out of it on all fronts. I’m impressed. This is literally the first grow where I haven’t had deep purple stems (not the normal genetic purple).

I just added a second net to help deal with the stretching. The first net is where I flipped, so you can see the growth. Starting to get more pistils. Any day now the buttons will start forming Will be starting the Big Bud tomorrow.

Thanks for sharing your work friend. Looks like you are off to a good start already. I love your setup and looking forward to seeing those plants flower. Keep us posted.

Getting good happy growth. Stretch is moderate, although I hope it stops soon as I’m cutting it close on space lol but I think we’re good. Great node spacing too.

She is on a full strength dose of Sensi Coco Bloom A+B and Big Bud, 1.3 ml/gal of CalMag Xtra, 4ml/gal of Sensizym, and this product called S.O.S. by Liventia to keep my rez clean. My hydroshop recommended it over Hydroguard because it has more beneficial microbes. Seems to be working.

I’m gonna add the silicon in a couple days as I wanted the branches to still be pliable enough to train during the stretch.

Welp, I spoke way too soon, this strain is an insane stretcher. I’m only a few inches away from the light now. Also took a really long time for the buds to set. I do not recommend this strain for people with height limitations. I really gotta start paying attention to the stretch heights by the breeder lol this is the second grow in a row I had a huge stretcher.

Not sure what I can do now, it may be too late in the game for supercropping. Just gotta pray it slows down, been over 3 weeks.

On the plus side trichomes have already started dusting the leaves so this should be a frosty pheno.

Website is not letting me post pics right now I’ll add them later.

I just rolled up sleeves and went to work tying those suckers down. The branches were luckily still pliable enough. Onward.
