Cool, I'll be interested to see how your White Diesels turn out. I was disapointed with my first grow of them, which happened to be my second attempt as well. I think it really was the nutes that ruined me. Plus I let the PH slip a bit. I got kinda lazy.

Third times a charm. Im taking all the right steps in this grow.

Plants have gained a bit of height while I was gone out of town. The White Diesel is looking crazy. I don't know what the hell is wrong with it. The last White Diesels I grew came out crappy, but not like this one. I don't know if I should leave it or take it out.

I decided to flush them today just to keep the salts from building up. I also increased the ec of my res to 1.5 mS. PH 5.9.

The two Sweet Purples may be females, but its still too early to be certain. This would be great since the rest of the plants are feminised. The one I have second thoughts about is the one with the purple stems. The other Sweet Purple has a tiny white hair, that I dont think will show up on camera.

Thanks Dixie, trip was great.

About the White Diesel, here are some of the pics of my last crop of them. They grew so many leaves, but hardly any calyxes. And the calyxes that did form were very small, and grew stacked in these long rope-like columns.

Yep. Water, and about 1.5 tsp sugar, .75 tsp bakers yeast. Theres a ton of bottles in there. I keep them replenished every few days or so. Sometimes they just need a little more sugar. If not I try yeast. Then I dump them the next time they stop bubbling.

Yea, its not the environment thats causing the White Diesel to grow so retarded, its just genetics. NGT called it f.a.b. Fucked at birth. When it first sprouted, the first leaves on it were the size of a grain of sand. Its grown all stunted like that since then.

I just don't have the heart to kill it. Besides, maybe it will get me retardedly high, being such a retarded plant.

Day 32: Another pic update. Slight leaf issues showing on some of the lower leaves of the White Widows. Nothing bad yet, most leaves are completely green. I may flush them tonight or in the morning if I notice things getting worse. Still at 1.5ec right now.

I've started tucking fan leaves to let the side colas get light. This has proven to work quite well, since I can see them gaining in height.

The leaf issues have gotten much better now. I increases the ec to 1.8 (full strength), and it's made everything much greener and healthier. I also added a kelp based product for a little more K (1-1-1.5). I think that has helped the widow on the left with it's droopy leaf issue. They seem to be regaining vigor.

Day 35: I took some clones today. 4 White Widow, and 2 Sweet Purple. They're sitting with a florescent grow light, in my extra grow cab. I hope I did everything right. :-|

The one on the buttom left looks great. The others could use some trimming. Cut half way down all the big fan leaves, n if there is another branch below the nodes that are already growing (hence where the new growth will start to go) then slice the lower branch off . Or trim it up . getting rid of all that extra makes it worry about rooting more instead of taking care of leaves n branches it wont need n that will just be the buttom of the plant ;P . GOOD job tho . Looking good, i cant help by think the leaves on ur plants are alil droopy? o_O You checked into that?

Yea, the droopy leaf issue has gotten better. I think it was a lack of potassium since the seaweed blast seemed to work, but i'm not sure.
