1200w HPS Indoor Closet Hempy Grow, 3 strains - (Updated Pics 7-31-10)
    #396525 - 04/05/10 03:00 PM (13 years, 11 months ago)

*******This was a 600w grow till around the 5th/6th week of flower when I added another 600w light*******

This grow contains:

2x White Widow x Big Bud (Female Seed Co)
2x Venus Flytrap (Nirvana) fem
3x ICE          (Nirvana) fem
1x Safari Mix    (Mandala) freebie.. (BOY)


These are growing in straight perlite, I started them in jiffy pellets, every one I planted came up. Been above ground since April 3rd, just moved them into their temp. home in plastic cups. Will be moved to 5gal buckets when they fill out the cups.

Was seriously considering SCRoG, but I think I may just end up tying them down..

Will post pics in a day or two, after they get some real leaves.

------------------------

-Bagseed are still a little sickly from a ph imbalance about a month long, have the meter now though, they are coming around, I'll post them once they green up some more.

-Now using the AN 3-part in Lucas ratio for the bagseed.

-Obtained a bottle of FloraNova Grow today, this will be used on the good seeds, plan to pick up the bloom next month after I'm getting a little closer to the 12/12 switch, will probably suppliment with Kool Bloom, and maybe Gravity, not 100% decided yet. Also Picked up Dark Energy "A proud Product of Humboldt County" actually made by American Hydro.. The guys at my local shop seem to love the stuff.

First update 4-8. They are 5 days old.

First Venus Flytrap


Second Venus Flytrap


White Widow x Big Bud #1


and #2


Mandala Safari Mix, Seed #1


Ice plant #1 (No more curled leaf!)


Ice #2


-----------------------------------------

Couple pics for today, 4-10-10.

Two ice plants seem to be doing well.


The Mandala Safari Mix plant seems to be growing the quickest.


And Here's a shot of the bagseed plants as promised.

Bout a month old, just been getting the right Ph and HID for about a week now. They did have lockout pretty bad before that.. Seem to be coming back pretty well though.

-----------------------------------

4-12-10, Noticed weird growth from one of my WWxBB crosses, the growth tip isn't like one I've seen before, its more of a "cup" at the tip, and the stem connecting it to the main stem seems elongated.



-----------------------------------

Update 4-14-10

Good solid growth from all of them, they got their first dose of Floranova grow last night, 190ppm and ph of 5.9. Seem to be doing fine with it so far.

Ice #1


Ice #2


WW x BB #1


WW x BB #2 Still looking retarded with no growth tip, think I'm gonna have to wait till it branches between the first node to get some action.


Venus Fly Trap #1


Venus Fly Trap #2


Mandala Safari Mix plant, still the beast of the group, probably a male..


-------------------------
Still 4-14
Starting to FIM and LST the bagseed, now that they are regaining health.

First FIM on the shortest and widest bagseed.


This one also got FIM'd and is really branching out good on the bottom, not sexed yet though, I'm leaning male.. :sad:


Though here's one from the same seed and it is a girl. :grin:
Starting to branch out nicely


This one was tall and lanky with no bottom growth at all, I had even removed the bottom fans because they were basically dead anyway, I tied this thing down barely a week ago, and look at all the new growth already.


Same one top view.


---------------

4-20-10 / 18 days old.

Ice #1

Ice #2


Venus Flytrap #1

Venus Flytrap #2


White Widow x Big Bud #1


White Widow x Big Bud #2, turned out how I thought, I guess it'll just grow topped from the start. What a weird lookin' plant..


And finally, the Mandala monster.


---------- 4/29/10

Here's a few group shots, of the main 7 and the 2 newest seedlings, I feel like the growth is kinda lackluster for 26 days on these bigger ones.. I don't know :shrug:

They got a little burn goin' on because I raised the lights a little. They all also seem to be having the first set of leaves yellowing and drooping, I thought it was signs of being cramped at first, but I checked roots on the biggest one and they are just reaching the bottom.. If you have any ideas I'm open to suggestions.



And the bagseed ladies got consolidated:


-----------------------Update 5/3/10

Ice 1 & 2


Venus Flytrap 1 & 2


WW X BB #1


My favorite plant now in training, White Widow x Big Bud #2


Mandala Plant


And then heres Ice & WWxBB #3


------------------
Update 5/19, Two weeks after transplant of main six.

First up, white widow x big bud #2, I fucking love this plant, its growing beatifully.


Next is the best Flytrap which I think was number two?


And here's the best Ice plant


And here's my still untransplanted seedlings that could obviuosly be bigger because of it, and the bag tub.

----------*************------------************----------*********-----
5/29
Gonna switch to flower tomorrow. Here they are:

Largest of the bunch, the two monster ICE plants.


Next up, The Fly Trap Sisters:
, Top shot

Here's our White Widow x Big Bud girls:


And last and least(size anyway) Ice and WWxBB number three:


---***---***---***---***

Flowering update number one 6/14, two weeks into flower. I didn't take individual pics, I'm super lazy today, I'll get more in a day or two.






*******************************************************
6/17, Week three. Eighteen Days into flowering.
Still in randoom order, I'm really slackin' these days..


*********************************

Flowering update # 3, 24 days flowering.

Here's the Ice plants:


WWxBB:


Flytrap:


**********************************************
Flowering update number 4. 33 days flowering.



************************************

Flowering Update number 5, 38 days into flower.

Venus Flytrap number 2:


White Widow x Big Bud number 2:
Geting some seriously dense buds on this one, you can see in a couple pictures the angle the branches are growing at because of the weight already.



ICE number 2:


*********************************

Flowering Update number 6, 44 days into flower.

Ice 1:


Ice 2:


Ice 3:


VFT 1:
 

VFT 2:


White Widow x Big Bud 2:  leaning hard from heavy ass colas.


White Widow x Big Bud 3: This is the one that smells like juicy fruit gum.



***** Update 7 I think? Flowering day number 62.*************

One of the Fly Trap's got chopped down this past sunday, which was the 8 week mark on the nose. I also harvested WWxBB II a day or two previous to that and it was highly unimpressive and thats why there are no pics, I just decided I'd smoke on that one for now to keep me going until I can get a proper dry and atleast short cure. Theres that and my Ice plants still have a fuck ton of white pistils and clear trichome's.. Even though its nearly leafless and quite yellow, trying to keep it alive, it got a small dose of just FNB yesterday, I wanna let it finish out right but I don't wanna keep giving it food... Anyway, here's the Flytrap 'fore it got knocked down.


And heres a couple shots of whats left of the girls in the garden. They were taken through my passive intake on the end of the room.

Yup, sure is. I'm liking it so far, took me a little while to get the swing of things. Tortured some bagseed gettin' used to it, hoping to have some good results.

I also decided to stop fooling around and went ahead to the store and picked up a bottle of Floranova grow. I'll keep the AN stuff around for my bagseed and whatever else it comes in handy for, seems to do well on the girlfriends herb garden.

For seedlings I don't really fill the bottom Hempy style, I just keep wetting them a little everyday so that the top layer of perlite stays wet and supply's good moisture to the seedlings, this is important when you have such little plants under HID lighting, they can dry out quick.


Regular watering of mature plants get's done about every three days, if they look like they're doing well on food I will water with just ph corrected water every other time. Sometimes when they are hungry I may feed them two three times in a row. That will probably change quite a bit after the transplant though, and as the plants progresses through different stages.

Decided to start one more Ice and one more WW x BB, as I am looking at keeping a mother of both. Figured three of each gives me a little better chance at having a nice vigorous mom. Not to mention the one ww x bb is being all retarded and lacking a true growth tip at the moment.

correct me if Im wrong.. I know trying not to over water is important. but if you added a little bit extra, would the heat from your HID evaporate upwards kinda hydrating your perlite as it evaporated?

The lights do evaporate the moisture to an extent, but it seems they only effect the first inch or so of medium. After that, if you just dig down a little you can tell its still moist.

