So for those of you who are interested, I started a thread in "indoor growing" called
Mephisto Gear Under Geyapex P-6 LED
It's 3 Skywalker, 3 Heisenberg Special and 1 cheese freebie. Got this new light with 6 COB's. Should be fun to see how the Mephisto gear fairs under this light. Anyway hope you all are doing well.

Day 80. These two are doing really well on the balcony. Two things to note. First is that the conditions they're in are quite tough. Extremely windy which makes wind chill a factor of sorts.
Second, these two SL are right beside two SIPs that have tomatoes in them that have had powdery mildew for the past 6 weeks and I'm losing the battle. Conditions have been perfect for pm this summer with all the rain and lower temps. Therefore, very resistant to PM.
Can anyone chime in on # of days seed to harvest?

Hi everyone. The UK bank holiday has buggered up me knowing what day of the week it is, so this late weekly update is day 49 for Sour Liver1 (on the left) and day 43 Sour Liver 2.
Both have stopped stretch now, and I don't know if it is due to the squat bushy nature of the plants or the fact I have 12 bulbs spread evenly in the cab, but both plants seem to have naturally grown into a scrog type even canopy. I have done very little training at all. My cab is now pretty much full horizontally and I have about 5 inches between tops and the bulbs.
As per Mephisto recommendations I did a very light trimming of the lower, below canopy fluffy stuff and any older lower leaves that were not getting light. It has made watering a lot easier as I can actually get to the soil now, I had growth literally on the soil surface before, the plants were that squat.
Both girls have trics easily visible to the naked eye now. SL1 is showing some slight signs of what I think is K deficiency - some of her older lower leaves are getting slight burn on edges, slight yellowing between veins and yellowy brownish spots. I may have left her a week too long before giving full strength bloom nutes. SL2 has been fed exactly the same mix and is fine, but is 6 days younger which makes me think SL1 was late getting them. If I am wrong about the deficiency please let me know, I am happy to be given advice.
A group shot and a couple of close ups showing the trichs developing for you all. Taken with my phone so may not be perfectly focused if blown up on a pc screen. I need to start charging my camera batteries before I need it!

Harvest: Day 85
These were started indoors and moved outside at Day 19. Grown in pro mix hp with Botanicare Pure Blend Pro Grow only, at half strength.
Environment is important for this grow. My balcony gets adequate sun but is in a wind tunnel. This also drops ambient temperatures.
The two plants were grown directly beside a SIP that had tomatoes that were ravaged by PM. This summer has been terrible with low temperatures and rain. Perfect for pM. The sour livers were unaffected.
Root structure was disappointing and I attribute that to the poor summer.
They're about 24" tall but really stinky. Sort of a sweet skunky smell. I'll give a smoke report after the cure.

Days 59 for SL1 on the left and 53 for SL2 on the right. Still got at least 3 weeks to go at a guess.
They smell, but no more than any other plant I have grown. I was expecting a real 'knock you over when you open the cabinet' type smell when I read the description from Mephisto in the early days of this thread. Anybody else had similar or will they start to really stink up in the next week or so?
Realised the K deficiency was down to me. I had been feeding a 50/50 mix of half strength grow and bloom feeds during the transition from veg to bloom and stopped the grow feed after a week or so, but for the next 3 or 4 feeds I was still feeding the bloom feed at the same half strength even though they were hungry. Once I realised what I was doing
I upped it to the correct strength and the problem stopped getting worse, I am just left with the damaged leaves now. I can be such a bellend at times!
Nearly broke my back laying on a concrete garage floor taking the upwards pic of SL2. The things you do when you are a grower!
Droopy leaves are because they are due a watering.

I'm liking the mega crop too. I'm using it on my current grow and everything looks great. No deficiencies, just beautiful plants
