[Dr.Amber Trichome]

Very kind words Amber....thank you. Thos are all skunk #1 from sensi, you know its funny...you can grow out a 10 pack of thos beans and have 10 different looking plants lol. They take around 11/12 weeks from seed...you think they aint doing much when they start to bud then they just start going mad and stack on the weight..very quick finishers and not bad on yield but for me its all in the taste and high which is why i like this strain so much.

oh yeah, i remember you mentioning how wonderful the lemon skunk from sensi was. I grew out lemon skunk but they were a gift and i have no clue where they originated from. I must try the sensi strain which you highly recomend. Lemon Skunk is a wicked 12/12 strain, it kickedass over my 12/12 super lemon haze. Most of the same strains i grow all look different as well. Its funny isnt it. Im very glad you were able to find a strain that you enjoy so well. Its very exciting to see the buds pack on weight. My buds are doing that right now and its kinda overwhelming actually. Its a beautiful thing to experience.
Can you tell me please how you finish you grow? what are you flushing, non flushing methods?
take it easy jimmy

 

[jimmygreenfingers]

I have always flushed and always will...its a topic of debate i know as people say your starving your plant but the fact is your not if you only do it for a week or so your plants should have enough stored nutes to see them through the flush period, ofcourse im only talking hydro here..i have never grown in soil. All i do is reduce my ec when its about two weeks from the chop, ill continue feeding until the last week but by which time my ec will only be around 0.5ish, the last week is nothing but water. Yeah that sensi strain i grow is just plain old skunk #1, the lemon strain ive done was from DNA, i vegged that one and it was a cracking smoke i have one on the go 12/12 from seed but shes a bad un lol, shes one lanky bitch and nowt to look at but she will still give me some decent smoke for xmas......and shes all mine no sharing this bud out.... xmas or not.

Some pics of what got chopped last night, still got a cab full to do...... thos will come down in a few days i reckon, one of which is what i would call my perfect 12/12 from seed plant...if they were all like this girl i would be happy camper. Ill show her off later if i can find me camera lead.

Yes, flushing is a very heated debate. Its funny how sensitive some growers are about the techniques they use. Personally i have flushed, not flushed and drowned my girls all in trial. I will NEVER NOT flush ever again. I ruined my harvest by NOT flushing. The herb was super harsh and i dont like smoking or vaping it.
Drowning was awesome. I will do that again.
When you say you grow in Hydro.. do you mean coco? LOL.. i have had a similar mix up with the sales rep at the hydro store. I didnt recall ever seeing a DWC setup in your images. maybe i have just been mezmerized by your beautiful girls and never looked down at the pots?hahah
Thanks for clearing up my misunderstanding with stains. Lemon Skunk DNA and Skunk #1 sensi.
Even though your lemon is ugly I would like to see a picture of her one day if possible. haha, thats funny about xmas bud sharing jimmy. You too sweet not to share, im sure it will all be gone by the time the new year is here.
take care

is that all one plant in pic 8 mate.......cracking job as ever jimmy.....

 

[Kybudz]

Thank man . Im sure if I can have half of the sucess you're having I will like it . Thank you

 

[bigbud2012]

i got a growbox thats just over 3 n half feet and 2 n half feet square ive grown from veg for about week and half then switched to 12/12 yes i know this isnt from 12/12 but almost ...and i agree that the 12/12 causes the plants to grow smaller and compact rather than long and lanky and ready to pop out the top of ya growbox. i know this because i vegged a few plants a few years ago in a big cupboard and vegged for to long and they shot up almost hittin my ceiling and by the time i flowered they was male ....lol wished i started from 12/12 back then.....

 

[mantiszn]

what do you guys think? del? jimmy? ambs?
thinking mag.. but its strange.. its only affecting the very top bud (usually starts lower doesn't it?), rest of the plant seems fine
ph is correct and i've upped the calmag twice now.
if it is mag def will it go green again once corrected? or just stop it from spreading?

 

[jimmygreenfingers]

Pretty sure its not MG mantz, first thing i thought was iron def. Ive never had it tho its just from memory, also thought it might be light stress but looks more like a nute def the more i look at it. If it is iron its early stages.

Dont ya just hate that bit. Gotta do mine during the night as the wife hates the stink, so its cups of teas, plenty of herb and late night movies lol.

Yeah i can remeber the first crop i ever did in nft many moons ago, i never flushed...didnt know anything about that. The smoke nearly made me vom, as you say the smoke is harsh and tastes nasty. I have flushed ever since, yeah when i say coco im talking hydro, ill be posting my nft grow here some time in jan so you can see how well it performs. As for my lanky lemon skunk...........................yeah i might let you see her

 

[jimmygreenfingers]

is that all one plant in pic 8 mate.......cracking job as ever jimmy.....

Haha i wish.......cheers man.

I love the way the house smells while trimming.... they should make a damn candle

When its chop time, thats when Im at my most para. Stinks too much. Mantz, that looks light light stress. Im a master at light bleaching. lol

 

[mantiszn]

I did have my suspicions ... It's my first time on the hps .. It was sitting at about 8" but heat didn't seem to be a problem.. Hand test was barely warm and my thermometer at can canopy level was at decent temps throughout. Reflector is a cooltube attached to vent so you can touch the glass and its not even warm. Light too intense maybe?

I've raised it already as much as I can and they don't seem to be getting any taller anymore so fingers crossed

[supersillybilly]
