Days are passing by and these ladies keep doing their part to cheer me up! Every one got topped, PCK x KC 1 was defoliated and a few leaves were tucked here and there,
Got some minor issues showing up as progress goes on. Bubba Kush x Malawi's are doing great but does not have the same vigour as the PCK cross. They are slower in vedg. and woud need 2 more weeks before flip so they get to grow to a good size. On the other hand PCK cross are more established and plant 1 looks almost ready for flower, in a 4x4 with 4 plants. (...)
PCK x KC pheno 2 is a fussy princess complaining about my soil. I am about to chop her down. Every one is having a good time except for her: twisted new growth, dry patches on leaves.. I was trying to be positive but she is not improving since transplant.
Loosing a plant is always a last resort option. I am giving her a last week to find her way. Purpose of this grow is Bublawi, PCK x KC are freebies. Every Plant Matters (!) but here my main goal is to grow Bublawis.. Let see how tings go this week!
@HighRoller909, Seedsman used to be good but orders don't end up making it thru customs anymore
stealth just doesn't cut it unfortunately . I may try one of the other "seedbanks" but because they won't send original breeder packs It is unknown whether you are actually getting what you paid for??
@sativaman, the truth shall be revealed only after curing. I think some terpenes stay only for a short time and some are shy. The shy terpenes comes out only after a month or so i. The jar. Sativa is some time like this.
I smoke joint so not a big fan of kush. I think kush is great with a bong.
@Med_in_Tropic, I did not know about Katsu. Just saw a vid on youtube he explains the difference and origins of pre-98 Bubba kush and the Katsu cut. then he comments: if I give you the 2 different bags to smoke you would know instantly they both are Bubba Kush and pronably won't be able to identify witch is witch..
Happy to hear that!! Characteristics should be very similar...
@Med_in_Tropic,...
Truth is I feel very sad and beyond disappointed!!!! I was growing this for taste and effects, this special cut of Bubba is not what I expected. ACE just broke hart!!
Dear friend, you may have mite infestation. This could cause more trouple on some strain than other. Ace did listed resitance to spider mite on PCK x KC to be "average-high". For me, if it is not very high then it would need attention.
Well @sativaman, what works for 6 legged insects may or may not work for eight legged mites. I had a heck of a time with mites at the moment. Comes with the wet season.
@Med_in_Tropic, Oh yeah.. I forgot.. also have on hands some diatomaceous earth spray but it shoots like a jet it is designed for ants nest.. (Ants don't care about diatomaceous heart and it did not hurt them)
@Med_in_Tropic, I sure hope it is not mites.. never had any mites issues indoor. I cannot see any bugs or signs even with the jewellers lope. No signs of web or honey like with aphids.
From my experience running these LED it still can be a Magnesuim problem. Really crossing my fingers for a mag deficiency. Letting the soil drying out a bit and tomorrow I will drench it with a triple dose of epsom salts and see what happens.
Otherwise I have some 'Doctor Doom Spider Mite Knock Out' I used it on my basil plants a few years ago: all leaves turned black, dried and died..π°π± Last resort insecticide...
@Med_in_Tropic,..Yep!! in fact I did not realised the Bublawis are advanced as well!! (Gotta say that pre-flowers started very soon after week 8. I am not counting days from flip to 12-12 but rather when I detect firsts pre-flowers).
@Grey_Wolf, I am not quite sure now mate! Just went true defoliation and they smell like Bubba! (great stickiness already!) Stem is thick and sturdy not like old Sativa would be. I would love any of the combinations: Bubba would be one of my favourite Indica and Malawi my top Sativa. Cannot wait see the outcome!!!
