Flowamasta's Grow No.3 indica clone-harvest grow Journal! 1 PLANT!!! 600wattHPS

wow 350 ppm sounds very low, i doubt that is the cause, you got a fan on her yet?? that is a must....

The ppm were at 1100 before the change! Oh and yes I do have a fan on her, it has been there since day one. It is just hard to find a good location and setting that is not too strong or too weak.

1100 Wowsers! You should be ok with 500-600 range if you have some decent roots down below now. 350 is a bit low for that size of plant.

i'm loving that foxtailing -- reminds me of a hashplant pheno i used to work with.

thanx kitty, i'm happy with her progress, i may go 10 days, lol its funny to watch people give you a time frame when to pick it just shows the majority of erbs out there is bound to be all different , no matter if the same strain or such, soo many variables i'm seeing that can change the overall look of the product, a small drying sample that i have looks completely different from my last 2 grows, and twice as frosty, i can clearly see the crystals from a distance, very skunky texture this time round

i can state now, that i am 100% happy with this grow, and i can't believe it's gone soo well considering the warm summer heat.....

you like my foxtails my better half loves them too, and she understands how quickly these have all swollen up, she's often in there checking out our fine beasty girl, smelling her we both can't believe how quickly she has fattened up, and maturing at an incredible rate, the smells are just amazing, soo hard to describe, its such a strong smell, almost a lavender smell !!?? soo unusual, but the resin is just amazing this round, my stickiest yet, just gets everywhere, and they are slimy to touch, and leaves shiny resin all over your fingertips from touching! just ridiculous. what have i done.......?? i thought my first was greasy, but this is insane

i think jin' would have a better opinion sorry mo, i'm trying to help i really am, in my opinion, your plant is more mature than you think, just because she's had a slow start, and taken a long time to get her that big, i believe she could handle a decent feed regime....certain nutrients are high level ppm to start with, i know that when cyco is mixed to full strength it is always over 1000 ppm, but remembering that not all of that is unusable salts, some will break down and turn into food, i just think with the added stress that she has gone under, she is finding it hard to uptake the nutriens, but she is only going up from here, the plant is starting to self sustain, and her leaves will start to show problems earlier. you will know if you've given her too much food, she will perk right up, and the tips will point straight up, find that balance and you will be fine, maybe bring food up to around 600-700, see her reaction, thats not enough to do damage, and will give you an idea, under the light for 3hrs on that ppm will show you results, if you arent seeing results in that time, then up the food...... my opinion, this is different to my hydro, so maybe ask jin, see if he agrees

Guess what I say don't matter much...... however, it was very similar to what Mr. Flowamasta has suggested.

Hey Flow, have a quick question and feel free to laugh at me, but on my Scrog it is getting a bit full and I would like to tie down at least one more time. Think it would hurt anything if I incorperated some pipe cleaners to the plumb line and did a bit of LST above the scrog instead of trying to weave through the line and stems and what not that are just under it. Thanks for the help.

Cheers

Thanks Slanty and Flow! I have been studying Scottyballs Scrog grow and he is getting great results with lower ppm levels and Jin has been using lower levels also. And like you said, I will see if there is a problem pretty quickly and I can up the levels if I need to.

sorry slanty!! i sped through without seeing your post.... your opinion does matter!! look at your gorgeous plants!! man, you're in another class all together my friend

i wish i was growing your purp in my scrogg you have a gift, not just the strain mate

thanx for that Mo have thought about getting seeds, maybe one day i will venture in that direction, and then clone from them, for now, i'll stick with fast cloning, however, love popping seeds and seeing them grow, always a pleasure to watch at their pace...i recently popped 1 seed from a 10yr old bagseed, it turned hermie after 1 month, so i gave it to the chickens, i have had good results in the past growing seeds in my mums backyard in the ol' days and popping them on the shed roof to get full sun, they all flowered out and i had a blast!

When did you start? I was just a kid back in the 70s.

hehe, i started when i was about 15, my father introduced me to lifes green wonder, and i pinched some of his one day, and made myself a pipe out of a hammer handle, and then went and showed my mates, it went from there!

I had a mate that turned me on when I was 13. We laughed our asses off. Two months later I was on Maui smoking the Wowie with my Father. I quit when I had kids but now they are all grown up and I have a perscription. I love to grow these plants, especially with all the various strains to choose from here in CA.

yes, you are very very lucky

I would trade it all to live in OZ!

Canada ain't too bad either, EH!

wooot woot another thumbs up for canada

how would i go applying for residency in canada as a tradesperson?

its not that hard at all , type in canadian work visa for americans in google apply for that then once your here you can apply for citizenship or long term residency

bit of outdoor bud porn for you guys, this is the amster gold clones i got off a mate, good thing i saved them or what!? i havent seen resin like this before. and they are starting to amber out now, but i'm leaving 1 to go longer, 1 early, 1 late, early for mrs, late for me

looks about 7 grams on each roughly, maybe a little more, they are mighty solid!

let me know what you guys think!!!??

Hi Flow - That cola is amazing! Do you grow other plants like vegetables and fruit?
