Changed the reservoir tonight and got rid of a few leafs that were blocking light and just generally been a pain in the arse. The smell is absolutely amazing, it really is like a Refresher bar, and is getting a bit more sour, a bit like those sour lemon sweets, or sour lemon candy for my American friends!

I'm using Botanicare Sweet Citrus with this grow, not sure how good it is but I'm hoping its going to really bring out the limonene terpene profile of the Lemon Skunk that is in her genetics.

Next time round I want to do the same strain again, but instead of using the Sweet Citrus I want to use Terpinator and see the difference. Me and the bloke in the grow shop had a "quiet chat" (obviously they aren't supposed to talk about anything cannabis related, as all the hydroponic equipment is for growing tomatoes and chillies etc! ;-)) and he highly recommended Terpinator, said his buds frosted up immediately, well the next day!

Anyone had experience with Terpinator or Botanicares Sweet range?

I say this is what I want to do but it might change as there are loads of strains I want to try. LA Confidential and Chocolope are contenders for next grow

LMAO sounds really dangerous!

Definitely bound to be an interesting experiment, even if you leave it for later in the case your other strains win over it for now - you'll see when the time is ripe haha :D
While I do not know these products, there is definitely something to influencing the flavour of crops -- if it works by companion planting in the veggie garden, why not in the grow room?

I'm just wary of all these bottled products, I am realizing more and more how cannabis growing (along with organic gardening in general!) is a market segment for these nute companies and we may be being sold on stuff that isn't necessary at all.
But then again, I'm coming from another corner with my attempt to create a little ecosystem in my closet ;)

Looking good stick, she's coming along bucket mate. I'm with Cali. I wouldn't use all those additives but that's just me. I like to let the strain I grow do what it does and enjoy it. Having said that, if it helps yield, which I what I like and want then I would consider it.

Hasta la vista,baby!
They do a Sweet Berry as well that would work on the turpene profile of strains like blueberry, and one called Sweet Raw that is used for any strain that doen't have any of those particular profiles.
I'm also very wary of what is out there and of how much of it is useful or beneficial. I think I have made the right decisions up to now. I have just started using some completely new products, so hopefully all goes well! (:

I think the Sweet Citrus is a similar product to the Bud Candy that you were using, in the way it works on smell and flavour. What did you think of the Bud Candy?

Not much mate. Having said that I had issues last grow and this grow is mental, my girls are huge now. Haven't seen then them for 3 days.

Changed light last night to 400w and when I came into the room this morning they were flying all leaves reaching for the sky.
Early signs of flower really kicking in.

How long until harvest mate?

Nice looking girl there Stick. May I ask what seed company you stock up on seeds from? Those are some exquisite names. :D

They are all from DNA Genetics, theyve got some really good looking stuff! I ordered them from Dinafem, The packaging was good, came with a load of stickers and a couple of catalogues. But there was the Dinafem name and address on the envelope which isn't very stealthy! So I think I will be ordering from somewhere else next time. Always ordered from Rhino Seeds, but they always take ages to arrive. I've just found a new website, called Seed City, that does individual seeds as well! Which has reminded me, I need to look into them more and see if they are reputable! Cheers! :-P

Nice one, get some pics up mate. It's mad when you haven't seen them for a few days isn't it! I'm off on me travels in a bit and won't be back while Friday night, so I said fairwell to her this morning before lights off!
Should be harvesting in about 7 weeks. Shes on day 22 now, I'm aiming for 70 days flower, but whenever she's ready I suppose. Need to book some time off for when that time comes! I'm gonna pull off all the fan leaves, then use an hacksaw to cut through the main stalk right at the bottom and just hang her up altogether and get a really slow dry on the go!

Your right mate it is good when you haven't seen them. They grew a good 3 inches and small bud sites all over the joint.
Not to happy with the Haze I must say. It's really tall and stringy. Maybe they are suppose to be like that??
I'm really happy with the choc skunk and Deisel Berry though. Nice compact structure and I recon nice tight bud sites. Will get some shots up this week sometime.
Your Lemon Sheila is looking the shit!

Tall and stringy sounds about right for a sativa -- unless of course you train the hell out of them haha!
