Looks like some (not a lot) of heat stress, and the start of a pH problem to me. My grow stays at 78-82, wish it was cooler. Perhaps you should pick up a good thermometer to be sure?

I live in South Fla nightime temps are like 10 degrees different IF that miss my socal weather
Well I just left to take some dabs came back to check and it says 79? so fucking erratic I check every hour and worst case scenario I leave the bottom flap open and come close it before lights off 6am

My runoff is about 6.0 gonna start feeding at 6.9-7.0 to get a good runoff FFOF without lime =/ didnt have any cash and have to move in 80 days so I didnt wanna fuck around and wait

Such a nice bloom for day 12... awesome stuff!
Def nice for 12 days. My current LH is 2 1/2 weeks and it's half that size. it was a slow starter last time too though.
Yeah you looking REALLY good for 12 days. :p
Thanks guys! learned a lot on my first grow and I'm having much more success this go-around.

St. Verde I checked out your headband grow and DAMN! that looked amazing. How many OZs was it?

So my lemon cun* is a sativa, it seems to be heat resistant and it's growth form is weird. Sativas are completely new for me and I don't know what to expect.

The things i've noticed so far are;

-Strange growths from the main stem. they look like those thingies that everyone mistakes for pistils only there's no leaf to go with them.

-long and narrow leaf fingers

-11 freaking fingers PER leaf!

-tall with no side branching


Fill me in folks, what should I be expecting and what might surprise me?

dont know the breeder ace, its from socal.starting to notice its potenial in yeild.from the blue dream in it. with the last harvest having 6 nugs weighing over 7g plus all the other smaller nugs.

kalebaiden most sativas tend to do better with some topping, lst.but the long thin fingers def sativa. my willie is landrace viet sativa which tend to not grow so tall and but get very busy from side branching.and some sativas tend to be a lil finky in nutes.

In another stoned moment of brilliance....(sarcasm)...


I walked up to my Lemon Skunk and said your being super cropped right now. I bent down and leaned the main stem over my finger and with a quick snap it was done.

I checked my handiwork and seen it was a good crop. I then looked towards my B-52s....consider if you will for a moment....all I seen was a plant and beside it, the exacto-blade I used to clone Kaya the day before.

I grabbed up the knife and topped the tallest B-52, I had no plans on cloning it but.... it was done. I held the top if my first feminized seed. I looked around and all I had available was an old, nutrient soaked peat puck. I added a few more cuts to the stem where a set of leaved were starting, dipped the stem in rooting hormone and set it up as another clone. Let's see if it survives with some tlc.

I now have 4 plants in the hospital box and some 'altered' ones under the light.

Here's hoping my plant hospital does it's job.

Soil balance is fun stuff, you'll get it eventually.. I'm getting better at it but I'm still not perfect.

Just gotta have an idea of how many salts are in your soil, and water accordingly. Then every 1-2 months run 2-3x as much water through your soil to rinse it out. You will get build up eventually. I use fox farms lineup and that stuff is very acidic, brings my 7.8 tap water down to 5.2 with a strong bloom feed :lol: I have to use like 10-15 mL of pH up to get it correct (6.6-6.8 in flower for me).

I also use 40-50% perlite and 50-60% ffof in my soil mix religiously, it really helps with the build up, lets the roots breathe and it flushes any salt it retains really nice.

More news on the plant front:

The lemon skunk flopped over on the surpercrop and while the bend in still there, the plant is heading back towards the light, I think my crop will work.

The B-52 thats topped has sealed the scar already and looks like it will be a bushy beast.

Kaya clone seems to be responding to the humidity dome and will most likely root and the top of the b-52 is taking to being cloned nicely as well.

Good shit rufus! How tall is she from the soil? I think shorter plants produce the best crops under these 250's
