So these things have been flowering for a month and a half and this is as big as they are? Your setup looks pretty good (other than the clear pots) so I'd look into the other variables.

Woodsman, you have a pretty unique situation going. For the rest of us that dont have real 'Alaskan gold' and mountain creek water, supplemental nutrients are just another part of growing.

And IMHO Roots Organics soil sucks balls. Worst mistake I ever made was trying that for one cycle instead of the usual FF. IMO FF Happy Frog is the bomb.

Three of the them have been in since the second week of October. All of them have been stunted do to nute and heat issues from my previous cabinet. Basically I just wanted to keep the mothers alive and cut a few clones to see how much they stretch while I was building my current cab. My newest clones are going in at 4-5 inches and should be taller at the end of flowering.

So what was the deal with Roots? My only Hydro shop nearby carries it but not FF.....weird huh?

Thanks fro your input d.c. beard.

I got to thinking about your grow just before I went to sleep last night and thought I should share with you a bit more information. Not to persuade you away from what your doing, "I think your doing very well", but to give you some more ideas that could possibly help you in the future. Name of the game here right?!~

This link is Subcools (TGA seeds breeder) super soil. It surely made wheels turn in my head. Hope it does the same for you.

P.S. I make my own soil with fish meal, guano, kelp, and nitrogen rich river delta mud that is all harvested by my wife and I. I dont use "ferts"
... Dont need them. Gotta luv it when an A+ breeder shows you that he does the same with retail products.:blsmoke:
Thanks Woodsman, I thought about using Subcools Super Soil Mix and a few others that I have come across but I am undecided at this point. I wish I had the amenities that you do, all I have is brackish swamp water, some pigeon shit and some toxic beached mullet.

Here is what I think I may use due to availability: 10% chicken manure, 30% mushroom compost, 30% perlite, 20% worm castings and 10% bone meal, blood meal, dolomite lime & rock phosphate

Obviously this is a rough estimate but what do you think?

24 estimated days to harvest and they have swollen up a bit more. Pulled one and prematurely harvested it because it had some questionable white spots and also because I am impatient. Waiting until next week to burn it.

I added 3~2700K CFL's also.

Patients = dank cured weed. :) How the hell do you tell the haze pheno from the sativa? I have 2 phenos with skinny leaves one of them moreso than the other and the indica pheno with the wide leaves. Im impatient too but Im starting to realize the jar cure is worth the wait.

This is something I saved from someones smoke report. Credit to the OP whoever you are.

"There is an Indica or Skunk dominant phenotype which will be shorter and stalker. This phenotype will produce dense buds, flowering will be faster than the Sativa dominant plants but you'll veg them a bit longer since they don't get tall during flowering like the Sativa phenos will. This pheno will have a strong Indica effect along with the Sativa high.

The other three phenos are Sativa dominant, and get much taller during flowering and take longer to finish but you'll veg for a shorter period to avoid them getting too tall. The main difference between these 3 phenotypes is in bud structure. You can get the typical running buds of Haze or the solid Indica bud clusters that take up most of the space on the plants. On the two taller of the three Sativa dominant phenotypes, you'll notice the buds are denser and more angular, almost like like little pine trees."


If this is correct then mine appears to be more haze dominant. If i knew how to do cartwheels I would.

How sick would it be if you had 3 of the 4 phenotypes? Would you do cartwheels?

Thanks man.+rep. I'll put pics of my 3 different females up. I have one more that is about to show preflowers but still cant tell sex. I know for sure one of them is the indica pheno. The leaves are way too wide to be anything but. The unsexed one has some pretty skinny leaves too.
