Lonely in the garden this week. Not for long though.
Starting to see some fox tail on both the mutant and number 1.
Its time! Flush starts for the mutant effective immediately! She is already yellowing. Number 1 as well is starting to whither and show off some yellow colours.
No amber trichomes though! Just sparsely scattered.
I think this might be the last week for these girls.
@NewfieFarmer,mate are 1st grow is just learning bro.. Have u got it under control yet?? If not I'd get rid and start again after 5%bleach 95%water (hot) every think mate and the out side environment... And get a new set off seeds and go again, try a different strain if your not to happy with that one have u tryed royal queen's seeds there decent all poped that I've planted and bin very easy to grow so far
Some lovely ladies in that tent. So much color and frost everywhere. Absolutely gorgouse. Fantastic work. Keep it going and well wish till the end of the journey growmie.
@Bezzy, I kinda like the idea of the autoflowers. I'm awful careless, and would probably end up reveging it or something. Also I blame alot of the differences on my lights not being even. My light has blue and red cobs. The 2 under the blue were completely different. Perhaps this means nothing.
This being my first grow, I have nothing to compare it to.
I'm not opposed to photo periods, and might grow some in the future. I think I'm going to do another round of these though before I think about another one.
@NewfieFarmer, Truth, sir! I've had several runs of autos, and they have never operated within the "data sheet" of the breeder. I've even switched some to 12/12, just to finish them faster. I have never had a batch like this though, so slow to flower; especially all 4 planted act this way...... slllloooowwww. And yes! I give my monster a gallon a day 16ml/g bloom a/b, 1tsp/g 2-34-32 (flower fuel ftw!) and 5 ml/g MagiCal. This would destroy any other grow I've ever done.....
Thats my beef, auto genetics need to be as consistent as possible. While I think these Northern Lights are cool, I should have less questions at this point in a grow. Wasting energy and time ($$) on a 15-18 week auto (?!), I should just do photoperoid strains. You could veg out a photo Blue Dream and easily yield what your super mutant is doing. Autos sure are neat though and yours takes the prize, brother. That said, this experience solidifies that I'm going back to photo plants after this. Until then, I must tame the automatic monster in my tent and feed it the PAR it desires.....
PS...... Your "plant 2" is a dream and is slightly arousing........
@Bezzy, listen here.
I'm just saying that there's tonnes of advice to follow. You have to follow your own. Follow your intuition.
Manufacturers rating?
Internet advice?
Holy Christ!
The mutant should be on fire now in my basement by all rules of nature. It gets 10 ml a day for the last 8 weeks with Canna pk. Without it, it wilts and yellows.aaaand 10 + ml per gallon of cal mag, just to keep it green.
Thats on top of what I give the others which have got some nute burn from my experiments. But they are tiny in comparison.
My other 2 are completely different in uptake and structure/growrh/smell. Those 2 are gonna be top shelf bud.... I've already sampled. Killer shite! If I can coax my pepper smelling monster to produce trichomes, I'll be ok with smoke for the next year.
But, the monster is slow.
I figure I'll take it down on day 169. Just for giggles, but I don't think she will ever finish.
Hey dude, we all have setbacks and failed successes. That happens to the best. Your plants actually look really good if you ask me. Nevertheless, you must not give up there is always a way to the goal. Move a mountain and you will encounter the sea. I follow you on your way the fox
@Greenfox89, I got one plant that looks close. I probably should start flushing it now.
It's the smallest one, I'll be lucky to get a half Oz offt it.
I took some pics last night will post soon. I'm getting a jewelry loupe in the mail too.
The other 2, looks like they're going to be another few weeks. My mutant looks like it's going preflowers forever.
All 3 seeds seem like 3 different plants.
@Plur420, the best of this grow is yet to come! Number 1 is getting the axe Friday night! The mutant is coming down within 2 weeks. The mutant looks like it's going to be a HUGE harvest!
Good looking Northern lights, I just started mine and hope it’s this same size. Absolute beast you have there.
Good luck the rest of your journey, sir!
@DeepRootGrows, thanks! This big one, I almost pulled up. It didn't really grow until a month or so. Then it exploded overnight. The others look around average but my first grow so idfk.
Hello friend. How are you? I haven't written to you in a long time. Do you still smoke the buds from the last harvest?😜
I'm running out of staff. 😩
I've started a new cycle, check it out!👊
Ok, I'm going to try and fool the plants. No flowers yet. I switched to COB+veg/bloom last week.
I'm not going to lie. I drunk a few tonight and figured there might be a possibility of prolonging the explosive veg I'm experiencing, so I set the timer for 20 hours of light here on out.
These girls seem to have waited for the LST and LOVED IT!
