looks like you will have a pretty high yield. i wish it only took about 3 weeks to veg and flower, and get an ounce a plant, cause i hate waitin too. it takes way to long.

Well you guys be the judge here...

The first picture I have posted is of the seeds that I have bred (White Rhino x White Widow), from two plants that I grew from seed from a breeder in Holland...:lol:

The second picture is of the seeds that I bought from the breeder in Holland....White Widow x 3 at the back and White Rhino x 2 at the front....:-(

My bred seeds are looking much healthier, growing much faster, are stronger and more uniform, and the bought seeds look like shit..and the funny thing is these (first picture) are the children of the second photo...

They have had exactly the same conditions, nothing different and I think the results are screaming at me... My question is, why is this?????:?: :?: :?:

Its called Hybrid Vigor. Whenever you cross two different strains(albeit WW and WR aren't completely different) they will grow faster than some Inbred Line. Im sure those seeds you bought have been inbred at least once. Who knows really how often though.

Hi, I too am using CANNA nuits i have the whole range too, but bought some experimental boosts, I have 2 DWC homemade pvc 5l biscuit tubs modified with 2 air stones, I bought CHA-CHING...an expensive boost that promises huge THC gains :) , and another by advanced nuits which name excapes me now, my photos show early veg state, cos my bastard computer wont let me upload any more files to my RIU profile, I have used 2x 90watt ufo led's @ 2x 630nm and a 150w blue spec ENVIROLITE, for veg, am currently using a 250watt red spec ENVIROLITE for flowering as well as the 2 UFO's, so far fantastic results... I have kept a picture journal of the growth from start to date to finsh and once i fix the bug on my computer i will up load my conclusion, I have used CANNA before and would never stray from them as the results have been perfect evey time!!! check out my pics to see all my nuits... a fair few :) but as i previously stated crap bud is a thing in the past for me! your ladies look great I would love to run 2 or even 1 600 but cost, (of electricity) heat (in my grow cupboard) ..even with a cooltube, is way to high and location of the setup meaning everytime i open the doors to my ladies the light floods the whole room...painted white lol, not cool! I origionaly had a 250 watt hps but thats when i realised to work with CFL's ... not the crappy little ones lol, but the 150's and up... might change again to a 300w dual spec ENVIROLITE, but will need to pay close attention to the heat difference from the built in ballsts. I am growing 2 @tm. a skunk/cheese/kush cross and jack herer, the cross has bloody huge leaves twice the span of my hands... i'd say about 13inch blades and jack is a bigger fuller plant but has no where near the potency of my little cross, how do i supercrop??? is that where i pinch the new leaf tips that sprout out the top of the stems to give 2 cola's instead of 1 or is that something else i have overlooked?? Best of luck with your grow tlk soon from STELTHY

Always good to see another Canna grower... They really are the best products as far as I am concerned... I don't like Cannaboost with White Widow but I am willing to give it another go with a different strain... I also love PK 13-14..

I too am interested in Advanced Nutrients... I've seen some great results from other growers on YouTube using these nutes, so I might try it one day... But right now, its Canna all the way for me... Thanks for the post...:bigjoint:

Of course its a good thing. I cant give you much more information than its good. You can try the search function or google it.

Do you really want to try nutes from a company that purposely splits nutrients that should be ONE package, into multiple parts? Theres no more sure sign of a rip-off than 2 part veg formula, or bloom formulas. They prey on the gullible growers and make them think they need eighteen million different products to grow weed, when its as FddBlk would say "Bullshit!"

Any company out there that makes nutes for weed specifically is pretty much guaranteed to try and rip you off in my book. Doesn't mean they have some good products in their lineup. Just dont get swept into believing everything they tell you.

Finally this lazy strain is starting to show good growth signs... I love going into the tent each night now, I never know how they are going to look...

:bigjoint:

I am going to use PK 13-14 next week I think... Its hard because PK13-14 is mainly used for 8 week flowering plants and I'm adding at least 3 weeks onto that...

Any ideas anyone???

Hi all, I went out to my favourite Hydro shop today and talked to them about a mother tent/vegging room... Since I now have the big flowering tent and my propagation chamber, all I need is my mother tent/veging room.

The great thing about my hydroshop is they will build me anything I need and they don't charge me for it.. They will even help design the system for you if you wish.. They always accomodate what ever requests I throw at them.. And they will source materials from everywhere to keep me happy... Such a great shop.....

I put in an order for a 900mm x 1500mm diamond mylar tent, exactly the same as my flowering tent, just smaller. I am putting a little flood and drain system with 4 pots with vermiculite and perlite in a drain tray so they will soak up the water and nutes from the bottom of the pots...A little reservoir will be underneath the pots with the water pump. I also asked for 2 computer fans for my intake and exhaust..This system will be totally automated. I decided to run a 400watt Metal Halide light to get my mothers nice and bushy... I am going to keep cutting the hell out of the plants to keep them relatively small... I am so excited:bigjoint:.. I am almost completely set up... I can do everything under the one roof, this has been a dream of mine for so many years... Now I can stay at home and grow and just be a good mother to my children...:lol:

Will post pics of my entire setup in two weeks time... So bloody excited...:bigjoint: :-P

Hey guys, getting closer to harvest... I am really starting to like how this plant is turning out...Its fattening up nicely..:lol:

I plan to give it PK 13-14 at 49 days of flowering, its a products where I really can't afford to miss the window, so I am reckoning its a pretty safe time to do it for the longer flowering Widow...

The pics I have posted are of my choice of nutrients, the big tent with the girls as they are today, and my seedlings..

My bred seeds are clearly doing better than the purchased ones:bigjoint:, so I am hoping the purchased seeds will survive and hopefully thrive so I can get a decent look at them...:-( I really wanted a strong White Rhino female...:wall: I already have a White Widow mother.. I have also removed the top of the humidity crib as they are quite established for seedlings.. If they start to show too many signs of stress I will put it back on...;-)

My bred seeds will be sexed as soon as they are bigger and a strong female will make it to my mother tent...:bigjoint:

those crossed seedlings look super strong, so does that white widow on the left and the rhino on the right. the big tent is looking awesome too. the girls look like they are starting to hit their stride. i bet they are stinky too.

The white Rhino are the two seeds at the front and the White Widow are the three seeds at the back, the sad things but I am hoping they will come back... Rhizotonic will definately do the trick...;-)

And yes they are starting to smell, but the carbon filter is working a treat, can't wait to show you my new set up tomorrow...:lol:

Lacy I;ve said this before, But man those bread seeds are looking TREMENDOUSLY better than the store bought :/

I think thats a good think, I would defiantly keep up with those seeds, get them stable and you got yourself a nice strain.

Keep up the good work girl, congrats on the new tent too :D bongsmilie