The perlite wicks pretty well though, say if you just water one side of the container, the other side will become moist pretty quickly.

So here's Ice #3 just trasplanted into a cup.


And here's White Widow x Big Bud #3 just trasplanted as well. Three cotyledons showing with only two real leaves showing, maybe the third will grow in by tomorrow.

When I can find it, cheap garden wire, just plastic coated steel wire. When I don't have that, I have some insulated, solid core, copper wire that works great too.
I make the wire into a little hook on both ends, pop a hole in the cup, hook in the one end, bend the plant over and hook it(about 2-2.5 inches above rim of the cup). Once I see secondary shoots growing out and they get long enough I put a little hook around them too.

Best thing to do is play around a little bit and see what works best for you. Everyone has a slightly different angle on tying their plants down, and all kinds of different methods work well.

Sure, it keeps the plant short, makes it bush out and puts most of the lower budsites (that normally wouldn't get much light) at a more even level with the top of the plant so you get multiple main cola's. Also increases branching, thus creating more budsite's.

Works great if you are confined on space, but you will probably notice people without space constraints using this method too. I think LST is the shit, and everyday I watch my babies grow while being trained I can see how much potential they are gaining as opposed to not being trained.

So I stuck my seedlings on top of a bucket to put them up about 14 inches closer to the light, which would still be more than 12 inches away.. They hate me for it. All sad and droopy, hopefully they come back around and perk up later. Just another fine example showing you that light stress is real. I usually only go a couple inches at a time, and I went and got anxious. Now I feel a little dumb..

So I stuck my seedlings on top of a bucket to put them up about 14 inches closer to the light, which would still be more than 12 inches away.. They hate me for it. All sad and droopy, hopefully they come back around and perk up later. Just another fine example showing you that light stress is real. I usually only go a couple inches at a time, and I went and got anxious. Now I feel a little dumb..




Ideally you want 375 lumens hitting seedlings and early clones as anything less can promote stretchiness and anything more will not be absorbed. If I vegged with my 600 I would keep it 48+" away until they are well established fwiw. I'm sure they will bounce back strong in a couple days you have a nice setup and know what you're doing.

Thanks, man. I'm sure you're right, I gave them a little feeding to cool em off and set them back down to around 30" away where they have been going strong.

48 inches, huh? I may just pull it back some, when I had it about 38" away I felt like they weren't getting enough light. I think you may be onto something though,  new seedlings that I've been keeping partially shaded are still a little stressed it seems.. And the light was down a few inches since last time.

I'm gonna pull it up a little more and see how they respond.

I can't wait to get my future room cleared out, it was a storage room and its still packed, I need it sooo bad so I can actually divide it and have a seperate seedling/veg area. It's killin' me to be stuck in this closet. New room is about 12 x 12. :smile:

Feeding lightly, they were getting 200ppm until last night I stepped it up to 325..

Oh that's definitely the problem. Those bigger ones are definitely old enough to be getting 500ppm at least. are the big ones still in solo cups also? If so then the lack of root space will be slowing them down significantly.

Yeah, the bigger ones are in like 14oz cups, same as the seedlings. I checked root growth on the big mandala plant and they are thick and very healthy but just barely touching the bottom of the cup. I'm still gonna transplant soon, I just realized I have to get quite a bit of water ready(evaporate the chlorine). So as as soon as its ready I will transplant to buckets.

You're completely right on the feeding, I thought they were just getting cramped because of those lower leaves yellowing and drooping, but paired with the yellowish apical tip(which I wasn't really noticing), they must be hungry.

How long of a period do you recommend I increase the doasge over?

in hempy's you can step it up over just like 2 feedings. 325 was your last one, like 400-425 next one, then 500 after that
just keep an eye on them to see if they get pissed, but you should be fine

So, turns out I was underfeeding, by quite a bit. The jump from 200 to 325 showed a considerable change in growth, I increased again today to 435. I will post some pictures up tomorrow to see how they do with this strength.

