Good morning all! I'm a little behind on this grow, so this post will be sprout to 12/12.

Strain: HSO Chocolate Mint OG (GDPxOGK)
Medium: 3Gsl Smartpot, FFOF w/ 30% perlite
Nutes: FF Trio + Solubles
Lights: 2 300w LED

Begged for about 65 days. Would have been about 2 weeks shorter, but had a pretty major ph issue right after topping the first time. The plant is mainlined to 8 tops, plus a few lower branches per main for samples and whatnot. Let me know what you think! She's been on 12/12 for just over a week.

Nice pics mate, looking nice and healthy. Just got some of these seeds myself. I've never seen any reports or growers info on this strain only what hso put out on their site. I will be starting mine in roughly 2 months. Anything stand out so far about strain?.

Thanks! She is a super strong plant. I topped her and then had a major oh issue that went unseen for a week or so and she almost died, got the ph corrected, and she went straight back to new growth two days later. Keep her trimmed up too, this strain wants to produce a lot of lanky side shoots. I just did my early flower trim and took a couple handfuls of little stubby suckers off. I mainlined this time around but it would do AMAZING under a scrog. She's pretty tolerant of nutes as well. I screwed up last week and fed heavy doses twice in a row, two days apart, and not a single burnt tip. And she's HEAVILY crystaled already at three weeks, they started showing up at about 18 days, almost before the bud structure.

Here's pictures for week 3 Update





 
I see no signs of burn or overfeeding either mate, very healthy dark green leaves aswell. I am doing my first ever og at the moment and ive never ran such a heavy feeder as she is, what e.c are you sitting at now?. Is there any smells coming thru yet? . You look set for a nice yield if all goes good, do you plan running her the 10 weeks or 8-9?.
 
No dramas mate I go by tric's aswell and like 30% amber which usually runs an extra 10 days to 2 weeks ontop of breeders said 8 weeks. Gl with her.

Begining of week 5 update! She's cracking along like crazy, putting out tons of crystals.

Now the bad...I'm seeing some PM on inner canopy leaves. Started mitigation last night with a fan blowing up under the canopy, also going to get a moisture absorber to bring humidity down. Kicked the fan up to about 80% from 50% as well. Hoping I can keep it at bay for the next 3-4 weeks. Know of anything I can spray this late?

Milk and water and spray, put it under the fan to make it dry faster and with the help of the moisture absorber you shloud be fine

Done, and noticed it pretty bad on the auto i have in there too, but may just chop that one down, its going to be airy and a pain in the ass anyway. Still need to get the moisture absorber, but got the plant sprayed and will spray again in a couple days.

Good morning all! End of week 5, beginning of week 6 update. No more signs of PM on either plant, I'm going to spray one more time to be safe before buds start to swell. Started cutting out N all together last feeding, will start some blackstrap next week and start flushing in a week and a half. Let me know what you think!!!

Beginning on week 8 update! Less than two weeks left! Flushed with double the volume with sledgehammer on Saturday, and watered with PH'd water and honey last night. Going to start breaking out the digital microscope in about a week or so here, may even check it in a couple days, but the red hairs are few and far between right now, so im thinking at least a week and a half left. Added a little bud porn for y'all, still need to get a propper macro lens for my cam.
