im just at a week for them...they arent really growing other than the tap root traveling south pretty fast. it just hit the drain holes so it should take off real soon. the grape and other widow crosses look really good. they are on their second set of leaves and also a week. i put them in 16 oz plastic cups till i figure out what to do with them...i dont want things to cramped under the 600...i kinda want to do some 12/12 from seed...ive seen some decent fast grows that way and i think with my soil and stuff i could do somethin pretty decent...but thats a little down the road...first its gonna be a SOG once the aks are done...

I tried the 12/12 from seed and ended up with alot of hermies and males from the Crosses,i dont reccomend it with the crosses.IMO i wasted alot of good beans.

STINKYWIDOW.ITS easy say its today 500ppm and tonight its 450ppm,it has used the nutes and not the water.Therefore you can bump the ppm up till it basically is even.What your trying to do is get a even ppm thats the same from day to day.As the plant gets bigger it will use more nutes than h20,and you will be able to tell by your meter.Remember do not add nutes when the water level falls,WAIT till you do a res change just add phed h20.When your plants get a few feet tall they will drink Alot of water,depending on rootmass.It can get tricky when they get big and start gulping the water,dont be surprized if they drink a gallon in a few days it will happen with large plants.

today things are going well! i noticed today for the first time my nute levels went down a little...they are finally starting to feed!...after doing some research i'm kinda wishing i put the chemo cindy in the WF instead of the stinky widow...but im sure i wont be disappointed with the stinky...all the plants are looking great and growing well with a nice green color...the chemo has some crazy leaves growing on it but i read that they do grow weird at times....

hope your feelin better today my friend...i think they are gonna take off now...i forgot to check the ph the last few days and when i checked last night the ph was 7.2 so i dropped it down to under 6...i though the an stuff was balanced to not drive the ph up, guess i was wrong...i just tranplanted the widow x's into large containers yesterday...they looked like they needed some more space...lol.....the gigabud is already getting some branches where it looks like the widows are gonna be more single cola plants..they are all lookin good!

things are really looking good today! temps are a stable 74 humidity is 45% and my res temps are 64...i'm really impressed by the gigabud...its a really nice and healthy fast growing plant...the widow x's look awesome also...i do think one of the chemo cindy is a male...it just has that look if you know what i mean...but that could be a good thing...they will all be sexed next week so i know who is going to go into the woods to provide some pollen for my breeding adventure...i would love to cross some chemo with...well anything! im really looking forward to cloning these beautiful widow strains! they all have real fat leaves so im thinking more indica dominant which is what i was hoping for...the aks and the stinky in the waterfarms have grown an inch since last night...things are really gonna take off now!...nutes are at 420 to 440 ppm and they are taking the levels very well now that ph is in check...ph is at 5.8 and i plan to pay alot more attention so i dont have any more radical swings in it...love the hydro! i should have done this a long time ago!

Dude! That's so fkn funny! I forgot about the smoke report!....i was so damn high i barely remember last night!..lol...lets see...when the jar is just opened, it gives a very powerful fruity, skunky smell..not the normal fruit smell but a spicy fruity kinda...upon breaking up the bud the same smell but almost overpowering but not bad overpowering. The smell makes your heart race...it breaks up perfectly and has a very high resin content in a way that you could smoke your fingers...lol....it burns very nicely in a bone, very smooth going down but then wham! You get a knot in your stomach and exhale as quickly as you can. It comes out very smooth also. The high hits pretty much on the exhale and builds rather quickly...after about 3 tokes, your head starts going..wong,wong,wong,wong, and your body disapears where you can only feels your eyes....by then your saying "holy mother of godja! I'm really fkn high!" it is a great up high with tons of energy and great conversation...great thinking smoke once you start coming down...as for the bong....fkn wicked ass shit! ............i can say that this is the best i have ever smoked. Taste,high,smell....top notch...i'll take this over n lights, durban, widow, jack herer, hawaiin, and every other quality bud ive ever smoked, here and abroad...and yes, that does include some of am's finest cafe's...friends that have smoked with me today agree!
