Second grow, White Widow X Big Bud Feminized. Hope you enjoy :D!

[Ocho2]

Yeah I have read about wwxbb having a herm issue .

I think the issue is mainly caused when the plants are in a stressful environment, because that's what others have told the individuals that had the issue.

 

[Ocho2]

sounds like an interesting strain, subbed.

Awesome thanks for joining us crazy. +Rep to you, and an update is on the way :3.

Thanks again :3

Every time Ive checked the girls before, I found more leaves that were hurt by the nutrient lockout.

Today, I am pleases to say..and relieved as hell..that the girls are no longer showing affected leaves, and I fed them only once earlier. I just fed them again, and I already see a big change .

In the end, the help from ALL OF YOU, and luckily getting the PH kit, has saved the girls from worse problems down the road. I lost two night's of sleep over it, but now I am officially at 100% relief. Thank you, every one of you, to helping me and giving me advice <3. It means a lot.

Here are photos of all of their tops, along with others. The bad leaves look horrible, but I know everything will be promising and positive from here on out.

In an hour the girls will be going into their 25th day of darkness, and all of these are from after 24 days of darkness.

Welcome to everyone newly subbed. I haven't made an update the past few days only because of my PH issue. Without the help of you all, my girls would have most likely starved to death.

Thanks everyone!!! We're back on track

Here are more of the girls :3!

The one photo that wouldn't fit. Damn apps need to work just like the website!

Thanks all.

+Rep to Cata, Mike, Crazy, style, and brother :3. Everyone else, trust me I tried xD.

 

[Ocho2]

I experimented more today.

The Mrs. brought home water, and the first solution I created was perfect!

When watered, the girls coco PH level measures in at 5.9-6.0 on the dot.

I proceeded to make three more gallons up, and I am set for maybe a week ish on water. But now they will heal, and not be sick anymore .

Thanks everyone:3

-Ocho2

 

[Ocho2]

So when I water, and shortly after I test it and get 5.9-6.0, is it normal hours later to get pH readings in the 6.2-6.3 ph range?

I took Ph tests on the pots just now, and they read 6.2 to 6.3. But earlier when watered they read lower. Maybe due to the fact the plants drink up what I just gave them, at a proper reading, but shortly after the coco adjusts back to its normal pH of 6.5?

-Ocho2

 

[Ocho2]

Or would it just be smart to lower the pH on the water more, so they don't lock out at all?

always glad to broaden my horizons on new genetics really
im quite the big bud enthusiast myself to be honest. and the whole herm thing, all fems have the potential to herm really since a hermaphrodite is in its gene pool, most strains have a hermie in their lineage but its highly unlikely to get a herm with most(correct me if im wrong, but i think its less than a 2% chance to hermaphrodite, all depends the method they used to herm one of the females). but environmental stress takes much part in the decision for the plant to herm, you must remember that it hermaphrodites to continue the life of its species, the end goal is always survival.

Fucking amazing choice of strains man, and should be amazing tasting stuff.. +rep and subbed.

 

[shadyslater]

lookin good ocho and its good ta see ur babies are better now dude... im bout 16 days behind you with mine i've a ww x bb same as you and a eva seeds monster (my problem plant lol) she dont like being watered lol..

keep them happies man
cheers

Well thank you Tug, and welcome :3. I have so many seeds/strains, and the lineup for the next grow is going to be intense.

Next grow will be :
1 Bubblegummer (Female seeds)
1 Pure AK (Female seeds)
1 Sensi Star (Paradise Seeds)
1 Exodus Kush (DNA Genetics)

..but thats still a bit over a month away. I plan on germing again and restarting right when the current girls are chopped :3.

+Rep, and good to have you here :3.

Thanks shady :3. I notice a slight change, but I know a few more days of PH adjusting will be needed. I read more and discovered I needed a few more drips of PH down in the water. Its best for a 5.5-5.6 range so as it adjusts up it still will eat all that it needs. If higher than that, while in coco/hydro, calcium gets locked out in bloom so I need to be cautious.

The girls took a beating but i guess in the end its good. I knew absolutely NOTHING about the whole PH factor until yesterday XD.

Hows the wwxbb you have? And the monster doesn't like water? I have a monster seed from the promo a couple months back from Attitude.

The photos I posted are day 24, so you are in the 8th flower day range? Trust me, as long as you nurture them..you will easily have what I have in my closet.

They are on day 25 now, and I am guessing day 56-60 range will he chop time.

Thanks slater ^_^

Very true. And a good thing survival is in the species. Without that factor, the government would have probably eradicated the species xD.

I haven't seen any herm signs, and there's a good chance it won't occur, but it's good to always know whats possible and what can happen.

If I wouldn't have learned about PH 24 hours ago, they probably wouldn't have made it to the end.

I totally plan to continue doing this for the rest of my life. College and law enforcement are fun and all, but I have a just as strong love for this as my education..if not more as its better than text books xD.

Thanks Crazy :3

right? and without us loyal growers, who knows what would happen to genetics. and i feel you on that one, i wanna do this for the rest of my life as well, something feels right about taking care of plants. i mean, who knows how polluted our earth is gonna be in a few years, best thing you can do is surround yourself with things that feed off carbon dioxide. and always glad to help, you can bet ill be following this thread.

Whats better than your own supply of oxygen? Nothing xD. Its great to have you along for the ride. I have quite the list of strains lined up for id say 3 years xD.

Any strain recommendations? The moment I harvest, though I have seeds, I plan to make another pricey order.

Thanks again :3

The girls are awake from their 25th day of darkness.

I adjusted my solutions more earlier, just gave them all a thorough watering to help aid them jn recovery.

I am more relieved than earlier. The girls all measure in at 5.7 ph level. Now the lockout should stop.

Thanks everyone very much :3

[Ocho2]

Every time I look at them I can't help but snap photos xD.

The trichs are everywhere already. Even the fan leaves are covered .

Nothing like being put at ease with proper PH readings. Now I can sleep peacefully :3.

*Hits blunt* night everyone :3.

haha exactly my point man. and anything from the bean co on rcmcollective.ca, i highly suggest herijuana or any heri crosses, red heri fruit bud IBL, c99 x heri, or heri beri. sanniesshop.com(all his beans are like 3-5 bucks each, so you can save yourself a few bucks ) also has mortabel's original herijuana, i grew this one and i cant say ive gotten anything comparable potency wise. sannies has plenty of reputable strains to be honest, one of the best, most honest breeders out there. he'll post the parents of all his crosses usually, so you know what your getting. just about anything he has is bound to be potent, his cheeseberry strains and NYCD are pretty popular too. selene and kolossus would be a good choice if your looking for a high yielder, with the right care just about anything he has can come out just as potent as the last really(besides heri of course, that strain is really somethin else).
but really it all depends what you like really, im an indica guy myself. if you like yourself a long flowering sativa, check out his killing fields, its said to be the highest yielding plant on there, well worth the extra week of flower too. i saw a guy on opengrow who got over a gram per watt, so expect good results.
