that purpley one looks tasty mate!
thats just the camera work, pics up colours different depending on light conditions, but if you're refering to the first couple of pics, yeah, they are the water cured nugs, really dark brown, i guess it has a purple tinge to it!

Thats whats up there looking good keep up the good work bro. That Fuzz looks Awesome
cheers man, i love the fuzzy to! got bout 10 oz left of that, same strain as i'm growing now, but it will end up very different i'm sure.

thanx man, it is pretty hairy hey, reminds me of a hairy redhead chicks piubes,

update day 22......things are looking superb, nutes are at full strength, and she's handling it bigtime, no nute burn whatsoever, no deficiencies, no spotting, nothing. what the!!!?? is there something wrong with it? i was really doubtful of this pathetic looking clone, i had no choice in the matter, this or wait 3 months..... good choice i think, it's amazing what you can do with a little baby clone!!

:leaf:Beautiful flo!! How much longer before you make the switch?
I know i know! people are pming me to tell me to flick the switch!!, i guess thats why people don't understand how i get such a huge yield from one plant ;)
i still got around a couple of weeks yet, when she gets a little taller, i will put my netting in, and train her outwards a bit, but not yet, as i actually need her to stretch now, as i have easily enough arms for big yield, i plan to flip around the 20th February, 23rd at the very latest.
If i was to flower now, i would probably only yield maybe 8 ounces or so at a guess, but my job with this girl is to fill this tent to the sides, before i even hit the flower nutes, this strain seems to throw out copious amount of pre-flowers throughout the entire grow, so when i do turn the timer back, she turns really quick, almost 2 days i will see visible flowers appearing. I will be aiming for 1 pound ATLEAST this time, i have ample time to grow her to size, and her stalks are thick, strong and extremely healthy, i put my filter back on yesterday, cause i noticed my house started to smell like weed growing, temp went up 3 degree with the restricted airflow with adding my carbon filter, but hasn't affected the plant, she is 100% healthy. and i can safely say my best yet. she is really starting to drink now 5-7 litres per day....temp is a stable 34 degrees (little hot but humidity is up at 55%) so thats fine, got all the windows open now for some fresh air, raining outside so nice and cool, just checked temp, gone down another 2 degrees....32*

from here on i pay even closer attention to how she grows, growth is looking very even, and sides of the plant is very bushy, i'll have my training cut out for me this time. I will be taking clones very shortly from her, stay tuned if you're keen to see how i chop her down! people will freak. I'm gonna fuckin hack her, top her and shock the fuck out of her. ON PURPOSE !! all in the name of horticulture. i dont know anyone else on this site who does what i do, so we'll see if it catches on......i dare say it will, i can clearly see her future, atleast 24-30 fat colas growin on this girl, this XL cyco is some serious shit. NO SHIT. i am saying atleast a 30-40% increase in size and new foliage from the XL, just look at he growth in the pics day 16 to now ! 6 days she doubled. SHREK IS A FREAK

:leaf:Cool deal man. Yea I wouldnt flip the switch yet either, I was simply asking. We think along the same lines tho b/c I veg my girls for 6-8 weeks before I even think about hitting the switch. I like 'em to be big & bushy when they go to the flower room. I usually gauge it by their size...I finish 'em in 5gal buckets and when they are 1.5-2 times the size of the bucket I'll flip the switch. My WhiteRhino will be going in in the next few days. :lol:

ever thought of topping them like i do? i can see you have to a couple? (big bud) ... you like have just 1 cola on top?, it's been quite the discussion amongst some followers

not that its wrong or dodgy not to, just a thought, i'd love to see those girls in my setup, oooooohhh especially that afghooey, makes me all gooey, how much do u harvest after 6 weeks vegin those girl?

How do you top? The ONLY thing I have topped is the BigBud, none of the others ever had any training/topping/fim-ing whatsoever. This is my first run w/ the Afgooey so we'll see lol. And yea, even with never topping the Afgooey, they have like 10-15 tops each. Grape Ape is the only one with a single cola so I'll see what difference there is in harvest weight when the time comes. :lol:

i top nearly as soon as i put my clone in, maybe day 3-4, this immediately stops vertical growth, and straight away and instead of having 1 main coming out from the top, you could have 6-10, depending on how many growing nodes you have before removing the top., then i wait...... still waiting now, in the next weekish, keep an eye out, i will give advance notice when I'm about to do this, as i WANT people to learn this technique. if they choose to do so ofcourse. at about week 4-5 i top again, all the highest branches, i step back and look at the plant carefully and try to visualize what branches are growing the fastest, and what ones need catching up.
ok, the ones that are around the centre of the bushiness growing outwards will still have much stretch to do, they may, or may not reach the top, i go up 1 level, and i remove maybe 4 clones from this 3 quarter level. (bottom branches always seem to stretch more) then i go ahead and dive in to the top middle section, search for the closest branches growing towards the light usually around 4 mains maybe 6, i chop the right down, i take a large clone from each growth, maybe up to 4-6 nodes, large leaves and all, making sure i leave atleast 3 nodes of growth for new branches, so instead of having 1 branch to train away from the light, i will have 3 mains from that 1 branch. , they all will indeed be as big as each other, dividing the cells, not the plants structural growth (this is misunderstood my many) and becasue the plant is soo big, she responds almost imediately and all the energy will be put into making those new branches grow as quickly as possible to reach that light!!! i may take upto 10 clones depending on how the plant is growing, i want an even rate so when i flower., all nodes are at equal growth...(buds same size), equal amounts of nutrients, equal amounts of light,, so on an so forth. this is horticulture science. In no way does this harm your yield. it exponentially increases your yield. I notice alot more growth and bigger buds on the branches i chopped down, with alot more bud sites, and a more more even canopy. BUT, i do select my branches extremely carefully, and take the desired amount of nodes, not for cloning purposes , but for even growth, this is of utmost importance to me,as i dont want some buds reaching for the roof, and some just growing spindly. this has to be timed right down to the very day. if i flip a day or 2 late, i mess my growth pattern up entirely, and i miss my only chance of even growth
.

if you have any questions. i will try and answer them to the best of my knowledge. i was taught by a guy, who i swear was put on this planet to grow weed. he just knows the plant, and is not worried doing this method. he considers it THE ONLY method!! and told me to trust him, i did, and boy oh boy. it' soo hard to listen to someone when it feels so wrong! my plant was in his hands the first grow (not published) but i watched EVERYTHING. IN SHOCK

By the way, i am not saying everyone should do this, it takes patience, and i am no pro at this, but getting better, but I DO understand how this works now, as i have seen both methods. plus i got a pat on my back from my 'teacher' very humbly saying, good work the other day, i saw the look in his eye, he was shocked to, he hasnt seen this, he gave me the cut, he's shocked let me tell you
