Indeed, I failed to see things at that big resolution! I had some over fertilizing issues following the feed schedule of my fertilizer, as I balanced it upon how plants react now they all grow twice as fast from before and are a lot healthier.

Nice picture additions simisims! They are looking fine, I guess those minor issues are the best case scenario for the issue where you were missing 12 days. :P It is my first grow, but yet I hope to get buds similar to the ones you have, that are some badass flowers!

Though I never expected cannabis to have such a great smell, even my mum likes it. :D Beside all other things for which we like it, cannabis is such a beautiful flower. :)
YES! those mj plants are such beauties.. In the mornings I sometimes spend 40min just sitting in the room and checking every leaf on them :) I never get enough hehe.. But careful about the smell.. cause they signal about problems with it. So far the most wonderful smell for me was from C99... Ahhh tropical freshness...
Your avatar looks real beautiful indeed :)

That girl watered the plants as she is used to water her flowers at home... Pouring water until she saw half filled tray... :/
I said exact quantities of water to water, gave her syringe and told her exact amounts of nutes to add. there was only two bottles she needed to use.
But she took initiative, read my garden calendar where I was marking which ferts and how much per liter I was using, and made some nasty mixture, cause there was so much precipitate in the tray... I did not had any of it throughout the whole grow..
But plants survived.. Now the question whether flushing zamal 3 times the medium and then adding regular feeding would do any good. Cause that would give some overwatering stress but hydroperoxyde could even the loss of oxygen when leaching..

You need faster draining soil if 3x the volume of the pot will make it look overwatered! Flush then feed with some hydrogen peroxide mixed in. It's a good practice to do every few weeks if you aren't doing a totally living soil where you only feed some sugars for the microbes. But that involves bringing stinky organic shit into the house.

prob I need to add more perlite then? Cause last time I leached Zamaldelica, I did not have to water her for over a week, because soil was soaked with water... usually I water every 3-4 days. Leaching every two weeks? :D that's often.. omg.. Ok, then tomorrow I'll be doing some root laundry.. Last time I flushed her was June 18th.. my apartment almost drowned, this time hopefully everything will go smoother

One of the reasons I want to switch to a hempy grow is I like really fast drainage that allows you to totally clean out the medium by having water drain out the bottom as fast as you pour it in but you have a reservoir that lasts 2-3 days. Best of both worlds. And no guessing how fertile your soil is. I don't like to have guesswork in my grow!

maybe you are getting close to harvest man, are your buds still growing?or they have stopped? i am using epsom salts for mg, a pinch every 3 weeks. Did i tell you that i am in love with your plants?

Be my guest mister :) I'll try to do my best



:))) yeah, actually I have to admit that even I get too high from 2 tokes of water pipe. I wish you could see how little I put in that pipe.. she's already smoking at very little doses..
Every forum thread I read people suggesting to toke less or harvest earlier or smoke leaves :))

I'd really love some easy uplifting clear minded buzz that would not give you heart racing or anxiety effect, C99 is almost like that, but I had two times some bad experience from it, had to sit down and try not to move because it was too intensive. Heart was beating the hell out of me, I got paled and nearly sick. And that was from a bit bigger cookie than I usually eat 1st time, and 2nd time from smoking the same C99, but toking two times instead of one.. So I imagine my wife who is like nearly half my weight would need even less..

My first C99 I grew I cut at around 56-57day, curred without humidipaks and it had way lower potency.. Maybe I just need to do 2 part harvest on C99 and keep lower part for like 60+ days :)

I saw some people recommending mexican landrace, jillybeans, durban poison.. dunno, too many things to try out when I have perfect strain just a bit too intensive. Prob I'll play with C99 with different harvest days.. :)

I know I am late on this one but get some grape fruit kush from Barnie s one of the best for the up but not lock you down high!!!



Just my opinion I could be wrong

I think we over think it sometimes there is always some turn in color near the end of the grow !We can make things worse by adjusting what has been working !!!

Flush her in the bath tub. My phone wanted to change that to flush heroin. Ha!
damn my entrance from 2nd floor where i grow is not big enough to go downstairs with the plant... and i dont have bathtube upstairs.. there's a way to go with the plant through stairway, but then i'd risk the neighbors to see me.. but it would be so convenient... still had to work for 3 hours before going home, will think of something :)

when you maintain balanced food, plant does not go yellow, it won't do any worse than it is, at worst case scenario i'll have the same what i have now :) u'll see plant will say thank you to me :)

argh... took me two hours. Finally finished leaching Zamal. Got a lot of salty salts out of the medium.. To my surprise soil was real nice, water was running very easily through the medium, not like last time when I had to wait every two liters until it will go through.. Was a struggle to get the plant one floor down, cause this apartment is joined from two apartments and the guy who made it left a very little hole, so I hardly managed to climb the ladder with a 20L container in my hands :D After leaching added 2ml/L hydroperoxyde, reduced other nutes like by 30%. If she will not show some progressing N def, will reduce it even more. After everything was done while lifting her back to the place I think I heard Zamal whispering something like - "Thank you".. :)
here are some growroom abroad pics :)

that ios7 beta on iphone4s drives me mad. Still need to relearn how to take normal pics.

looks like she's really almost there..

this is like "screwdriver", just grow food instead of apple juice and water instead of vodka...

