Looking great.

So rootbeer Kush...

That Panchota is definitely fattening up well. Ten days from now and those colas should look like one solid, massive, nug. I predict you harvest nearly 1/4lbs from that single plant so long as it goes for like 65 - 70 days. Indeed this strain is showing both color and flowering vigor.

Here's a wild way to name it.
Suppose it tastes like rootbeer when cured. Rootbeer is basically sarsaparilla. So you can call it Sensisparilla... Or you could call it Sioux Medicine Woman after Sioux City Sarsaparilla.

How are you planning on finishing these plants off? I see some of them look like they are doing a little natural autumning, so watch your PK levels with them to be sure they get the maximum potential. Green fading to a yellow purple usually indicates that your plant is consuming a high level of phosphorus. As you creep into the end of week 5 and the beginning of week 6 this is a common time for nutrient companies to suggest a pk boost with reduced nitrogen and calcium levels. The Ripe you have is probably perfect for that and I expect you should be using that calculator to add up to at least 1.2-1.4 right now. Those plants have a good fattening up period to get through and they will need some fuel.

After week 6, day 50 or so, it's a good time to really drop those levels and get that natural ripening. I have faith you've got this under control and continue to be impressed with the quality of your garden.

Here are some pictures of my mutant Sensi Star top colas at 22 days from 12/12. The color is totally off, but whatever, I'll get some clear ones tonight after the light is off. As one of the few plants I didn't manage to over feed this weirdo is definitely a keeper. Aching for micro the whole time, I'm starting to get the whole garden dialed in, especially this little diddy.

Snow, you calmed a few of my nerves man, thanks. I was going to ask if the yellowing off was natural at this point. Looking at the leaves it looks pretty natural, it's either that or a lockout, but it looks natural enough.

Tomorrow starts the begging of week 5 but the plants looked a little thirsty this morning so I started with the Ripe and Hydroplex feeding. Although a day early in the weekly cycle I'm sticking to my feed -> half feed/molasses -> pH'd water -> feed etc.. philosophy for now. I watered today with:

16ml Ripe, 2.25ml Hydroplex - 818ppm/1.63ec

I'll lower the levels down to 1.4ec for week 6, 1.2ec for week 7, and flush from then out.

It's better to error on the side of caution for sure. If you keep a good record of this grow it'll help you do those strains the next time around. They could be hungry, they could be bitching a little bit, and they are probably perfect, but you'll know in a day or two for sure :)

Figure your second grow is going to benefit from everything you do this time around. Either way it is a good thing.

One of the 2 seedlings didn't make it, it would rather grow in a loop back at the soil.. the other is still looking sideways, hoping it figures it out soon :/

The seedling that made it is finally looking up, still waiting on the 3 seeds to crack, been about 12 hours.

Kryptonite is shifting from yellow to a purple, purty :D

I've seen a few of those mutant calyxes in the flowers around the garden, mostly on the Kryptonite.

Quick update! There was a hydro shop having a grand opening this week in Long Beach (Long Beach Hydro) and there were vendors for a few different companies outside giving away some free samples. I didn't want to seem like a whore so I didn't go to all of them.

For buying a shot glass with different measurements on it (mL, fl oz, tsp, tbs) I got a 4oz bottle of Soul Synthetics Amino Aid, 4oz bottle of Roots Organics Big Swell, 4oz bottle of Roots Organics Trinity, 2 2oz packs of Roots Organics Oregonizm XL, 1 oz jar of rooting gel (random companys, forget), 8oz spray bottle of SNS 17 mite control. This all came in a 1 gallon smart pot as a bag for it.

Outside was Extreme Gardening, Clonex, General Hydroponics. Went to the GH booth and got 2 32oz bottles of their FloraDuo (one each, A and B) for free, wow. It's actually formulated for MJ specifically and is GH's newest thing. Went to Clonex and got a 2oz sample of their cloning gel (something I've been missing in my grow).

All in all a great day, transplanted quite a few plants up to bigger pots, used the new Clonex gel to take some clones (had to), planted the 3 WW beans that cracked (4 total now), and fed all the ladies. Cheers!

I was looking it up. Couldn't find enough info on it.

What are the nutrient levels listed on the bottle. NPK Ca and Mg please :)

Oregonizm XL:
The species of microorganisms in our product are specifically selected for fruiting and flowering plants with a tolerance to heavy fertilizing. Mycorrhizae colonize the root zone, forming a symbiosis with the plant’s roots, massively increasing the size and effective surface area, facilitating greater nutrient uptake, resistance to disease, and increased tolerance to drought. The beneficial bacteria and Trichoderma in this unique product also produce plant and root growth promoting compounds and protect against pathogens. Oregonism XL is incredibly versatile and effective in potting soil and hydroponics.

Made from 100% recycled material. For soil & soilless gardens.

Allows water to evaporate more evenly. Auto-prunes roots & prevents root circling. Creates a dense & fibrous root structure. Allows evaporative cooling in hot climates & provides thermal insulation in cold climates. Root Pots are both ReUsable and Degradable. Root Pots last for multiple seasons of gardening, and begin to break down after about 3 to 5 years as roots begin to break through the container. Root Pots are designed to allow roots to breathe. Root Pots promote vigorous root growth. Unlike plastic pots, Root Pots are designed to break down and return to the earth after multiple seasons of use. Root Pots are not tapered like plastic pots, so they stand up well to strong winds and heavy harvests.

Root Pots can be used in a variety of applications: Great with drip lines and hydroponic flood trays Plants thrive when roots are allowed to breathe Only Root Pots are ReUsable and Degradable Let Root Pots be your choice for containers Made from 100% Recycled Material.
