There's a Wookie in da house!! lol,
There is good and bad in all seed breeders - You will read mixed reviews about them all..

Dillweed man,

There is only one word that comes to mind when looking at your plants and set up -AWSOME dude!! How long till you harvest them babies?
:peace::twisted:
 
Well if you are that confident and in the mood to experiment then try and guava nectar.

My question would be why?

Backtrap molasses is chalk full of nutrients and minerals because of the process by which it is made (cooked).

I would wonder what essential properties guava had to compare with molasses. I would also wonder if the chemical composition of the carbohyrates (sugars) in the guava would be beneficial or easily available to cannabis plants.

I guess I would wonder why guava nectar wasn't the rave already on these forums if it worked especially well, but hey, who knows?

I say do a little research and see what your conclusions are from there. :joint:

Yeah I mean FF trio (open Sesame, Beasti,cha) is $35 and the 3 Liquids are like $20 a bottle. As for the Molases, black strap cost me $8 and Brer rabbit is half that.
What I do is put 2 tbl in a gallon of water and leave it for 24hrs. It dissolves Molases.
Once I started using molases I never went back.

i put one tablespoon per gall.....
to dissolve i mix the tbl. with i cup of hot water... then mix it up with the gallon .... room temp water...dissolves instantly.....

Thanks for stopping in! My projected harvest date is September 21st, which would be 70 days under 12/12.
 
Day 84:
August 24, 2009

(Day 42 of 12/12)

We are now six weeks into the 12/12 cycle which means there are roughly four more weeks of flowering to go. The colas are now all really fattening up and the different strains are starting to smell differently. The Lemon Skunk smells like a cross between lemon dish soap and a dead skunk, while the White Widow has that classic spicy but sweet fragrance to it.

Pics 1-6: normal shots of inside the tent.

Pics 7-8: a shot of the biggest cola so far and a size comparison to a 12 ounce can of beer. Keep in mind there are still four more weeks to go!

Pics 9-10: shots of the same White Widow I have been showcasing since the start of flowering. She is the prettiest plant I have ever seen in person.

Dill, great work. What were the heights of your plants when you switched them to flowering and what are their current heights? Also, are they still growing vertically and if not at what point in the flowering stage did they stop growing vertically?

I 'm getting ready to flower a few WW plants and want to get a general idea of what to expect so I can plan ahead.

Thank you.
 
Thanks for all the kind words, especially from those of you who are new to the thread!

500th post!

They were all between 18-24 inches when I began flowering and they are now all between 28-40 inches. They stopped vertical growth about two weeks after the switch to 12/12.

Give them as much HPS lighting as possible while still maintaining comfortable temperatures. That is the main thing. Some people think I'm crazy for having two 1000 watt HPS lights in my tent, but I have a great exhaust system that keeps my temperatures around 78 degrees. This is a MUST if you want to have a big yield. :weed:
