Going nicely although I’m pretty sure it is one of these in particular that has the bugs. Either gnats or root aphids, I dunno. It’s not something I have dealt with before. This is the reason I have been taking so many macro shots of them, just to check really close up that there are no bugs crawling in the actual buds and there are none on any of the buds I have taken photos of, which is all the ones deep into flower.
Once iv harvested the ones that are deep into flower I will re-assess the damage and assess whether I can take the other autos to flower before pulling everything out replacing the media and bleaching everywhere.
It’s a bit of a pain in the ass - that will FULLY teach me for being unprepared and buying soil from a garden centre. I do it one time and it totally FUCKED my grow! As I said, serves me right!
The good thing is the damage isn’t huuugely severe right now. Iv laid quite a lot of traps which are working but I know it’s not going to fix it.
If anyone has any advice please do let me know…
I must admit I am pretty chuffed. I have a Mars hydro ts-1000 to test. Should be pretty interesting actually because I used a ts-600 for quite a while and I also use a tsl-2000. Should be interesting to the see the middle model. I set aside a small tent, fan/filter and some nice zamnesia seeds or I still have lots of Fastbuds seeds knocking about. I have a pack of gorilla cookies I have been meaning to grow so we will see what I go with!! Massive thanks to Mars Hydro for putting their trust in me! Hopefully I don’t disappoint. I must admit, it’s actually really interesting talking to the guy about what products they are about to release as well. I’ll be REALLY very interested in the next product he was talking about!
I just received a message from someone at mars hydro saying they would like me to work with them which would be ace. I'm a cheapo so iv used their stuff for basically my whole grow career and have done a bloody good job too I just say!
@SwissKush,that’s awesome! One of mine looks a bit straggley and it getting a beautiful fade going now, reminding me of trees in the autumn! The other one has literally just started to colour up on the very tips of the leaves. I do leave a window open at night so when the lights go out at 7am they get that 10 or so degrees temp swing. I find that, in combination with feeding water only gives plants a real nice fade. Yeh the haze smell has piqued my interest for sure. I’m not a big fan of the effects of SLH but the taste is just fabulous. Hopefully you are right about the dankness!
@Rabidreject, they are certainly super dense! My fastbuds Afghan is in box in my outdoor bovine barn on mtn, has been in the cold the entire season so the buds aren't as large as their Gorilla Cookies when grown in the summer, but the density is 3x as much! Mine are turning purple because of the cold, its looking like ill go for about 105-110 days! Your buds are really nice size! The haze smell excites me, usually means its dank as shit. I hope to grow it again inside, but have other Kush's in line first. Rock on bro
@SwissKush,OH GOOD!!! I thought my nose was at the total other genetic spectrum for a second there! Iv def never grown such fat dense buds before either. Really lookin GB forward to these two!
@DEVS_GENETICS,Yeah, I just had another ;look actually - def both in flower just one is ahead of the other - as long as you have the space, bigger is better in my opinion,!
@DEVS_GENETICS, yea, thinking about it iv noticed similar. One of them is throwing out a lot of pistols now and is getting bloom only nutes but one of them has less than half the amounts of pistols. They are both still in stretch for sure though.
This next update I do, probably tonight or tomorrow will be my frost flowering entry yeah.
I’m not hugely bothered as I have others in the pipeline due to be finished before them…
They all run at least 1 if not 2 weeks over their suggested time for me anyway
looks good my man, same with mine take forever i thought it was down to my temps early on and a bit of stress. but yeah really dense buds, looking to chop her next fri-sat!!
@DEVS_GENETICS,EXACTLY! I’m bored of growing desert smelling hybrids really. They are nice but these are classic. Same with the OG Kush. Not a huge yielder but the terps, my god, the terps!
