Extraordinarily happy ladies.... and nowhere NEAR ready to give up the ghost. OG's pistils are still all white, buds continue to grow... at least another month with her I think!
GG is another story - her pistils are starting to turn and she's MUCH fatter than OG... but I still think I've got about a month to go with her... I just don't know... I'll just let her tell me when she's ready. :-D
02/13 - It was bucket change day for GG ... had been having trouble keeping her pH up and this morning it was in the cellar so I didn't have any other option. A batch of fresh nutes and a good pH level should please her (although she hadn't been complaining at all!)
02/14 - After the bucket change, the pH nudged up a bit so it's not quite stable yet... it was 6.4 this morning which is acceptable but I know GG doesn't like it that high so brought it back down to 6.2 for her... OG is rock steady in both EC and pH ... both ladies are very happy!
@Kruidenvrouwtje, oh yeah... it's not even me! LOL! It's apparently of a lady in Havana who hangs out on the corner with her girlfriends and they all smoke stogies ... I chose her 'cause I loved the flowers in her hat! AND she looks a bit younger than me... LOL!
@GrowingGrannie, Well, you know what they say.... growing weed is more addictive than smoking it... so the big blunt on your profile picture is just for show π
@Kruidenvrouwtje, no, I really don't! I tried it back in college in the 60s but wasn't all that impressed ... I could get higher WITHOUT it so why pay $5 for an ounce of it when I didn't have much money ... and I've tried it here recently but all it did was send me to the couch - and it was VERY mild shit... so no, it's just not something I'm into! I just love the challenge of growing it...
What the crap is pony-tailing? Lol , sounds like an eventfulish bucket swap . But you corralled that pretty quick. Lookin forward to seeing how your ponytailing works out... lov seeing the little mark near ur name showing u updated .. hope they settle into the new buckets n like their hair do!!!
@GrowingGrannie, awesome news. Was curious how it was working out for you. Now thinking I'm gonna start my youngins tomorrow morning . 6 hrs for a few days will be doable now I'm outta work for a bit.. see how it works for my photosp's , think it should pan out similarly. Shall find out. But that's great , gotta see how the next few updates go for you!!!!
@Grow4Releaf, hey! hey! Just wanted to update this thread and let you know that ponytailing is really kind of cool! It's actually a bit like topping although you don't get two colas out of the one... but it REALLY allows the side branches to catch up with the main cola which has been a terrible problem for me in past grows... one gigantically tall cola and everything else sweeping up down in the basement! LOL! I like it VERY much for autos.. give it a try sometime - but again, don't leave the ponytail on for longer than 6 hours (I think I had said 8 but that's not right)... I only had to do it for 3 days ... :-D Cheers!
That OG is definately a leafy girl. She could just have a longer flowering time in comparison to the GG, just a thought (in regards to the development). Looking great regardless π.
Looks amazing. I've been MIA learning from mistakes π, but I'm back and made a transfer to coco in an attempt to remedy my over zealousness. Great grow as usual, looking forward to these girls hitting the scales!
