Very excited to start this grow! I love fast buds genetics! 1st time growing Skittles. Dropped 3 beans into some water for 24hrs then into damp paper towels placed into zip lock bags and placed into try with heating mat. Kept the temp between 70-80 degrees. Beans popped in 2 days!! Soaked 2" rock wool cubes in clonex and great white solution and placed the beans in them and back into the tray.
It is day 8 since they popped. 2 look good 1 is a little small but ok. I had a little trouble dialing in the environment but were ok now. I had a couple 8x8 rockwool left over so I cut them into 4x4 and popped the seedlings in after dusting the hole with some great white.
This week the 4" Rockwell cube's went into the 6" net pot lids and covered with hydroton and placed on 5gal buckets.
They are looking nice and green and growing fast! Pheno 3 Is lagging behind just a bit.
These are looking great! Very happy with the progress here. Added nirvana, bud candy and big bud to the mix. Flowering has begun! Will do some defoliation and low stress training on them to open them up.
Pheno 1 and 2 are really taking off! Pheno 3 is behind a little bit. Pheno 2 iis the biggest of the 3. I increased temp and humidity and they have responded well!
Pheno 1 and 2 are getting chunky buds and pheno 3 is really busting up but behind the other 2 in bud development! Environment is dialed in as best I can and light defoliation all the time.
Wow, I love the way pheno 1 and pheno 3 are very different. Strange thing is pheno 3 started out at a slower pace and has winded up a Bush compared to pheno 1. Pheno 2 met with an accident as I fell on her. I don't want to del on it. Ok, so enough of that. Look at the colas on pheno 1. Damn!
-Stopped big bud and started overdrive for the final weeks of feeding
- pheno 1
15" tall with fat colas
- pheno 3
20" tall round bush with many bud sites
- pheno 1 came down yesterday. Will post harvest update next week after pheno 3 comes down
- pheno 3 had turned out better than I thought it would. I think I needed to feed her a little heavier. The 2 phenos grew completely different from each other and had very different needs. Pheno 3 has an amazing fuel smell to it and rock hard buds.
- next update will be total harvest of both plants
- pheno 1 came down
- 98gr wet
- hanging dry for 7 days or so
- pheno 2 will come down next week
I will have final harvest today when pheno 2 comes down

Started out with 3 pheno and all 3 were completely different in structure and in taste. Lost 1 plant to an accident. Pheno 1 was short and fat and tasted sweet. Buds were on the airy side but firm to the touch. Pheno 3 was huge and abundant with hard buds. Tasted dank and sour.
How do you approach pk on these ? Or in my case top shooter by house and garden ,
I am going in at half strength at the moment is that right or should I go in full strength ??
@LockDownGrow, I don't know much about your nutrient line as I've not tried them but going full strength at this point could be riskier than the reward. Personally I use bloom boosters very very lightly in conjunction with my regular nutrients lightly at this point in my grow if I haven't started my flush yet. (I use soil, however) Best of luck to you, I'm excited to see this finish!
@LockDownGrow, I'm not very familiar with house and garden product but im assuming it's a late bloom promoter. In my last 2 weeks before flush I use advanced nutrients overdrive for late bloom pk enhancement. I always use half strength nutrients unless I run into a stain that requires more. Sometimes less for strains that don't need much at all. You can always add more
@LockDownGrow, I feel she will be a huge producer. Look how tiny my pheno 1 is. It's about 10in tall but the buds are Fat! Good luck with your grow brother!
