Well friends and growers, sorry it has been so long since my last entry. I have been back and forth from the States and severe internet problems in Costa Rica. Today I am still in the States and will be another week so no pictures today. Presently the clones from August are almost finished flowering and should be ready for the drying room upon my return.
The NL plant being in a greenhouse went into flower upon reaching its 5th set of branches. Being that this is the first time that I have used the new genetic type seeds I am impressed with the size of the flowers. After 2 weeks of flowering they are bigger around than my thumb and growing more rapidly than any common bag seed I have ever had.
The Hawaii X Mauii Wauii is also in the greenhouse and has reached almost 18" and showing no sign of sex. Makes me wonder on the light requirements. The days continue to shorten and even the newest of clones are flowering.
Master Kush is a totally new strain for me and the growth is slow but a very healthy plant. She is totally outside so the difference in temp might have something to do with the growth rate.....guess I will findout more after the 21st of December when the days start to increase in length.
Already scheduling next years planting schedule.....
I have ordered a new seed Jack Horror and am anxious to see if it is as good as the reviews all my friends here have said. Good growing and I promise full pictures next week.:joint::joint:

nice plants, they are sure to produce lots of good herb. you said you were using a nutrients called "petersons" or something like that. I have had trouble locating good nutes down here, but have recently been using Evergreen 20-20-20 plus fish emulsion in veg, and more evergreen flower nutes, with some organic molasses aded. results are pretty good. do you throw right in the topsoil or do you add anything to it?
