I think I am looking at a late October harvest which is fine. The concern is all in the weather now lol, I have become a weather watching hawk now. As soon as I see a forecast in the 40s I will be putting her inside but so far sept looks 75/55 avg. I just hope she will bud up enough to look like yours hbbum lol she is such a bute.

That would be awesome. Thanks I appreciate it, but I am still a noob, just on my second grow.

Thanks. Update today.

Watered the 2 clones and took about 5" off of the top. This should give me some more time in the veg cabinet and who doesn't like a good topping :) This is also getting rid of some of the stretch I had since I think my LED was too high. I lowered it down considerably and took the cuttings and put them in a solo cup with a drop of Superthrive.

Watered momma with a gallon of water bubble for about 30 hours with 20ml of grow big, about 4 tbsp of EWC and 2 tbsp of blackstrap molasses. I was undecided if I wanted to add some dolomite this late in, I forgot to add it so I guess that made my mind up.. pH of the tea was a bit low at 6, but my run off was 6.6. I also cleaned up a bunch of the really bad(yellow/wilting) fan leaves, basically anything that was completely yellow and had some degree of wilting and would come off with a gentle downward tug.

Lights tick off in about 20 mins, but here are a couple lights on shots.

Nice to see some of the others have caught up in size to the original monster cola. I feel really bad for you with having all this weed to smoke lol. It's going to be tough but someone has to do it!

Well as much as I hate to make predictions on yield, I think this will be a little less than my last grow ( Jedi OG Kush Journal (Harvest Complete)). But since I am not in the distribution business that is not a concern since I ended up gifting 2/3 of my last harvest and still have plenty left. I am more interested in the taste and effect and if the sugar leaves are any indication this one could be considerably more potent than the Jedi.

Super happy about the this being such a heavy sativa strain. And yet still appears to be finishing quite early, I think this will be the last heavy feeding and then just water and molasses and maybe an occasional EWC tea but no more 5-8-4

Just a bit over, today is 45 days. I will scope the trichs at the end of this week. Tentative plan for a harvest the following week(9/14) if all looks right.

Yes it is definitely a winner strain, sugar mania, fast mover, and the yield looks great.. That looks like a massive amount of the green! Especially when you consider that Sativa is fairly short for the family, even though you added tops to compensate. Should be tasty too with that funky strain name, it's awesome you successfully cloned it :)

Daaaamn! You got 180+ g on you 1st go?? That's craaazy. Seriously, that's crazy! My lord, I'm praying to break a 100. Everyone please pray with me because I thought 100 would be big eyes and I'd be breaking records lol! 180!? You're crazy growing like that, stop giving your plants horse hormones dude.. That should be illegal :P

Went a little trigger happy on the phone camera today lol. I picked up a magnifying glass and had some fun with that and also noticed I can see threw the bucket to the roots. All this rain for 5 days really made the roots explode. I looked under the straw at the top soil and there is even some root growth right there too. Craziness, anyways here we go. Hbbum let me know what you think.

That stem looks nice and stout. She doesn't seem to have minded the barrage of rain at all and is thriving

I love the color of the leaves. And yah that stem is so strong and hard now. I think all the fuck ups from when it was a seedling made it a lot stronger.

Just the one yeah. It hasn't done anything since I started it though which was on the 27th. It was kind of just an experiment with some sketch root powder I bought at home depot lmao xD. Im just gunna keep it in that soil outside cuz I don't care.

You may be better off tossing it under a light indoors that goes for 18-24h so it doesn't flower. I did the same for the two clones that are in veg right now, just sat it in the window sill for a couple weeks in plain water and next thing I know they have roots, not I have two new plants to put in for essentially free :D

I will let them recover from the topping this morning for the next couple of weeks while my big plant finishes, then maybe veg them 1-2 weeks under the MH to fill out a bit then or just straight to flower. Going to see how the yield is for 2x3g with a shorter veg vs 1x5g. Though I have not been able to confirm if I can actually get the 2x3G to fin in my box. I nearly snapped a couple branched last time I tried to remove momma from her closet.

Yah I could bring it indoors. Maybe I will tomorrow and keep it in my closet but the big plant didn't seem to like my closet that much.
