Your plants in the 15 gallon pots look very healthy though. Small pots deft need some nitrogen added for sure. Fish compost is high in nitrogen if you are just wanting too dress but there are lots of organic fertilizer options out there for sure. But fish compost tea will do a lot for veg state growth.
Thanks. My basement is filled with amendments. I use all kinds of stuff.

I've got lots of N sources. Mexican Bat is a good one for just N.

I'm a huge fan of guano! Bat and seabird is in my canna beds now. Before I was real big on veganic only ammendments, I found alpaca shit is very gentle just like rabbit. But something was missing in the flowers terpene and color. That missing link, was guano. I will not ever grow without it now.

Ya, I didn't think it was light burn on mine either even though I did turn them up.

Now I'm thinking the K blast might have made some of the other nutrients harder for the plant to access. Just don't know which one since it can cause issues with a bunch of nutes.

Thanks.
Have you tried to hit your girls with some hum/fulv acids.

Chopped 1 GDP down this morning. Gonna let the others sit for a good week or so longer. Gotta get some ready to take to some friends. It was a little early on the harvest but still nice

Looks fire! What's the terpene profile?

I just flipped mine on the 3rd. Pics are from the 10th. Tomorrow the 17th is 2 weeks from flip and not much stretch. Mabey 1/3 at most. Got some clones from her I'm going to make some F1's with some Alien Technology (Fem) pollen.
Back in the mid 90's I was lucky enough to know the right guy who had connections with obT33, the original breeder. I made hundreds of S1's and every couple years, I'll germ a bean and reverse her for fresh pollen.

Terpenes are nice and stout! Has a diesely/greasy almost smell lol! Very flavorful. I went to take a branch to my neighbor and was knocking on his front door when he popped his head out of his shop about 30 ft away. There was a slight breeze blowing his way and he said “holy shit you brought me some dank ass weed, I can smell it all the way over here!!” It is very pungent!! Tents looking very nice BTW. I bet you get some legit smoke with that strain. Looks very healthy!

Lol, I bet he caught a whiff. Your crop looks A1 broski, I'd be proud to share it amongst friends. Just wait till it's dried, your trichome concentration increases, and yours is gonna be super frosty.

Thanks. I have no room for weak or compromised genetics. If I have anything I don't like I'll just veg the shit out of it and chop them when 4ft tall. Lots of nutrients to render back into elemental form, and to feed worms and compost tumbler.
Oh yeah, she definitely puts out. The best way to grow her indoors is either manifold her for (4) big colas, or scrog. Her buds are very chunky.
I was planning on reveging her over the hot summer months and filling the 4x8 corner to corner. That or make a ton of clones and employ the manifold pruning.

Thank you very much sir!! And yeah it feels good to hand a buddy a big fat gorgeous big or branch of nugs to enjoy. Lol the 4x8 filled out would be a sick site to see! I want to work on a plant like that one session. Fill a 4x4 with 1 plant and giant pot. I’m always just scared of having all my eggs in one basket.!! The manifold is more work but possibilities of losing everything from 1 fuck up is far less likely. I gotta get my mold prevention and setup a little more routine to do the 1 giant ass plant!

The big ones are fun to watch grow. And talk about a huge boost to ones confidence when everything goes as planned. Literally 2" of new growth per day with a massive root structure. It is quite a chore tho, pruning, lst, pinching, defoliating.... it's one of the big reasons I went living soil. With all the maintenance of a big plant comes lots of watering too and that's where the blumats come in for the big WIN, everytime!

If you like how she crops out we can talk about getting you some seeds. I know you'd do her justice. She isn't for beginners skill.

Looking very nice my man! And yeah throw up a thread and I’ll follow that for sure! I wanna see what that beast is gonna do. Yeah the maintenance, mold watch, Pest prevention,watering and many many other tasks along the way would be so worth it if I could manage it to the end. Just want the right pheno also that is worth throwing down on.

That's not a bad idea, to put up a thread.
I have 2 strains and 4 phenos going right now. My ambitions weren't very high when I started the first strain. I threw in another about 2 weeks ago after being motivated from this forum.

Anyone who would take his neighbor a freshly harvested branch for free, is a person I'd want to share my genetics for free. So yeah, ... Keep your eye out from time to time, I'll show them off.

Word!! That’s what it’s all about for me, putting in some hard work so everyone can enjoy! Much funner when everyone’s got a smile on their face for sure! And thank you man! I would put a lot of love into the grow for sure! No half ass shit!!
