  1. Second entry is a Gorilla Glue Auto again by Fast buds She has some pretty small buds still bud they are growing by the day and the "glue" is definitly noticable !
  2. Some absolutely gorgeous plants here !! Here is my first entry: LSD-25 from Fast Buds. She is on day 57. She is just to pretty, makes all my other plant look drab...
  3. Hey man, i just harvested my plants and completely forgot to take a pic with tag... The one I was going to enter was previously entered in the last competition. So it was previsouly ID’ed... Can I add some snaps without tag ?
  4. Damn man thats a beautiful grow ! Congrats, great pictures! Your fire hazard picture made my laugh ! That is a hectic set up haha Thoe buds look absolutely gorgeous !!
  5. Hey man, It seems you are having some Iron deficiency there. Iron is not usually a super common true deficiency, it is usually caused by another issue which affect your Iron intake by domino effect. Giving more isn't always the best option with Iron deficiency. Normally the first thing to look at would be your pH, make sure it is in the range of 5.5-6.5, 6 is nice and round. Measure the ph of your water going in and then your run off, see if there is a big difference. If you are 100% sure you have a stable pH next would be your calcium and magnesium. An imbalance can bring out Iron deficiency. Have your coco been buffered ? If not that could be a cause. Amongst else such as, increasing Ca and Mg and balancing Ca and Mg with K and Na, buffering coco helps reduce the displacement of originally contained potassium which by doing so makes it available to your plant and will be potentially taken up in excess. Mulder's chart state that an excess in Potassium will increase the demand of Iron by the plant. To fix that you would flush with pH'ed water and carry on your normal feeding supplementing with cal-mag. If that doesn't work I am not sure what else could be the issue.
  6. Aie aie are it's been too long... I have been lazy... Alright 13 days later... They have grown quite a bit as you can imagine. And there is quite a lot of new guys in the room. Lots of clones have rooted and some have been moved outside. The plant total is now at 23. All those picture are from the 31/10/18, I will post another update soon which will be live. I will also stop recording all the clones as it will just be too many plant to keep count. let's focus on the flowering ones. 31/10/18 : Day 39 Flower for the Chocolates and Dance World The most notable plant being out outside is probably a chocolate clone which has been moved into a 40L fabric pot. Hopefully she will grow big enough to be my christmas tree :D. There she is with a couple of other plants outside. As for the plant let's start with the Dance world, an 8 week flowering strain. She was quite slow at first and lagging behind compared to the other 2 ( choice haze, 9-10weeks). But she suddenly went into overdrive and is fattening up fast. She still remains a very bushy and thick plant and the buds don't seem extremely dense just yet, but the fragrance is fantastic, a fresh lemon,pine, spicy bouquet with fruity undertone added with the hazey sweet chocolate it make for a great combo in the room ! The chocolate from seed is simply huge, long colas everywhere, its great! The buds are a lot more compact and dense with a thick layer of trichomes all over. With an amazing sweet haze chocolate with hints of berries. The choice from clone is also quite a sight, she has fewer colas but the dubs on them are fat, a lot fatter than than the other. maybe due to less colas or the homey from start ? not sure. could also be a slightly different pheno. About a week ago I started noticing my plant was not 100% happy, yellowing of leaves, burnt patches and other strange symptoms, it fitted with potassium deficiency which I have treated but the general health of the plant was not improving greatly... Here are some picture for you to see: The leaves show strange signs as well as what looks like nutrient burn although I haven't overfed them or anything. I though it could be a root related issue as their drinking rate has diminished. I have been speaking to various people around who have all given me valuable advice, but I am still not 100% sure of the cause. Insects ? root aphids ? overwatering ? issue in the soil ? Root rot ? so many potential cause fit many of the symptoms but I can't pin point the exact one. I have been finding numerous insects in my soil as the white guy on the picture which I think might be a springtail larvae. Anyone encountered this guy before ? Or those symptoms ? Any input from you guys ? I am waiting for the soil to dry up nicely and will flush them heavily, that will help narrow down the possibilities. But the buds are still fattening up nicely so at least that is good, they almost look like they will be ready ahead of time which is strange as well as organic is not necessarily known for faster growth rate or at least not by several weeks.
  7. Mmmh alright , here is a bud from my Chocolate Haze at week 5. Can’t wait to see all the picture that will pop up !!! Post guys come on ! My eyes want to be delighted.
  8. Dude that is stunning! Can I have it ? It is called whorled phyllotaxy , or more commonly referred as a trifoliate plant, it basically is when a plant produces 3 or more leaves at the inter node. It can make for some pretty crazy huge plant , or at least fat fat buds, if everything goes well although they are known to grow out of it usually. Keep keep keep it !
  9. Last minute entry ... I present to you my Chocolate. The first and main one has been grown from seed, nice and fat, the second from clone, She isn't as pretty but I like her a lot and she is bearing some fat buds ! The clone is a month younger but they both have been flowering fro 32 days now. Both in Hempy, clone from early on in veg and seed from 2-3 weeks into flower. (out of interest, there IS a fat difference in growth between organic pot and organic hempy, hempy is lot more vigorous) Choco from seed : Side: Top: Bud: Choco from clone : Side : Top: Bud: Good luck to everyone! Saw some pretty sweet plants around ! Happy grow.
  10. Those plants are looking phenomenal ! Congrats, they look very promising. The frosting on that Sour Diesel is insane! What a sight! I have also boticed CBD strain to be slightly slower , or at least to appear like they are falling behind. I agree with you, it must be genetics. What are you main observation between your organic and hydro grow ?
