had to repot one of the 2 Green o'matics ... was in a slightly smaller pot, and i have to go away in a couple of weeks and will have to leave someone else in charge of watering my girls, so didnt want issues with one plant drying out faster then the other two... which it was

but during the process i did notice the Critical jack is budding up nicely ... :-) ... and it smells much nicer then the GOM's did already .... i think it will be a winner :-)
 
Thanks for the thread ! Just ordered some Dinafem Critical Jack auto, [FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]Grass-O-Matic Max gOm and [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, sans-serif]Green House Super Critical AUTO. [/FONT]

Amazing job with the CFLs man! Subscribed to learn with you.

Cheers !

thanks fella .... the Critical Jack is a great plant so far... its larger then the Green o'matics already and its 2 weeks behind them lol.... Maxi GOM is a bigger animal then the Greenhouse seeds Green o'matics i've grown.... but i'm sure it will be a nice smoke

yeah SU welcome :-)

it makes hardly any difference to me ...as long as it tastes nice and keeps me in smoke for a while i'll welcome the change.. 21% thc would be nice... but not really what i'd regard as a day time smoke, and i smoke all day :-)

i must admit i have been lacking in photo updates with this plant... its due to being massivly busy and i can't find the charger for my camera... but i'll borrow a camera and sort out a picture or two before the weekend

Nice to have something to compare mine to. 1 month today, looks like you are about a little more than a week ahead of me. View attachment 1989465View attachment 1989466
Vigorous little bushes they are. This one started flowering about 5 days ago.
yeah i must say they are very nice plant... my one seems to be growing fine, however it isnt as uniform as the last plants i grew... but it smells great and the buds are coming on

Mine kinda looks like it is in a perpetual state of bad hair day too. The side branches did come up even with the main stem though. I would like to see some pics of your bud sites...mine look a little yellow to me.

i'll sort out a picture tomorrow fella....

my side branches did not all come up even.... a couple have stayed almost level with the main top ... a few are shorter :-( ... but i'm pleased with her

my bud sites also look quite yellow (ish)

Must be a pretty stable strain, very little difference between our plants. I thought mine looked hungry yesterday, so I gave it an uber light veg feed... and have promptly had to move the lights up 2x today. Looking forward to the pics...they will be like a glimpse in to the future :)

I've yet to find someone growing the same strains as me under the same conditions. Would be great to see other efforts.

I agree with your stability theory. M mate grew out 10 Pineapple chunk seeds and there were at least 3 different phenotypes, tall ones are well over 150cm and the short ones are like 50cm at the same age - quite a difference!

here is the long awaited picture update... sorry guys but things have been quiet busy lately, there is however light at the end of the tunnel ... as we may have a new house very soon :-) .... and i am already thinking about phase 2 of trouts garden ;-)

P1020125 (1024x682).jpg Critical jack is still centre, it is due to grow slightly larger then the green o'matics. so the lamps above the plants either side will provide side lighting for the Critical jack as it continues to stretch

P1020122 (1024x683).jpg from above
P1020121 (682x1024).jpg quick outside the cab pose.... for all you lights off fans ;-)

couldn't be happier with the little heater ..... maintains temps a treat .... i am only really going in one every couple of days to check on soil conditions now as i'm totally relaxed about the cabs performance, one thing i have noticed is the GOM in the top picture on the far right i repotted that one last and had just bought some bat shit .... so i added a tiny amount to that soil when i mixed it .... then to my suprised it started to out perform the much larger GOM on the far left (top picture) ... the main cola has stacked all the way to the base :-) :-) .. and it has a much richer colour too the pistels
