FUCK YES i have problems with odor dude, lol. THE SHIT IS FUCKIN STINKY. I keep thinkin about how shitty my carbon filter is, lol, but then every day the smell just gets worse and worse. In the morning when the lights come on, like ten minutes after that everything smells like somebody threw a fuckin barrell o' nuggets onto a bonfire man. Fuckin PUNNNNGENT ass stank goin on in my apartment. I gotta keep some incense goin 24/7. THANKS LIQUID BLUE!! :clap:



Hey King, I just bought this shit from my local Brew and Grow today for 18 bucks. I haven't tried it yet, but I'll let you know how it works. It's a gel that you can divide up into different cups (like solo cups) or leave it in the container, and it supposedly does a pretty good job. After a while, depending on the temps, the crystals start to dry up but you can then just buy the liquid and rehydrate the crystals all over again.

Are you talkin about ONA?? i got a couple jars up in the closet unopened. They work ok, but they dry out too too fast. If you can re-hydrate them thatd be the shit, n id probably end up usin them bitches all the time, although i did get tired of the 'fresh linen' scent, especially when i got some of it on my hands man, that shit is strong enough to make you puke if you get too much of it lol. But if its not ona, lemme know what it is, and how it works man, im willin to try anything. But to be honest, the insence is workin REALLY well, n makes my crib smell like a headshop, which i love man. I got Grateful Dead incense, 420 insence, Herbal Mask insence, Bob Marley, Pink Floyd, Alice in Wonderland, Jimi Hendrix, and a few other types too, but liquid blue makes them all. Fuckin love that shit, they burn twice as long as your regular insence would(i just recently discovered Liquid blue, although ive been burning regular insence, and nag champa on a daily basis for years). The most pungent shit is the Space Your Face grateful Dead shit man. It dont smell too bad, but it overpowers EVERYTHING that you may have goin on in your house that you may wanna cover up :D


****UPDATE NEWS*****

Ok, so i snapped off some pics this mornin of the ladies. Just some upclose pistil pics and some overall snapshots, just to let you guys see some porn (cuz i aint never goin THAT long without postin pics again man, even I was dyin, lol). Gimme a little bit here and ill put them bitches up. Takes a little longer than usual to post them up onto botophucket cuz my pc is runnin a little slow today, but ill get them on here in just a few minutes. The hairs are starting to go orange on all the plants but BC#2. its wierd. she must have a SHITLOAD of growing ahead of her if she looks nothing like the rest of the pack, but i aint complainin, lol :D

--anyways, gimme a minute n ill do a mini update ;)

OK, UPDATE TIME!!

So, theyve gotten a little bigger, but the main change that i wanna note this time around is that the pistils are going orange, and in some cases a little red (shoulda taken more pics for you guys). I cant wait for all the colors to come out so i can see what theyre gonna look like as i get closer to the end man, theyre just beautiful. Lets get started...

Quick Group Shot:
Kinda wish ida took them all out to rearrange them so you could see all the buds, but the only ones you can really see are Twilight, Bluecheese1, and Northern Soul


Twilight:
Shes finally filling in her main colas man. Every day she packs on a little weight, and its steady growth. Shes not gonna be the heaviest yielder, but she looks like, and smells like some amazing smoke. I took off a nugglet and started drying n curing about 4 days ago, so ill know in about 5-10 days wether or not shes quality. I wanna go through the process with one or two smaller nugs just to see what the potential of these little ladies are. Anyway, pics :D





BlueCheese#1
Just fuckin awesome man. Her hairs are turning aswell, her colas are getting thicker n thicker, and all of her secondary buds are lookin danky as hell. No complaints whatsoever with her. Shes lookin awesome. When i watered yesterday i gave all my flowering girls their first dose of Gravity, along with the PMaxx and their regular flowering nutrient regimen. Theyre not responding badly at all. Ive heard stories about how plants burn EASY as hell when you use Gravity and the plants are too close to the light, but so far its not the case with these girls man. Theyre responding really well, n i should see what type of effect the stuff will really have on the plants within the next day or two here if theres anything negative to see. Pics:






BlueCheese#2
The only plant without any orange pistils. Im not complainin at all, because that just means that shes not even close to done yet, and has a long way to go. Im seriously anxious to see what shell end up lookin like man. she has the fattest nugs out of all the girls, bar none. Cant fuckin wait man





Northern Soul
Another plant thats just gettin fuckin huge. Her colas are ALL big, with hardly any popcorn buds at all. So glad i topped this one man, i love seein big beefy tall colas man. Never thought i could grow chronic like this :D





WhiteBerry
Her nugs arent big man, i think im gonna have to get used to that fact. Im sure theyll pack on a decent amount of weight still, but i dont think shell end up finishing out anything close to the others. Her buds do look potent though, shes carrying more sugar on her leaves than any other plant in the group. I cant wait to see this one cured up.





--My Widows still arent showin pistils, but they both have preflowers, so like i said before, any day now well see some pistil action. The one that was droopin over to the side yesterday is fixed. I tied her to some bamboo so she was completely upright, and then i watered her just a little bit while i got ready everyones full drink prepared, and she perked up a little bit. When i actually gave her her nutrient mix, she completely perked up overnight. I couldnt believe that it was all because of underwatering man, ive never had a plant straight bend in half before on me, lol.

