Hi folks, So it's been a while since I last posted about my grow but I thought better late than never (and also skipping most of the veg part is more entertaining) This is my 3rd indoor grow and I have learnt a lot from my last 2 grows from fellow forum members. Special shout out to @The Grass Baas @The_StonedTrooper @PsyCLown @Prom @Bay Seeds @Stinger96 @GGG @GreenGrow Garden Route @Weskush for all their guidance and support with the previous grow. I have learnt a lot from you guys and will attempt to apply it with this grow. What went wrong previously? I neglected my plants and encountered the following: - Too much N (nute frequency overall) - Not enough airflow - Not enough defoliation - And a one shoe fits all approach (which doesn't work well with several different strains) What am I doing differently this time round? - Every watering doesn't need to be a feed (let the plant tell you when they need something) - Each strain will have their own frequency of feeding and quantity thereof - Airflow/Circulation is key - Defoliate, defoliate, defoliate... we don't need no nodes stealing energy from the nodes that we want to create into big fat ass nugs - And some IPM for the issues that might catch you off guard So what am I working with for this grow? I decided on a mix of old school variants with some local and international breeders filling the gap. I am running 4 strains of feminised seeds from Old School Genetics courtesy of @Golden-Goose , 2 strains from Motherland Genetics (hope the drama on the photos wasn't an indication of the quality of genetics that they supposedly produce) and lastly some 2 super tasty InHouse strains courtesy of some cuttings from my man @PsyCLown. IPM measures with wood cider vinegar courtesy of @Thrive Strains in play: Old school genetics - White Bubblegum Old school genetics - White Afghan Skunk Old school genetics - Super Silver Haze 98 Old school genetics - OSG Cheese Motherland genetics - Purple Dosidos Motherland genetics - Sunset Sherbet S1 InHouse - Blunicorn InHouse - Jelly Breath Started of with germination on the 28th of September with a 100% germination success rate. I normally go for the 3 topping 8 cola mainline but this time round I decided to do a 2 top manifold mainline which some people call a flux mainline. (Hoping to decrease veg time) I also installed a oscillating fan from the roof of the tent to aid in circulation. Today was the last clean up in the veg cycle and I took clones of each for a buddy to keep for us to see which one we want to keep and work with... I am about 2 weeks from flip to flower and this is the current situation... Here we go with some pictures to tie it up...

I am very excited to see where this grow goes

Have a lekke weekend! ☝

The Jack here and Bubalicious I yielded 2 decently frosty females about revegged, should be stable for the flip next week. Jack Herer is growing nicely some of the Tomato’s and cherry tomato’s. and always lekke when it’s about time to flip time.

My brother uses him. Seems like he builds up a relationship with his clients via WhatsApp. He also connect's clients with similar ailments ( back pain and depression in my brothers case) if they want to chat about various remedies. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk

Hi @Smelly Joe I can vouch for https://cannabisoilsouthafrica.co.za, they have been making a variety of oils for sometime now and come in many different delivery methods, capsules, straight oil, tinctures. Unfortunately they are based in JHB and not CT, but they will be able to help you and delivery is fast.

I do the best I can, and if i managed to help anyone, I am super happy, thank you.

Good to hear @DamDave, thats what I like about them, is they interested to know more about you and not just sell you a product. And what better to get feedback from people suffering from the same conditions as you are. I like this business.

*knods head, wanting to do a cool shake but don't know how to look cool, so going with the social distancing excuse Howsit 420SA, I'm not at all new to the community, but fresh on this forum, and after posting my initial introduction I thought I'd drop a topic into General Discussion to get my social wheels rolling. What I would like to present to you is something my mates and I have always referred to as the 'God Reality', and although admittedly it's more impactful when you're a bit out of yourself, I believe it warrants some open minded thought under any conditions. The theory goes that a massive majority of those whom have been on prominent psychedelic trips, especially those who are more experienced in them, and particularly those able to (or believing themselves to be able to) cross dimensions seem to have a few fundamental truths in common: They encounter a being or beings, very often referred to as The Mechanical Elves, but also as angels, demons, spirits, or even "aliens" (I don't believe they have any specific form, and I myself experience them as vibrational geometric beings) and report having truths unkown to them otherwise revealed or witnessing events / matter not available to them under different circumstances. (Quick Google search will provide much deeper insight) They report great revelations of their true core identity's existence, of the physical world around them, and our place in this ever expanding dimension, very, very often reporting the same foundational structure (or lack thereof) across borders, socio-economic classes and time itself throughout history. And by far most importantly, that this, everything around you, is irrelevant. That this is the illusion (what some mistake as the simulation). That everything you have ever thought, experienced, stressed over or obsessed about is redundant. That this dimension is but a microscopic drop in the true reality. All of this will end, but you, the real you will not. That brings us to the potential tragic truth, that if it is indeed so, we are being deprived of, robbed of participating in and having an awareness of true existence. And before anyone says it, no, I am not advocating a permanent state of intoxication. These levels of transcendence are attainable through very trained and particular breathing, yoga, meditation, astral projection and more, and the physical would not be if it did not have it's place and purpose in this grander scheme. Going deeper, we all realize that things are hidden from the general population - this is a truth. But what if it goes further than just "those in the know, knowing"? What if this knowledge (the translation of occult is "hidden from the eye") is purposefully suppressed and only shared, integrated and developed within the ruling elite? This would make allot of sense in regards to private societies preserving this knowledge for future generations of those deemed worthy of such enlightenment. (Yes, I am an English Constitution Freemason. No, I have not ascended to a degree or order even slightly alluding to this, and no researching and talking about this theory does not conflict with the Inner Guard's heeding). It's a really interesting thing to play with in the back of your mind, and there are so many bits and bobs you can connect to it and dissect, from the use of hallucinogens throughout religion and folklore, to this being the real reason we don't have safe, controlled psychedelic centers available, to the prohibition of cannabis and ketamine being smoke and mirrors for the true prohibition of these chemicals, to the "hush-hush" culture of today and an endless possibility of others. So, that's my first contribution. I sincerely hope it's coherent enough, I decided to take 10 minutes to type this out while waiting for my lunch to be delivered. Love and Respect, WolfHaze

