Alright gang, here's a little update, with a little more visibility. Was going to water the girls this morning, but they are, for the most part, still wet from their last watering... I think tomorrow will be the day (oh, except the C4X CB... gave her a little water with worm poop on top to help her N def).

Monday marks 5 weeks (4 weeks SCROG).

Little overall shot


Although she doesn't look overly impressive, this little one has impressed me. All the Cheese have, actually. I was really worried I wouldn't be getting very much off of these girls, but I think I'll be ok... each plant is shaped like a plate, bowling up around the sides, and a little lower in the center. This is allowing for lots of light penetration. Plants like penetration.


Next up is our ol friend, C4 x Caseyband. Loving the bud structure on this structure on this plant. HUGE :mrgreen: This pic was taken pre yellow leaf removal, so please don't judge lol ;)


Here's a close up of the C4 x Caseyband....


Next up, Blueberry x Grapefruit aka Sweet Tooth. I friggin love this plant! Her buds are awesome... nice big calyxes, with insane structure. Now her colors are starting to show, too! Great hues :weed: I topped her once, and then tied open her branches a little bit, and she's done the rest. A tent of these things would insanity.



:peace:
Things are looking awesome mate for week 5, keep up the good work. sub'd

Thanks UK! wanted to do an update yesterday but got caught up. I've gotta get in there and pluck some nanners off my sweet tooth, which started to show a weeee bit of herm yesterday :( she is almost ready to harvest.... We will see if she makes it. I've got a lot of cloudy trichs, but would love some ambers, too. Stay tuned brova ;)

Thanks Aev brotha! I'm running the General Organics line w/ Roots soil and I added some worm castings a few days ago on top. I must say, I'm still figuring everything out in terms of feeding ie how much, how often, etc. My Cheese is a serious Cal/Mg hog, however I feel like it's more under control this round. I wanna switch up soils, too. . . :peace:

You usin dechlorinated water right? Sounds goood. i got the GO lineup too, havent used it yet. what you think of it?

Therein lies the problem, my friend. Where I live, the water is treated with a chlorine that won't evaporate. I asked the guys at the hydro store about it, and they said that short of filtering it, which I don't have, I just have to live with it. They claimed it wasn't the end of the world, tho, and that my nutes'd still work. I'm sure this has been working against me the whole time, tho. Thoughts?

Aside from that, I like the GO line. I don't feel like I can say I've really used it properly, given my water situation, tho. This round and last I've been supplementing with BlackStrap, and really noticed a difference in bud density and yield. Oh, and I also use Budswell. That stuff is awesome!

Interesting, Ive never tried organics without first dechlorinating the water. I dont really know if it is necessary but supposably it kills off beneficial bacterias/fungus etc. As you probably know you need these microbes to convert the organic food to chemicals the plant can use...not sure how else it gets done without those guys. ...

Yes, you are probably right. I've heard the same thing. This is going to be my last grow for a little while, unfortunately :( Otherwise my next investment was going to be a filtration system. Trust me when I say chlorinated water and it's use in "organics" is something that's been getting mulled over in my head for quite some time.

But your grow is looking damn good man. Can you put a lighter next to those buds for scale? *when they are finished that is... that has to say something about chlorine and organics.

Aw, thanks man :) I put a lot of love into these girls. They've paid me back ten fold!

5.5 Weeks Flower pr0n update. . .

First and foremost, HC's C4 x Caseyband. Loving the bud formation on these... foxtails galore. I Bobo likes :weed: Can't see too much purple on these, but it's there.





And a closeup. . .


Next, Cheese. You've seen enough of these, so I'll spare ya lol. This one looks nice tho, so she's made the update


And lastly, Blueberry x Grapefruit aka Sweet Tooth. This one has some nuts colors. I'm thinking about chopping her maybe mid next week. . . or Monday. Depending on how impatient I am!


A little closer...


And one last angle just for fun . . .

Bobo - this is your "mother hen" talking - - DO NOT get impatient with that blueberry - go look at HC's pics again and remind yourself of what you will be missing because you are in a hurry! Knock it off already! 8-) .... but - your girls look beautiful and healthy, so keep up the good work.

Thanks man :) C4 x really smells like the Cotton Candy mom.... probably my favorite smell in the tent right now!

heh heh I'm going to be good, don't you worry! This cross can be a 6 weeker, and I've got quite a few cloudy trichs. Thing is, I'd like some Amber ones lol. I guess the Grapefruit it was crossed with is a faster finisher? She was starting to herm just a weeeeee bit, but I plucked 'em all off, so I'm in for the long haul ;) Thanks mama hen!

How's the back these days buddy. I've had kind of a pain in the neck the last few days that I can't get rid of. And she is upstairs sleeping right now.

I know you have to finish this grow up and get your move on but are you going to be able to let cotton candy girl go 3 more weeks. I'll bet the resin is piling up lol. I have a couple of C-4s at 5 weeks and a couple of Caseybands at 6.5 weeks.....I should post a pic ot the two of them and you can compare for similarities :)

Having a little smokie of the dog right now. In a little while I'm going to go snag my son at school and grab a pizza. He's a couple of towns away but it's quality time for us....he's pretty busy these days. Thinking the Cracken will be gone to work by the time I get back. 1am last night she's in her hot bosses hot tub (her boss and scandie baby are the two hottest chicks in this town). Her boss is a player but my chick is not. She likes to think she is but she may talk the talk she don't walk the walk. I need someone who does. Whoops here she comes now.

Hey hey bru! Thanks for the swing by. I know, HC and his strains just beefed up my garden. Lucky Brobo! This week is almost to an end. It's been a crazy one.

Drools...... slurp......

Hey thanks Colo! Can we call it Cotton Candy mouth? :lol: lol I'm making bad jokes and I haven't even had my coffee yet. It must be Friday.

Hey HC :) I'll have plenty of time to let these girls ride. I'm in no rush... was just freaking over the Blueberry x Grapefruit because she was starting to herm on me. Just plucked the pre nanners off, and she's good to go until finish time. No pollen that I could see.

And dude, if think for a second that I would ever cut anything you've created down early... well, not gunna happen! That C4 is looking beastly... like she's gonna start throwing on some weight here pretty soon... hell, she already is! I can't wait to smoke her... every time I'm in the tent I have to rub her leaves for a sniff. Good stuff.

Have a great lunch with your son! Hope that neck pain gets better ;) ;)