So anyway, My original plan was to give them a couple weeks of letting them dry out completely before watering, because ive read that giving them a little of both ends of the stick (both being a little wet non stop for a couple weeks, and then letting them go dry before watering for a couple weeks) is supposed to help them along in the process getting them to grow to their full potential, and ive been doing it for the last 3 waterings, just letting them go bone dry to the point of slight leaf droop before i watered. It does help though - i gotta say that every day before it was time to water, the plants did give a little something extra in trying to find moisture, n i ended up with a little bit of growth, but to be honest i dont think im gonna do that again. I dont like the idea of letting them get to the point of leave droop before i water - thats undue stress right there man.


-So there you have it, i hope you liked the pics. Ill do another one probably the day after my next watering, unless something happens between now n then thats update worthy :D

Thanks Nug, preciate it. U too Gyps, lol.

Now, i just took a second look at one of my plants, and now i have to look over all of them again in the morning. The Reason?? well, when i was looking at the pics again a couple hours back i was just thinkin to myself that a couple of these plants have way too many red n orange hairs to be almost 4 weeks from finishing. So i took a little nug off of my Northern Soul plant, and threw a couple of the tiny leaves underneath my 420 scope. And from what i can see, all of the trichomes are milky. I double checked another leaf, and its the same thing. Nothin but milky trichomes with the occasional clear head. I even brought up a pic of some milky Vs. clear trichomes for reference, and then checked again to make sure, lol. Milky trichomes. So a couple of my girls have gotta closer to say 2 weeks from harvest, right? when you have milky trichomes you have about 2 weeks before you start seeing amber in your ladies, is that right??

Any advise on this would really be helpful right about now, lol.

That sounds about right man! If they are milky and the the hairs are changing, you could prolly start a flush on those ones. Just because you are flushing them doesn't mean you have to cut them early or any thing. If in 2 weeks they still didn't look quite done, then just give them a few more days. I think I would only flush the ones that are completely milky though.

Hey King, ladies are looking good. I totally forgot to post a link to the Odor Killer that I got. I bought it from Brew and Grow, but their picture is really small and you can't see it very good so here's a link to the same stuff with a better pic. http://www.discount-hydro.com/productdisp.php?pid=209&navid=23

And this link is to the 1 gallon refill liquid- http://www.brewngrow.com/detail.jsp?item=0479&category=14

This stuff only has a little bit of an odor when you first open it, and supposedly after that it doesn't really have an odor. Like I said though, I haven't opened it yet.

Yeah that's whAt I was thinkin too. I checkedd this morning and it's only the twilight a. Soul that are milky so I guess Ill dose them bitches with clearex next watering n then give thhem a full out flush the watering after that. I kinda wish they'd woulda took a little longer to go though
Ms . They both coulda stood to gain a little more weight before they finished up. But I still got two more weeks to go on them so who knows how they'll end up lookin. It can only get better LOL

So, i got a shot of my trichs. This is from Whiteberry, who wasnt supposed to be even close to finished cuz i started her actually about a week after i started the others, but shes actually just as close to bein finished as all the other ones are. I originally thought that two of the plants were gona be finished before all the others, but after takin a closer look, theyre all pretty much at the same place, almost. The Northern Soul and the Twilight have 100% milky trichomes. The Whiteberry, and the BlueCheeses are all right around the 75%/25% mark cloudy/clear. The pic, as i said is of Whiteberry, and its really blurry, but you can easily see the difference between the clear and cloudy trichs. So if anybody has any knowledge of about how long it will take for me to get to my ultimate goal which is 75% amber, 25% cloudy (i wanna have a higher cbd level for a smoother medicinal effect to my smoke - at least thats what i read, lol), id give all the props in the world for sharin your experience with the n00bie bastard that is K1 ;) lol.

checkum out:



-whadya think?? lemme know whats on your nugget.

Thanks for the compliment P. N TC u really think I should wait to flush until I start seeing Amber??? Thanks for the heads up.

So, the random bullshit problems continue. My Fuckin 1000 a hps blew this morning. It just won't fire back up. So I'm throwin in my 1000w MH for 3 days while I wait for the eye hortilux I just ordered to come in. I guess it's no big deal, cuz it's good for floweri g plants to get a dose of blue spectrum on them isn't it? Ideally we should all be using those dual arc bulbs for the whole grow right ? Well I ain't stressin out. I'll just keep my MH shining for three days n then hit the motherfuckers with the brightest light they'll see in their short short lifespan, lol. I think it'll do my bitches soMe good. Plus it'll give me a chance to take some really well lit pics of all the colors starting to come out in the nugs, hehe.


by the way, I clipped a sample nut from each plant just to take a good look at all of them( except BC#2 cuz she's nowhere close to done) under a microscope and see where they're really at, and obviously to check on how the smoke is progressing, lol, n I gotta say man, so far these samples rank up there with some of the best dank I've ever smoked. So far i've Smoked Northern Soul and twilight. BE is great, but twilight has a sweeter taste n the high is way heavier. The Ns has a nice uplifting high though, definitley a daytime smoke, while twilight just knocks you on your ass n makes u wanna sleep. Today I sample blue cheese #1 and whiteberry. I'll give a smoke report later on tonight. :D
