my NYCD experience...

[jonask]

They look fine!

Buds sites are now more visible,
already have some purple appearing on one of my NYCD,
the polyploid looks like a little monster (really curious of what coming out of there) and the skunks are looking great
alot of tops showing (although one of the skunk plants is with some yellows leaves, more than all others!? don't really know
why! lack of N ... maybe!?)
the plants that I supercroped look recovered, but i still can't see noticeable development on side branches, maybe it takes
a bit longer...

also raised EC to 1.5 and one of the NYCD was slightly affected (showed signs of overnute the leaves curled a bit but nothing
serious i think

[thenotorious420]

That's nuts man, super healthy plants!!! If you don't mind me asking how does the polyploid occur?

peacee

 

[GlassFreak]

man you got some trippy ass budds there man! if it were me i would have just acted and seen if the next node after that 3 brancher was a 3 brancher and if no snip the top right above it so you could get 3 tops... but that one wide budd looks sooooooooooo trippy..... wohhhhhhhh.........

the polyploid main bud

wow! theres your mom keeper if you ask me! i will definately be sticking around to check out how that baby turns out for you!!!!!!! pull some clones now just incase you haven't because a closet of those would be sick!!!

out of my 3 nycd i have budding now there is one that developed a double headed cola and is definately the best producer of the bunch. the top cola has filled in a bunch and turned into about a 6 inch wide cola now. i am on day 60 right now and have a bunch of pics you may be able to give you something to look forward to. i am really loving nycd and can't wait to continue growing it. i i have clones so it will be great

crystal production appears to really be increasing at day 60 so hopefully they are in for a big swell until harvest day!

here is a close up view of my fattest cola

 

[homegrwn]

nice shit man keep it up!!

 

[Londoner]

[jonask]

...nice to see you around Londoner!

here it goes week 4 report:

not much to say

let the pict's speak for themselves

EC: 1.7
PH:6.3
TEMP: 25ºC
RH:45-50%

sorry for lousy quality picts (can't upload no more!!)
on the attachments there are some of the same with a little better quality!

the NYCD

and i did it again...supercrop!

the polyploid

the skunk

 

[jonask]

half the way is done!

5 more weeks and i will be harvesting (I hope...)

buds are formed in all tops,
from the NYCD looks like i will have at least 3 different phenos still need to wait a bit longer to be really sure!
and the 2 skunk plants i have look amazing with already so many trichomes visible in the surrounding leafs

this last watering i flushed all the plants with just PH'ed H2O the last feeding was really too strong so it
caused some of my skunk leafs to burn a bit so now I know not to raise the EC higher than 1.5

besides the usual things everything is going smoothly... ahh one more thing today i bought a dehumidifier let's see if
it was a nice investement
(i've been having high humidity at the dark cycle around 75/80% dropping to 45/50% when the light is on, so i mainly
want to use it in the night cycle...
and I think it will be handy for the harvest)

enough words... let's see some picts:

[jonask]

tonight i made the first attempt in making some seeds!

gear used:
• some pollen (that i collected from both my NYCD males)
• bought a very thin brush

just hope I did it right! it would be great to have a stash of seeds of NYCD for my next crop!! :canabis:

I was always curious about 'real' pollen and how the male polen sacks really look like! some pict's under 20x and 400x scope...

damn man! looking awesome and very cool pics of the trichomes and pollen sacks!!! i wouldn't mind having a handful of nycd seeds too. i was hoping for 70 days on my nycd i am growing now but i looks like it will take longer than that. maybe 13-14 weeks total. i think it will be worth the extra wait. i am going to have some more trichome shots coming soon of them too!

here is a few from day 62

 

[jonask]

wow beautiful tric shots! what lens u use!? and since i'm asking! what camera...?
my macro shots was taken with a USB microscope from Celestron and for the pict's I have a nikon D40 but i can't get that level of quality macros (someday i wil buy a macro lens) ...really beautiful close ups

 

[jimmy130380]

thanks! i was using a canon rebel 450d xsi and the lens is the canon mp-e. i was also using a ring flash. it takes some patience and cropping in photoshop to get that sweet spot.

keep up the good work! i will be watching definately
