Thanks Jack,After you answered it i would have felt dumb,if I hadnot asked so many that were worse than that.LOLThe guy at the hydro store sold me some kool bloom told me to just use it the last 4 weeks and just use a little. So I timed it wrong but the buds got so big they scared me looked like something that belongs on a donkey,instead of 4 they went 6 or 7 weeks with it after they got that big I think they started back down. They still stayed larger than they were,but I think they may have taken on water 'cause it took longer to dry this time.That's what I think I don't know anything.3 grow and the best hobby I ever had.Peace

yeahh it is
Looks really nice, it's one I've had in my mind for a long time but always opted for other stuff. I guess that White Widow and ww crosses are just too generic and I want to keep trying other stuff haha.

Don't suppose you have any tips on growing it? Anything to look out for, like is it nute sensitive etc.

I think It'll be one of the packs in my next seed order, along with Strawberry D-Lite and Green Poison.

yesterday....

and today...

much greener again.. only thing ive done is raise the lights slightly and drop the setting down to 750. cant believe how quick the greeness has come back. i think its nearly halved the lux they were getting though.

anybody know if they get a little more hardy to the light as they get older?? seems a crime to have more light and not be able to use it...

yeah i meant to say 1ml/gal from 3-4 weeks into flowering, basically 'when the buds start spiralling up the stems'. Then i would up to 2ml/gal when they are really filling out. I did 3ml/gal on my last grow and got leaf tips just starting to burn so i went back down to 1.5 (that was about week 7 or so). Not read about the pk9/18 so ill have a lil look now, but im pretty sure i was dosing at about half what was recommended on the bottle. The pk9/18 might be a bit less harsh :-/
yh i think im gonna leave it a few more days. thanks for advice :-P ... Shift+R improves the quality of this image. CTRL+F5 reloads the whole page.

If the fan leaves at the top are the ones getting lighter then the bottom then you may have your light too close. With my 400 hotilux bulb I can get about 8" away before getting bleached.
thanks mate, pretty sure it was light bleaching. they greening up already now light been raised and weakened

Well,I checked and all my leaves,not just the top were pale.I was going to back off my light 'till I saw that,so I went ahead and strengthened the nutes I had a seed crack so I added that not under the hps but where it needs to be,small light. I want to try to have some thing ready every week or 2.It's just me so I don't need much,but I like it! Peace

its a pretty easy strain to grow i have two phenos they both love the nutrients. im using fox farm grow big with big bloom . im going to start using tiger bloom soon with molasses . it responds very well to topping and even better to fimming. mines had an odor in veg
so make sure u have a carbon filter..it stretches ALOT wen flowering (almost 300%)

That looks like bleaching to me but I could be wrong. That's how it starts and eventually your bud will turn white. Just look out for that. To me older leaves feel hardier but it doesn't really matter because the bud will bleach before the leaves do. Happy growing.

why not just leave it at 1000w and raise the light a little higher

    That's the way it's been for me on 2 grows so far and looks like it's going to be the same on this one.Peace​


    Jack I did not do a very good typing job and this looks confusing but I think you'll know what I'm saying.

Here's the ladies at 3 weeks old, 9 all together. 1 out of the 2 Critical Mass have thrown out a set of balls but i might keep it some how to try and get some pollen.
Sorry they're sideways
