@808newb How much longer do you think you have to go with that plant? It looks like you have a ways to go still from the pic.
I went ahead and chopped her....changing up the gh for the long season. It may be nothing, or may have everything to do with the longer flowering, but something was burrowing up the stalk from about 3" above the soil all the way up to where the branches all split.

The sample smoke I took off her a couple weeks ago was awesome, now it's killa. I really wished I could have seen it thru to the end...I still have one clone off her tho. Kinda wonder if I should even dedicate a space for the purple haze since it's listed as a 20 week plant and who knows how far past that she will go.haha

@Mohican dude ur backyard looks fing sick. That's what mine would look like if I could get away with it!

@rikdabrick - Yes I have grown AC before - but it was in the spring. Fireball, Animal Cookies crossed with Paki Punch. This is the first time that I am growing it without seeds (maybe).



Cheers,

@Rookie808 What are you growing in? What are you feeding?
fox farm ocean mix, and i WAS feeding GH, but my plants always acted like they were gettin nute burn. I was using half strength too. the sun is just so bright in july that they just soak it up waaaay fast. first summer ive grown, 2nd of my life. ive been using filtered tap water, but not RO water. Ive only fed them 3 times, and theyve been outside now for 2 weeks. 2 plants grew huge. 2 plants stayed small, and one in the middle. all planted at the same time. weird.

so as an update, one plant (these are white widow x big buds and 1 northern lights) had curling, brown leaf tips... rust colored... on otherwise green leaves. dozens of leaves fell off, i cut a bunch off too with sterile, sharp scissors. so much new growth grew back that it almost looks perfectly healthy and green everywhere. at one point, i thought it was going to die.

another plant has no rusty curling tips, but many yellow leaves. i think i may have been underwatering... my skills at determining moisture in a 10 gallon fabric pot arent great. ive been watering more, getting more accurate, and its the biggest bush out there. i topped the hell outta my plants so theyre more spheres than trees.

i also learned that spinosad isnt enough. i got sick of my lack of success and went to the trouble of using neem oil. wish i wouldve done that from the jump. holy shit the few bugs on there went running for cover. id find one or two leaves theyd gather on an hour later and just remove the leaf altogether. Heres a video of what it looked like under a small microscope for the iphone... i see aphids, but cant recognize the others 100%. can anyone else?


ill take pictures of my plants tomorrow to see if anyone can help. maybe it IS a magnesium issue someone else mentioned? good god are there a lot of variables to growin herb... its intimidating the amount to learn...

So here are pics of the 5 plants. sorry I'm not all that great and choosing angles.... maybe should have separated em, but ya... mostly good and recovering, still some nagging issues after 2 weeks outside. Any and all advice is mucho appreciated

tallest


widest




below is the only northern lights plant. the rest are WWxBigBud hybrids. as you can see, its lighter green than the others, and the only one that isnt getting better... its slowly getting worse.

Week 10 today and things are looking and smelling tastey...hopefully not much longer:bigjoint:
The colas are huge but side branching is a little wimpy
I mislabeled these as liberty haze x THC bomb X dark devil when they are actually just liberty haze X dark devil I feminized.

Lemon/lime grapes

I call these the red velvet pheno because they are like a swirl of light green and almost blood red when you cut open a fresh bud

I'm trying to let them go as long as can but Mother Nature might have mo say in it with the storm...I mean my green is one of my staples in my hurricane preparedness kit so must replenish what's going to be used up during those long dayz and nites with no power haha