Just to let you know how underfed they were, I fed the two small seedlings, about 2 weeks old, the same 325ppm feeding and they blew up over night with no kind of burn. I'm solidly in love with this Floranova now, I wouldn't even consider anything else.

The two smaller seedlings are on 435ppm as of yesterday and doing great, and the others are up to 575ppm as of this morning. Bagseeds are at 765ppm, as if anyone cares about those, they are just gonna get turned into hash anyway.

Yeah man, I'm hoping they are gonna really blow up now. Before I was judging root mass by one of my biggest, well it turns out all the other had way more roots and were already bound. Where the one ww x bb I was looking at had roots just barely reaching the bottom.

And ppm is now at 605 :smile:

Three week old seedlings got 600ppm yesterday evening and had quite a growth spurt because of it. Making me think I need to have these other plants up around 700-850 because they are two weeks older, and still not growing very fast.. I suppose being transplanted into the five gallon buckets they are gonna need a week or so to hit the res before they resume growth.

My target was to be able to flower around the first of this month, but the size just isn't there and I'm not gonna sacrafice yield due to my lack of patience. So, we'll see how they look on the first of June, and that will most likely be the switch date, or hopefully that first week anyway.

Anyone got a rough estimate on a cup size root ball reaching the bottom of this bucket? I buried the plants so that the bottom of the root mass was about in the middle of the bucket, maybe a cunt hair lower.

are your plants? soaking up all the nutes really fast? I fed my shit friday night and did a llittle training today and there dry as hell at the bottoms of the cups..  I got decent humidity in the room about 60 percent..  I just cant figure out if its plants soaking the shit up or there just drying out?

Completely normal, once the roots start filling in you may end up watering as much as every day / every other day before you transplant into something larger, and once you do that you will fall back to being able to water every couple days again, once they hit the bottom.

How high up do you have your drainage hole?

id say 1.5 to 2 inches from the bottom maybe? Im gonna update pics tomorrow.. I fed them friday and two days later they exploded with growth got a new chute popping out and almost got full leaves.. I bought some of this shit and threw it on the roots.. I think it works well and you cant beat the price.. I got it for about 15 bucks. compared to voodoo juice and the subculture shit. http://www.aurorainnovations.org/oregonism_xl.html

Waited two weeks for my picture update just to test out what Harry said about them exploding after the transplant.

Well.. I will let you guys be the judge, gonna shoot a few pics in a little while before I start more training. Currently they have all been FIM'd and tied over once.

I have to do some serious work on the bagseed tub too, its gone crazy with growth, I've been pinching and snipping left and right and it continues to grow at a rapid pace. Will get a couple shots of it too.

There it is, enjoy. Those top three plants will be cloned right before flowering and the clones will be put under flouros to start as mom's. Once these get flowered I will make final decisions on whether to keep mom's or move on to bigger and better strains.


Oh yeah, they are feeding at 1070ppm now, which is 8ml FN grow and 4ml Dark Energy. Still seems like they want/could take more too.

Going to get flowering nutes on friday. I'm gonna try and get the little ones into buckets tonight after I use the buckets to pasteurize some coir really quick.. :mushroom2:

Got Ice and WWxBB number three transplanted into their new homes yesterday evening. I'm hoping they do similar to how the others did when I transplanted them, because there's still ten days for them to grow out before the bulb and timer switch. Really starting to get an even, full canopy in there, buckets are two rows of four. Now I'm gonna make you wait till the first for more pictures. :wink:


Now feeding them all at 1200ppm and they are soakin' it up, I don't plan on going any higher than this(maybe a cunt hair more in bloom). Decided on using Humboldt's 'Ginormous' for flowering, got the FloraNova Bloom, also picked up some Snow Storm Ultra. Gonna keep them on the Dark Energy through flowering too.

So my HPS bulb went haywire, lit up like the 4th of July and burnt like 5-6 growth tips on my Ice plants and then stopped working. Got a new one on the way, just running my halide on 12/12 for now.

Considering doing a flush this weekend, as they haven't had one yet.. I figure it's probably better to go ahead and clean 'em out before we get too far into flowering because problems then may cost yield and that's not cool.

