sweet shagz :)

looking overall very nice!! awesome variety, by the looks of 4th pic, maybe a boost of magnesium/nitrogen to delay the leaf discolouring, a bit early for that to be happening, cycoflower's Dr. Repair which i mostly use has a sufficient amount of nitrogen aswell as enough mag to buffer, the darker your leaves the more food she will have stored for juicy buuuud :)

I wanted to add that I appologize to not having any responses to everyones comments. Atm i'm switching my net provider and because of where i'm posting I want to avoid long exposure to wandering eyes. Soon as I get my services up n running, I will be more tuned in!! Peace!!

Day 24!! Wow these ladies are really blowing up. Right now they are getting 10M/10G/20B, with no sign of stress or burn. Next pdate will be Sunday night, dead on 4 weeks possibly the halfway point. All phenos have close similarity except for the smells. Will get into that more with the next update. Peace and Enjoy!! :)

Day 28!!!! Got some slight leaf tip burn from the last feeding. Will be dropping the nutes back slightly, thinking of 7G/14M/21B. Aside from the slight burn all is looking great so far!! Enjoy :)

Wanted to add that Phenos (A, B, T, V) are all relatively the same in structure with mixed smells of fruitiness n skunk. Phenos (U, Y) have a similar stucture, with greater internodal spacing and smaller buds. Smells like lemon cleaner with some skunky undertones. Still to early to tell on which will have the best mix in yield and potency. Looks n smells very yummy so far tho!!!

Incase anyone is wondering what the lettering system is about. A through to G was the first batch popped. With a high rate of males to females as the A n B were the only ones kept. Next batch I started from the end of the alphabet and worked backwards with the majority being females. In the end I think the ratio had to do with my temps at the time. Cooler temps on the first batch popped and more optimal temp range on the second batch.

Have some beans popped n started in hempy cups that will be posted and detailed info at a later date. Thanks for stopp'n by, Peace!!!

Day 35!! Well the smell factor has definitely kicked in and I now kno my filter works perfectly :) Now the semi bad news. I had an annual inspection dropped on me. Only place I could move them was outside (approx -6 brrrrr). They were wrapped n packaged into some heavy grade cardboard boxes and then the boxes were also wrapped. They proabaly only seen about 0, temp-wise for approx 5 hours (had to move them in the dark otherwise it would have only been for 15-30min. As far as I can tell, none of them took any damage aside from a few lower leaves died. Will be ready for this next time with an insulated box with a heat blanket to keep them warm enough (If i'm still living here). Kicker is they didn't even go into the room with the tents. On with some pix n frostiness :) Peace!!!

First pic is just before the light comes on. The gap in the fourth pic is only there when they get watered.

I just love that pic of the standalone 2L. Really nice node spacing and bud formation. That strain looks great man.

How do you water them? Do you bring them outside or feed them inside the tent?

Thanks Moe :) I always look forward to the standalone pic also. Singles it out so you can actually see what is going on in the jungle lol. They are set up in rows, so I just slide them all to one side and feed/inspect and then postion them into their spots as I go. They take approx 10-12oz every 2 days, with minimal run-off.

I was thinking of getting some 2L carriers (8 per case) and using them for my holders. It seems where I live the stores don't throw them out. They hang on to them and when a delivery is made they take the previously delivered ones. I have a long list of ailments due to a nasty accident and think the 8 rack would be best for being able to bring them out onto a table and watering rather than being hunched over. Plan in motion so we will see :)

Sorry to hear about your accident buddy. .. Ive generally been quite lucky but I did break my wrist when I was 15 and it periodically gives me pain but nothing too disabling.

Finding solutions to little issues like that DOES make a big difference to the enjoyment of the hobby and ultimate success, you'll figure out the best methods for you Im sure.

I slide mine out from under the lights because I don't like the photons hitting my skin. .. I'm considering wearing a 'burka' when I go into the grow-room LOL

The idea of a 2L rack makes sense. I made mine because I couldnt find a plastic store one that I could take home. ... When I mentioned this idea on WOH someone said the stores just give you them, but my experience is the stores swap them over,just like you say. ... I don't think the stores actually own them.

Anyways, this one is on ebay. I saved it in my 'watch list' and it didnt sell last time. It's $9.99 but it;s a collectable and could be resold after. Personally I would need larger racks but it might be something you consider. .. I'm sure fleebay has others too.

Didn't notice till now but it says "Return for deposit"!! I'm guessing the stores have to pay a deposit for them. I could always go to Pepsi/Coca-Cola and ask for them, in the process I would kinda be advertising their product haha. Another reason I was thinking of these crates is they are made of hard plastic. I could fasten bamboo or garden stakes to them and they would hold strong. Never have to worry about any containers spilling over or heavy branches breaking. I think they even have handles or slots on the end to pick them up :)

I was in a motorcycle accident, citys fault due to trying to miss a pothole at the top of a hill, that went across the whole road. Hit the pothole, ended up just crossing the center line and a car was coming up the other side. :(Needless to say I don't want to get into what I broke lol. Was in ICU (intensive care unit) for 2 - 1/2 months on life support. Months later I had to learn to walk again. Any way to make it easier on my shoulders/knees and back is alright by me :)

I think they would be pretty stable anyhow, they're designed to be that way. .. also , they drain, which makes them much lighter to carry and means they can be pulled from the tent and placed over a sink (or similar) to feed and put straight back in the tent. ... for me this is the 'ultimate' in 2L Hempy holders. LOL.

Hey ... Maybe they call them pot holes because after you hit one 'Cannabis' is what you need to take the pain away. :confused:

Psilocybindude Dislikes this. There is no dislike button so I'm doing it manually... Sorry to hear about your accident man it sounds like one hell of an ordeal you went threw, glad to see that you seem to be persevering threw it though, i cant imagine the recovery from a wreck like that, and as usual the plants are looking beautiful man.
