Hey RIU, like title says short rider grow. Best part you dont have to wait for pics. 2 of my ladies are currently 1 month from seed. Other 2 are 1 1/2 weeks and few days from seed. I have struggled a bit with this strain, my first attempt was with Nirvana Khrystal strain and had reasonably good results although they didn't like nutes at all so coulda been better. These failed to auto after 3 1/2 weeks of 18/6 so now whole grow is 12/12. Anyway, here are some pics of whats going on so far.

Some info:

FFOF soil
2 23w warm light cfl's on the month olds
2 23w daylight cfl's on the little ones
only using tigerbloom after flower
thats it!

well, the thinner looking one from the middle photo above showed balls today /facepalm but the larger is a girl so I guess thats natures balance! Rather it was this way than other way around. So have a healthy girl month and change from seed and 2 up and comers. I'll post some more pics once more has changed.

did you consider doing a seed run since you have one of each... Way better than buying seeds IMO.

I would if I was happy with the results from this strain but considering I had to force flower there really isnt a reason too. I def will once I find a soliud auto I like. Good call though.

Hey guys and gals, little update, my lovely lady is looking great. To recap, she is in FFOF soil and 5 days into flowering. She is currently receiving 1/4 strength tiger bloom and seems to be enjoying it. The other are still growing and all seem fine. Here are a few updated photos. Enjoy!!

Good day!! Now have 2 ladies about a week apart in flowering. I put the other one outside, I wanted to maximize the lights I had and figured what the hell. Other now resides in a nice planter surrounded by new flowers, lol. We'll see what happens. Cheers!!

HERMIED!!! To distressed to go into it now. Was busy looking at the main cola while little pollen sacs formed under the bottom bud sites and the whole bottom of plant was seeds. I will start a new journal when my Kings kush is a little farther along. I'm off to totally clean the growing area. Dont want any stray pollen to mess up the girl I'm working on now. Ahhhh trial and error!!!!
