That stuff is a good smoke, one if my favorites. The shop around here used to have it often. I just got some Cali dream yesterday, that stuff is killer too

I wish I could store the aroma and sell it on a sniffable keychain, it smells that good. I think the Pineapple Express from G13 labs that I'm running currently, is the best phenotype I've ever laid my nose upon though, with Emerald Triangle's Grapefruit Krush being the second best. More important to me than potency, appearance, and density is the way the flavor tickles the palette.

So I'm getting what looks to be a Cal/Mag deficiency? This problem is appearing on fan leaves coming out of the main colas. It seems as though only one plant is having this problem but another has been acting weird as well. I'm worried that my ph meter might be malfunctioning and this could be a ph problem? Either way I need to get it taken care of. I flushed around New Year's Eve. Anyone?

Photo #'s 3, 4, and 5 are the photos in question.

Looks like a Cal/Mag issue to me too. Well, MG really, but Cal Mag would be my course of action to correct it. What are you feeding? I think we've been over this a bunch of times, but I follow so many threads and this one is 120+ posts. I can't cope with that right now, lol.

That seems pretty legit. I remember, we just went over this a week or so ago. I don't think you'd want to feed any more than this. This is pretty strong at these levels. It's GrowBig that you only use during weeks 3 and 4. Nitrogen is scarce in TigerBloom and BigBloom and without that 2 week boost they will suffer sever leafdrop.

I'm not sure there's a lot that you can do about that slightly distressed leaf. Some of that is going to occur on the lower leaves. You could try a *little* more Cal Mag, but really I'd leave it alone at this point. For nearly 5weeks into flower they look great. YOu ba

damn, this is an awesome grow that i cant believe i havent seen yet. great job man.

about the problem; have you flushed since you've been in flower???

Yes, I flushed once, I think it was New Years Eve. I plan on flushing again after another week or two. Then it's water only for a couple weeks. I'm amazed at my progress this far. It took what seemed like forever to get here but now that I'm here, it was all worth it. I better not speak to soon though, not quite finished yet.

I've decided I'm going to flower two of the from clone WW's and run 1x Pineapple Express, 1x Jack Herer and 1 x White Widow as mothers from here on out. I chose the best performing Widow to be a mother. Shes smelling like straight up peanut butter right now and she has grown the fattest colas of all 3 widows that were sprouted. I'll probably continue running clones from those 3 mothers from here on out. At least for a year or two so I can master the strains.

Thanks for showing interest!

Some photos for your enjoyment

Nothing serious, just some photos.

Chopped down the shabbiest of the 3 widows to get something to smoke on til harvest time. They were getting a bit wider than I expected anyway, they were a bit too crodwed under the cooltube. It has a tiny foot print. I plant to get rid of it after this run and replace it with a Big Kahuna or something similar. Final dry weight on the small widow was around 45 grams. Not bad for a small 3 gallon pot with a somewhat early flip to flower. Failure to transplant on time when they were babies really stunted the veg growth Oh well. Still happy

I'm happier than a fly on poop

And for good reason. Things look like they are moving along famously!

Heres the two tiny trees that you might remember as those sad ass looking sickly plants in the first photo lol. They sure do look nice and healthy now. I love the size of them. The S.A.G.E. looks like a tiny Xmas tree.

Got a new reflector upgrade. The cooltube just doesn't give a good footprint. This one is huge. Oh, and I got a second 1000 watt ballast and bulb. I'm going to wait until I get 240 volts running to my tent then I'll get a second hood and run them both.

Lookin good man. I really like the last shot... fat nugget!

Thanks! At first I was thinking about discontinuing the Widow but I love the way the buds are getting that "bull-headed" look like a see typically of White Rhino. Those fat tipped colas I like much more than the cone shaped colas.

I harvested the 5 flowering girls from the smart pots and they are now in jars curing. I'm on to a bigger and better journal that I will be starting later this evening (in the correct section this time lol) when my internet connection at my spot gets fixed.

I took a trip to a collective that my cousin runs and picked up 3 clones that are taken from 11th generation mothers that were imported from California almost a decade ago. He gave me the complete VIP tour of his facility including a sample medicating session consisting of about 30 different strains. I have never before felt every possible type of buzz available from cannabis all at once and it was a very unique experience.

Since I was able to get a preview of the final fruit, I HAD to grab one of his Grand Daddy Purple's. The things are amazingly purple. So purple that they are almost black, and they have a lovely grape tinge to the smoke. I also picked up a Headband that had ASTONISHING potency as well as a Jacky White that looked like it was just blasted with frost. I'm letting the branches get a bit longer before I snip cuttings.

I took 15 clones from the 2nd generation clones of my own and a few of them have rooted in just 8 days. After I let the mothers regenerate a bit, I put them in with the other flowering girls. I am so amazed at how much better I am doing on this run. I thought all of the research on indoor growing I had done over the last 15 years would allow me to put out excellent product in a heavy yield on my first try but I was wrong. In just 30 days of vegging, this run is already twice the size that the first run was at it's time of harvest and this run just now went to flower yesterday.

I'm finished rambling. Here are some photos.

And here are some photos of my cousins plants. These are the same plants that my new clones were taken from.

Heres the GDP harvested alongside some Lemon Cake



Here is the GDP still alive



This is the Jacky White



And finally the Headband



According to my cousin these are some of his best yielders.

Yeah the headband yields real nice, esp the indica dom phenos. I pulled 8oz off 2 plants that were crammed inbetween a bunch of other stuff. plants never look huge but the nugs r rock hard so when they dry they retain a good deal of their mass. Some strains when you dry em go to shit.
