Also have a couple skunk / Kerala and barney's liberty haze. The haze is trained in a six gal bucket and looks healthy however it seems stunted. There are a gazillion nodes but flowers seem thin. Maybe its a late bloomer? First three pictures are liberty haze second few are skunk. Skunk is not very frosty, im also concerned about the nitrogen intake of one due to its pale/yellow tint. Any tips or ideas are welcome. This is my first grow im very happy so far, and still curious.

Hvydutyfruty, I have 3 HWFP going right now, and getting ready to flip. What's the stretch like on these? Mine are currently 15, 16, and 17" tall, and I don't want to miss on weight by flipping too soon, or have them get too tall for my 600. Here are mine from last night. Also, how many days from seed until flower?

The fruit punch was put in a wet paper towel 111 days ago today.

How much did they stretch?

I dont really have anything to compare the stretch to. It stretched approximately 35 % of its height when I flipped. I have a six foot tent and im hesitant to put any flowers under direct light due to burn. Im running a 1000 watt hps with no glass shroud. So im not cooling as efficiently as I could. You can control stretch by getting your light close to the veg, I didnt have that ability due to equipment.

Wow. Short stretch for a strongly sativa dominant strain. I flipped mine last night, but now think it may have been a bad move. I really thought these would double during flowering. Did you also veg under the HPS?

I did veg under hps which was maybe an inexperienced move but it's my first go so I'm constantly making adjustments. I mentioned 111 days from seed and they're 44 days into flower now so I flipped at apx. 70 days from seed. Your girls look nice . where did you get your beans?

Got the HWFP from Herbies. I vegged under an Ushio opti-blue 600w, and fliwering under their opti-red hps. I flipped mine at 43 days from seed.

Yours looks like a tall girl. Wish I had a 1k...

Edit: I'm guessing yours didn't stretch a lit during flower due to the hps and height during veg. I might still have a good stretch after all.

Your totally right. Especially due to their squat height now. My girls were def taller and were not going through a light intensity Chang like your will. You should see some serious growth.

Just starting to harvest two of these feminized beauties:

- 5 gallon DWC
- Fluorescent only for 5 weeks of veg (lights kept at 6-12 inches from tops
- 600W HPS (Digilume ballast, Ushio Super HPS bulb) for flower - 12-18 inches from tops
- 55 days of flower - harvesting now - one of them needs another 3 days or so to finish up.
- Advanced Nutrients Sensi w/Grandmaster nute program, plus Great White and Hygrozyme
- both plants topped
- 4x3 grow area (small closet)
- temps 75-85 degrees, occasionally higher (ventilation and heat control are unfortunate side effects of the grow environment constraints (power limitations, ventilation challenges, heat), humidity has ranged from 35-50%.

Observations: I almost lost one of these to root rot about 3-4 weeks into flower, but saved it with some judicious cleaning of the environment (bucket, rinsed roots, and some Hygrozyme and Great White got some new root growth), however yield was impacted during the recovery, as expected.

Heavy trichome production - just touching these frosty nugs leaves my fingers sticky through several heavy washes. Yield looks to be 200 grams (wet and trimmed) from the plant with root issues - the second one has some monster tops (12-14 inches x 3), so I'm expecting 300-350 grams (wet and trimmed).

Overall, I expect ~5 ounces of sweetness from both plants after cure. No smoke report yet, but will post once I get a taste.

The buds look amazing - lighter and more airy, easy to trim, and literally look like they were rolled in sugar. I'll post some pics..

2sides2me, sounds like a successful run even with the troubled plant. Please post some pics at stages of growth. I'm curious to compare mine. Currently on day 13 of flower. Here's a link to my journal:

Post any tips you have in there if you have time. I would also love to hear a detailed smoke report.

Pics!

Those look really good - I'm assuming you topped or FIMmed them? I'll post an early smoke report by the end of the weekend, even though they won't be cured by then, but at least I can get a taste.

I flushed with AN Final Phase in my hydro setup, followed by another water change after 24 hours, with the full flush lasting 7 days - a mix of spring and distilled water only.

Expecting a smooth smoke, but will know for sure in a few days.. good luck with the rest of the grow - I'll be following to see how they turn out, as I'm interested to see what you get for yields.

Sounds good. Looking forward to the report!

I harvested my ladies due to an onslaught of spider mites. I was able to get most of the b.s. off of my leaves and buds but there are still remains of lots of mites. I thought I would try water curing as that takes any material off the flowers including bug carcasses. I can only find a few posts regarding water curing but they both provide the same info and the process, to me, makes perfect sense. I purchased distilled water to cure a portion of my crop to see whats it is all about. I am sacrificing visual appeal and smell , however im not trying to make money off of my buds, trying to put them to good use! I have decided to air dry the majority of my crop for safety sake. I have never water cured and their is always potential for disaster. Couple pictures of the drying room. And a close up of the heavyweight fruit punch.

Hello im new to this, follow me on instagram cflgrow

You should be getting more than 5oz's in that space per grow (every 3 months) Grow one plant and top and scrog, you should get about 10 oz's per grow or every 3 months.

so i havent had access to internet as i had temporary moved, but are on my 3rd grow of heavy weight fruit punch, and 1st grow of ripper toxic (these are going fantastic). Fruitpunch are beautiful smelling, very intense high ,(reminds me of bubble hash high) , smooth smoke. theyre 4.5 weeks in flower, but i had them out side vegetating and have been battling mites now, pics of them in bath brushing mites off. They have actually had a hard life this round, many problems with new room, work and mites, but ill do a journal next round.

they are under 2x 600 watt hps

starting to get on top of mites.
