Short Stuff Blue Himalaya

i've contradicted myself,,, growing auto's once more.
400w - decided to stay with the MH bulp throughout the grow
250cfm duct booster
multiple fans
3gal pots
fox farm - ocean forrest
used jacks classic bloom once, thinking about switching to the grow big & tiger bloom
(some day i'll learn to give em' veg nutes too)
molasses
day or so old tap water, ph'ed
potted 3, only 2 made it
24/0 for a week, 18/6 ever since
today is their 28th day from germination
of the two that grew, one looks stunned. though both were similar in stature through week 1, almost week 2. also, i'm not taking advantage of the bulbs (footprint) considering its wide open on one side of the light, which have helped hold temps at 77-79 while the light is on.

a few days 'till now.

looks good so far. have u grown this strai before?

yeah, but i managed to fuck something up every time.
for instance, i started a BH a week or two before i put regular females into flower. 12/12 made her funky i think.
the buds were spindel like(airy, popcorny), not 'fox tailed' or whatever that dope shit is.
'we'smoked it up, yet 'i' still saw the dopeman cause i thought the BH i grew was shitty.

out of all the pistils that have shown up lately, theres two different calyx's that have pistils already ripening or something. is it pollinating itself?

fan leaves towards the top of the plant are at like a 45° angle, which made me curious as to why. ??
the rest are not angled. dunno.
not sure about the node spacing either, near the bottom it's a good 3inches between nodes, up top, 1inch roughly. is this due to the 10° temp difference?
while the camera hardly shows it fan leaf steams are showing reddish/brownish color on the tops, speckled like.
i think its just a phosphorus issue, or genetics? phosphorus..

other than that i'm just waiting on them.

It's been 7 weeks since these got going, though it seems backwards(if anything), I'm going to switch to the HPS today.

Is everything ok with her she looks like she is praying like they say in a Mag deficiency or something.well she looks beautiful keep up that green . did you get the seeds from a seed bank or your own strain?

ps. ever figure out that calyx question?

ha, she did look to be praying. not sure why, though you mentioning mag deficiency makes me wonder.
the seeds are from 'the attitude'.(the problem is nothing to do with them)

nope i haven't, regardless if it's an auto or feminized i always get 'tiny seeds' or maybe they are overies??, on the main steam where a node begins.
the 'tiny seeds' or whatever always start off greenish and easily squished and end up brown and half the size.

getting ready to water them

last time i watered them i added molasses with the tiger bloom and big bloom.
i'm hopeing what seem to be seeds are just ovaries??? and simple not ripe when i chop 'em down.
the bigger plant has yellow tips on BUD leaves. to much nutes?
both plant are getting same amount, maybe it's heat?

i've read up on 'the claw' but still got a few options, for what to do.
hopefully it's an over watered, nute or heat issue. it's been 6 days since i last watered/feed them. i've also raised the lights.

the MH bulb at it's highest was 79 degrees, 6in from top.
the HPS gets up to 84 degrees, 10in from top.

fuck this..

it's 1 day over 9 weeks from seed. they look like completely different plants, compared to each other.
i got no pics 'till the lights come on.

over load, look.

a few more..

ahh! whats the deal?
i snipped a little bud, every calyx i opened had 'that' something in it.?.?.?

trichomes seem to be waiting it out..with the fan leaves all but gone.

Hell yeah. Got some of these on the way. Gonna try LED I think. Maybe some outdoor. Those are some awesome looking plants. Some real high quality there. I"m stoked!

Their Beautiful, Im wondering mine is flowering at week 3, and 3 nodes as well, but mine are like 8 inches tall and bushy and yours seem to be taller, ami i keeping the lights too close??

Going on 20/4 cycle. How was the odour? Is it very noticeable coz mine has a tinge of Cola smell in it...

Thanks and nice grow mate
