Ethos "Cookies".......limited edition
- Thread starter SSHZ
- Start date
Week 1 finished in flowering............. an easy grow so far. Plants really haven't stretched too much yet, wondering what the next 1-2 weeks will bring though. Smell has come on a bit, maybe 2/10 so far. The 2 shortest plants I lifted up around 7 inches with bricks to even out the canopy. A bit leafy maybe, reminds me of the Zombie Virus (actually Sweet Zombie by Expert Seeds) I did a few years back. I'll cut the N back a bit to limit leaf growth, but otherwise- onward ho. And I'll begin lollipopping the bottom 1/3 of growth in the next day or two.

A short update for some specifics:
1. I've been in the mid-800's ppm while fertilizing the last 2 waterings. The plants have greened up nicely. I've been giving them Botanicare Pure Blend Pro 3-2-4. Next watering or two I'll switch to P.B.P 2-3-5 til week 6. Then switch to P.B.P. 1-4-5 for weeks 7 and 8, then plain water with molasses the last 2 weeks (assuming I go 70 days total). If you haven't ever tried the molasses addition, try it sometime. People always comment on the "interesting" taste of the buds when I use it.
2. I'll stake each plant once shortly , tying the main stalk to the post. Tallest plants are to the outside of the room, I'll use tall stakes for them and shorter stakes for the rest (because of the lights ).
3. I added 2 teaspoons of Mosquito Bits to the top of the soil in each pot. This kills any fungas gnat larvae for a couple of months and eliminates any chance of a gnat infestation.
4. I switched from Botanicare Cal/Mag to Blue Planet Nutrients CalMag. It's essentially the same thing as Botanicare and 1/3 cheaper. I go back and forth between them, depending on what's available when I buy more. I use a reverse osmosis device for all my water, and it strips everything out of the water- so 10ml per gallon Cal/Mag is necessary to stop a deficiency. No Cal/Mag last 2 weeks.
Back on Tues at the end of 2 weeks flowering.

The one thing I like about THCFarmer is they make it easy to find all your pic's, no matter how old they are:

The strech didn't really take off till week 3 on mine, and the logh is very similar a few are a bit taller
Thanks..........I pinched everyone of them except the 2 shortest a week before flowering so I'm not sure the impact of doing that. Either way I hope they gain another 6-12 inches but at day 16 in flowering, I'm not sure that's going to happen at this point. But very happy they are healthy and doing well.

No I wasn’t and I’m still going to buy some of their strains eventually. I asked because the OP stated it initially.
It's actually hard to take a criminal record like Colin’s out of context, since it's over many years. Before I even bought my first Ethos pack I was warned he was a piece a shit that fucked over many people thru the years. I still bought his beans though........you obviously have some skin in the game, why don't you just be honest and explain your relationship with him??? Why else would all this bother the hell out of you?
To further the conversation, if his past issues were just drug related, they are easily forgiven. But the fact is he's a violent guy with a history of assaults with deadly weapons. But the most egregious conviction is his cruelty to animals, which I can't forgive. That fact speaks volumes about him.
It would seem you are doing a disservice by continuing this conversation. I made one post on the matter, you continue to pop in to berate me about it. That's fine if it makes you feel better. But know one thing- I have more posts and grows using Ethos stuff than anyone on the east coast and I've generally been positive about his stuff. God knows how much I am personally responsible for increasing his sales- I imagine it's a lot. I've moved on regarding his past misdeeds- maybe you should too.

Just my 2 cents, but I'm sure alot of guys in this game have criminal records god knows I do and it's much longer then his it's the nature of the drug game as for the assaults and other violent crimes they go hand in hand with drugs, I know guys that when there not on drugs u would never think they could be the type and would give u the shirt off there back if u needed it but when they go on a run watch out cuz they flip 180. And as we've all gotten older and wiser things and ppl change u look back and say dam wtf was I thinking or why the hell was I doing those things cuz I'd never do them now. Granted I still know a few guys still doing dumb stuff but 4 the most part outta all the ppl in the game I came up with it's a very small percentage. Point being ppl change especially if there off of whatever there poison was, as 4 the cruelty to animals I'm with u sshz but I've seen my brother charged with it for kicking a police dog that was biting the shit out of him and another 1 of my boys they used it for a way into his house even thou it wasn't true. Again point being u never know the real story, I'm not defending Collin I dont know the guy I'm just saying how do u judge some one u don't know off a peice of paper, if that's ur mind set then I guess u either A, have something personal against the the guy, B have nothing better to do, or C have been living a very sheltered life in a bubble
I tend to agree with what your saying BUT I don't look at one thing in particular but after looking at the entire rap sheet, it's relatively easy to surmise he's got serious issues...........and if you go back to some old threads on RIU, you'd find others posting (long before the rap sheet was made available) that he has a long history of issues with many people and is not well liked or liked at all for that matter. When he started Ethos, it was a collective of growers. Now it appears he's more on his own leaving a bunch of people angry in his wake. Lastly, I hate to crap up my grow threads with this kind of shit so lets put it to rest going forward- everyone can do their own research and come up with their own opinions.
