hey puff! cindy's looking really nice. how's the smell going? i agree with not using bloom nutes. every time i use it my plants look great, green green. a few days after bloom nutes are added the leaf yellowing begins. after that, i can never get the plants to look that good again. i've heard Uncle Ben say that, also. finally got a couple of cindys going. 34 and 21 days. i took your advice and got some CalMag. i'll be checking in.

Hey kite that's awesome dude, I was searchin everywhere looking for fs blue cheese and couldn't find it.. your privileged. Yeah those sats look good, Malawi looks real exciting.

jasper, Yeah I heard its that way too, hopefully it is and my plants will look ready earlier than expected, all I know this plant is about 10 days behind the last 1 I did in terms of buds development. Actually this plant is weird, it is flowering from the bottom up!

Po, Have to agree on the bloom food thing. Always makes my leaves look shitty, The smell is strong and dank unfortunately. I grow in a closet with no extraction or carbon filter and it's making my bedroom smell dank, during it's light period with the fan on , when the fan and light goes off at night it stops smelling. The smell isn't escaping the bedroom yet I don't think. Put it this was if I had 2 or 3 plants of this growing with an extraction with no carbon, my entire house would reek. For now though, 1 plant with no extraction or filter is just making my bedroom smell, which isn't too bad, I have grew strains that could be smelt downstairs at this stage before.

I think I got to the bottom of the yellowing leaves, I have been going feed feed water. She always look worse after water and far better after 2 feeds in a row, I think she's just hungry.

Its funny you should say that Puff, mine is doing the same. I actually fed mine 7 times straight, getting stronger each time and she is now taking full strength nutes all bar one day a week where she gets water...she still looks like she could take more too! Very odd!

which should i grow Nl #1 type or c99..i want yield,best high and taste in that order..anyone do nl before??

How's your Cindy doing puff? Mine is still stretching, she's getting too big now.

Well unfortunately it's been abandoned. I have gotten some sort of freak phenotype. 5 weeks + and still no buds. So I chucked her yesterday. It was weird from the start in that it stunk really badly of dank/ skunk. That is not a c99 typicality at all. So it was weir from the start, then it started throwing it's hairs from the bottem to the top. Also weird . But worst of all it never made any steps towards proper budding. Just hairs everywhere but no buds at 5 + weeks. So for c99 this is not normal so have given up. Maybe it was the chilli food... but maybe it was just a phenotype thing.. idk.. i'l just go back to biobizz for future.

And speaking of the future I am so pissed off that I have no smoke still ,I am determined to have some Christmas/new years smoke, so I am giving a new strain a try. Eva seeds - Jamaican dream. flowers in 45 days apparently. Sounds good to me. I know c99 flowers quick but I'm mad at her for now /

heres a shot of the Jamaican dream.. lovely looking leaves on it..

That sucks man, Maybe she was getting too much nitrogen from the chilli food.
I was looking at the Jamaican dream too, but I if I remember right, it makes up for the short flower time with a longer time to show sex.
Good luck man!

Oh Puff no good to hear man, was looking forward to seeing her in flower! Mine is still as slow as hell hey, hasnt even reached the edge of the pot yet. Got a feeling she may have a long flower period as well!

that sucks puff! when u first mentioned the dank smell i was disappointed to read that. your first cindy grow convinced me to try it. goof luck with the Jamaican dream and is it sativa? sure is a short flowering time. i'm curious to hear what the aroma is like. keep us posted.

It looks so good, im growing it too right now, ive got 2 different phenos, and that one my friend is the georgeous Pineapple pheno, I just loved the way it came in from day 1 it was my best seed, and then as the leaves really came in and they were so so sativa, it is one beautiful momma

Ok I know what the problem was, ... LIGHT LEAK . I didn't tape up the cracks of my closet as securely as before, didn't think it was an issue. Got inside it the other day just on a whim to see if there was a light leak and yes , quite a lot of light coming in : ( . what a shame.

I was just reading through your grow and you kept talking about cindy stinking so much, so i was like he must not be growing cindy.. or got some kind of phenotype. Also I chopped a Cindy at fifty something days and it was not very potent smoke, i found waiting around 70 - 80 days was not only more potent but them buds swelled almost double. I have a cindy now going on 81 days, about to chop in another day or two.
