another week later, because of the crazy loadshedding times I did a KHCO2 treatment, hopefully will be last before harvest time. what's the feeling on KHCO2 within 3 weeks of harvest? should I bud wash or no? Frosted Apricot Super Cheese Chernobyl Blueberry Hashplant French Macaron - she wins star of the show with just her terps alone very very offensive smell. I have a pair of leather fellies, the smell I get from this plant is the same smell those fellies give off after a looong hard day of working and sweating in them on the farm in the blatant sun! wondering if the "french" part of the name was inspired by the smell of horrible body odor. blessed weekend for all

another week later still just running on clean water. though next watering will be second microbe inoculation and first feed of 0.5ml/L biogrow, the biogrow is not to exactly meant to feed the plant here, more of a source of food for the microbes as it has molasses in it with a bunch of other goodies for the microbes to snack on while they find their new homes in the rhizosphere. also slapped down the scroggy so I can play with them, can always move the net, I just find it easier and less time consuming than taking each individual plant out for LST.

You don't get much information from just one seed of a strain. Except the strain is mega stable and has no pheno swings inside you get a very limited view of the strain. And to Nirvana, if you buy a pack of.. isn't it usually 5?.. you get one free seed (they usually offer feminized freebees, you say in the offer to please send you a auto freebee and they will change) and any seed not sprouting, you contact Jenna and she will replace it. Service at Nirvana SA is second to none.

Outdoor grown Beach Bum X Holy Cherry Dry Sift 120 micron - The terps were similar and I really couldn't tell the difference in trichome size from either 3 plants so ended up running everything together. Literally had to do the 120 as I don't have a 90 atm and I couldn't get it to go through the 75 ........

Hello All, Hmmmmm .. off to a rocky-ish start. The Northern Lights, which germinated first, seems to be fading and I don't think he's going to make it. He was first out of germination and first out of the soil but has yet to lift his head up. The inside of his baby greenhouse and top soil is very, very dry, so I gave him literally one extremely tiny spray of water in case it might be that. As far as I'm aware there's literally nothing else I can do, so let's see what happens. The Blue Mystic which was planted a day after the NL is doing the best and is looking fine and happy. The Blue Cheese, which was planted first with the NL, is also happy-ish, but showing a little bit of yellow colourating on that very first round-ish leaf. Guess it must be a case of the soil being too nutrient rich for him? Not much I can do about it now, we'll just have to ride it out and hope he comes right. The Blueberry Kush, which is a very late starter and was last out of germination, is out above the ground but has yet to shed his little pod helmet. It was also the biggest seed of the lot, for what it's worth. Here's hoping at least 3/4 make it though these first rounds, because frankly, at this point I don't think the Northern Lights is going to survive. Pity, I thought he was going to be one of the best for this climate. On a side, note, does anyone in Cape Town sell single seeds? Nirvana only sells in packs of 4, and I don't really want to buy that many. In case 1 or two don't make it I'd like to plant again as soon as humanly possible as this is not only an experiment in the weather/outdoor situation but also with how the different strains perform against one another. And, how well I can get them to grow using the exact same methodology. I would like to take the 1-2 best performers out of this lot and put them in subsequent lots going forward. Potentially anyway. @DamDaveI seem to remember you mentioning some kind of 'lucky packet'? D

Plants are officially flipped.

Indoors its going ok but one of the three old school cheese autoflowers died after the second sts cycle. She just went limp and died in like three days. Never seen a plant die that fast. The other one im spraying didnt burn at all. Back 2 are the other old school cheese autos Traded my T1000 and GMO cookies for Black wolf from one culture and Black cherry punch from idk. Both hunted. Black wolf has these waxi leaves and it will thrive over the summer outdoors. black cherry punch. Freekshow, Gozer OG winner from the solfire gardens seedpack, and the bigger one is blue cheese from cannaclone. Upstairs it going great, just chicken compost and smooth sailing so far. Just spaying margaret roberts and hoping to avoid powdery mildew. Its late in the season for outdoors.

Maybe you're right, maybe you're wrong... My apologies @Bay Seeds, I didn't mean to be so blunt. I'm all for DIY and on the cheap... But just because you can, doesn't mean you should. I have tried many times in my grow experience to grow with cfls... High powered ones, low powered ones... They all suck compared to what else you can get on the cheap nowadays. So again... Maybe I was out of place and too quick to put you down.... And I apologize for that... But I will not apologize for my counter arguments for the cheap floodlights if cheap is the way you have go about things at the moment.

So he didn't make it. But a friend gave me another NL seed, hopefully this one will fair better. Please join me in honouring his memory:
