Looks tremendous, I've been busy with grad school and the first wave of harvest lately-- sorry for the absence.

Keep doing exactly what you're doing. Don't get excited and try anything drastic. Just have to stay in-tune with your girls and wait until its harvest time.

Ok..... checked the girls a little while ago when the light came on and they all look great with all the budding sites/pistils starting to join together!! Im getting real excited!! I checked their pots to see how dry they are as none of the plants look floppy and found that the soil is fairly dry and normaly i would give them there feed today as its 3 days from their last feed, but people have told me its beter to wait till i see them dropping a little before i feed them again so im trying to hold off!!! Will prob feed them tom even if their not dropping!
Good or bad idea??

I will feed them the same as i did before which will be 2litres of water with 6/7ml bloom food+ 1 tablespoon of molasses. The last time i feed them, this is what they got and they seem to love it!!! My plan is to keep feeding this amount till about the 1/11/09 or just after then give them a flush which will be 2litres of water with just 1 tablespoon of molasses, after that 1 more normal feed as above(2litres water + 6/7ml bloom + 1 tablespoon molasses) and then 1 weeks worth of pk 13-14 + 1 tablespoon of molasses(about 3 feeds) which should take them upto the 13/11/09 or somewhere near that and which time i plan to start the end flush which i will give them just 2 litres of plain water whenever the pots are dry for 10-14 days!! so the 23-27/11/09 should be the end of flower but im also planning to give them 24/48 hrs of dark before i harvest them!!

7 days drying
7 days curing

Hopefully, fingers crossed should have a nice little smoke for xmas!!! WHOOOOO!!!! LOL

Let me know what you think guys!! Any problems with my masterplan!!!

Is the molasses going to be ok to use with my pk 13-14?????????

Stay Strong Peeps!!!(may do some pics tonight but if i cant then will get them on tom!!)

Nice journal Mr Baggins, and those nodes are tight, the flowers are gonna join up (big fatty's) --- gonna be the stink!!
Reading through your journal I noticed a couple of things. I used plagrond before and I really liked it (the Bloom). The next time I went back to my growshop they didn't have any so I got the Bio Nova Growth Supermix, and I had the PK 13 + 14 BN as well. So next grow I started adding the 13+14 at week 1 flowering, 1/5 strength, then 1/10 next week and so on until I get to 1.25ml / litre. Done it religously this time around as well, the girls seemed to love it.

Natcho this is only my opinion, but I feed them week 1 of flowering, only half dose, but after that pretty much start cranking it up. Now perhaps the Headband being a sturdy bird means you can throw extra fert at them...but that's what I have done and been more than happy with it.

So sitting back and sub'd in. DST

Cheers for checking out my grow DST!! I did read that Barneys Nightshade can be a bit finkey when it comes to the nutes so ive been holding off!! Think i will stick to adding it 3 weeks before the end of harvest for just 1 week, but next grow i may just give your advice a whirl!!!

Do you know if the pk will be ok to use with the molasses??!! i assume it is! seeing as the molasses just helps the plant taken on food, so i belive!!

More pics soon infact hopefully next few hours or so!!

Stay Strong Peeps!!

the pk does get sugary around the bottle cap so perhaps it also contains some sort of glucose or sugar in the mixture/Complex (which is what they call it) but i guess you can only try, I have never used molasses...