  11. Here are some of the good bud shots in their normal size. Cheers.
  12. 22/10/18 - Lots have happened! : Day 30 Flower for the Chocolates and Dance World - Day 7 for 4 DW clones and 2 Choco clones Alright, Weekly update here we go ! Let's start with the youngest, The Clones. Since last time a few more Dance World clones have been added. They were taken from flowering plants so they will have to re veg. So I had something interesting happening a few days ago. When I take clones I usually let them soak for a while in a glass of water and fresh aloe juice. This time 2 of the clones had there stem soaking right in the middle of some aloe goo floating in the water. The next day when I took them out I noticed the 2 clones which were in the aloe had already developed a small root whereas the on that were soaking just next to the aloe goo floating, opposed to in it, did not generate root. Next time I take clone, and maybe you should try it too, I will put the goo around the stem and let it soak in water, next day the goo will be kept on the stem and transplanted. Aloe has regenerating properties, maybe if kept around the stem for long enough without suffocating it it could help. Anyway try it and let us know. I certainly will. What I did try during this transplant is plant the clone in a small piece of aloe and put that in a jiffy. I will let you know of the results. Since last week 4 DW clones have rooted and 2 Choco within 4 days. They have been transplanted in small pots and today, about a week later, 2 DW and 1 Choco were transplanted again in a larger pot. The roots were developing way too fast. The DW could have waited a bit longer but the Choco was already circling the pot, crazy root grow! My super soil is finally ready and looks beautiful, nice and dark with a lovely smell! They clones have been transplanted in it ! I am running an experiment with one DW in purchased 'supersoil' and one in homemade supercoil. It will be interesting to see the difference. Now for the flowering room, They are doing quite well, they are now at the beginning of their 5th week, day 30. The buds are swelling at a constant rate and the trichome production is quite a sight! The buds are getting super frosty and absolutely beautiful to watch! A sweet smell is slowly starting to fill the room. They were given a Super Powered Tea and Foliar feed since last update as I started to notice a slight K deficiency and an even slighter P. The foliar feed was made up of the general stuff with humic, fulvic and alfalfa SST, The super tea was a wide variety of amendments and what I call the ABC of SST which is Alfalfa, Corn and Barley. I made a few batches of each + cannabis SST and Aloe juice which I have frozen in cubes, They can be conserved and used anytime this way. I made it so that 1 cube is for 2L of water. Simply let them melt and throw it in your tea. I managed to get my hands on some Greenhousefeeding Bio-Bloom, any of you playing with this product ? any opinions/observation you can share ? I have top dressed the plant with half of the recommended dosage and after about a week I can see some slight fungus development and a few roots going to the topsoil to tap on the nutrients being converted there. I have also noticed my top soil being very crusty, like if you had a soil that is overdosing on magnesium. not sure if that is a result of the fungus, but it made me uncomfortable and I started breaking it away, don't want my plant to suffocate... The plants are reacting very well to the tea and I imagine the top dress as well. At the moment , considering they are in hempy buckets, I water them every 3 days, This time they took 4,5L before I saw the tinniest run off, pretty crazy as pots are 10L... . I will have to water them every 2 days soon. Oh and the DW has also been moved into a Hempy. Strange to transplant halfway through flowering I know, but the Choco boomed after moving in it, hopefully DW does too. Temp wise still a nice steady 24-25 in the room with an RH averaging the 50%. Here is the Dance World (30 Days Flo): She just has way too many leaves haha. Bushy girl. But a nice Canopy though. The buds are quite far behind the chocolate even though she is suppose to flower 1-2 weeks earlier, maybe she will have a sudden boost. As for the Chocolate from Seed (30 Days Flo) : Long tall plant eating up space quick, just beautiful ! This girl must grow massive in outdoor, might try to pop a clone outside. A good canopy as well that doesn't fit in the frame, my bad.. Nice tight long colas! And the buds, oh the buds... Looking good ! And last but not Least the Choco from Clone (30 Days Flo) : Not many colas, 3 big one and a few small one, but surely they will grow huge !! Already a noticeable difference between the clone and seed. She is not super photogenic, but in real life she is a beaut! Canopy isn't fantastic but it is on purpose to allow light to go all along those long colas. The socks, 100% cotton adidas, very comfy. Nice big Colas And the buds, a lot more photogenic ;) So yeah thats about it for now. Thanks for watching and I hope all you guys have a sweet day ! I will add some close up in better quality for your eye's pleasure. Those are all shrunk to fit in the post. Grow well. Trying' to be arty ;)
  13. Hey @RampageZA, Sounds like a good plan. Grow all of them ;) Your pot choice is great, moving from a 10 to 40 is a big change but your plant will enjoy that, try and put them in their final pot a week or so before you think they will switch. I have noticed a much better stretch and general growth if they had time to colonize their new home beforehand. The more root the better! Obviously you want to keep in mind how big your plants can get, as outdoor can produce some tall giants if not managed. As for FF soil, it is quite light on nutrient in general. If you plan on using the soil straight, it might come up short. You will have to supplement with organic teas, bottled nutrients or both. You can look at topdressing your pots but this is a much slower and not as efficient method. A few items you can look at : -Quick, easy, expensive - Talborne, Biobizz, Greenhousefeed, pre made fertilizer -Takes a little longer, more research, cheap - amendments such as Kelp meal, Blackstrap molasses, Alfalfa meal, Insect grass, Bone meal, Guano, Soft rock phosphate, Manure, etc... and all that can also be used in making teas I have successfully used their soil but it was layered and spiked. In addition teas were fed very 2 weeks or so. It had a lot of extra help. Hope that helps.
