Myco....I just heard that Gage does not hold the Ocean Beach cut anymore from the OBRipper cross. Those beans are beyond rare bro. 
I have 4-5 females and 2-3 males. F2's coming up. Now more than ever there are reasons to make your own beans. If you find a great medicine then why not? Same goes for Charity which was, from what i have heard, some great medicine. There is a pheno of the Charity, the pine tar pheno, that is very highly regarded. I have a pack for us to work with with.

Don't give it any Cyco for awhile. Not even a tiny amount. Just water it with the ph'd water when it is the container is light compared to when it is heavy right after watering. Get to know the difference. What kind of water do you use? ppms?

yeah i make sure to wait for the pot to be light and i have a moisture meter too. started out using bottled water but now using tap water. i have phUP and phDOWN and a ph pen so i can monitor the ph of the water. what level do you reccommend?

also concerned about the amount of time it takes for the pot to completely dry out? takes over a week. the soil temps are at about 22-25 degrees celsius. added perlite to the mix hoping that would help out a bit.
was thinking, when i repotted the plant, i soaked thhe soil in the pot i was going to use with the tap outside.. maybe doing that has fucked up the ph of the soil ive transplanted it to?

ANYTHING from shantibaba at mr.nice is straight fire! I grew out only 1 of my reg med man beans I got a more sat dom phenol almost ibl looking tbh, but asskicking genetics! I would also recommend saving any males or pollen from any decent male pheno's you may encounter! Before I grow any Bodhi im gonna give soma's gear a try it seems sooo sexy. Man I love this thread.

No more water until it is dry. Then just very little amounts. I'd keep my ph between 6.4-6.8. It is most likely from a touch too much water. The nutes didn't help either. If you just give it the plain water for a month I bet it will be fine.
As far as genetics go I wish someone had told me to get Gage Green's Starlet Kush for one of my first runs. It is a very easy to grow plant. Stays short and bushes without doing anything. Handles transplants, water variances, etc without blinking. Two phenos exist from what I see. One is more pure indica and one is a hybrid with a touch of sat in the leaves. I see it on the males too. I would count on some real dank flowers from these.

Buy it from this place. Safe bet. Tell Jay, the owner, Gandalf sent you. If you do buy from them let me know before you do. I can give you a tip.

When you goto the sites main page a box will pop up in the lower right hand corner. If Jay is online you can ask him directly. He is usually online during the UK daytime hours. I have heard it is a pain in the ass getting things into Aus. Is this true?

Assuming you grew from ceed, what do you all do with plants you know you won't smoke and is not a great phenotype? I have one that is 2/3 of the way through bloom and I just don't like her.

i have read that people have lost their seeds in customs. mine arrived within a week, hidden inside a bicycle wheel tube lol. but i got them that is the main thing. i havent gotten one plant past as big as this one is now. they are quite expensive on that site though? where are you in the world?

You mentioned you have your plants under a 250 watt bulb. I think that's your problem right there. Based on those pics, you are dealing with tiny seedlings. The intensity of that light is too much for them. Move them under some fluorescent lighting for a while. Once they develop a few node sets and get some roots under them then you can move them back under a HID light.
edit: Is that light a cfl? I assumed you had a MH bulb. Still, try moving the bulb further away from the plants even. They require very little light until they pack on some foliage and develop some roots.

its under 250watt cfl bulb. will try using lower wattage bulb for a bit?

Well-Known Member
Yeah, I caught that it was a cfl after I posted. I still can't help but think that the light intensity is too much. Stunted growth and leaf bleaching are symptoms of this. I've done it to plants before myself.
How close do you have the plants to the bulb?

I keep seedlings under 34 watt fluorescent tubes until they're about 4 inches tall, and have a few node sets developed.
I could be out in left field with my advice here too. I am pretty high.
