Master Kush

[nongreenthumb]

What make of bulb do you buy, I think i could get you one for about 15 quid new.

 

[skunkushybrid]

I can't remember. Superlux or something, i think. I can get them cheaper too but I don't drive and the shop is further away. It would amount to about the same in taxi fare. Plus I want it tomorrow.

I've made up the week 3 feed for the flowering Kush. Into 9litres of water...

Sensi Bloom A, 25ml
Sensi Bloom B, 25ml
Sensizym, 30ml
Carboload, 10ml
Big Bud, 30ml
Barricade, a drop (about 1ml)
Superthrive, 2 drops (about 2ml)

I've also made up the first veg' feed for the bubbling kush mom. The space queen will be sharing this feed alongside some kush clones that I might as well do something with. This into 9litres of water.

Sensi Grow A, 15ml
Sensi Grow B, 15ml
Voodoo Juice, 15ml
Sensizym, 15ml
Carboload, 5ml (beginning of veg' cycle)
Barricade, a drop (about 1ml)
Superthrive, a drop (about 1ml)

Fuck, fuck and double fuck. My number 1's a hermie. I'm not a 100% yet, but I'm around 90% sure. I was the same when I noted that numbers 2, 4 and 5 were all going to be male. I went through a period of denial. My 3 best plants could not possibly be male. I've entered a similar stage again. If number 1 is a hermie that means the bubbling mom has been a waste of time. I'll have to take her down.

I want to keep the hermie, thinking about flowering it in the garden (hidden of course) just to get the seed. At least that way I retain a load of feminised master kush seed. It's worth the hassle.

Like I said, the male preflowers could easily turn into fem's, so I'm not a 100% yet. What I am, is left feeling a little let down after all my hard work. Hopefully there will be some pay off when I collect the seed.

I certainly picked a right bunch of seeds. Out of the 10 I couldn't have picked worse. 3 males, one hermie, and one freak of a female. I've gotten rid of the number 1 clones, and replaced them with number 3, even the one in the bubbler.

I'll just have to continue with the female I've got.

I'm sorry to hear about the hermie man. Now you got me worried about my kush, I will be examining my ladies very closely as i just started flowering.

That's a good idea, although it's always a good idea to keep a close eye on them, all it takes is one male branch and you've seeded your crop. On mine it's just one male preflower (as opposed to a bunch of) on each of two branches. I pulled one of them off yesterday, out of frustration. So now there's just one but it's ripening up nicely. I've just added the feed, so I'm going to let that settle before I start moving shit around.

Hey SkH, my girl is finishing wk6, she's been on 10/14 sch. for 3wks... She's glistening, and very big buds...(biobizz) Anyway she's about 30/70 on the hairs, but most of her leaves are turning yellow, lots of them... I am using biobizz Grow/bloom/topmax... So, she's getting nitro, I'm letting her go to 55-57 days, right now its day 41... But I think next week, she'll be just about out of leaves.. What to do, what to do...

Thats nirvana genetics for you though, I once got some of their blue mystic, i only actually got one female that didnt turn hermie rest were either male or hermy, they were the last nirvana seeds i got.

Sorry to hear about your bad experience with Nirvana. I have averaged 8.5 females per 10 seeds from them over my last 2 grows.Currently my MK from them is doing fine, 8/8 females and no hermie action. I wonder if sometimes they ship old or bad seeds ? Also I am a believer in keeping the sprouts on 15.5 hours of light a day for the first 2 weeks or so.Seems to help the % of females.

Keep up the good work SKH, do your best with what you have.

Cheers mate. will do. Although with the loss of number 1 plant I will most likely outgrow the strain very quickly. Seeds were free anyway. Same as my la confidential and the chronic, all free. Paid for the space queen though.

 

[skunkushybrid]

I've added the new bulb, and wow what a difference. It even makes my other bulb look dim and that's only 6 months old.

I've left the hermie where it is, for one thing I'm still not 100% it is a hermie. these master kush display unusual growth patterns (except the two males), and this has me thinking. Even if it is a hermie, it's staying where it is. I don't mind at all if this crop gets seeded, in fact I think I'll quite enjoy it.

Mine started getting trichomes after 14 days flower. This is very fast from seed.

 

[skunkushybrid]

Well a couple of them are popping off their shell casings now, so i suppose it's now:

DAY ONE OF VEG.

I'm enjoying this strain already. I only started germinating them on the 15th. In three days they've germinated and are breaking through the soil, and losing their seed casings.

Hmmmm. I'm just hoping that things aren't going too well.

I had to reqoute this post. Just that last sentence really. LOL, how right I was...

 

[skunkushybrid]

Here's some update pic's. Number 3 plant on the left is at 4 weeks flower, and number 1 on the right is on 3 weeks flower.

With the new bulb I'm expecting these two to burst into life. The number 3 plant looks quite poor in terms of bud, I've done better with plants at 2 weeks, let alone 4. At 4 weeks I like to see a decent cola.

Anyway, here's a pic of the flowerers. The bubbling mom seems to be taking nicely and there is a sign of some upward growth.

 

[AEROPONIC3]

U R KILLING THEM OUT THERE! NICE WORK. You should get the Best Grower of the year award!

 

[skunkushybrid]

Thanks aero', I'll write to the newspapers and you print up the t-shirts. lol.

On a more meaningful note, I've again added to my nute regimen in the form of Grandma Enggy's Golden Honey F1 formula. Which I believe is also known as fulvic acid. I was going to buy humic acid too, but the guy in the hydro store said that it isn't very good in hydro. So, I've just stuck with the fulvic.

Number 1 kush plant needs another drink and she's had ll the nutes she needs for this week so I'm going to give her a plain water feed with some of this.

 

[skunkushybrid]

Here's some update pic's of the newly arranged flowering area. 1st pic' is of the kush mom to be. 2nd pic' is of the 2 kush plants. 3rd pic is the flowering area as a whole along with the chronic x white russian and the bubbling ex la mom that have just gone into flower today.

 

[skunkushybrid]

Well it's gone from 99% to 100% to 110% sure number 1 is a hermie. I'm over the moon.

Number 1 will have feminised seed. I have a feeling that my no veg' la conf' clones may have caught too.
