Now that's what i'm talking about!! Good to see them starting to explode for ya bro!
Just flower the runt and keep one of the others for a mother, you'll be happier in the end!
Let's see if it'll let me rep you again......
Going to probably pull the runt, I think I can get some more clones so going to take a cutting from the best for sure for a future mother but will be flowering them all except the runt as the weeks move on

PE went bye bye. She developed some issues, stress had set in and going to concentrate on getting GWS going then germinate another PE. The PH fluctuations early in her life probably killed her but she kept trying to survive. Also pulled the weakest SIS.

So today, my island sweet skunk or sweet island skunk ladies (2 out of the 4 well 3 since I killed one) have gone to the flower chamber. The 3rd healthy one is currently being used for clones, she will soon follow in a week or two once she recovers.

Here are some photos of the two best SIS ladies on their first day of flower currently both 16" tall.

Oh ok cool. I live in an area where the people aren't educated on growing or strains of cannabis at all lol. They say that's government weed grown in labs haha, I was like no bruh there is no government weed...it's medical .

Both of what you're saying is "true".

There is a G13 Labs seed company who puts out seeds with G13 in the name
playing off the legendary hype of the story of how G13 came to be.

Seems the government story isn't that far off, but probably still a tall tale.

The government has definitely and may still have labs that they use for growing.
I remember seeing some marijuana documentary of a man who still (as of 2008
i think) was getting metal tins full of prerolled joints sent to him from the government
for his severe conditions.

Just curious but what were you told were the flowering times on your SIS? It looks pretty
sativa heavy, and hopefully some kill.

Sorry to hear about your loss, I'm a big fan of the PE and grew it for a while. Was that the first time growing it?
Yes. She was a month old at only 5" had some PH issues with a faulty meter. Already germinated new PE seed, tap root shot out last night she is in the rapid rooter plug right now. The smallest Sweet Isle lady got the axe as well. So I am left with

GWS seedling under Floro soon to be sharing it with the PE

2 - SIS in flower (day 2 today) 650 PPM, 5.8 PH & 400W HPS

1 - SIS - I took 2 clones, clones are wilting in a humidity dome I hope they bounce back if not no big deal I can always get more clones if need be they are all under the 250 MH. She is running at 500 PPM, 5.8 PH clones are in R/O water with rooter hormone that it was dipped in prior to placing in rapid rooter.

PE- is in the tap root stage just starting her life :D

Looks like cal/mag deficiency to me, try giving them some and see if the
newer growth is good. I'm not sure how much Ca/Mg GH nutes have in them
but the spotting def looks like that to me.

Since you're using R/O, you HAVE to add Cal/Mag bruh.
I do with my DWC.
I add 10 - 12 ml's into my 10 gals about once weekly.
It will increase your ppm's a little too, so keep that in mind.
R/O water lacks Cal/Mag the most because of the filtering process used to cleanse the water.

Waduup Weedler !! lol
I know my ass has been MIA but I'm trying to sneak peeks here and there.

Pretty sure he's got an RO machine, but he mentioned he was using tap water.
Usually you shouldn't have to use Ca/Mg with tap, but it's not completely unheard
of.

You really shouldn't have to use cal/mag w/ tap water. That's depending on your tap water quality. What nutrients/NPK ratio are you using?

GH nutes, Lucas Formula right now using a 5/10 ratio for 4GA, plan on increasing to 8/16 because of the switch from Floro to HPS

I looked at the ladies 2 days after adding Cal/Mag they do not look any worse but they are sleeping right now will know more in 8 hours

PPM - 650 PPM
PH - 5.8 (checked & calibrated w/ two diff meters)
Water Temp - 68F
Air Temp - 84F

Sorry for the long overdue update & photos I hope I made up with them (see below) :weed:

Update: SIS ladies are looking AMAZING! The main canopy is 24" easy and there are two main shoots one on each plant that have reached up to 28" I have bent these over sort of training them, tying them down to reduce stretch. I was told these ladies get 4' if left to veg to 18" I vegged them to 15" LOL opps! Day 8 of flower, enjoy :D

I also tried to get some clones off one of the ladies and they didn't root had some issues and didn't like the setup and they just did not make it. So I decided to flower her since she was reaching 18". Here are some shots of her on day 1 of flower:

Here is the GWS, she is doing great! I had to start her over and it was well worth it, she is rooted and loving life!

Here is the PE seedling my old PE just did not make it. I have since killed it & started a new one as you can see :D
