I read a bunch of stuff about the strain. Apparently it could be a couple of different things. I get terribly sad that there is no easy way to verify genetics. :}

Thanks for the encouragement. I put a 5000 btu AC in the grow room. temps are staying down near 74 in the middle of the day (right now it is around 3pm). Girls are looking good. I will update pics this weekend :}

I think it looks like she's got some God Bud in her... I love your shelf/tent, thats some smart thinking, nice work. Did you get your canopy temps down to 74 or room temp?

Ahhh, OK what are they when it's night outside and the lights are on at the canopy level? By running at night you get cooler lights on but not cool enough when lights off?

If its 90 plus outside the room temps get to mid 80s with lights off during the day. Lights on @ night is fine. with the AC in there it is better.

That shelf thing is gonna be sweet. mothers and clones yep. I dont plan on keeping the mothers too long unless I get a larger tent for my veg area and have the smaller one for flowering.

Your grow is looking really good for having a few issues with the heat. Nice work....Its seems some strains can handle he higher temps better than others...

And for being cursed haha. I came home from visiting my new nephew and found three branches broken off one of my blue dreams and another about to fall off. I got rid of the 3 and twist tied the other. I hope it pushes through. I have had 2 floodings. Countless ducting and heating issues and all. The ladies just hang in there with me lol Like I always say, my goal is at least that they survive me.

I dropped an old school metal oscillating fan on top of one of my kush girls a few weeks ago and it's like it never happened. The one branch I thought was a goner is doing great thanks to some string and a little TLC :) Prop them branches back up and tie some paper towel around the cracked area and leave it be.

Yeah, there was only one branch saveable. I will be getting a larger tent after this grow just so the stuff around my plants aren't close to my plants. Going to get some of those ebb and gro buckets or an aeroponics site and I am going to put them under a plasma light. I feel like that setup will be exactly what I want to have for awhile.

Been flushing the girls gonna take pics after the flush is done. Try to get them under some fluorescent lights for the color. Thanks for the encouragement guys, I will be updating soon.

I am ohk on the temps since I have the window unit in the room. I blocked the light coming in the window and I just leave the entire room closed up. It's also my computer room where I spend most of my day, which makes it nice. The girls are looking so dope. Getting the pics ready for the update. :}

The pics with the pinky in them are the God's Gift. The rest are sporadic.

I added Bloombastic to my nutrient solution as well as Humbolt Honey.

Readings from Reservoir change:

Ph: 5.8
EC: 1.97
PPM: 985

Sooooo everything looks amazingly spot-on without using any pH up or down. I am only dosing with 3/4 on my Canna Aqua Flore A+B. This is my nutrient mix so far:

Canna Aqua Flores A+B
Rhizotonic
Cannazym
Bloombastic
Liquid Koolbloom
SeaCal
SeaMag
Humbolt Honey
Superthrive

Some pics under fluorescence.
