Monster maker

sativafiend Well we are still at the the beginning of week 2. So not sure i git my veg time right on this .😅

sativafiend All ticking along ok. Introduced some predator mites as a preventative. I will be transplanting planting to larger pots next week. Light increased to 40%. 320w 90x90 tent Evo Leds .

sativafiend I am going to defoliat a little as they grow. The first time I grow a strain I like generally not prune it. I will let it stay it natural self,to see it's morphology. These fabric pots are supposed be 10 L but till fill them three thirds took 15 lites of soil. Figure that one! Im adding Cal mag as my local water is nearly like RO water its so clean. No cal in the kettle after a few years. Along with the use of LEDs it means adding a huge amount to keep up. I wanted to try this crazy hills formula to see if I needed to add less . I have found it comes back with a very low PH after nutrients are added. I think I will have to get some decent dolomite lime or something to add to soil or coconut just once to keep ontop of it.

sativafiend I changed back to AN , I had to raise the Ph with crazy hills as it seemed a bit acidic.Light is being I am increasing light by 5% every two days.

sativafiend Everything moving along. Been having Cal /mag issues due to moving house and different water supply. Its very low EC here. I would not recommend Monster maker for see of green as it grows very wide quickly,and likes to spread out. Great for scrog though. Can't smell anything from these girls yet.

sativafiend So,I have found a few male flowers on lower branch of kosher haze. It has pollinate a few branches already, which im not happy about. I stopped using fem seeds years ago. But some strains are no longer available in reg form.

sativafiend So i have found one female kosher haze has some male flowers tucked away in the lower branches. Took that plant out completely as its covered in seed. The other plants have a few seeds forming, but luckily I got it before I pollinated the whole area . The monster maker are pretty uniform in growth, short,very wide plant and stocky. No good for sea of green, great for training, they get super wide and bushy. I have been taking large leves and strangly shoots off during the whole grow, a little almost every day. The Monster maker is using alot of nutrients, that's why the mother earth bloom is added to them. And quite honestly I think they could take more in some elements.

sativafiend I lost a few photos from last week as I had to go away .

sativafiend I didn't enjoy growing this one. It was not what I would normally choose . I thought it would have a more pine haze smell, with the sour from the diesel. The didn't yield so well ,although I did have a cal mag shortage in mid flowering. The high was was sativa like,but light ,ok for daytime use.

sativafiend She was a pleasure to grow. I started with four ,but due to width I had to reduce to three. All looked similar in height,and not much variation in phenotype showed. I did defoliate a few times due to a large amount of shade leafs, she took it without problems. Scent was manageable, not stronge . All indica leaning showing permanent marker heritage the most.
