It's been a while since I've been here, and have a few questions for growers with experience with white fire. My first run with this strain didn't go so great. I know im doing something wrong because this is supposed to be a great strain. Here's my setup 4x4 ebb and flow (hydroton pots)table with 2x600w eye lamps. my nutes are H&G roots xl, aqua flakes A&B, drip clean. Atami bloombastic. Dyna proteckt My water is well water with a 330 ppm out of the tap and i ph to 5.8. I was have a mag def in my plants and added epsom salt to correct. My first run with this strain and about 5 others(cannaventure cookie wreck, and ecsd x cookie wreck. Delicious seeds cotton candy, th seeds sage and sour and pyramid seeds tutenkhamon). the cotton candy came out the best. the others were average at best. they were all 10 week strains that i let go 12 weeks from 12/12 switch. I have decided to run just the wifi this time to simplify things. I have a few questions.
1. what is the optimal ppm for wifi min/max?
2. do you count 70 days from switch to 12/12 or first sign of flowers?
3. any special needs for these girls? do they require more amounts of certain nutes that have to be added separately?
appreciate any thoughts on this matter. I wanna bring out the best in these bitches this go around.

First thing, it took me 30 seeds to find that extra special pheno. I actually got two different ones. One leaning each way, with the fire one being the best smoke and smell, the white being frostiest. Almost every single one of them ended up good shit though. And almost everyone of them is sorta picky in veg. Most are mag hogs like you are experiencing, in veg. I work my way up to 900ppm in veg. 1100 in flower. I grow them many different ways/styles. They really aren't too picky in flower though. Hope this helps. Any questions fire away!
Oh yeah, both phenos i kept, go 9 weeks from flip. Could chop at 8 if you had to.
I don't remember any of the other ones taking longer,but maybe a couple of em.

Hey Aero thx for the knowledge. Are you using R/o water? my ppm's were 1400 total. that is with the 330 out of the tap. so basically 1100 ppm worth of nutes. should I back off some? 1100 ppm total? anything special i should be adding to my nute regimen? I was running a lot of strains and i suspect that they were feeding differently and taking up different nutes. so hopefully one strain will be easier to focus on.

Without knowing whats in your well water i dunno man, maybe split the difference?
My town water is only 50ppm outta the tap. I add 1/2 tsp calmag always, mainly because of my coco grows though. I add cal/mag on top of the tap water, even when i grow in promix, or flood and drain with hydroton, it sure doesn't hurt, esp when growing the og's. Do you have a cut you got from someone, or did you start from seed? You could just have gotten unlucky with a very picky pheno.
Were you not happy with the yield or quality? And/or because it was a picky bitch?

These were from seed. 7 pack i think? I wish i could find out exactly what is in my water. that would make things a lot easier. quality was average and not what i was expecting. yield was decent. Woulda been better if it didn't stretch like a mofo so it could get the proper light. Gonna hit it with the bushmaster this time around. Just wanna make sure i got the right level of nutes. I've been doing grapefruit for such a long time now. And I was using the same feed schedule with the wifi just gotta tweak it maybe.

I top the shit outta it in veg. From my experience, it's usually the white leaning ones that are prettier, and stretchier, but sort of bland. Both are decent yeilders though if trained rite. Ssssshhhhhhh, don't tell anyone haha. grapefruit is a totally different type of plant. Just way easier to grow. At least it was when i grew it years back. I bet you'll dial them in next time.
