The runt White Rhino, currently this one has the absolute most bud sites, and colas. 15 individual colas on this fucker alone. Also, pistils a coming in faster than i can count them. atleast a dozen a day.

All in all, it's looking magnificent with CFLs. 312watts.

I'm contemplating putting some of those 24inch long t8 or t12 bulbs for running vertically in the fridge. So that the lower nodes and growth get light too. Just Now starting to run pure nutrient water for the next 4 weeks, then going to flush with clean water for the last 2 weeks.

Yea, i'm pretty sure i know the problem with the yellowing. See, when i planted that WR seed. (didn't germ at all, just stuck in watered soil. Kepts lights on, and in 3-4days i had sprout.. anyway to the point. I used re-used FFOF soil. The soil that the yellow one is in, is the soil from my previous grow. Didn't add anything to it.. just tore the old roots out, and plopped the see in it.

Also, I just returned home from Lowes, and grabbed a bag of the soil you mentioned you used in your grow, along with the last remaining bag of Perlite Lowes had.. LOL! Couldn't find any earthworm casting though.. I got the Jungle - whatever Vegtable & something. Professional. 1cu. ft. I still have 8 regular White Rhino seeds left, PLUS 2 autos i've been saving for after the "thaw". Plan on putting the autos in pots and soil, and have em grown in the sun. Speed devil and fast bud, i believe is what i have.

I do check the pH of my incoming water.. it's rain water that i catch. But even that Ph is around 6.2-6.4.. (I'm told thats perfect for growing... I've tested my tap on SEVERAL occasions, with results way over 6.4,... up at around 7.5-8.0. Bit tooooo high. So tap water is out. Leaving Stored rain water for the win. I check it after it's caught, and right before i feed my babies. If i'm satisfied, i'd water my babies. Thats it in a nutshell, i don't test soil pH because i havn't found a tester, and am too lazy to spend my money on crap. 6-7more weeks to go, and I ought to have some killer looking bud. Thanks for stoppin' by CD! Hope to see ya again

Well, as you know. There is a few strains in that fridge. As far as my nose can tell, my blue mistic isn't that smelly. Same to be said for the White Rhinos. Not sure about dimensions right now, but i can tell you, i'm about running outta room for growth in terms of width.

cool man, that jungle growth is good shit man, im real happy with it. i use that soil right out of the bag. yeah at the end of last year, my rain water was right on at 6.6 but now the new rain i just got is down around high 5's, so i just mix some rain water and some high ph tap water and it comes out perfect with the nutes in at 6.6. i do check my runoff water every now and then but i check all my water that goes in. try a nursery for the worm castings, i got mine on ebay, cheap, like $10 for a pound and a pound of bat shit for flowering.

The only dispute i have atm. Is the droopyness of the BM and one of the WRs. They're the tallest, so they are closer to the lights than the rest of em. Other than that, they look great.
