Update.
Start of week 4 of 12/12.
In 18litres I added
29ml vega A and B
9ml Rhizotonic
27ml pk1314
2ml Ca
2ml Mg
9ml silicon
PH 5.9 EC 1.5
Coming out EC 1.7. Next feed will continue with EC 1.5 if runoff EC comes out at 1.7 again I will be backing off to 1.2-1.3. Leaves are beautiful and lush green. No signs of the richer EC in the plants at all but as I've already mentioned I try to feed just enough. But I don't believe in flushing a medium unless there is a significant problem to correct. A little over feeding can be corrected by slowly backing off the strength of the next feed.

Hey everyone.
So I think I miss calculated the days of 12/12. I have entered into week 4 of flowering Thursday just gone. So today's update will make it day 26 of 12/12.
Feed going in EC1.5 coming out EC1.6. I'm happy with the downward moving EC which I think will hang around 1.5 next time. Enjoy.

Hey folks.
Start of week 5 of 12/12.
In 18litres today I added
27ml PK1314
9ml Rhizotonic
29ml vega A and B
EC1.4
pH 5.9
As you can see, plants are happy, healthy and still green. Approx 22" tall from the top of the pot and the bottom 4" are bare due to me cutting alot of growth away at the start.
So that's around 18" of plant that I've allowed to produce bud by not cutting anything off other than the pruning in the beginning.
Enjoy.

Hey folks.
Plants are doing great.
I'll update pics this week.
I've just placed my latest order.
5x delicious seeds fruity chronic juice.
1x DINAFEM critical+ (had some of these beans already but hot fuzz took them away with them)
And some humbolt freebies of some description.
Can't wait to rock the FCJ again. I'm almost out of this strain now and I'm wishing I had more. Lol.

Hi everyone.
Little update.
After the increasing EC and my feed going in at 1.5 I wasn't happy when I saw it come out at 1.9. Bit too much for my liking. So I made a weak nutrient mix of 0.6EC with Rhizotonic and vega a and b.
I've now resumed back at EC1.2 with no PK1314 any more. I feel the attributed increasing EC is down to my own fault of adding the PK1314 for 1week too long.
So now going in at 1.2 coming out 1.1. pH 6.2 today to allow easier uptake of nitrogen right now as they are really beginning to swell and starting to pale a little.
Hope you like the pics.
The level canopy shot is only 3 of 4. The 4th is the picture on its own in better lighting with close up cola shot.
Hope you all enjoy.

Hi folks.
I hate trying to count. Lol. I think we're now starting week8 of 12/12.
So after me testing EC and it going in at 1.5 and coming out at 1.9 I have now got it settled back down at EC1.1 going in coming out 0.9.
Some leaves within the colas have suffered a little but as you can see from the pics everything else is looking fine.
I have included a stem shot so you can clearly see the 4 mains that I selected.
Also there is a pic looking up from the bottom of the plant.
Enjoy.

Hey folks.
Well its very nearly time for me to start out my next seeds.
The next grow will be my last for a while. Nothing has happened bad. I need to do some home improvements. Namely an extension to my house. Hopefully with a hidden room built somewhere upstairs after redesigning lay outs etc.
Anyway back to the point.
I have a small propagation box with a 24w T5HO light in it for starting seeds/clones.
Here are the seeds I have a choice from.
5x DELICIOUS SEEDS FRUITY CHRONIC JUICE
1x DINAFEM CRITICAL+
1x HUMBOLT SEEDS ORGANISATION OG KUSH
1x HUMBOLT SEEDS ORGANISATION PINEAPPLE SKUNK
if you had this choice what would you do?
I'm think 2xfruity chronic juice the critical+ and then I'm unsure to run one of the HSO seeds or add another fruity chronic juice.
Help me out.

Mr I Can Do That For Half
Quick question I think I know but just want to verify. When your quoting amounts such as 4.5 oz per plant your quoting the wet weight manicured correct not the final dry weight correct? I am guess wet since from the pictures your plants are smaller plants with smaller colas so at like 2.5oz numbers I assume thats trimmed wet which breaks down to about 3.4 dry oz per plant correct?

Little update.
I have delayed harvesting due to checking the plants with my loop in the dark under white LED light just before lights ON and I only see milky trich's so I'm waiting as I want this cheese to change my mind about cheese. Currently I don't really like it.
Cheese in the uk is like KUSH strains for you Americans. It seems to be the sought after smoke.
Personally I think its over rated.
I much prefer fruity indica strains.
Anyway here's a couple of dark bud shots.
My pistils have been amber now for around 7 days. Totally all over the plants. Top to bottom. Pistils are receeding. So I'm within the window. Its just about the ripeness. With only milkys visible I foresee almost another 7 days.

I think the post you're referring to is me saying that I'm trying to best 4.4oz. That would be dry weight.
However I also stated that ill be happy with 2-3oz per plant.
I havent quite accomplished what i was hoping to achieve with this grow as I was testing how long I could run full strength PK1314. So they're a little more yellowed here and there than I'd normally like. But otherwise very green.
Although colas aren't massive I agree with you, there are very many of them at similar sizes.
There's weight in numbers.
