1st Grow, multiple strains, learning experience!

Things are going very well. I took quite a few pictures today and I will post them as soon as they are done uploading. One of my Tops Blooby is purpling. Very purple buds, can't wait to see how they turn out! Everything is extremely fragrant and very sugary Buds are growing nice and dense and I'm having to use more bamboo every day to hold branches up. The piney scented plants have evolved to a very citrusy scent. Almost like orange cleaner. The mango scent is just getting stronger...makes my mouth water, like eating a Starburst. Can't wait to show you guys some pics! They are filling out very nicely!

So, as of week 4, I am using 10mL/g of Botanicare Kind: Base and 15mL/g of Botanicare Kind: Bloom. I water with nutrients every time. The plants in the ReadyGro Aeration have been watered every two to three days and every three to four days in the Fox Farms Ocean Forest. Temperatures have been in the high 70's to the mid 80's (25 to 29 deg. Celsius) during lights on and about 65 (18 C) during lights off. I wish someone else could share the smells that waft through the room. Smells like a fruit ninja has been there.

The last pic has PURPLE buds finally!!!

First and last pic don't do the purple justice. Shows up really light with the flash.

Sorry, forgot to mention, these are in the middle of week 4!

just read through all of this at work. Looks great man keep it up!

definitely pumped to see your yield after its all done and over with. i'll be watching!

They look amazing bro.Exciting time for the both of us!

These are the Ice King (Permafrost X Ghost OG Kush)...I renamed it, old one wasn't growing on me.

These are the Tops Blooby that turned purple. Smells extremely fruity! The pictures don't do it justice, it really is a cool looking plant.

Here are the two Afgooeys, very hairy with a lemon-lime scent. Smells like Mountain Dew.

This is the AK-47, the tallest of the bunch. I will have to note on it's scent later, can't remember right now. Producing lots of huge buds...a lot that aren't in the photo, as I had to stake six branches up today because they were hanging down. Apparently forgot to get bud pics Will post some later today.

Some of the other Tops Blooby (producing dense buds, but just not up to par with the others and I will be weeding these out of the strain.



This one has given me nothing but problems, very sensitive to lights, water, and nutes. Glad I won't have any of these next grow. Going to try to retain the purple Tops Blooby...loving everything about that plant.



This is an exact copy of the purple Tops Blooby except it is not purple.

Some Final Frontier tops...not sure where my full picture is...

They are coming along nicely, goodjob man. The ak-47 is a skyscraper. What week are they in?

You are very kind! Thank you very much! I have definitely had my speed bumps along the way, but nothing they didn't bounce back from. I never expected I would learn so much from this forum in such a short amount of time. Thanks Rollitup!

I do have some bad news...

My plant that looked like the purple (thankfully NOT the purple one) has turned to a lady-boy I saw something that looked like the tip of a banana yesterday just before the lights went out and rushed out this morning and there were little clusters of three bananas sprouting all over. This was only on the main cola so I cut it off and trimmed it. I hope it is okay to smoke. Wet weight of the cola was 63g after it was all trimmed. I am drying out the trim to get some honey oil and will be sampling the bud here soon enough. I am going to chop the rest of the plant tonight, just putting a good music playlist together before I really get started. I don't know why it hermied on me, it was a very well cared for plant, no light leaks, no burn, no deficiency, nothin'. Any thoughts?

Here are some pics of the bud I cut off...
