Flowering

I was completely kidding about the clones man, How many clones do you have to put in for the next batch?
I couldn't tell. I've had so many newbies on this site try to give me advice. I'm new to RIU but not at all new to growing.

I have 14 in flower now but I'm only going to do 12 next time. I have a couple extra clones though in case 100% of them don't root.

Thanks for showing interest :)

The best is yet to come

Thats a good plan, i read that you're usually working with clones. I would have saved a couple of seeds to grow out larger than you can in that sea of green situation. Seeds will usually grow 25% larger than clones.

Today is day 25 of flowering IMO. I call day 1 of flowering when the lights hit 12/12 but some people call day 1 of flowering the day sex shows.

Anyway, I am posting some pics of the ladies that I just took. There is a ton of trichomes forming on all of the plants. Even the fan leaves are starting to get covered. It's going to make some great bubble hash.

I hope you all enjoy. Reps and thoughts are always appreciated.

What are you expecting yield wise from this nomaninsf?
New strain for me. I don't like to make assumptions like that. Bad luck.

I just grow for my personal use so anything over few ounces per harvest is going to make me happy.

I do have a big yielder coming up soon though. Not this grow and not the next one but the one after that is going to be awesome. You'll see some giant giant giant yellowish orange colas covered in pistils.

These ladies are about half done and the next batch is under 18/6, soon to be 24/0, so the huge colas are only a few months away.

I see, thats a good way to look at it. And only another 6 weeks and you should be turing it into ash.

You made me curious though so I just looked. It looks like they have an average of about 1/2oz dry so far per plant. They will most likely at least double by harvest. 14 plants, 14oz. That would be nice. Theres a good chance I'll get more but I don't want to jinx myself.

I would hope for 18-21 grams per plant. I had an ebb and flow just like yours with a 600 watt HPS and usually the max you can squeeze out of them is an ounce with such little vegging time.

I upped my nutrients today from AN's moderately heavy feeding to heavy feeding. If I see any signs of nute burn tomorrow I'll add some straight water.

This is the last week of using Big Bud. Next week I start using overdrive. 2 Weeks of overdrive and then I'm going to start flush. I might do an extra week of overdrive if they don't look like developed enough in 3 weeks.

Room Temp: 74 average
pH: 5.5
Water Temp: 72
