Oh yes, but she's got a lovely stature -- and judging by that last pic from the side, she's investing the energy she culls from all that leafage well, never mind being shaded, those buds are filling in down there -- so, any complaints?Week 4, all is looking well, its really hard to see the buds though for all the leaf that covers it!View attachment 3694329
My only complaints are that I was expecting bigger buds for 3 full weeks of flower, but then again the LA Con is a notoriously slow plant and not a big yielder. Other than that Im really happy, she is so healthy, not a shit leaf in site and the amount of crystals on her at this stage is astonishing.Oh yes, but she's got a lovely stature -- and judging by that last pic from the side, she's investing the energy she culls from all that leafage well, never mind being shaded, those buds are filling in down there -- so, any complaints?
I think you've got her in the best possible shape!
She's a lovely looking plant mate, just been a pain. I'm hoping the buds turn out as nice as I hope, I've seen photos of LA Con that are purple but also just have a white coating from all the trichomesSexy looking dark lady you have there stick. I'm a like'n

Yeah she has -- but do you remember my Dusk? She was a pain to grow, had a low yield... but she was the better smoke of the two plants, such amazing aroma and taste! I do regret not having taken clones off her in retrospective!My only complaints are that I was expecting bigger buds for 3 full weeks of flower, but then again the LA Con is a notoriously slow plant and not a big yielder.

I just know it won't be a great yield, and she's been a bit of a pain in the arse to grow!
Will get some photos up tonight or in the morning!hey you forgot to update us on your darling?!
How's she coming along?
oh NO!! I can imagine the horror of the sightWill get some photos up tonight or in the morning!
Had a nasty shock this morning, one of the side branches was covered in mold, so had to completely chop that cola down! Lost a few grams and got the rest of the cola drying out!
Need to sort out the airflow!
I should have prepared better for this, its a big bushy plant, I knew what I was in for, but the affected site was a side branch on the outside of the plant, I would have expected it being in the middle of the bush where all the buds are bunched together. I've just stook the big 12inch oscillating fan in there, something I should have done a few weeks ago. Oh well, you live and learn! Pictures in the morning!oh NO!! I can imagine the horror of the sight
Yeah absolutely, that air needs to circulate -- but you already had so much going in there?!?
Anyway I hope the chopped branch cuts this drama short!
Awww mannn, sorry to hear! Fuckin mold!Will get some photos up tonight or in the morning!

Eww!! lolIt was a completely different mold problem to what I have encountered before. In the past the bud rot has been on nearly finished flowers that went really dry. This mold has been really wet, I noticed a dead leaf looking through the canopy so spun the plant round to take a look and just saw all this furry purple shit, it started from the stem and worked its way up the bud and was soggy and slimy as fuck! Yuk!
Could be it's that one?? Weird!!Pink, Fusarium and Gibberella
X fusarium, the non-reproductive stage of gibberella -- white to pink or salmon-coloured mold with a "streaking" or "star-burst" pattern. Fusarium attacks cells by secreting mycotoxins that dissolve cell walls so that the fungus is then able to eat the cell's contents, enter the cell cavity and reproduce. Produces a toxin called fumonisin which can cause liver and kidney damage and birth defects. It was used to create biological warfare agent "yellow rain". Mostly infects corn and other cereals, toxin mostly affects pigs and horses. Mold can grow in potted plants in hosptials and toxins can affect immunosuppressed patients. Caution: don't eat anything with pink mold and especially don't breathe or take in any.
X gibberella, the reproductive stage of fusarium -- dark pink, red or purple. Produces:
* gibberellin, a plant hormone that promotes cell elongation and is good for flower formation, and seedling growth;
* vomitoxin or deoxynivalenol, an estrogen toxin that causes anorexia or lack of weight gain in animals but is not considered highly toxic in humans (that is, you would have to eat a lot of infected grain to be affected by it); and
* zearalenone, a mycoestrogen that causes abortions in animals.
Mostly infects corn and other cereals. Caution: don't eat anything with pink, red or purple mold. If accidentally, ingested, no treatment is required provided the toxin source is removed. Symptoms will go away 3-4 weeks after eliminating suspect food.
