Thanks Guys, i have no intention of pulling out for any reason! she will go till she is done and we will see what she gives me

Day 7 of Week 15 Update Got nothing today

So these girls and boy are just going into flower. 6 females left, and a male chosen from 8. Not going to be many seeds from this run. More of a poke and prod to see overall F3 outcomes.

Got that pink fade that make you wet lol

I tried those when I 1st started growing, the 100w cost about R110 and 50w R60 from the store nearby. They can work for Veg but that's about it, all of them I had eventually blew after 2 months and they get very hot, you can burn yourself if not careful even having a fan running on it didn't help much. I probably spent R2000 on these type of lights, ac cobs and "600w" blurple LEDs and they just didnt do it when you flower and you end up disappointed, rather save for a decent LED.

So I do not want to start a debate as to whether one should or should not get it. So will be locking this thread. If you vote, it will be anonymous - other users will not be able to see who voted for which option.

@Prom, @The_StonedTrooper, @GGG, @Pants, @donnob Thanks for the comments guys, definitely been an exciting 2 days now. All 3 looking pretty good, only the 1 with some pretty sad looking first leaves. I'm wondering if the Evironoc did that to them, possibly got some on the leaves while watering. I don't know. New growth looks healthy so I'm not concerned about it any more. Here's to a new week!

Alright okes! What a shocker of a plant!! She is still doing Her weird shit and doesn't seem to be slowing down on the pistols! Not a fade or a brown pistol in sight - she truly has me baffled. She is the only plant that's being weird in my flower tent... And I still have no answer as to why...

Looking good man! Now we just need to get those leaves a little greener as @Prom mentioned, there should be enough nutrient in the soil to sort her out for a little while. Those leaves look mighty perky though, good job! As happy as a pig seedling in s#@! FF Premium Classic

What can I say lol, I keep it exciting

yea no issues , no burnt tips or any premature yellowing, no pests and no PM, watered and fed regularly - just exhibiting all the signs of a light leak. which is also weird, because light leaks generally only cause the branch the light falls on to be weird, but this is the entire plant, every stem is dong this lol. @GGG, definitely foxtailing, but as for the heat source im not sure...i raised the light a bit as that was a previous concern, and there are no fans or heaters near her. @PsyCLown LOL i was also thinking that, the buds that have formed are nice and dense, so if the fattening happens, there will be some mad colas here

Have fun endlessly staring at your younglings wondering what else you can do to make it better . Patience is born...

Exodus Kush at 61 days.

The price is pretty steep for the PineLabs and I think the shipping threw me off a little too even though it seems minor in the bigger scheme of things. It's like you're already groaning about the big investment but you're still all in and wiling to bite the bullet but then they smash you with a shipping that just pushes your mind into a different direction, "the straw that broke the camel's back" scenario. I understand the quality of the PineLabs looks amazing but I think I should be aiming for a good all-rounder and bang for buck is part of that criteria for me. The BudBox looks like good value for money, despite the little nuances that piss you off

The two evicted males turned out to be fine specimens.. They are days away from dropping their load. I will collect some pollin for some inhouse micro breeding for myself and then compost them. They look exactly the same but the DQxS turned purple and the DQ stayed green.. The Grape Gorilla Main Cola is still going strong.. As the RH dropped with the add of the heater fan I noticed it taking strain.. So I really hope it makes it..

