Hey Surf- back from vacation, had a great time! Came back and the plants are so much bigger! Bad news on the Pure though, her fans leaves are lookin pretty rough- lots of rust colored patches and curled, dryed up tips... the buds themselves look great but the fan leaves are killin me!! I will post some pics soon.
I will look into Attitudes special- thanks for the heads up!

I was thinkin maybe the Pure was Nute sensitive like maybe I am giving her too much? She has her own special water with Half strength everything- the Bagseeds use another with full strength everything and their leaves look fine... Do you think I should give the Pure more like the Bagseeds?

well im thinking more along the lines of cal/mag, chelated iron, copper, that kind of stuff.
i was feeding the a/b and the pure identically, and i noticed rust and premature yellowing on the pure long before the a/b. course i didnt have any cal/mag so i just said the hell with it and let them go towards the end. the smoke was still excellent, tho, just not as much yield as could have been.
i was very, very happy with the bud structure/texture after curing. as close to perfect in my book as it gets... still fluffy, but not the type of fluff that compacts when you go to roll one up.
there is also a new product (to me anyways) called liquid sunshine, that is supposed to be like steriods for strains like the pure (strong IBL's with good stable genetics)
supposdly increases the plants flowering energy potential from its natural 30% to 60% or higher.... doesnt mean it will double your yields, dont read the numbers like that... more like 30% heavier, stickier, prettier buds than if you didnt use it.
ps-
see when i ran it, i was thinking it was more sensitive to def's than to over nuting. i burned once or twice, but nothing a quick flush didnt catch with a quickness. now i went out of town for a week and had the gf water them for me, with just straight water because i didnt trust her to mix the nutes right, and that being underfed, did more damage than anything else i could throw at them, and i abused em with MG products lol....

Quick Update with pics- Day 52 of Flower/ Day 92 Total-
Cam back from vacation and this time the plants are alive :toke: but the fan leaves on the Pure are hella fucked
- apparently this is common for her strain.
PICS!
The closet- 2 Bagseeds on the left, the Pure on the Right
Side Bud on the Pure- see the spots...
An entire branch of side bud on the Pure
The PURE COLA
The Pure Cola TOP
Frosty Nugs, bottom of the main cola
Frosty side bud, the pure
OK, here is a picture of the Bagseed cola- so weird, her pistils/hairs are Suuuuper Loooong- they stretch out like crazy, the Pure never did it like this
Anyone have any suggestions on how to prevent further spotting on the Pure?? I water with Epsom salt water only every other watering to give her just Cal/Mag- then on the Nute days she gets a combo of Sugar Daddy, Flowering Nute at half the suggested strength, and FF Grow Big (contains macronutes).
The Bagseeds Nute water is a full strength version and their leaves are fine...

Thanks and welcome aboard! She should be done soon so you will get to see the final yield!

Yeah man- they look sooo far behind the Pure I am thinking they will need even longer... there are just a very few orange pistils, most are white... which is crazy because the Pure is a sativa and I am thinking she should be done around 70 days of flower or so; but the Bagseeds might be like 90-100 of flower! WTF!?

Thanks Krozone- I am very happy with my girls and the LED so far!

The LED is about 16-18 inches above the plants- there are a couple CFLs on the side also, they are about 4 inches from the plants.
The plants do have some stretch but I don't think anything that's abnormally long between nodes.
The main cola of the Pure is filling in nicely

I have a 420 scope and if you guys have one then you know it's kinda hard to use. You have to get close enough, hold still, focus in, blah blah- I found it difficult to use.
Anyways, I went searching for a jeweler's loup type of magnification device and I found one at Fry's!
Decided to take pics with it to get even closer.
Here are the results.
