Super impressed by the growth spurt in the last week! Almost time to transplant into a bigger pot! She will be getting the same treatment as the others in terms of topping/training.

Super happy with how shes training, im able to keep her nice and flat. Shes a big drinker! Her pot goes dry a day or two after a feed (2ml/l BioBizz-Grow) She seems to be really sensitive to environment conditions, if my RH runs a little low she starts curling up. Its crazy to see how each plant is different, but its

First week of flower has me working on the plants for hours non stop, constant leave tucking and defoliation to ensure i make the most use of my light! She started to hit her flower stretch towards the end of the week, almost touching the scrog net

The Amablue cheese showed sex this week! Very happy to get a female from these regular seeds. The flower stretch has been impressive and this girl has plenty legs, keeping her in check by tucking the larger shoots under the net

The flower stretch has been crazy! i am forcing her under the net and right now everything is organized chaos! She has shown no signs of slowing down her stretch any time soon, so im going to keep tucking her until the end of this week, she'll be set free to stretch her legs

The stretch has finally ended this week! Definitely learned a lot with my first scrog attempt, i will definitely tuck the plants for longer next time :) Slowly upping my bloom feed as the plant needs it. This girl really doesn't seem that interested in packing on some weight. She's supposed to be done in 8-10weeks. Time will tell :) Ran into slight N tox, so ive backed off on using the grow during flowering, ill continue to watch the plant and see how she reacts :)

Week 6 of flower started off great, finally seeing some browning pistils on her. Added the "Fire Juice" flowering supplement to my feed too. Going to start pushing her by upping my bloom feed for the last couple weeks! lets hope she surprises all of us in week 7-10 😁 ending off the week strong. She's bulking up nicely now, very excited to see how she finishes 💪

She is pushing nicely through week 7, getting bigger by the day! Upped my bio-bloom feeding to 6ml/l to try and push her as hard as she can go! Still no sign of any pistils dying and swelling Finally seeing some feint nute burn at 6ml/l bio-bloom, she has ended the week off nicely 😅 added a single 50W full spectrum COB to my cab, now totaling 170W LED. hoping it helps finish the girls nicely 😬

Still super impressed by this girl, she keeps growing and pushing white pistils, im going to be slowing down her nutrient intake by only feeding once a week with runoff and then keeping her wet with plain ph'd water. She has started week 8 of flower really well! seeing a good amount of brown pistils on day 52, very keen to watch her darken out and swell! Pistils continue to brown and die out, week 8 bringing some good changes! She's ended off week 8 really nicely, pistils are noticeably going brown. and shes prepping for her last push

Just added a 50W full spectrum COB, i have noticed it getting really warm when its been on for awhile. Whereas my QBs don't really get hot at all. Is this normal? Its actively cooled with a heat sink and fan,

pretty much normal because the COB i'm guessing has a 90° reflector which focuses the light and therefore the heat. the light is good for the plant but the heat not so much, especially if it's actively cooled maybe double check everything is working correctly, if so then yes it is normal for the focused light to generate focused heat. hope this helps !

Week 9 is here and bringing some more brown pistils! i'd say roughly 40-50% of the pistils have gone brown. I backed off nutrients in week 8, only feeding ph'd water when her pot dried & a full nutrient twice per week. Seen little growth thus far, think she doesn't enjoy getting too many water only feeds, adjusting me feeding from here on. We're starting week 10 next week and she's showing no signs of finishing up!! Ive harvested the girl next to her in the Scrog and now have all of my lights focused on this girl. Really exciting to watch her finish up in these last few weeks

How often do some of you push your girls past day 70? My current grow still has 50% white pistils 62 days in!

hey there stonedbuddy, basically "the pistil method" is not really a good indicator because after the chop anyway all the pistils turn brown. The only way to really tell is a 40x magnification minimum 60x is more comfortable, and look at the trichomes and base it off that. I had a really long gorilla glue, and at the chop it had mostly white pistils but fully cloudy trichomes and after over 3 months of flowering it was an "all up"weed... so check the trichomes, not the pistils.

10 weeks in and so sign of finishing any time soon. This girl just keeps putting on weight!! Watching her ripen up has been so much fun. Peeped at trichomes on day 70 and seeing a good amount of cloudy but not many ambers. I plan to hold off flushing her for at least another 7-10 days

Damn! Week 11 is here, always somewhat disappointing when a strain runs longer than the breeder suggests. She is starting to foxtail ever so slightly & showing some real frost now! apologies for the lack of updates this week! life has me busy!

week 12 of flower is here! She is showing signs of N & calmag deficiencies. i have not changed my nutrient schedule so i assume shes starting to fade out and finish her cycle Couple days into her flush, watering double what she normally drinks Seeing some nanners pop up on her recently! last ditch effort to continue its life cycle

Shes coming down! Spotting more nanners each day so im calling it! The patience game is over. 13 weeks of flower. In the beginning i thought something was up with this plant because it simply wasn't flowering, but as the weeks went by she slowly kept on packing on weight.

Very hardy strain, put her through alot in the beginning and she did really well! Started throwing alot of nanners so i had to pull her slightly earlier than i wanted to, even though i was 13 weeks in flowering.
