8 weeks of 12/12 today. Seeing some amber. Probably another week or two I'm guessing, but looking pretty frosty.

Blue Mystic from Nirvana is such an easy girl to grow, but unfortunately i couldn't find a keeper. I had one that was covered in trichs, let it go 30 amber, and it finished all green and pretty but the smoke sucked. I was so disappointed because it was the healthiest plant.... I hope you get a better pheno.

What would you like to know?
Hey Mo, as far as which strains would be compatible with the White Rhino in the same cabinet.

Since the NL5xskunk#1 are regular seeds and will be grown the the cabinet alone, what can I expect from height, they say medium height.
Have you grown any of these strains Mo?

What sucked about it? The smoke or the stone? Or both?

it was very mild, nothing exceptional. didn't last very long, and couldn't recommend it to anyone based on what i got. i was very disappointed by this strain.

I'm currently a week or 2 from harvest with an exodus cheese and it's perfect for mainlining! In a 5 gallon grow bag its about 24-30 inches off the dirt with a nice thick stem structure. The thickest buds of the 4 girls i have going right now. Unfortunately she's not as frosty as I would like(possibly my fault though), but I've read some good things about her. I'll get some pics up soon for ya.

I like the mild strains for some of my patients that are just starting out. It is much more forgiving for first timers.

My first time was with a joint of Colombian Gold leaf! I have seen it listed as 3%. Laughed my ass off and no sativa paranoia.

I wanted to Mainline at the beginning of my season... but after 6 weeks the girls were looking so nice and had like 6 lovely nodes or so and my bf freaked out and said "no way you can't chop it all off".... so 2016 season - I shall CHOP it all OFF... just when he's not looking (shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh don't tell him!) :D

I will be putting some beans in water to soak next Monday to start another grow. Prior to that I am going to make a mix of 60/40 coco/growstone.
I do plan on planting directly into the 4 gallon Hempy as I did last grow, really like this method as the I believe the roots reach the reservoir faster.
I may do one in a modified Hempy, fill reservoir of a 5 gallon Hempy with growstone and put the coco/growstone mix in a two or three gallon smart pot. Then place smart pot over the reservoir/growstone and then fill the voids around the smart pot inside the Hempy bucket. I am wondering if doing this will reduce the amount of watering times to a less frequent cycle. Comment or suggestions would be gr8.

Going to mainline/hub two White Rhino's and maybe a Exodus Cheese. Will decide that later.
Looking forward to getting back at it again.

Do tell us how much weight you got from that baby once it's nice and dry! =D Great job! I'd hit it!

And looks like we were pretty close in our grow cycle because I've also harvested mine!

Here is my 8 head mainlined Cheese, already hanging upside down and waiting to provide good times all around =)

last night I broke off one of my two heads when trying to tie her down for the first time. tried taping back on but could tell this morning it just didn't take.

I've moved past my cursing and being mad at myself phase, and am now at the "what now" point. so, do I just let it grow out naturally to try and save any yeild, or should I keep on with the mainline and try to turn her into 4 heads?

basically at this point just trying to salvage what end yeild I can.

thanks in advance for any advice!

During my last mainline I had a bad morning where the fan didn't come on and I didn't catch it for 20 mins and the temps in my fridge got up to 127*F.
Talk about PISSED, and CURSING.... I wanted to kick my own ass !
It damaged one of the plants so bad that only 1 of my current 4 colas would grow at all.
So I cut the other 3 off, let the 1 veg a bit and topped it once more for 2 colas and I gotta tell ya... those two colas produced MASSIVE nugs because of the root structure powering/feeding them.
It ain't what it coulda been, but you will probably be good when all is said and done !
