OK folks...
A lot to comment about these 2 weeks.
Let's start with the controversy. Maybe I will not make friends here, but plant 1 is NOT! polyploid (and or mixoploid).
Sadly, there is a lot of controversial information on cannabis polyploidism on the web. A lot of people are confusing Fascination mutation with Polyploidism, and Whorled phyllotaxy. After extensive readings on all these mutations on OTHER plants than cannabis, here are my conclusions: Polyploidism is havin extra chromosome, and it does not express itself with an extra leaf. This would be having a gene mutation. Now, fascination will make the stem funky with stem and leaf pattern comparable to whorled phyllotaxy. However,whorled phyllotaxy is not fascination. Conclusion are, plant 2 and 3 are having whorled phyllotaxy on a few branches, and plant 1 is having fascination on a distinctive branch. Fascination is caused by environment, genetic or rhodococcus fascians bacteria. It is passable trough cloning but is not considered a desired mutation.
I wrote to Luis at ACE seeds to apologise.

NOW!!!
Plant 1: deficiencies are progressing despite triple dose 12-28-12, Canna coco A+B, and potassium sulphate. It is barely under control. As I am doing No-Till gardening, guess are she is a nute whore, and soil was probably more drained from previous hungry plants that grew in that very same container before. I am disappointed by her skinny main colas and her resin production. I think she is Malawi dominant according to smell, structure and laves.
Plant 2: she is the runt one but that will have the most compact flowers.
Plant 3: she is very elegant with *never seen before* elongated thin bud structure: could she be Thai dominant? She is having the most resin of all.
@sativaman, for Sativa, certainly. Sativa leaves canโt store as much water as indica would. And dying leaves send nutes to buds. There is no way to reverse that. Again, you can strengthen leaves with boron. But I donโt see any point in doing so. By this stage, i would remove leaves anyway.
Buds, on the other hand, have no stomata. Buds donโt release water as fast. Buds will remain green.
ZD feeds okay. Not as lightly as pure land race sativa. But over feeding will burn pistils. These pistils are long. And burbt, they will look bad. ZD would better with moderate nutes.
At six weeks, they are crazy potent already. No issue on that front.
Cheers
@Med_in_Tropic, thank you very much! Can the extreme low humidity might be a concern too? The lowest my meter will go is 16% and it is consistently between 16 and 20%...
I will make a foliar this week end with some organic cal-mag see if it helps!!
@sativaman, i rather suspect there is nutrient imbalance. Either too much P and K or bot enough Calcium and Boron.
These are immobile nutrients. They must be sprayed on to the leaves. Feed them would be ineffective.
I would just spray universal micronutrients once. If not then calcium / epsum salt will do.
But really, there is no need to do anything. There is only a couple weeks of feeding left.
I grow outdoor and wash buds before drying anyway. So I donโt mind spraying immobile nutrients l.
@Med_in_Tropic, Nope. Sorry about the confusion in my journal, as I meant to say that plant 2 was chopped 3 weeks ago. I've edited the post.
Plant 1 and 2 were sampled. 2 is very strong, trippy, clean and long lasting. Plant 1 is energising, very trippy and psychedelic, strong and long lasting.
Pheno 3 will be chopped Sunday.
Thanks @PaulM! Nice to see you back! I tough you left or something happened to you grow... I got lucky enough to grow 2 large pheno out of 3 plants. All 3 are different.
wow, those are some serious huge buds, well done. I would love to read something about your nutrients and water feeding schedule.
keep rocking ๐๐
Well done,both are great.i like that thin and tall structure.looks like one of them stretched a lot but bud forming is really good.this will be potent af
@HighRoller909, oh yes! And they smells like killer A5!! Very happy to look at them: I wish I could have them around my house, as companion plants. (But they would not be happy away from the lamps). Thanks for stopping by!
Just comparing the latest pics with 3 weeks ago... wow, these girls really went for it! Stunning form, the long internodes with those sativa fan leaves along them... ๐
