This is my first grow !! I barley transplanted from a 3 gallon to a 10 gallon just about a week ago im just waiting for the plant to explode with growth because of me transplanting it to a 10 gallon SOIL:roots organic original. This pheno is a very light feeder ever since I started feeding nutrients it's always had a nute burn problem but I've seem to fix the problem by feeding half strength NUTRIENTS: big bloom grow big flower kiss tiger bloom bembe micro brew sledgehammer boomerang kangaroots I have the whole fox farm dirty dozen box . Will start flowering in about 3 weeks I'm just focusing on getting my side branches to be even with my canopy. Any suggestions or tips will be greatly appreciated.

Hi fellow growers sorry for the pics I'm using my iPhone and this things sucks at taking good pictures. She has a lot of bud sights but their all small hopefully she stacks up in the later weeks, buds also started developing milky white trichomes after I fed it cha Ching from fox farms which is a effective nutrient. She also started wreaking of that lovely smell we all love when I squeeze the buds it gives off a aroma of pungent, skunk, and fruity. Each buds is growing different color hairs in each buds some are white hairs then there's a few orange and brown hairs if any of you have a answer to this a comment would be appreciated overall she's doing very well the fox farm dirty dozen has been a great and effective nutrients to use

flushed* plant last week I noticed the soil wasn't drying out quickly and because I haven't flushed it in a while buds appear to be growing bigger. Buds smell delicious it smells fruity and skunky but it has a after smell I can't describe. This baby's purple and looks like the pistils are turning out purple to I know that's not something to be excited about I guess it's better for the bag appeal

Happy Harvest Day!

(I flowered her out for two more weeks)Plant grew extremely well this plant in veg was a pain in the a** did not like any of the nutrients I gave her I even fed her half strength and she still burned on me I defoliated her time to time lsted her and topped her I was looking to get More yield but she turned out to be really little probably due to many things I flowered it late in the season and it did not reach it's full potential I have 3 more seeds lined up for next season hopefully they turn out better. Buds and leaves turned out really purple buds were really sticky to when I chopped her down 👌🏽.

Plant didn't come out to what I thought it was going to be but no one said it would be easy this is the first plant I ever harvested and I enjoyed growing her. hopefully everyone's is enjoying there holidays. I'll update the dry weight taste and what it feels like and honestly I think it's leaning more towards the sativa side 0

Its not an easy strain for a firsr grow in my opinion. Maybe i do a lot of stuff wrong bit seems that you struggle a little bit as well....okay first time is always a constant experiment...I am looking forward to seeing what it looks like while flowering. Maybe we get a unexpected surprise...have fun

mate i only use half nutes during veg to save on any issue when she goes in to flower and she stop all vertical growth she will go in to producing fat buds then would be a goo idea to try full nutes im doin this same strain now your girls big now and she looks amazing by the way will double or triple in size bro when you flip to a 12/12 if you ever need any help just message me

@UpncomingGreenthumb,mate I told you to ask what ever you want it’s no problem we’re all the same 1st grow it just nice to be offered rather then having to ask but looking at your girl she’s got a good size but also remember every 2 weeks of growth will make a big difference to size of plant and your yield

@@Tryhard, I read that if I put my plant in a 10 gallon I can get 6-10 oz but I know that varys on many things and thank you man I'm sorry I've been asking all these questions I'm just curious because it's my first grow by the way your grow is fantastic I hope my plant looks as good as yours does hopefully you get a great harvest

I think it’s bc she’s not getting enough light to bulk up. If she is outside right now and that’s your only light source I would think about getting an led for supplemental lighting while sun is down

@CaliGrown,and where i live it was cloudy and rainy about 2 weeks ago now it's been constant sunny in December which is crazy but the plant sure does love it

UpncomingGreenthumbcommented7 years ago
@CaliGrown,you may just be right but I'm thinking it was a nute lockout last week the soil wouldn't dry out for almost 2 weeks now it's drying out quickly in 1 week I'm starting to see bud starting to stick out from the leaves rather than seeing bud just grow in between the leaves I'm hoping this is a good sign 😂 I'll have another week diary up in a couple of hours

@UpncomingGreenthumb, hmmmwell ... I think it's all about Candy farming versus Salt farming 😉

UpncomingGreenthumbcommented7 years ago
@JUNGLE_B4RNS,thank you bro since I've nutrient burned my plant I have learned my lesson and won't be doing it again in the future 😂😂 but before this I had one plant that I unfortunately had to get rid of wich was a strain called blue Buddha it would drink any nutrients I have it and it wouldn't burn that's why I think this strain is a light feeder

And by the way. If you grow outside you can never know what the weather is like. I planted the same strain this summer indide and outside. Here in middle europe we had the rainiest summer in the last hundret years so my plant outside made like 1 gramm. But if you have a hot sommer you will have the advantage that the sun gets to the lower part of the plant as well. Which is not always the case in a growbox

The pistils of your plant look all brown on this photo. You should harvest now !
