Hey gorlax. Those pics are from just one plant? That looks like several in there dude. if so i may be in trouble if some of my 4 dont turn male. I thought i had plenty of space. I just swapped the light cycle on mine yesterday. maybe we will know pretty soon what ive got.

Gorlax,

spent some time catching up on your grow. very nice work. I love your pics with the envirolight. very white light so your green looks nice and green. Do you know the color temperature?

I'm confused. Like donebuyin (agree, great name) I'm perplexed at your 'one plant' comment. looks like a lot. Also although the bud looks fantastic I'd love to see the whole plant to so I can get a feel for height and how exactly you've tied down. Could you back up and get a wider angle on your rig or at least take some shots of the bottom and middle in addition to the top.

I really like your string tricks and might implement something similar if i run out of room. Maybe it's better to tie early while the stalk is still bendy?

Awesome grow for a 200 watter. props, subscribed.

Thanks for all the kind words guys, as I stated before this is only 1 plant, I vegged two but one turned male.





I still amazed on how well the plant reacted to all the bending I did to it, but I also think the sooner you start the better. My buld is a 200w that puts out 2700k warm light. I am almost glad that one plant was a male because there is no way I could have managed two plants in my small cab.

As far as update, I just flushed her using 3 liters of control ph water ( I usually watter with 1.5 liter) only 12 days to go.

AMAZING gorlax
I can't wait for my power skunk to bloom. Seriously, your grow keeps me going. It's nice to see someone who is about 7 weeks ahead of me with the same plant.

Thank you,
I really did little to no pruning, at about 4 weeks into flowering some of the bottom leaves started to turn yellow and started falling off which make my cat very happy every time I open the closet.
I did remove some of the very tiny buds that where not getting any lights (small but very nice when your stash is empty) I was going to get an HPS for my futur grow but really those big bulb really work great, put very little heat and cost next to nothing to run.

While I agree this plant is not as pretty as my blue cheeze, but they are free seeds and I am happy with this grow.

I am in need of help/ advice

New batch of pictures from this morning 12/12/08














Buds are getting bigger by the day but I really don't think they will ready by December 20th, making it 10 weeks of flowering time. I would say that trics are about 30% amber. I started flushing last week and they had 1 regular wattering since them. Should I restart the nuts or just ride it out on plain water only?

Any advice would really help me.

Ive heard difrent things regarding feedijg and flushing. Ive heard that u should feed till the last week then flush for a week extra lol. I would just keep on water getting less and less as u get closer to chopin. Yeah I know that wernt much help lol. Soz :joint:

U could hit em up wit some molasses ( has potassium, iron calcium )

or give them a last big feed of nutes ( just a lil bigger than usuall ) and then flush after it dries..

ya they look like they could go another 2 weeks, they are mostly sativa

i read somewhere that with indica's u want tricks mostly cloudy and sativa's u want mostly amber tricks..

The flushing is a major change to the plants regiment. If you've done it...let it ride. Restarting with nutes again and then flushing another time is going to really confuse her. The buds look big and fairly healthy - just water isn't going to make them worse but nutes although might improve them a bit also might detract from their healthiness and flavour. I say stay the course.

Hello gorlax, I think they are really nice looking buds, I do think a bigger light would juice them up, perhaps a 250 hps. My flushing regiman is simple, One week of molassis and water and one week of straight water and then hang 'em high, clint eastwood style. I'll experiment with my Power skunks once they get ready for flowering, I'll put them right next to the 1000 hps and see if it makes bud density changes. I do agree that my blue cheese plants do look really fierce, mine are barneys though.

Ride it out with the water. But maybe add a tiny tiny bit of molasses. Like dog said it'll shock em and confuse them if you started nutes again.