Some frosted blue gelato in you face check you checking this frosted biatchhh

If there's a limit on how much 1 should post here, admin, please let me know. But I'm so happy seeing this little one in all its glory this afternoon

Howsit bro! I have used a mammoth tent in the past, a small one, quality is pretty decent but mine also had some light leaks on the zipper. If you properly line up the zipper strip in the inside(not sure if you know what i am referring too) then it solves the issue. Didn't really come with any extras either. I have recently bought a mars hydro tent, I see they have a new version available which is the one I got. I love this tent. Feels super solid and much better than the Mammoth. When I was looking I was deciding between, Mammoth, Mars and Secret Jardin and BudBox SJ was too expensive for me so I went with Mars over the mammoth as the Mars had extra height. I am so glad I went with the new spec Mars tent, I really love it. Came with 2 floor liners(Don't know if I just got lucky), a patch repair kit and a hangable pouch for inside the tent and some awesome stickers lol I also like that the mars has metal connectors vs the plastic ones that come with the mammoth. I have no advice on the budbox though, was also an option for me but could not get any solid recommendations so decided against taking a chance.

Hey @PsyCLownhope you well. So for the organics I'm mainly using RO water in a 50L flexi tank. Once a week I ll turn the system off and let the plants drink whatever water is in the tray for a day I will than top feed them with some dirty hands bio boost and bio nitro, with Silica dosage also once a week and separate day from the Bio boost & Nitro. I'm not sure how the silica will mix with the bio boost and bio nitro so I decided to do it on a separate day. Will ammend again before the flip and continue using RO water in the res for organics For synthetics im using silica, umyas cal mag, and the NutriGold range (Previously Known as Nutriplex) changing the res once a week

More here,

That could be some Thai sativa dominant genes pulling through there... Is she healthy otherwise?

I wouldn't flush with plain water, you could flush with the correct calmag dose and then give a heavy feed of normal nutes a day or two later and get some run off.

@Hooper Lights are not something you want to skimp on, it is worth saving up and getting something proper from the beginning!

@donnob I have not really looked to see whether there is any difference in temps between the Budbox and Mammoth tent. The Budbox comes with metal corners and the polesall clip and lock into place - very nice and easy to setup and the poles are powder coated black and are thicker than what the Mammoth and Secret Jardin came with. I have seen the Pinelab tents for sale, but recall them being really expensive. Would be curious as to how they compare to a Budbox for instance. Never seen one in person. The things which frustrate me on my Budbox are mainly the pull ties, it is not as easy to pull them as the one material seems to be a grippy material. Not the end of the world as it is not something I adjust often. Then the zip to open the right side completely can be a bit frustrating to work with - I see there is a metal zip version and a plastic zip version. The plastic zip version is easier to work with compared to the metal zip version. When I say frustrating to work with, to unzip is easy and to zip up is easy, it is aligning both sides of the tent to be able to start zipping it up. For some reason the plastic zip is just easier to get aligned.

I have a Mars hydro and Mammoth tent. happy with both. No issues. Pine Lab tents are top of the range if you are looking to invest. Zephyr Farms sells them.

This is great info also, so it basically this is going to come down to the minor difference of the 2 tents then seeing that the build quality on both is pretty good. @The_StonedTrooper and @PsyCLown, they claim the white reflective of the BudBox runs cooler than conventional mylar, have you noticed this at all with your tents?

Some random shots to conclude this diary. Still curing so I haven't sampled any yet. GZ is getting some smell back in the jar after having zero smell after drying. The lemon cheese STANK from mid flower all the way to now, you could smell it outside my front door while it was drying in the bathroom. Gorilla Zkittlez after drying for 10 days, just before trim and jar. Ended up with 48g. Franco's Lemon Cheese just after harvest. Dried, I got 50g of decent sized tight buds and 40g leafy tiny buds

that is a fast bounce back ^^ let them dry, then go 2ml per liter grow right away.. they need some more green Nice job, you saved em

Nice! Let's see how it goes. What nutes are being used for the two?

I have a Budbox tent (same as the one you listed) and it is awesome! Overall the best tent I have used to date, not perfect though. A few things do frustrate me but not the end of the world. A friend has a Mars tent and the quality seems good and he really likes it. The GT Hydro tents were not great quality to begin with. Mammoth isn't bad, but I feel they are overpriced for the quality. I was disappointed with mine as it has light leaks via the zip from factory and small, skinny poles which rust easily. Secret Jardin tents I had were not bad either, but there is a difference between the Hydro Shoot series and the Dark Street series. The latter being the better tent and a bit pricier, comes with some nice features but I prefer my Budbox overall. I'd take Secret Jardin over Mammoth if either were a consideration.