And the forest from her cuttings almost done. Some spots of WPM and lots of spider mite damage. Will try a budwash but prob chuck it. What you all think? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sorry ^^ Puppies.. amazing how much they can keep you busy.. OK.. and played some New World with friends.. but the Lemon OG Haze went on growing ^^ The 12 plants are on a 1x1 area.. please ignore the Slurricane, is just parked at the side (1.2x1.2 tray) as I have no room in my dark area. Will move in 3 days and doesn't count towards the result in any way Lemon OG Haze are all mainlined to 16 main colas.. the outside ones just had other ideas about growing speed.. still middle flowering. All need support to keep standing. My Gelato (Orange Sherbet (Auto) & Thin Mint Cookie (Photo)) is after 6 weeks more or less done, fading hard. Haze I have set for first week December.

Yeah upon reflection you were spot on with the too much N observation so I had to shout out this time round dialed it down and it seems to work proper thus far

Having a birthday braai today and I take a look at my plants and see a brown spot on a leaf. No glasses on I take a closer look only to see a small brown grasshopper jump off. Arrrrgh.

Let's go Thank you for the mention, You got a sick line up there brother, and going to rock this grow.

Nice, I can already see the stupid In House stretch on the Jelly Breath has thrown a slight curve ball and you've topped it quite hard. Excited to see how everything turns out. Sent from my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Tapatalk

Lekker boetie! Laat hy jol

Thanx for the help. Wil contact them aswell. Another member dm'd me a contact in CT and I have used them so far. I have a few friends up in the Gauteng area that I will pass these onto aswell @Chris Jay

Greetings to everyone on the forum, or at the very least to those reading this post, I'm not going to write up an entire essay on myself as chances are I'll be repeating some of it more than once in the future, of experience presents us with any evidence. What I will divulge is that I go by the pseudonym Wolf in certain circles and the psedonym Haze in certain others. In fact, I will bet crop on it that some of you on this forum will recognize me as Haze quite quickly. I hence decided to present myself as WolfHaze and offer myself in entirety to the forum. Been in the cannabis industry for 12 years now. In fact, I was one of the original cannabis oils / capsules / balms etc mainstream commercial producers in South Africa. National presence, with health shops as stockists and agents in every province. Long, long before there were 30 or 40 good looking websites to choose from, I ran one of the OG professional looking, medicinal use visitor friendly online stores. I'm not mentioning this for clout, but rather simply to avoid having to bring it up later to explain my background for a topic or opinion's context. Other than that the only other intel I feel is of interest right now is that I'm your standard late 20s South African gent, trying to live my best life, ever incorporating the helping hand of endocannabinoid therapy in various forms through it all. If there's anything else, remember children, you will never know if you don't ask! Unless you're an investigative journalist, then stay away, please. WolfHaze

A different pheno...

3 weeks from flip. Trichome development will start in earnest at about 5 weeks, and then they will continue to pack on the resin right up until harves. Both parents have this trait. Same with the weight. They will kick into high gear at around 5 weeks and continue to pack it on right until the end.

Taller pheno of OSG Cheese at 6 days from flip. Currently it has a sour candy smell. That will probably change. The shorter pheno I have is more earthy.

I still think it's crazy that these are growing in my bedroom! I have some burnt tips, I'm trying to find the right dose of nutes, the BioBizz schedule is a tad strong. Sorting out and learning as I go. A few pictures I've taken this evening

Hello humble gardeners, I must update the new findings on the some of these plants that received the snip over the past few days, some due to being male and one because she was devoured by the dog, well most got defoliated pretty severely by this mut. The Crazy Hazey was the unfortunate victim, but did clone her. Anyways, I put up a fence and will be done with that. onto the good news. The DQ x Slurri - ended up with 2 females So they went into 2 x 20l pot to hopefully flower/ or reveg, not counting on it but made clones so its a win. of the Jack herer and Bubalicious, I think i've got 1 of each to choose from that haven't shown signs yet, others I confirm males and one has gone composting for now. Indoors the plants have started their training, and they seem to be adjusting to their new surrounding which is good, they got some microbes and water and then plain water, will be installing the blumat once they start growing properly.
