Day 19

Making solid progress.. I went in there and removed unnecessary fan leaves.. Mostly leaves in the shade, or leaves that were blocking a lot of light for the lower nuggets that are developing..

Used the wide angle lens today, haven't in quite a while. I like the pictures more with the wide angle lens.

try to count the tops?

looking great man! are you gonna be lollipopping?? im pretty sure i remember u talking about doing it. i cant count the tops. theres sooo many!!! lol

 

[Sr. Verde]

I'm doing a half assed lolly pop ... I'm using the same principles but am not worried about getting everything like a true lollipopper.. There will be some slight pop corn, with some smaller lower stalks but probably not more than an oz in the end. All frost trim and pop corn goes to hash oil any way . Can't wait to see what this 400w will do in the long run !

Cool! I'll be updating this with a pic today.

I also saw Scottyballs grow and saw how good the pineapple express looked. So I'm excited. Though at this point I still think the headband looked and smelled better - but I'm expecting a better yield than the headband at the same time. Also hoping for the smell to come on stronger later in flower.

Just wondering what your yield was from the sour kush

 

[chb444220]

niiiiice. =) yeaa popcorn buds are still full of THC. =) and will do great in hash oil. =) my next hash run... i am going to try using the dry ice method instead of ice/water extraction method. its alot easier... less messy. and faster. and ive heard that the quality is better too. u ever try using dry ice??

 

[Sr. Verde]

i make a lot of BHO..

I haven't made dry ice hash, but Matt Rize on here is into that stuff a lot and posts some really super killer dabbable oil. So I would take the time to learn it if I had enough trim in abundance!

edit: removed day 21 info, posting new post below


Then, in 5 days on day 26 I will flush them out with 2 gal of filtered pH balanced water. By then, they should be shifting from needing lots of N to needing flower nutes like P, and some other micronutes like ca mg, fe. Around day 25-30 is usually when I see my plants get burned from continuing to use as much N that i used for day 10-15. So this time around we are going to try to avoid pumping up the leaves too green too fast, during heavy bloom will just do a slow continuous N feed to keep them a healthy shade of green.

Day 21

Fed with /gal

10mL Grow Big
10mL Big Bloom
10mL Tiger Bloom
10mL Cal Mag
ph 6.6

5.5 days with no water, starting to get wilted

About an hour after watering. Happy and perky again - ready for another day!

Pretty nice & even canopy, if I do say so myself!

Branching - topped, two main stalks. Camera was literally inside the plant for this shot.

I still feel like these plants still have some grow left in them, I feel like they will keep getting bigger for a week or more.


... the adventure continues!

 

[chb444220]

looks nice as always man! =D like the last shot of inside the plant. =) theres less popcorn nug than i thought. lol. its got itself a nice stalk ehh? my purple pineapple just got transplanted.. she went from a party cup to a 1/2 gallon grow bag.. and after a couple weeks.. i was watering her every day due to her extensive root growth.. wen i transplanted her into the 3 gallon grow bag.. i was happy with just how much root mass i saw.. only from a coupe days. shes gonna be a nice one. =) really likin this strain... blackwater x pineapple express. the plant looks awesome for only 3 weeks man! great bud structure! looks as is the 1st plant.. not the one closest to the fan.. is a tiny bit ahead of the other? also.. look like u got urself a tri-ploid or a poly-ploid bud/branch? in the 1st pic... the bud in the bottom right corner. might just be the way its facing the camera or sumthin idk. ive had a couple tri-ploid buds. theyre cool looking. =)

 

[Sr. Verde]

#1 is in the back, #2 is in the front.. Yes the #1 is like 2 days ahead of #1 for veg, the first #2 seed didn't sprout at first so I germed another!

& yes The front one is a triploid on the main stalk, both sides! fun fun fun .

Good looks on your purple pineapple, I'm seeing similar vigorous root growth! They have only been in these 5 gals for about 4 weeks now.

 

[JasonFSU]

Plants lookin mighty good sir, nice scrog.

 

[chb444220]

whoop whoop. i was right on point! lol. tri-ploid buds are pretty cool. theyre a bitch to trim tho.. cuz obviously an extra bud = extra leaves. lol. cannot wait to see these babys in full bloom!!! =D gonna be sooo many giant ass buds!

 

[RL420]

[Sr. Verde]

Waiting for those fat colas .
