Hey Puff. Looking good and shes getting big! Keep me updated on that stretch so I know when to stop training bud.. Fingers crossed that you dont have any more sacks and you keep your fingers crossed for me that I dont get any:)

thats the ticket...she's fine...and yes balls can appear then no more...may have just been preflowers that swell up and looks like balls..anyway it dont really matter....a herm is NOT a fail anyways...

yes a lil N and Iron should do the trick bro...she will bless you with what jus maybe the best herb you ever had...and YOU grew it....keep on trcuking and

KEEP 'EM GREEN
yes, N and Iron is C'99's friend lol... You have caught your deficiency early.. looks about 5% and would say iron if your bottom fans are green still. I have been foliar feeding iron and it is doing the trick...though I am sure at the expense of loss of bud production. Being that KH has grown this strain out and loved it....................helps out a lot in the advice department!

Hey guys ,thanks for the encouragement and advice.

see4 -Thanks man, your a bit like me then.I can get lost in the beauty of a pot leaf sometimes.

Adam - Yeah the stretch on mine is now about 3x from the day i flipped.Up to 29 inches today.10 to 29 in 13 days.

Chesus - Thats sounds encouraging.2 ounces was my estimate aswell.

kite and leaf, Golden info guys.I upped the N and it has responded i think. The Bioheaven i use has iron in it so i'm wondering if it's maybe a ph issue, as i read iron is locked out at 6.5 or more. Maybe time to check my run off next watering.

So here's a little update.I was going to wait to tommorow for 2 weeks flowering exactly,but 13 is lucky in some countries so that's enough for me.

Still no smell off her ..a slightly fruity..kiwi fruit or fruit salad smell or something i can't quite put my finger on it..but not noticeable at all unless your moving her about.

I DON'T think she's a hermie after all.I think kite may have been right once again in that the "balls" were just swollen calyxes.Here is my reasoning.I got a picture of one of these balls for you to look at, but on another branch there is an identical looking one with 2 big
fat white hairs coming out of it,plus i haven't noticed any clusters or bunches in the way proper balls tend to form.

The one i took a photo of,you look at it and think ,male part, because it looks out of place ,but i think it's just a swollen calyx..I'm not going to pick it off and just see what it does. It's the only one i can see on the whole plant now anyway as i picked the rest off the other day.If it starts to look definitely male i will pluck it off,but i honestly think it's a calyx now.There's me picking them all off to...hope it doesn't affect the overall end product.

As mentioned above she has went from 10 inches now to 29 inches in 13 days and that is even with her being topped.

Thanks for reading.Here's the pics...014.jpg

Happy for ya man. I've always dreaded the herm in my plants and in real life lol.. Hopefully they are done stretching. We can't compare yields cause of our lights but we can compare our grams per watt. I love scrogging but once I'd like to grow some trees once..

hey mechanical thanks man.you will probably ace me for grams per watt.. your set up is amazing and you know what your doing..if mine isn't dead by day 45 i'll consider it a success lol
Thanks but its only my second grow and my first one ended 2 weeks before harvest due to the people at the house I was growing at jacking the AC up to about 82 while they were at work and I was away for 2 days. Inside box temps reached over 100. They were fried when I showed up to water them. The room the box was in got bad circulation but was perfect at 72ambient. This will be my first harvest. I just wanna know what the gram to watt ratio will be because as mine should be higher it takes me longer.. Wanna know if its worth it..

yeah it could be that .I'm pretty sure scrogging /bending all the tops down is going to do something to the hormones in the plant thats related to stretch and will react different to a plant that is left to grow up the way.. it could be phenotype difference also...i think they do look a lot fuller..

Ok ,regarding the slight iron deficiency.After you guys said that C99 loves Iron and said that mine looked like it needed a little,i became concerned that my ph might have crept up a bit.I did a bit of digging and found that iron is less available over 6.5 ph .So i figured this could be the problem as one of the nutes i am giving the plant reguraly has iron in it.

So i have been ph'ing my water going in to 6.5 until now ,but for todays watering i ph'd to 6.2 and read the ph of the run off.It came out at 6.8... Maybe this is the cause of this .. it is very very slight mind ,she looks pretty good i think.

What i am going to do for the next week or so is feed her with ph of 6 and see if i can get the run off to start coming out at 6.5 or so..

I'm thinking the little bit of extra acidity to the feed will neutralise the little bit of extra alkalinity in the soil...

I don't buy any of that flushing rubbish in soil ,she is fine anyway but i think i just need to gradually try and bring the ph in there down a little bit.
