Two different phenos came out in the end. Four grew out beautifully into the scrog net. The other two looked a bit different to anything I’d seen before and they took longer, but in the end they’re looking big and beautiful too.
I picked Critical because I wanted a large yield with minimum fuss. I wasn’t disappointed. I was surprised by the two phenos that came out completely different to the other 4 plants. They grew and looked very different to any other strain I’ve grown so far. But they grew fairly well in the end. Took longer and didn’t yield anywhere near as much, but they seemed to want to grow their own way…
A real shame that one of the big ones started to die as soon as I reduced the nutes - I’ve been trying the bud from that one, and it’s not bad, but the buds needed an extra 2 weeks or so to fatten up and mature more.
The three other big ones came down at the weekend. They had completely filled a 1.2x1.2 space. I needed three tents to store it all for drying. I’ve never had to work so hard before for a harvest. It was a full day’s work. I’ll need help for the trimming!
So the two weird phenos are still growing. Honestly, I would’ve liked to wait another week for them all, but I desperately needed the flowering tent. So the harvest isn’t even finished yet… This story will last another month!
That looks very promising! Nice setup! 👍
My Critical loves it in the autopot.
Next grow I’ll try it with organic nuts and amending the soil. I’m a bit tired of adjusting the PH all the time and as you mentioned murky waters in the tank.
I’m using H2O2 at the moment to keep things in check in the tank.
@Green_Dream, Samurai nutes are really clean, looks like very little cleaning will be needed at the end of the grow. Last time, I was cleaning the tank out during the grow it was getting so dirty, and the pots reeked at the end.
Mate, looking nice. You will be ready in 4-5weeks with mad yield as it seems. Double the nutes for mega yield for one, one and a half week from now on than go like you would normaly go and you will have 20-30% more weight dried. Keep the good grow. HG 🤜🤛🤝😎
@SaKeZC, I’ll be doubling the levels of PK, but reducing the bloom base to compensate. Less need for nitrogen in late flowering I think, and more need for PK.
