Day 21 of flower.

Huge flower growth.. wow, in my last grow i was just seeing flowers at this time. I can't wait to see these finish up. almost halfway there.. haha. first 3 pics are bud shots. the last 2 are of the new clones i cut and the trimmed up rhino mother. the sage is still tall but not bushy at all. i started lst on it. hopefully that will help the inside growth catchup so i can clone it. there is still no preflowers on the sage. i moved the other rhino from veg and i'm going to flower it. i'm almost 100% sure its a male. i want to collect pollen from it so i can have some seeds to give away or start new grows with. i still have 4 seeds from the good dr. chronic. maybe if the sage is a girl i'll breed it with the rhino? thatd be one fucked up offspring.

Day 24 of flower.

No problems as of yet, knock on wood.. just lots of buds.. haha. they are finally starting to stink. i was flushing with water today and was up close to the plants. smell is so sweet.. like a fresh glazed donut. haha. clones still look ok. some are laying over but still alive.. hopefully they'll survive

i got the 12 and 6 zone converters from the drip depot. they are in the retrofit kits/parts menu. all you need is a 1/2 barb connector with a threaded end to connect it to the hose going to your water pump. home depot carries them.

Day 31 of flower.

A little over halfway done. Plants looks healthy and are fattening up after i flushed them with water 4 or 5 days last week. Nutrient swap and fresh water to both systems. the clones are still kicking.. hopefully see some roots in a week or less. I'd love to keep these rhinos around. The male i have in veg has really shown its balls. does anyone have a thread about collecting pollen? i'll have to look around.. hmm

how do they look? pour some milk on these sugar coated buds.. haha :mrgreen:

your definitely looking top notch just curious how that elf is doing on your odors. I used it last grow and it did NOTHING. I tried slow and fast fans, but it just seemed odor went went right through. This was on 800 watts, 13 plants. and same elf carbon filter, this crop, im venting it through the filter, then right out the window and im using a ozone generator for entire room in small bursts to guarentee air outside room is good.
maybe its the lack of true air tight in hydrohut, but damn if the fan i had didnt suck the walls in so much i dont know how air escaped and odor especially.

The elf seems to be working ok for me. my flowering closet is well within the recommended sized growing area. the odor is much more noticable around the veg closet which has no carbon filter. i might build one using the FAQ for shits and giggles and maybe save a few bucks. the aero cloner seems to be working. all six clones are starting to root finally. i cleaned the res and filled it with a weak nutrient solution. maybe in a week or so i'll transfer them to larger cubes and start on the drippers. the mother is thickening up nice. after the last cutting she's filled out with lots of possible clones. i also put the sage in with the 2 flowering rhinos. i'm pretty sure its a male, so the plan is to create a hybrid white rhino/sage n sour... haha. more pics in a few days.

Day 35 of flower.

The rhinos are oozing.. won't be long before the get chopped. From the few online sources i could find on this strain. i have gotten 2 different flowering periods. some say 7 to 7 1/2 weeks and some say 8-9. anyone have hands on experience with the white rhino? the tops are starting to turn color now. red hairs.

i think the elf filter isnt working right cuz the air flow is too high. those 6 inchers put out like 250 cfm when you need like 150 max. try one of the 4 inch jumpoffs and it should work better.

Day 38 of flower.

The buds are putting on some serious weight now. I'm flushing with ph'd water till its time to harvest. The 6 clones have all rooted and i finally moved them into larger blocks and added them to the drippers. I cut 6 new clones from the rhino mom and started them in the aero cloner. I made a stupid mistake yesterday by not staking a drip line to the sage. i came home to find it wilted. hopefully it will recover in a day or two. i want to clone it next. the sage is officially a girl.

Day 41 of flower.

Couldn't be happier or amazed at this point. All 6 clones have survived and should start thriving soon. the next crop will start as soon as soon as the 2 rhinos finish up. maximize the space with six plants and either scrog or huge lollipops of large main colas. also the sage has fully recovered. i may cut a few more holes for net pots in the cloner. that way i can trim the sage and clone her. any comments/questions welcome.