Sorry to hear about the bulb. Did it mess with the light cycle at all or was the halide already going too? Also what kind of ballast and what brand of bulb if you don't mind me asking?

The bulb was just a HTG brand POS. Yeah, messsed the light cycle up for about +/- 48 hours, just not sure of the extent. It would stay on for a while, then shut off for 5 minutes and restart by itself.. Which is crazy being that the ballast was staying on the whole time, so it wasn't seeing an ignintion pulse to start. Then it went out for good and I manually restarted with no problem.. Never seen a bulb act so loopy. Thank goodness its the bulb and not the ballast. (knock on wood)

The ballast itself is also from HTG, it's their Digital Greenhouse line. So far, so good, its been flawless. Run's quiet as can be and has never gotten more than "warm", I expected it to put out more heat, but it stays cool as a fan. Next round is gonna bring name brand equiptment and this setup will go on the shelf for "backup".

I'm really hoping the stress isn't gonna cause me any problems..

Just picked up dry Kool Bloom and Bushmaster a while ago. These Ice plants are just really pushing vertical limits of my lighting system and I'm only a week into flower. I'll probably let them put on another couple inches before I apply that.

One must remember when growing cannabis, growth does not follow a certain rate, actually it's exponential as the plant grows.

Yeah, I'm gonna do an update soon, I was trying to wait till two weeks into flower so you could actually tell they were in bloom. Sunday will be the two week mark, couple more days.

Just put the Bushmaster in two days ago, gonna add one more application tomorrow and then flush on Friday and Saturday. This will be the first flush, next one will be before harvest. Honestly, I probably wouldn't have flushed except at the end of the cycle, but with the Bushmaster I figured it was a good idea.

Not the fault of your methods. You thinking it was genetic or related to the dark cycle problem?

Also, were you able to sex the other ones yet?

Yeah, very likely related to the bulb, it was one that got partially burnt from it. It's from Female Seeds Co. which apparently uses the best process for feminizing. Who knows.

The rest have been showing female preflowers for at least the past 5 weeks.

It was an all feminized grow, being that I was working with a small space and wanted things done quickly I decided to try it out, hopefully the others are a little more stable.

One plant in the bagseed tub showed a male sack as well, I pulled that whole thing outa there too. I'm considering starting some of these Original HazexSkunk #1 as a 12/12 from seed thing for backup. Or maybe the Neville's x Jack Herer from Female Seed Co..

There's some bud pictures for you, I was lazy and didn't want to clear out the whole grow area for seprate pics, I'll make sure to get individual pictures for the next update.

They are now feeding on 8ml FN BLoom, 8ml Kool BLoom, and 3ml Snow Storm Ultra. Last recorded strength was 1280ppm.

Also, upon further inspection, there is no female flowers on the WWxBB plant, so I have a male, could be potential breeding.. We'll see how these clones pull through and maybe I'll put one outside and pollinate it.

Sweet, the switch to flowering is the most exciting for me. It's so much cooler to watch them progress through the flowering cycle rather than the veg cycle. That, and when they start producing trichomes I get giddy like a school girl on Christmas morning.  :awesanta:

So on the 9th I took six clones, two from the best of each of the three main strains. Started to yellow yesterday, tugged on 'em this morning, and they are rooted. I expect roots to pop out of the pellet either tomorrow or the next day. Barely over a week from a flowering plant is pretty fucking fantastic if you ask me. The only thing I can attribute it to, is probably the solution I used.. Dyna-Gro K-L-N, I didn't expect it to do so well, it was the cheapest thing I could find.. :shrug:

Day 24 picture update.

Also, if things go according to plan, I will be recieving a second 600w light setup within the next week. 1200 watts, here I come. Hoping that just having it in the last 4 weeks of flower will make a good improvement, because some of my girls are NOT recieving adequate light coverage, I've been rotating the best I can, but I really need the extra light..

It's very simple to setup, the only thing I can see being a little messy is the perlite, because when you spill it, it goes everywhere.