Some real nice colors starting to happen here. Her bud is feeling nice n thick, the other Tortoni is a bit soft n fluffy feeling. Saturday she will be week 7*

Thought this picture had a cool story. Picked up Mr Acton on the way to the Cannabis expo last weekend, he had already rolled a tarrie joint, check that bend. We went straight to aaptwaks table to learn some skills. So we have Mr 8 joints a day on national news, mixing with 3.2 seconds joint roller. How is this for a mad match. Before Learning to roll After

I have one fast finisher and then I have at least a 10 weeker. No signs of slowing down yet.

Monday 16th August: week 7 of flower. No complaints this side. Lots of trichomes around and getting very sticky.

Thanks for the response dude. Appreciate it. So currently I am using the Hard water Micro as I live in central PTA. Well that's the recommendation as apparently we have harder water here (when I test my tap it says 0.2EC and the PH is usually like 6.8). This depends though because the PH does fluctuate a little. I definitely think that the one strain seems to be handling it alot better than the other purely because of genetics. I moved away from buying bags of ready made soils as it wasn't consistent and I would get a hot soil now and then. Also I wanted to save money. I see alot of the guys sell ready made coco perlite mixes which then cost the exact same as the living soils. So for me I feel like it's a bit of daylight robbery. Either way. Just trying to become better with the coco and understanding it. Great tip to use a little more micro and possibly my buffering might be too low. I just followed what they said on the pack. Here is an attached screenshot. Seems as though the buffering would be the same as the maintenance. I have attached a screenshot from GThydro and I am pretty sure the Solid calmag from Hydroponic.co.za is the same

I am not great at diagnosing deficiencies as I struggle with colour a bit. When I use to buffer my coco, I would get the calmag solution a lot higher than 0.3 EC I would aim for around 1.2 EC to 1.6 EC to let the coco sit in to ensure proper cation exchange. Perhaps it was a bit excessive. I recall someone mentioning they used an EC of around 0.8 when buffering their coco and never had issues. To me, 0.3 EC to buffer seems a bit low. So it is possible that is part of the issue. As for why it is affecting only one of the strains is a bit weird but could be due to the demand for certain nutes which the one strain has vs the other strain. You could try add a little more micro to the mix as that contains some the calcium and some magnesium too. You could add a bit extra calmag as well (I think it was 1g or 3g per 10L for maintenance) to the feed if you feel the coco may not be buffered properly. Now a days I just purchase already mixed and buffered coco, much easier for me. Are you using the soft or hard version of the GHE nutes and is it normal tap water? Filtered water? Borehole?

@The_StonedTrooper Christaan Loffler is awesome! Up there with Stimming IMO. One of the newer sessions Stimming has on YouTube. I recall watching this and thinking it was pretty cool and interesting. The way he puts it all together and what he uses for sounds etc. is what stood out for me. Then Stephan Bodzin also has some amazing stuff, loved his "Power of Ten" album.

Spent some time going through HD's of tunes this weekend. All parties featured are cool as fuck!

By the looks of the general music preferences, this might be a bit heavy for most. This band was the pioneers of Death Metal and still remains one of the best Death Metal bands that existed. This one is for the Death Metal fans. Fuck yea!!

For all the 80's grunge heads

Happy weekend. be safe out there.

I really love this video and the song suits it 100 percent in my opinion. Oh how I miss it!!! Wish I could fly again... PS watch the guy at around 2 mins and 50 seconds, is it not enough that you are wingsuiting??? Crazeeee

I had the song suddenly in my head... and is stuck there now

Tina and a Guitar was 16 when she played this.. if somebody likes to play, will enjoy this, if not already knows it
