Sad to hear about her demise, she looked really nice and healthy. Was that your only Sour Lemon?Sweetness. I started one back in July but it conked out after transplantshe was looking pretty too. Yea the sour apple pheno is what I'm on the quest for.
Hope u don't mind this.....but this was the sour og right before her untimely death at 12 days....take it easy bro, and ill be watching for that journal
peace
Thanks a bunch Joe! I appreciate the compliments!
Just seen picture of your nugs....delightful!
The first little one I see just looks like it could use an increase in the nutes (lower leaves start yellowing first). My Krush was a nitrogen hog in veg. The bigger one looks like it could possibly have a nutrient lockout problem due to overwatering or too much nutes, or maybe a ph issue. So you're just watering and using the soil for nutrients? If so I'd say either the soil isn't very balanced as far as your npk ratio, the ph is screwy, or you're overwatering, or all of the above. How often do you water? Have you checked the soil's ph or the ph of your runoff? You can see how much nutes are in there by catching your runoff, letting all the solids settle to the bottom and pour some of the water into another glass and check it with an ec or ppm meter. You might have to even strain the water through a coffee filter to get all the floaties out.
Thanks for the info! I'm definetly gonna use a tomato cage. Would you say they doubled or tripled in transition, or less? I'm trying to get mine to 4ft, so I'm trying to figure out how tall to veg them to get to that height.
Cool man, nice one for the heads up about it being nitrogen hog. I water now when the soil is dry on top and the pot feel light, so every couple of days, but i think it all got messy when i used neem oil as a drench, it got rid of the bugs but stuck the soil together and didnt dry out for time, think this was start of my problems.
Thanks! It stretched around 2 1/2 to 3x. Not sure on the weight yet, I'm guessing 3+.
No haven't had any red stems. I like FloraNova and would stay away from the miracle grow. It's just NPK, no micro or macro nutrients in that stuff. Once your plant uses up the nutes in the soil, use a fertilizer that has all the major and secondary nutrients like FloraNova or DynaGrow. Or keep it organic, I've heard good things about Earth Juice, it's organic and completely broken down already so goes directly to the roots and doesn't have to be broken down by the soil first, good even for hydro.
That stuff looks great! What did you end up yielding when it dried? I was curious about the two phenos of the OG. Did they look any different in veg? I have three started, they're 12 days old in a 4 inch pot. Two of them are about about 4" tall and are sprouting they're 7 blade leaves and slowly starting to grow side branches. the third is only 3 inches with tighter node spacing again starting they're 7 blade leaves. but it has much more rapidly growing branches.Final Update
This is my opinion of these strains. All tested through "Da Buddha" vape.
Grapefruit Krush - Very orange kitchen/hand cleaner smell, but super skunky from a distance. Super sweet orange citrus and skunky weed taste. Smiley happy buzz at first then turns around and stones you good with real heavy eyelids. Winner! I'm keeping this one around.

Lemon Diesel
Funky diesel fume and lemon smell. VERY strong taste. Stronger than my Sour Kush (Og Pheno), with a better taste. Where the Sour Kush has the chemy skunky taste, the Lemon Diesel has the chemy, gas fume, spice taste. Also lingers on the tongue a lot longer. Very knockback stoned high without the cloudy daydreamy head. Another winner! I'm replacing my Sour Kush with this one. Better producer, taste, and high.

Lost Cost OG
The pheno I'm keeping (the one in this journal) is very electric lemony hash smelling, with the chemdawg smell coming through slightly but just enough. The taste is like the smell: lemony hash with a nice amount of the chem. The only other OG I've had to compare this to is the OG 18. The Lost Coast gets me just as high or higher, VERY potent. Also, I prefer the more complex taste of the Lost Coast compared to the more one sided chem taste of the 18. A third keeper for me from Emerald Triangle seeds.
Note: I had another pheno of the Lost Coast but it didn't have the zingy lemon smell or taste. Overall earthy, kushy musty smell and taste. It had some chem to it but lost most during drying/curing. Not my cup of tea. It also yielded less, was less potent, and the buds weren't as dense. Glad I did more than one of these, the lemony one is keeper for me.

That's that! Thanks to everyone tuning in. I definitely recommend Emerald Triangle Seeds, my experience has been great. Feel free to chime in on your experience with ET.
Some more nug porn.
This is the Sour Kush that is getting replaced with the Lemon Diesel.

Here are the two Lost Coast OG phenos side by side. Musty kushy one on the left, zesty lemony on the right.

I got 2oz off the first pheno. The good lemony one yielded 3 1/2. Both were topped and tied down and then the secondary branches were also topped. Untopped, don't expect much over an oz. My good pheno was really lush and grew really fast. The other one grew slower, was more sensitive to nutes, and had smaller fan leaves.That stuff looks great! What did you end up yielding when it dried? I was curious about the two phenos of the OG. Did they look any different in veg? I have three started, they're 12 days old in a 4 inch pot.

It could just be from the light. I hope I ended up with good phenos!
let me know if these sound familiar!
Thanks. That shit was annoying.
I'll have to wait until they get a little bigger to know forsure. Thanks for all your help!
All stretched out without the branches hanging all over, it was 24 inches tall from the base of the plant. The Grapefruit was only 17 inches tall. I flowered them kind of small so I could see how much they stretch. This next time around I can grow some big ones, now that I know what they do.
Me too thanks to you! I'm running a 2.5'x5' grow tent with two 400w MH's for veg. Then in flower I'm gonna switch to two 430w Hortilux super HPS+ two 180w Blackstar flowering LED's, and one 240w Blackstar flower LED for supplemental light. The Led's increase trichome production a lot! and hopefully will help with the overall yield. I ran the Led's alone in a SMALL setup with 6 Joint Doctor Easy Ryder (lowryder x AK47) autoflowers and yielded over 8 ounces which isn't bad considering the light and plant combo.