Start out with a solo/dixie cup, and just make a mini hempy out of it. Put a small hole in the side about 3/4"-1" above the bottom. The original "Hempy" medium would be 3 parts perlite to one part verm, I think. I chose to do it the easy way and just use straight perlite.. Seems to work just fine. I check the weight of the cup to know when they need water, you want it to weight pretty close to nothing before you re-water. Move on to 2-5 gallon buckets after that, put your overflow hole about 1-1.5" from the bottom and thats about it. Most people make sure they get a little bit of runoff out of the hole during every watering as to keep any salts from building up, and this is a very good idea. Though I must mention I've been through my whole grow without a drop of runoff, I just give them plain water every few weeks to dilute the resovoir at the bottom and they seem to do just fine. Probably not the best thing to do, but it works for me for now.

Some people like to only feed every other watering, I feed every time, couple different opinions on this, I would probably go ahead and feed everytime atleast until the plants show signs of not liking it.

If there's anything else in particular you want to know about let me know.

Yeah, I have a 30x jeweler's loupe I was using, little hard to get the focus right, came out alright though.

Good luck with the hempy cups, I'm sure you'll be pleased with the results, they seem to be quite efficent.

Thanks, man! Believe it or not the smell is kept completely under control by my carbon filter, I have to literally stick my face in the caopy to get a whiff. One of my WWxBB plants is now smelling like juicy fruit gum, I am gonna try and save this if I can get a long flowering clone to root.. Gotta put my bubble cloner together today.

You should have made clones of all of them anyhow, pass one of each onto a mate then when you find a good one you just take his tops round and round :smile:

Juicy fruit scent mmmmmmmmmmmmm

Yeah, I know, I had taken some clones, but only from the vigorous looking ones in veg, and being that this particular plant was younger by a couple weeks, it stayed pretty small so I didn't even think to get any from it, same with the other ICE(3) thats super frosty, it got planted with that other one and was small. Plus I went out of state for a couple days and kinda killed the other clones I took, except for like 3.. So I got some new ones going now, and soon as I finish this cloner I'm gonna take some undergrowth shoots from WWxBB and ICE numbers 3. I wish you could smell that WWxBB plant, its so sweet and fruity.

I'm hoping using the bubble cloner will aid in getting them rooted quicker, as opposed to my normal method of jiffy pellets. I've never tried to clone this far into flowering, but I guess we'll see how it goes.

They are getting so frosty and tasty looking, I just clipped a tester even though theres a mininmum of three weeks left.. Really curious to see what they're like now, before full potency. It's in the oven on warm for a couple hours.  :ganja:

Geting some seriously dense buds on this one, you can see in a couple pictures the angle the branches are growing at because of the weight already.

I even thought that exact thought.

Funny, you, Lucid and I are all flowering on the exact same day...  :happyweed:  Nice job dude those are going to be some huge dense ass buds when they are finished.  Everything looks right on schedule, when do you plan to flush if I may ask?  I also took the same amount of testers today, some shaded branches that were sucking energy and I am so surprised at how potent it is at this stage.

Thats cool that we've got the same schedule going. I wasn't 100% on the flush date, but I've been thinking around the 17th. I'm trying to keep a close eye on trichomes to get a better estimation of when they are gonna finish. I'm guessing they aren't all gonna hit on the 25th which is the 8 week mark. Looks like atleast three will be damn close by then though.

Yeah, I had tried a small but frosty bud about a week and a couple days ago and I didn't notice too much potency, but I can say that they are definitely building potency in the sixth week.

Yup, I figure another week or so, the Ice plants are rated at 8-10 weeks, and they still have clear trichomes and very few red pistils so it looks like they may go a while. The FlyTrap and WWxBB should be finishing up soon though.

I had ignored them for a few days and went in on the 16th to find them with a ton of yellow leaves and looking droopy, so I flushed them out then. It was only a 3 gallon flush and that brought runoff down to around 100-125ppm, so I figure another 3 gallon flush for each in a day or two for the two strains that are gonna finish soon. Then maybe in about 3-5 days I'll do the Ice plants too.

