Yea I don't just go hacking away at the fan leaves Lol. I just chop the ones that are blocking light over a new shoot.
Even then I try to tuck them away under the screen. Fan leaves are beneficial to the plant but so is spreading it across the screen. It kinda evens out to me.
Now could you just imagine if you let the screen get full before you flipped to flower they would be even more monsterous. Lol! They still look great so props to you!

Sent Sannie an email telling him that I have had a 0 for 10 female from the Extrema seeds I purchased from him. I will wait and see what he responds back and says. I am hoping he will send me some more seeds for compensation. He now has them as feminized seeds for the same price I paid for the reg ones a year ago. I'll let ya know what he says.

If you guys have never heard this song. You don't know what you're missing! One of my favorites.

I have been looking at Marijuana-seeds.nl for some seeds and they seem to be having some great deals on some of their seeds. My problem is deciding on which strain to purchase. Has anyone purchased seeds from this company? They seem legit and have pretty good reviews. $45 for 10 OG Kush seeds or $27 for 10 Sour Diesel sounds pretty damn good to me. I'm not necessarily getting those strains but just using them as an example.

I think most of us can somewhat relate to this song. The high cost of living ain't nothing like the cost of living high.

Not much is going on in the grow and don't wanna bore you with the same pics. So I'll give you some music. Lol!
El Monstre is showing some hairs and still waiting for Extrema and bagseed to give confirmation. Sannie wrote me back and said he would give me 5 free fem Extrema seeds with my next purchase from him. Sounds fair but not sure if I'm gonna go back there. Simply for the lack of strains. But I was looking at his JackBerry & Sannies Jack
. Decisions Decisions!

Ordered me some Jack Berry (Jack Herer x Blueberry) from Sannie. I have been wanting to do a purple pheno and this is 50/50 purple/green so if I can get a purple then I will have to keep some clones. He is sending me 5 feminized Extrema seeds as well. I have never smoked the Extrema but I have read nothing but good reviews on the strain. I'll prob wait a little while before I plant them cuz I plan to move after the first of the year. We shall see what the future holds. On another good note I pulled the bagseed out cuz it was a male but the Extrema is a female so I have the El Monstre and Extrema females. Extrema is an 8 wk flower and El Mon is a 12 wk flower so luckily they are in 2 diff rez so I can control the nute levels when the flush begins.

I'm looking forward to the Jackberry grow as well. I'll run 2-3 of the JB and 1 fem Extrema at the same time and try to get a purple female JB.
They are both fast flowering 8 wk strains that produce good budz and yields. I'm stoked!
My only suggestion would be Marijuana-seeds.nl I haven't purchased from them but they seem to have good prices and good choice of strains. I read a few reviews and they all seemed to be legit and have good genetics. Sannie is good and trustworthy from my experience but not sure if he has blueberry or not.

Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! Mine was great as I got to spend time with family and seeing their smiling faces.
I just ordered myself a late Xmas gift (Tri-Meter) which I should be getting in about a week as well as my Jackberry beans.

I tried to take some close ups but they didn't turn out so good. El Monstre in the front Extrema in the back.
The stretch done for the most part so now they should start producing buds and stacking up.
IMO if I didn't trim off a bit of the fan leaves that were blocking light then I would not have this many tops.

I'm not 100% sure of my PPM and pH cuz my pH meter has been acting up and it's a pain in the ass to get a cup full of water from under the rez lids just to check my numbers, so that's why I bought a Tri-Meter (in the mail). With 2 rez and one meter I should be able to leave it in one rez and since they both have the same exterior rez then the numbers should be pretty damn close to each other.

hahaha yeah i know. i think i have done it again lol. i flipped my vk 3 or four days ago after about 3.5 weeks veg. dropped the screen on at the same time and now four days in she has already filled about 1/2 the screen. i doubt she will stretch as bad as the buddha but this screen is a lot smaller than the buddha screen and i dont have as much headroom in this tent either.if she fills the screen too much im going to experiment with supercropping to keep her short.
