Tell me about it, my day off and I spend 6 hours tracking down a mystery noise in my mother in laws car.
Yes sir they are, the main colas are starting to grow into the lower buds forming nice fat long dank dank buds. Smells sorta skunky from afar then you bury your noise in it and out comes a sweet fruity smell. Getting some bud off my friend tonight to tide me over for the next month or so when I can load the bong with my stuff. I'm guessing yours are starting to fill out now?

Yeah LA's are almost finished and the RBC in there is starting to form buds. Have 6 RBC clones rooting, The strongest 3-4 will go into flower in 3 weeks or so. Also the topped Ice with 6 main colas will go into flower around the same time or maybe a week or two after. Try and finish them around the same time. I have some TD clones coming will be making mothers of them and those and Ice will be the next batch going in flower.
May have some Utopia Haze coming too.

5/4/11 Update: Cleaned out and set up my yeast co2 generator last night. Completely forgot about the benefits of C02 during flower, should help em pack on the extra weight. Buds are getting wider and denser with the hairs turning a burnt orange/caramel color.
PH is a constant 5.8 (Have to adjust daily as they keep drinking more and more) Temps are 73 in the day and 68 at night with a steady 16 percent rh.

Never heard of it. RBC should have a bluish/purple tint toward the end with lower night temps. I don't think I would spend that much for it. I bought a liter of AN's overdrive for $40 and it seems be doing it's job.

I'm going to be trying GH or AN nutes when I run out. I'm currently using Fox Farm nutes for grow and bloom and using the AN OD with FF Tiger Bloom.
I noticed a difference when adding Overdrive for sure though. It will also be used for now on in the last weeks of flower. May try other additives on a side by side comparison but will be using overdrive primarily.
How are you liking the Sensi A and B?
Hey Niko how tall are your RBC's? and how long did you let them go from germ to 12/12?

Yeah, rbc is spos to have bluish purple tints when in lower night temps. Having trouble getting the temps any lower at night so im thinking that stuff might help bring out the natural bluish tints.

I'll remeasure when the lights come on but last week they where about 3 feet tall. I vegged for a month. I would say the stretch only added six to eight inches. As of the last week there hasnt been anymore vertical leaf growth just, theyve been putting all there energy into bud production. Should give you an idea of when your clones will start packing on weight.

Blu, as a guy that seems to be using all of the additives etc from AN could you please explain how to use the veg nutes and there additives and the same for the flower nutes if you dont mind. I understand the A and B parts easily. what I dont understand is all the additives and what each one does. I'd like to convert to AN nutes but ive been lazy about the research lol

My cooler is 100 Litres. I don't fill it completely but about 3/4 full.
Sensi Grow/Bloom A & B calls for 4 mL per Litre at full strength. I started out at 2mL per Litre and have worked up
I ordered all of my nutes from eBay. Cheaper than buying from AN. I'm pleased with the nutes and to me the price was not that bad.
Additives include:
B-52 - for vitamins (veg & flower)
Voo Doo Juice - healthy root growth promotion (veg & first 2 weeks of flower)
Big Bud Liquid - promotes bud growth (weeks 3-6 of flower)
Overdrive - Helps to pack weight on the buds (weeks 5-6 and then last 2 weeks of flower) I'm using for weeks 5-7 then water for week 8
Bud Candy - (flower) gives sugar to the plant and helps with a sweeter taste (I used it for 2 weeks and stopped using it because it was causing bad rez buildup)
It will give all bud the same flavor. My strain is supposed to have a sweet taste without it.
All of these get mixed at approx. 2mL per Litre and I mix them all together during rez change only. I do not add nutes throughout the week.

Dude, thank you. It was mainly names like "voodoo juice" that had me going wtf is that for? but reading this it sounds easy as can be. I'll check out ebay like you did and see if i can get em all for a decent price. Yeah I wanna use bud candy or some kind of carbohydrate but I don't want my roots getting all slimed up.

I see the benefit of Bud Candy for giving your plants sugar. But it is meant to make your bud taste better. Isn't that the reason we buy good seeds?
For the strain and flavor.
I think Bud Candy would be good for bagseed or something but not a good strain. It will make all strains taste about the same.
It stained my roots and caused bad buildup. Not for me. I bought only an 8 oz bottle of that and glad I didn't get a big one.
I research and read the reviews from other places than this site before I buy anything.

Yeah I realized the person who taught me to grow that actually uses the stuff uses it in soil so he doesn't have the issues us hydro guys have.
