Great update man. Is the SSH the tallest one with two main colas? The trainwreck looks real nice. You're gonna have some fantastic bud soon, nice job
yeah man, thanks, you can't miss that SSH with the two colas. My other two SSH have around 4-5 branches after the FIM and I have had to raise them up they are so squat. I'm favoring the tall two branch version/pheno at the moment though.

you can just cover the exposed roots with an extra half inch of coco if you want.... once the roots turn green, they won't go back.... the trick is to prevent it if you can...... unless is a large portion of the roots mass, you usually won't see it effect the yield a whole lot ;), occassionally it will prolong flower a bit (depending on at which point the roots were exposed, how much was exposed, the turnover rate, and other contributing factors such as air/water/nutrient quality and concentration ;) )
Yeah, the roots kind of exposed themselves. I think the are saying, 'fuck man, give us a bigger pot!' LOL

beautiful nugs though bro.... beautiful :)
thanks man! :joint:

very nice!
cheers bud! :joint:

Looking great Snowy.
It's getting quite full in there ;)
Colas are coming along nicely mate.
Thanks mamm.....getting full indeed mate. It's an increasignly wonderful site everyday when I open the door to my room. And the smell!......mmmmmmmm :mrgreen: I really need a new carbon filter!

I've not said much about the blue cheese to date. It's been pretty quiet in the background so far......but I think this strain could be making the headlines next update. They are not going to be massive yielders, but that classic cheesey smell is really strating to come through and I love it! :peace:

hahaha, well you're both wrong......you should of seen my last grow. It was very ugly! Hermies, spider mites, fungus gnats! Immature seeds in the bud which were a nightmare to remove, all spliffs tasted of seed! Nasty shit!

This grow is quite different.....COCO! :hump:

More on the BC next update! :peace:

I think i'm gonna go coco next coz everyone seems to rave about it and i wanna give it a go, its all about the learning and improving lol

yeah, do it oscar mate, you won't regret it man. Just need to follow a coco feeding schedule and you can't go wrong.

If we don't make some fuck ups along the way, we would never learn or improve. It's all part of the process eh?!

Too right, I've been growing a relatively short time and i've improved with every plant coz when i make a mistake i try not to make again. the best thing i've learnt is to top at the tenth node, it works a treat for me lol

tenth node eh? You get good results for sure man. I've never counted where I top mine to be honest. I just kinda go for it when they look ready. I actually try and FIM, but whatever....it's all topping really and many gardners do it to many types of plants to increase brachning and yields. My girlfriend's dad tops and then seriously lollipos his greenhouse tomatoes, to concentrate all the plants energy on a few key branches. I want a greenhouse sooooo badly!!!!

10 week update folks.......hope you enjoy! :joint:

So let's start with the Blue Cheese.....these are so sticky and so stinky!!....we really need scratch n snff to do these the justice they deserve......but any cheese growers will know what I'm talking about.......I also need to upload some high res photos to do the stickiness justice, but I need to decide how I want to do that first.....I don't like using photobucket or similar file shares, but I might have to.

But anyway, let me introduce.........The Blue Cheese!

This one is quite stretchy, always was in veg as well. It is a very dark green, always has been. I'm expecting a low yield high potency with this pheno.



The other two BC phenos I have are much more bushy.....here is one of them.....hig res really needed!!



here's those three BC buds again with a big long unruly TW branch tied down behind them making a nice backdrop......



My 3 TW on the right side closest to my wall fan......





I can get the best TW bud pics as they are closest to my door and not directly under the HPS.....but again, high res pics really needed here.......





and here we have just a couple of group shots.....





I'll have a think about the high res photos and how I might handle it securely.....and hopefully for the 5 week 12/12 update I can give you some proper sticky bud shots!! :mrgreen:

Right guys.......I really need to do some work!!! :roll:

cheers don buddy, yeah, packing on the weight now. I actually came down in my feed this week too. Flushed at a really low 1.0 EC and then came back at em with 1.4 today. I was seeing some very slight burn in the tips and I wanted to knock that on the head quick smart. I'll go back to 1.6 next feed probably, or maybe 1.4 again, depending on how they look in a couple days time. You should see them full res though man.....totally amazing!! I'm thinking about what to do still.

Just keep getting the basics right Snowy.
That's all it takes to grow good buds.
... and the genes this weed is made from today will do the rest:hump:
F*cking A1 bro'!:joint: pass it on!
This plot is kick'n it! bongsmilie


Edit: I knew it fucking would :hump:

much appreciated dude, seriously, thanks.......'plot'.......I like that! :mrgreen:....here man, I rolled an amensia haze one especially for you buddy.............:joint:

But you hit the nail on the head man, it has so much is to do with quality F1 genetics. Breeding is the next step for me, but I need a little more space to do it properly and really grow out loads of seeds to find the best phenos to then cross. I don't see the point in doing it otherwise. Why bother when there are plenty of experienced breeders who will do all that for us...and do it well!

My mrs thinks I'm a crazy scientist already with all my nutes, meter and feeding notes. I tell her it's not very complicated, but she doesn't believe me. God knows what she'd think if I started breeding as well. I imagine the first complaint would be, 'too many plants!!!!!!'

Thanks for your comments though mamm.

Hey Butters,

Everything is looking good bud. I wish I could taste some of that blue cheese.

Anyhow, now that you are almost done with the coco grow, I have a question. What would be your thoughts on doing exactly what you did except using ebb n flow? Do you think that might work better, and also might be less work?

I ask because currently I am growing in coco, pretty much doing what you are doing except its ebb n flow, so I am curious on your thoughts on this.
