Nice plants man!:hump:

.... Interesting input there on the water heaters. Anyone know what the optimal water temps would be in those setups? I'm still tinkering with a couple clones, but after having no previous luck on rooting yet, i've went with a heating pad on low. As of now, the temps stay around 76 for the clones with the pad.... before, the temps didn't even hit 70, ever.

Well the plants are now 9 days into flowering so I thought I would update.

They are really getting bushy and covering my grow room well with still some room to go.

The first pic is of the Church, second is the Thai Skunk, and = third is the room (HPS On). Fed once with BC Boost/ BC Flower, Sugar Daddy, and Awesome Blossoms. Next feading probably Sunday.

The plants are actually only 18" tall but are around 24- 28" broad. In the pictures you can see the bud sites forming from the vertical view. Looking to get 12-14 Cola's anywhere between 4-6" tall.

I have to say that I am completely impressed with the Church, at first it grows super short and fat and then it just fills out with really dense/ lush greenery. So far so good! The TSS is staying in place and not stretching out either and I have no idea what to expect from those plants.

I should have new pics every 3-5 days until harvest time, hope you enjoy :)

:peace:

:bigjoint:Those sure are looking nice, DownOnWax!! I am really surprized how bushy and low the TSS is staying. And I have to admit I haven't read the whole thread.......but can you tell me if you topped, or...? I 've had the same seeds and was going to gift them or put them outside for fear of their growth potential on an indoor run.... so this will be very interesting to see the stretch, or hopefully lack of........:hump:

Have FUN and be SAFE are the main things......hey, and have a great weekend!!

The Thai Super Skunk has been topped a total of 4 times and the Church 3 times.

The Skunk keeps wanting to grow out now and has just recently started reaching for the sky. Still in day 9 of flowering but it is looking like I will Easily have enough head room.

Nah, I started another thread for that one, it's also in my signature.

I am also going to post them on the 2009 early monster outdoor grow thread.

I am however probably going to post the White Rhino pics on this thread after I am done with this one.

Save some space on RIU hopefully :)

On Sunday I gave the plants a LARGE dose of BC Boost, BC Bloom, Awesome Bloosoms, Magical, and Sugar Daddy. The ladies are showing some explosive growth and no ill side effects to the Nute Packing.

Thai Super Skunk still maintaining it's short/ bushy stature but I am keeping an eye on them. White Pistils popping up everywhere and they look good.

The Church is really starting to show bud developement and I will have 14 "colas". They will be smaller but I think I all 14 will have 4"- 6" buds :)

Also gave the plants the first drink of Blackstrap Mollasses and plan to use it once per week. So now I am on a feed, water, mollasses water, feed regimine.

Still a lot of time to go but so far I am very happy with Both Strains.

:peace:

shit is looking very promising bro, what medium are u using again? gonna try to rep you again
I'm a soil grower.

It is a mixture of Scott's Moisture Advantage, Perlite, and my own compost.

It's probably 25% Scott's, 45% Compost, and 30% Perlite.

I actually try not to buy ANY dirt but I have been working for years to get my garden soil right but I can't seem to get rid of the Clay!!!

I will say that Scott's Moisture Advantage is a nice product all in all. I hate when I buy soil and there is big pieces of bark in it and they already add lots of nutrients. Scott's fert analysis is 0.07-0.01-0.03 so it is safe to use even with seedlings and it has a great consistancy.

I've been using scotts too for the last few grows as well and found it great for use early in veg. 0.07 doesnt sound like much nitrogen content but it's been perfect for me thus far up until the 4-5wk. point, where the N is stll there, but the P and K are ready for a boost, works out pretty well come time to start feeding.

Its the different kinds of nitrogen and how much of each kind the plant needs that makes the difference ;) ..... check your bottles..... lots of different things do plants good/bad...... thats why measuring etc. is important....

Correct me if i'm wrong here... lets see.... ammonium nitrate(good)... urea nitrate(bad).... and nitrate(good)....

Check out FF Big Bloom.... very low rates... but very effective, ;).... catalysts etc. are similar, and there are others as well besides NPK etc. plants process Carbs too ;)

Same thing with my Technaflora Nutes, small quantities of NPK but seem to be working very well.