You are right simisimis, the smell is quite dangerous! Good job on the flush! She will be back healthy very soon I guess. :) And Santa's, ohh. <3 :)

I'm sorry for going off-topic here, but roughly at which week your plants stopped growing in height?

I couldn't climb a ladder with a 20L pot full of soaking soil, I'd hospitalize myself. Also 20L worth of plant wouldn't fit in my space well at all. I bet I could beat 10oz in my space with a single plant though. It's 4 sq ft and Stella can hit a qp in under 2 sqft. I just did the conversion from oz/sqft to g/m^2 and it's ~300g/m^2 to 1oz/sq ft. So 8 oz would be 600g/m^2 which is fucking impressive yield for a small space and I bet dialed in I could hit 2.5/750.

she looks pretty good for just being flushed and for being so neglected. Especially since how long has it been since you first saw pistils?
told you bro! So much easier! I wish I had one of those moveable showerheads.

That's a lot, how hard is your water? If it wasn't for the pic of the nutes going into solution I would say you had a lot of iron in your water. But I guess that could be fert salts. I have an extra drain tray that I use so after the plant has drained I can go pitch the runoff. Keeps them looking much cleaner.

No way man, Santa's bag is full of super dank dried cured seeded buds and maybe clones in protective tubes. What if he hits turbulence and some branches break? He'll be trailing stanky danky for miles!

Nice man.... well I have grow space like 2 sq ft, maybe 2.5. And I'll get from both plants about 2-3oz.. well surely I have some space where to improve :)
walking down was already a pain since buds were hiting walls, then I wrapped them in trashbag cause I knew those buds would go out of order. But going up... that was a real struggle, anyway, worth it.. really eager to see how she will look tomorrow.
I do not have too much of iron in my water. I had that in the town where I was born and tasting tap water would already make me sick.. here water is pure transparent and after boiling it there are no precipitate.. but still it has like 8.5pH and 300ppm... And all of that browning is from overwatering with overferted water.. Prob my biogrow food since it's so brown gives the colour.. Jeses..those cindy cookies I just baked and had one of them, it's easier to shit a brick than to write text in my journal :)))

Anyway I want to lift the pot from the tray so I could more of runoff.
Yeah you're right about difficult transport of late-in-flower weed plants over the dried&cured buds, but so is ferarri or a fridge, yet everyone gets what they want :)

I don't really know what to do with buds getting too heavy for the stems.. next time maybe I need to think about scrog? would be so much easier, but damn that space is limited.. I would be able to access that grow space only from 1.5 sides... but i still have time till next harvest to figure..

well well well.. 2 more hours and Will be cutting Destroyer down.. I wonder whether flooding and putting in a dark corner will do any good :) The room was dark but not light proof there was still some very low light reaching flowers, but more like a moon light, so I am not worrying too much about it. Temps were quite high 75-77. Could not get it lower than 75.. Will post update after harvest.
Cheers

I need to start supporting Stella already and she's only a month in! Probably has a month and a half to go for seeds at least.
Ferrari's are easy to transport. Just push your left foot down and turn the key/push the button. I guess some of them you pull back with your hand to start but I'm not a good enough driver for the drop in shift time switching to a paddle shift from a traditional manual to be worth the loss of shifting traditionally. It was bad enough I had to give up having a manual as a daily driver because of knee problems, I will not give it up in a sports car!

Well never drove sports car, but in last 8 years drove enough regular auto or manual cars to not want to do it again.. Now When I was on holidays, after 2 years I took out my bike from garage and did some serious washing and waxing.. 1993 american honda nighthawk cb750 4 cilynders, 490lbs... THat surely brought some colors in my life... had to do 200 miles with it, so now I'll be sleeping calmer hehe.. It's a pity in Amsterdam everybody cycle and here I don't see myself having a street bike..

Ok, finally, Destroyer's hanging :)

THat flooding and ~100 hours of darkness really did something interesting to plant.. can't really tell what exactly. One of the things fan leaves dried while plant was growing. Plant got bright green color closer to the stem. Quite a lot of resin.. Could not believe how resinous that plant was. BUT it has more leaves than buds lol.. still even after quite serious trimming finally got to this...
29.Day114_Aug30_Dest1.jpg29.Day114_Aug30_Dest2.jpg29.Day114_Aug30_Dest3.jpg

this is way more than I was expecting.. When I started trimming fan leaves I realized that I'm not that hopeless grower as I was starting to imagine :)


Another thing. OMG. I thought lets check how does the destroyer roots look like, cause this was the first time I was using container coating. I lifted the stem and whole unit of soil and roots went out. BUT... Look how nicely microkote container coating works... You can barely see those roots... no spinout whatsoever... So glad that I took KH advice! The only thing some white tiny drops can be seen on the pot in the pics. From the smell I think it's some sort of fungi. Prob because the plant was dipped in the water for that long.. But the roots... after 15 weeks root ball is so nicely and neatly packed... I'm speechless :)
