Trouties Critical Jack Journal

[riverchaser]

Its official, we are no longer using the same light. Got the box up and it was dialed in first try.
I also just gave it the bloom juice for the third time. Still putting on purple, starting to show cloudy trichs too, but a ways to go on the hairs, they just started turning color. Hoping its not locked out, but I think I'll get at least an oz out of it. Have you had any progress on the yellowing yet, got any purple on the newer growth?

yellowing ...hmmmmm ... gave it a 1/2 dose bloom... every large leaf is yellow ...and there is no coming back from that. just keeping an eye on how it does will continue with light feeds... i have a feeling my week away was too long and i should have started feeds before i went, and i think now its not going to be as good as it could be ... but i'll run it for the 70-85 days these things take

 

[riverchaser]

I was actually thinking the same thing about not having started feedings soon enough. The ppms probably aren't high enough in our nute mix, but starting feeding at full strength could end up burning it too. Just riding it out till the end now. How long til you chop?

Very normal to have large shade leafs yellow late in flower

 

[troutie]

its only on day 52, so i wouldn't regard it as late in flower... these things are due to go between 70-85 days .... i'm hoping its going to be ok though ... plenty of green around the budsites and i'm now giving her nutes with a little N... but mostly P... hoping shes got enough green to power the bud growth

20 days or so for the critical jack.... at the earlyest

2 weeks max for the two green o'matics... there already 63 days old, so nearly there with them ... which is well handy because i finished off the last of my first harvest, and i'm itching to get some drying

 

[troutie]

they look well nice mate ..... was that an all outdoor grow??

nice one

 

[troutie]

just germing 2 x Pineapple Express (barneys Auto) seeds as i will have space for two more plants after my Green O'Matics are harvested next week or the week following ... and i've heard nothing but good things about the barneys PE autos .... so here goes

 

[troutie]

last night i removed two lower "sucker" buds from plant #4..and one from plant #5 (it only had one lol) ...and have them drying .... i've smoked a little L this morning..... although a little wet still its nice to have that weed buzz again after two weeks of hash

that hash in egypt is the identical to the hash found local to me, which i was suprised and also a little dissapointed to find out hahaha

yeah things are getting pretty uniform all over the world!

the first of the Green O'Matics has fallen foul of my trimming knife ....the small one looked ready enough to me... and is now mostly trimmed and hanging in a box inside my cabinet .... looks like about 3/4oz, not bad ...not great compaired to the last two, but will be nice enough when dried... and it might keep me busy while i wait for the other two plants lol

 

[troutie]

Green O'matic #5 has been harvested ...... been a while but now is hanging in a cardboard box in the grow cabinet .... finaly the end of the green o'matics, although its been a good weed to smoke during the past few months but i'm itching to get the Critical Jack in a jar lol ... now the Cab has 1x critical jack most of the way through flowering and 1 x pineapple express auto, planted today (the second has yet to germ??)

 

[riverchaser]

I hear ya on the jar part, bought a case a few weeks back, cant wait to try to fill em up... I do have 8 plants in veg so its not all up to the acj. My acj has frosted up quite nicely, and its filling out too. I think 70 days will be close. I'm at about day 58, hairs are about 40/60 orange/white, trichs 30/70 cloudy/clear. Every visit more hairs and crystals change, I'm hoping to see the first few ambers any time... in fact I'm gonna go check now

Yup, theres a little brown sugar hiding in there too

 

[troutie]

mine one seems to have stopped LOL...... mostly cloudy trichs but not beefing up like i would like ... but then again its mostly yellow.... think i might have to take this one on the chin and take whatever it produces and try not to judge it, as it was me that let the plant down for sure

 

[riverchaser]

Mine looks like hell too, but it just keeps getting fatter. The fan leaves look horrible for the most part, not quite as yellow as your last pics, but some yellow and some brown. My sugar leaves have held on though, seem to have stopped the spread of purple where it counts. I've been bombing it with flower food quite regularly now. 2 feedings to one watering, about a half gallon of what ever is on deck every other day. My feedings are still light, but I increase dosage every time. Could be the P thats helping me out. Is yours getting frosty? Mine is starting to get that "starlight twinkle" to it when looked at from a distance. I'll see if I can get my hands on the camera for a few pics tonight.

 

[troutie]

i too have been feeding her... she isnt processing anywhere near the amount of water so i've tried to hold back a little

pic update? <3

 

[troutie]

Picture Update!...... day 59 i think

as you can see the last remaining plant from batch number 2 is the single critical jack.... looking a little yellow and i have removed much of the offending dead stuff.... the smell which was once an awsome kick ass nearly making my eyes water strong type dank has become not so potent?? but hoping she'll be fine. i could be guilty of a little neglect

in the cab... pots left and right are pineapple express (day 2) and Critical jack (centre)
picture 2 ...outside the cab for better quality
last but not least a slightly better angle.... looks quite bad on the leaf front

[troutie]

not this one ... i covered my first Green O'matic harvest ... but i'm trying only to cover the Critical Jack this time around (but i kinda didnt do her justice)....as i've already grown the others.... except the pineapple express which comes highly recommended... hoping for better results
