i know this is an old post but i only jus read it tonight. the Aussie Thread isnt the same without yas. those exact few u pointed out are the ones that made the thread the 1st 6 months of the year when i first started...(if u look at my join date, i had to change from my original account)Mmm, that has been the general consensus for a while now. No more Jats, Kmoo, You, Lacey, 8E, Streets.. & Rocksteady is scarce now too. Shame, cos we had a good thing going there for a while..
You'll be fine, when it dries out. The really nice aromas will come after being cured in a jar for about a week.So hey,,First off CONGRATS on the epic grow Ninja!.Im pulling mine on friday(nothing as good as yours though ).And I just wondered,,,when you cut yours,did you get an overwhelming grass smell from it? is this normal?.Because I chopped a cola yesterday,lightly trimmed hte thing and hung to dry.My fingers where sticky and smelly(in a good smell way ).yet when I smell the bud,it smells like fresh cut grass,and no real bud smell to it.Is this normal?.when it drys and cures will the smell come?.This is my first grow,so im just a little concerned lol.
Sorry Man, I don't grow SOG so my knowledge on it is somewhat limited, I do however know that if you trim those bottom branches off in the 1st stage of Flower than ur main cola will benefit alot more. In terms of removing the top cola and letting the rest of the plant survive, it will survive, it is essentially the same as topping it. My mate grows big trees and always staggers his harvest over a week or so, removing the tops and letting the rest ripen up a bit more evenly while he has his hands full trimming that.o.k bud,I guess im just loking for some reassurance lol.The only reason I have chopped this cola early is so I can do some drying/curing practice as I dont want to F,Up on the last hurdle .
Also I have 1 more question if I may?.
I have been experimenting with my first grow,I have done 1 scrogged BC,1 LST'D RCB, and a mixture of the 2 in a mini style SOG(9 plants in total)All is relativly well but,,,,,I just wondered...
on my SOG'd plants,they have a nice cola and the buds directly underneath the cola all look well,but there are little underdeveloped buds under those.If I chopped the cola and the developed buds,could I sit the remainder of the plant back under the HPS for another week or so?.Or will the plant just die with its cola missing?.
Thanks in advance.
Hi HookedOn. I received the strain as a Clone & was told it was a BlueBerry Father x with the Original Exodus. Sounds far fetched I know, but if there was any1 I knew that could indeed have access to such genetics and be able to bring em down to my island it would definately be the guy who gave it to me..was it big buddha blue cheese that u grew? thanks ninja

O.K Ninja,Thanks for that info.
I have had 2 of the plants headless(lol) for about a week now,and the lower buds seem to have filled up a bit,but in future if I do SOG I think the lower ones will be cut off,to make way for a bigger cola.I chopped my BC single pant scrog 3 days back,And im sure there wil be a couple of dry Oz off that when done.Which will be about same as the 9 plant mini SOG method I had going on. I also got a RCB in LST which is looking promising for the back end of the week.Anyhow,,Im waffling on now but I feel the need to tell you this as it was your journal and eights journal that got my grow room looking so fricking messed up lol.I was dead set on LST before I started reading the journals.But I suppose I gotta thank you for inspiring me to experiment with the different methods which I learned LOADS from.Anyhow,,waffling again lol.This grows not even finished ,but Im already planning my next, SLH LST'd to within a inch of its life,I got a 3x3x7 space especially set up just for that 1 plant lol.
anyhow,,,Peace out and again
THANKS.
(going to check on your mothers now )
Good stuff brother. I saw ur Exodus chugging along. She was a very very deep green. A tricky plant to master indeed. Too little Nitrogen (which is very easy 2 do with her) she yellows.. (Too much she goes deep green & again easy 2 do).. But get her just right & she'll explode.hey cheesey stranger, whats up? got a bit of a cheesey carpet on the go myself at the mo....also a relative of the good old exodus cheese.
Sorry I couldn't get back 2 u sooner, I have been all over the place lately..Im waffling on now but I feel the need to tell you this as it was your journal and eights journal that got my grow room looking so fricking messed up lol.I was dead set on LST before I started reading the journals.But I suppose I gotta thank you for inspiring me to experiment with the different methods which I learned LOADS from.Anyhow,,waffling again lol.This grows not even finished ,but Im already planning my next, SLH LST'd to within a inch of its life,I got a 3x3x7 space especially set up just for that 1 plant lol.
