psh they got fucked up by the sun, like I thought they would. maybe ONE of them survived. but like I said, the vegging ones are kicking their ass . . . .

like, it's grown maybe an INCH, whereas 2 of the clones are almost 2 feet already . . . ..

if I ever want to do something like that, putting out big vegged plants, they HAVE to be vegged under a HPS otherwise they'll just get fucked over by all that weak pre-established growth.

I expect the SK to get atleast 4 feet tall by the time they start budding.

I have a northern light plant that's already almost 4 feet tall and is probably gonna hit 6 feet by the end of the year, it's gonna be fucking ridiculous. the other northern light is just behind it ahaha. it's off the fuckin hook.

ps. I'll take pics today if I have enough battery power in my camera to snap every plant . . . will let you know in 30-45 mins.

pics are coming!!!

FINALLY HERES SOME DANK PICS

Sweet God clone

Sour Kush:

THC bomb X bubblegum (think it needs more N, I'm buying nutes today don't worry )

SK

Northern Lights

SK (that had an MG def, + a drainhole that we just discovered 2 days ago.)

The Church!

AK47 clone

HUGE NORTHERN LIGHT!

last 3 SK, last 2 are gonna be the monsters




you can tell the very very last plant is the Diesel pheno, and the 2 before it are the bubba.

however, I've noticed a 3rd phenotype that seems to be Bubba, but it has green stems instead of purple stems, and slightly different leaves, weird eh? look at pic 4 and pic 10, those are the two I'm talking about.

edit: and the Sk are more like 1.5 feet tall, and no I didn't top, topping would make my life impossible at this point because that strain is already so bushy it doesn't need it.


and I know what you mean by topping to bush out a plant . . . I nkow people who got 3.5 lbs a plant that were only 4 feet tall, but about 5-6 feet wide.

yeah it was my disesel pheno that didnt make it and had the mag. issue!!! those look great man not just the sk but everything.. the n/l too!!! pictures 4 and 10 are the same pheno!.. trust me when it all cut and dry those 2 are gonna be identical!

yeah dude the one that has the mag deficiency is the diesel pheno as well, but it's definitely recovering just fine.

yeah mine died.. its looking like the bubba pheno is a lil more hearty outdoors... andit takes the heat { 90 degreese plus} and intense ass hot summer july sun like a fucking champ!!!!! also high humidity!!! nothing hurts that fucker only helps it!!

same with the diesel pheno too, as long as it doesn't have any deficiencies or problems, it's growing faster than both phenos!

but I do prefer the growth patterns of the bubba pheno, much more equal and beautiful.

edit: we've been hitting the low 100s the past 3 days and they've been soaking it up!

we have yet to hit 100 yet... hope we dont this year 93 and 88% humidity plus are hot enough for me.. lol

the plants should be able to handle such temperatures just fine provided they've been watered well and are in the ground.


it's so cool though man, in the dirt outside, they grow up to several inches a day . . . so literally every time you go out and look at them they look different, especially at this stage.

I'm buying veg nutes today, since they;'re rushing now this is the perfect time to get it to them.

yeah they get big after a heavey rainfall too... im still feeding miracle grow for veg.. i think its like 24-8-10 or some shit... got alot of urea based nitrogen in there!!! lacks some other shit like calcium, mag. sulfur... but thats why i water with well water!!! hahahaha its got all that in there!!!

 

[poplars]

yeah I water with well water too, 7.0 ph, that's probably why it always turns out so great every year, the more you feed it at 7.0 ph the lower the ph goes and they can absorb the most at 6.0, so it must work perfectly like that

edit: man I'm really stoked to see how htis NL turns out . . . I've never had a plant THIS big at this stage in the game . . .

it's growing like an inch a day or more, it's intense as fuck . . . . this is gonna be insane . . . hopefully it finishes in late september or something that'd be badass . . . .

The light should be a sick upgrade Howak. Welcome to the HID world. How are the girls likeing the light swap, mine always take a couple of days to a week to get used to the swap from floro's to my 600w.

Poplars, those plants look great bro. Cant wait to see them in a month or two.

 

[poplars]

yeah thanks integra they're growing so fast, I expect most of the SK's to be atleast 4 feet by the time they start budding, so it will be amazing . .

the NL is going to be like 5-6 feet when it starts budding

well water is the lick when it comes to benificial minerals and such!!! well water, rain water, and clean river, stream, or pond water is the best water to use imo
