  1. Alright, so the experience with the Gorilla Zkittlez and powdery mildew has been enlightening. It appears that for the most part, the PM gets as far as the sugar leaves and then kind of gets "trapped" by the sticky trichomes. To my delight, it seems that none of the actual buds have been compromised thus far. It is getting a bit much plucking every heavily affected leaf from the plants, I can see the plants starting to stress further. The game plan is to take the tops off tomorrow evening, same as the ZxP. Then I will try to push for another week as well as pluck as many affected leaves between now and then as possible.

  2. I have taken the tops off of the ZxP plants at 7 weeks flowering. Trichomes are all milky and I can't really spot any clear bulbs. In the past, I've always gone 8+ weeks on the ZxP but I've opted for a staggered harvest on the ZxP for now. I will let the lower branches go for another week. The bottom branches are nicely spread across the net now, so there's that. Not losing the tops to bud rot for me is just an absolute win right now. As for the Gorilla Zkittlez, it's a world war going on there with the powdery mildew. The milk and paper towels solution aren't working anymore so I am just plucking leaves now, and the stress is starting to show on the plants. I am going to also take the tops off of the Gorilla Zkittlez in a day or two from now. The bottom buds are definitely not as developed as the ZxP, so I am going to have to see as I go as to what I will do. I'll do a detailed post on the Gorilla Zkittlez tonight. ZxP
  3. I took some closeup pics tonight to get a lay of the land. Gotta say, the ZxP is looking mighty fine. Gorilla Zkittlez got a little ways to go still. I think I may just take the tops off of the ZxP soon and let the lower branches then develop a bit more. ZxP - 6 weeks, 3 days Gorilla Zkittlez - 6 weeks
  4. Imma be honest fam, pm be fighting me hard this run, but I'm catching every cheap shot it's throwing. I'm like an autistic chimpanzee wiping away any build up with milk and paper towels on any surface I find it. So far, pm clusters have been pretty light and not well established and exclusively on leaves only and mostly on the Gorilla Zkittlez. Just now, I did spot some very very minor traces of pm on the ZxP. I am guessing it's exposer from the Gorilla Zkittlez. I haven't seen any problems with my precious buds. I've got this pain under control with the monitoring so far, but after this run I am going to adapt my setup slightly. Firstly, cheers Gorilla Zkittlez you bloody pm magnet. I am also moving my setup into another room that is one floor up and not directly accessible to the outside. The new room will also have an aircon, which will be great for next summer. I have also come to the conclusion that my scrog net game is absolute dog shit. The plants grew way past the net and have again done the flop of dicks. At least they are still in view this time and not hanging low by the pots again. This will also be addressed in the next run, I'm thinking of doing some topping again and flattening up the canopy. Levels, my man. Gotta think levels. With regards to the ZxP and Gorilla Zkittlez, I'm thinking of reaching the standard flower time of 8 weeks and not hit that extra week of ripen that I usually do. This will be in two weeks time, which going off of the looks of the plants the ZxP looks like it's going to start ripening from now and the Gorilla Zkittlez will maybe start it's ripen in another week. So I think I will harvest the ZxP first in two weeks, then let the Gorilla Zkittlez sit for a bit and make a chop soon after. I've also been thinking of maybe just taking the main colas off first and let the lower branches chill a bit seeing as they are the least affected in general. I also notice at times that even when the main colas are mooi ripe, the popcorn nugs that aren't as close to the lights don't look as ripe, but somehow always through the curing process end up sorta kinda similar. I'd like to play around with this idea. Oh ja, and the KmintZ are lekker. Just vibing. Now for some pictures. ZxP Gorilla Zkittlez KmintZ Veg Tent
  5. I got my Nirvana seeds from them, they shouldn't have a problem replacing your seeds, although I think they will be just as surprised as you because I don't think they sell any regular/male seeds
  6. I believe it is in the material that they use. The way that I understand it, most plastic is actually breathable, albeit at a very low rate in most cases. For example, if you leave a full 2L Coke bottle lying around for a year or two it will eventually be flat, that's because the CO2 actually escapes through the plastic slowly over time, but the gaps in the plastic are not enough for any liquid to pass through so you will always have a full bottle. They do the same with these bags. The gaps in the plastic is just enough to allow a certain amount of moisture in, and also small enough to keep a certain level of moisture trapped. But I am willing to be wrong, that's just how I reasoned it.
  7. Even if your meter were 100% accurate, you'd want to be hitting more like 700 umol when in flower, so you've got half the power you need right now. For one plant, you'd be much better off with using this 120W QB than the flood lights. If it's too hot for your liking, maybe mod it and attach a PC fan to it. I am sure someone here has done it before and can guide you.
  8. Looks like you got a nice setup, outdoor plants also looking healthy What you gonna do with that cupboard?
  9. I suggest maybe starting a grow diary here and outline your whole grow and methods. That will not only help you troubleshoot but also give us an opportunity to help correct any mistakes.
  10. That's looking pretty crispy. If you haven't flipped to flower yet, I would keep it in veg and maybe try regrow some of the lost vegetation. If you are already in flower, then it's not looking too good.

    EXTREME SPORTS

    Found this great video analysis on the Adesanya vs Robert Whittaker 2 fight. I didn't catch a lot of what Adesanya was doing but this video really highlights both fighters' skills.
  12. I took from all of them, but as a betting man, I took more of the one I think will be the banger.
  13. KmintZ clones have been taken! 15 in total. I have also cleaned up the KmintZ/ZxP plants and left between 3-4 solid branches from the tops. The internodal spacing is looking good on one of the KmintZ, I've taken the majority of the clones from this one. There are two KmintZ that seem to be more on the stretchy side. Lastly, I have done a final top feed with preflower nutes before turning the reservoir on over the coming weekend.
  14. They make their own coco too. The two part is probably optimized for their own coco but the standard tri part works like a bomb for most coco mixes.
  15. I think Qure are the real deal, laboratory standard stuff. I've seen a report before by them, was pretty in-depth from what I remember.
  16. As long as you or a mate got a power drill and the right wall fittings you should be good to go. Otherwise, try Googling for handymen. If not that, go to your nearest Mica/Builders Warehouse/Chamberlands and ask one of the dudes that always sits at the gates with sign boards displaying their various services.
