Will update on the girls tonight. Slowly introducing the pk 13/14 over the next week or so. Also turned on one of my far red spotlights this week and had to tie my bent top branches to the walls for extra support. Pics later on today.
How them girls doing.........

man, been super busy lately and haven't had the time to update my girls. Theyre still going strong, but I think I might have slowed them down some by adding pk13/14 a little too soon, that or it's just a longer strain than the 8 weeks I was told this strain is...either way theyre still coming along. Loading up on the crystals now too. Bending the tops saved me a lot of worrying too and gave me that extra space I needed. Still waiting on my new diamond series lught to arrive, im literally giddy with excitement. I decided i'll be finishing up the snow dream under both lights in attempts to fatten them up. Pics later today, I promise!

Here's some shots of my lovely ladies; I really wish I could figure out my new camera better!

No worries. Yeah I've heard the same thing about this strain, she needs some foreplay to finish...
The pics look good and they look like their coming along nicely. Did you get your new light in yet??? Yeah I'm jealous.....:p

Update Time! Been a while since my last update, and I think things are starting to pick up now. Still haven't decided what the hold up has been, either a longer strain or I added the pk too soon? Like I said, things are looking like they are picking up steam now. Getting smelly and loaded full of crystals. Here's a few pics for your viewing pleasure...getting a little better with my new camera finally!

Admiring the plants they look like there really starting to swell in between nodes.
They look very healthy nice to see green fan leaves well into flowering.

How long did you veg for?
Did you top or Lst?


Keep it up

Hey, sorry I missed this one yesterday when I updated. Still waiting on the new light...but at least Kyle called me last monday and let me know what the hold up was, which I wasn't expecting a call so that was great to have him randomly call me up and update me on the status of my delivery, plus they didn't charge me until it actually gets delivered so no big deal. I'll have it soon though and show some pics of it.

What's up lrg? Welcome aboard, glad to have you along for the ride! For some reason, I don't really get too much yellowing during flowering, even during the final weeks. It's either the leds or the canna coco & nutes, which I haven't checked the ratios in a long time but I think they run higher in N? Don't quote me on that though.

I vegged for 10 days under the LED. I got the clones when they were about 7 inches tall, so I have no clue how long they were vegging at the dispensary for. They were still in rockwool cubes when I got them and the roots weren't the best I've seen. I transplanted straight into 3 gallon smartpots and after the tenth day of veg under the LED they were about 20 inches tall so that's when I flipped them.

No, I didn't top or LST this time but will be doing one or the other on the next grow. I definitely had canopy control issues this time and had to supercrop them and bend the tops so they weren't too close to the light. I did get a couple bleached spots on the top nug fan leaves but not too bad. Lesson learned for sure.

hey bro what up things are lookin good but ya you still got some time to go by the looks of it what week flowering you in?
Sup curly? Yeah, I got at least 2 more weeks thinking 4 max before I can even start thinking about flushing. Sucks because I've been flowering for 6 full weeks, starting week 7 this weekend. But that's also counting from the day I flipped the lights and not from first signs of flowering which if I remember right was 3 or so days after flipping and then hairs really started pushing out about a week or ten days after flipping. Like I was saying in my update, has to either be a longer strain than 8 weeks or I fucked up things by playing with the pk too early.

looking good bro
Thanks Dinafem! Always nice to have your input. Hope you're having some luck on choosing a state yet!

Thats great to hear man, keeping nice lush leaves can be difficult with out proper/nearly perfect conditions
I would say the coco provides a very nice medium as well
LED temps also run a bit cooler
You have a great vibe going on in the grow room!
Those smart pots are cool looking! Whats there function? (my guess is aeration for the soil?)

Ya I would lst/top next grow!
your yield would nearly double!:leaf::leaf:
especially with how well you've done so far!:clap:

Thanks man! I've only topped and super cropped before, never tried lst so I'm kind of leaning toward trying that next round. Just wondering what the average veg time most people use on lst plants vs topping? If lst requires significantly more veg time I might have to just top this next round.

Starting to think about my next strain...i might roll with snow dream again unless something else catches my eye.

The smart pots allow more air to the roots and "air prune" them which encourages new root growth by killing off the ends that edges. Can even see the roots start to stick through the fabric. Really neat containers, I doubt I'll ever go back to standard plastic pots.

You better stick that new light in there and plump those bitches up......:p
The new light. Can't wait to see what it can do next round! I can already tell it's going to outshine the 180w in more ways than one!

And for anyone who followed my last grow, this is the last of the Power Skunk.

I don't think I ever got to post a pic of it because my camera died at the time. I still have a nug left of the White Domina which looks just as lovely but I couldn't get a decent picture of it. I took like 10 different ones and my conclusion is that I never would have made it as a photographer.

The Snow Dream is finishing up nicely. Hopefully start flushing in another 10-14 days. That'll put me at around 9 weeks. Pics of the ladies tomorrow.

The 200w diamond series is up and running alongside my 180. Not sure how much of a difference having it in for the last couple weeks will make. Right now I have it set to full spectrum and then for the last 2 hours ive been switching it to the red bloom mode. No reason really, just experimenting thinking that the red might simulate late evening/dusk a little better than full spectrum, any thoughts on that?

Thanks, really happy with this strain and how well its responded to everything. Really stinky nugs that smell super sweet and the stickiness is ridiculous. Haven't started flushing yet, might start sometime next week as im thinking they'll be prime to chop around start or middle of week 9.