When I did that flush initial runoff was around 500-600ppm and PH was in check at around 6.0, so I don't know what caused them to get so unhappy. They are looking better now, most of them are pretty yellow at this point, but they are perky too.

So they got flushed days ago and now they are not wanting to finish so they are like completely yellow. Think I may have screwed up a little.. I might give them a dose of just Floranova a little later on so they have some kind of nourishment to finish, because atleast three of them need 1-2 weeks by the looks of them.. Baah.

Bummer.  Yeah, 1-2 weeks seems like enough time to feed once more and still flush again.

As far as trichomes go, around when do you generally start the flush?  Can you wait until a few start turning amber before beginning flushing, or is that too late?

Not sure, I think its probably somewhat strain dependant, because from what I've seen some plants will go all amber faster than others. Usually you wanna schedule your flush around when your strain should finish, could be done by the trichomes too I suppose.

***** Update 7 I think? Flowering day number 62.*************

One of the Fly Trap's got chopped down this past sunday, which was the 8 week mark on the nose. I also harvested WWxBB II a day or two previous to that and it was highly unimpressive and thats why there are no pics, I just decided I'd smoke on that one for now to keep me going until I can get a proper dry and atleast short cure. Theres that and my Ice plants still have a fuck ton of white pistils and clear trichome's.. Even though its nearly leafless and quite yellow, trying to keep it alive, it got a small dose of just FNB yesterday, I wanna let it finish out right but I don't wanna keep giving it food... Anyway, here's the Flytrap 'fore it got knocked down.


And heres a couple shots of whats left of the girls in the garden. They were taken through my passive intake on the end of the room.

Yeah, man, I like to have them at peak potency thats for sure. I have some pretty serious back problems and it helps me with the pain. Actually allows me to be useful around the house.

Thank you very much for the compliments! And yes they are getting quite aromatic, even with the scrubber running 24hrs the pleasant aroma is not slap you in the face powerful, but light and even a little fruity, definitely not something I'm complaining about. I love it.


SmelloVision makes me think of Man V. Food I saw the other day, lol  :pizza:

Yeah, show is about a guy who goes all over the US to find the best restraunts in the country and on every episode they have a "challenge" from whichever given place, then he tries eating 3lbs of pancakes, or 9lbs of seafood, 5lb steak's etc..

Back pain is some of the worst pain you can deal with, I know exactly what you're talking about with the pain down the leg, the sciatic nerve that causes that, what a bitch too.

Can't wait to get some harvest pics of the Ice, they are quite a bit more frosty compared to that Flytrap. It feels like they are never going to finish, this is 9 weeks today.. Every one I have left, 3 ice, 1 Flytrap and 1 WWxBB all are gonna go to atleast week ten. So next sunday will be the ten week mark, they better get ready cause its gonna be choppin' time.

I better pick some shorter finishing strains.. Really I goofed on this grow because I treated them all like 8 week strains as far as a flush and feeding schedule and none of them are 8 weeks strains looking back over the specs on them.. Oh well, I'm gonna pull them trough far as I can without food and hope they finish out well. They are already quite lovely and potent too so I can't end up too bad off. You should see them, they look crazy the way the calyx's are stacking one atop the next, buds have completely lost that rounded shape.

So in the end I got about 1.5 oz a plant. Pretty unstoked about that, I mean its fire as hell and smokes hard, but I should have had double that. There were some contributing factors. I over veg'd and ended up having to use bushmaster, and I never flushed afterwards.. After that I basically just expected they were all gonna finish out around 8 weeks and I flushed accordingly, well, turns out they wanted to go 10+ weeks, so they got starved the last coule weeks.

Alreadys in peat pods now:

3x Venus Fly Trap

2x Nirvana Ice

3x White Widow x Big Bud

Figured i might as well use them up before I move on.

And then there's these:

4x Neville's Haze Hybrid (Female Seed Co.)    Which I can't tell genetics on, I've read that it was Nev Haze x Jack Herer, then I've also read that its Nev Haze x Grapefruit..
