Looks good man. Have you grown this strain before? I've just chopped. I had PH issues around week 7 and felt like the buds never really swelled, but it actually looked similar to yours. Nice FROSTY buds, but no massive colas. I wonder if that's common with this strain. My second seed never grew any true leaves so that was disappointing because I definitely want to run this strain again. Frosts up every time.

@ForestGreen, well mate you might be right about the ph meter, it was the cheapest one on amazon, i'm thinking of buying a new one because thats the only thing i could of why i'm not getting it solved

ForestGreencommented7 years ago

@GardenOfHerbs, that's strange. What do you think's causing your ph issues? I was pretty sure mine was just a dodgy ph pen and I'd been PHing down too far. I also had really low ph so it sounds like you've got the opposite problem. It sucks I know because I was looking forward to this strain but hopefully it will pull through. The colas on mine just looked the same as yours, but they did bulk up a tiny bit after flushing. I found the trichomes changed really quickly towards the end too.

@ForestGreen, hey mate, it's the first time i grow this strain. i'm having massive ph problems also and have the feeling the buds are totaly not swelling. i flushed her yesterday with FIFTY liter of ph 6.0 water and after that my run off was still 7.0...... i'm super disapointed as i really fucked up. at the moment she looks really bad. sinds you are having same issues i guess its the strain?

Do you think the buds got any bigger in the end? Mine didn't, but they're all so covered in crystals that even the leaf has amazing bag appeal. Has a pretty solid kick to it as well.

@GardenOfHerbs, yeah you're in for a treat brother

GardenOfHerbscommented7 years ago

@ForestGreen, i don't think they swelled much, maybe a little bit, but it's amazing how frosty it is, and it smells soooooo good, can not wait till she is dry 😍

She may not have the girth you wanted, but they are still some beautiful looking nugs! Plagron Light-Mix is seeming to give quite a few growers problems near end of flowering. Seems like you did the best you could, so call that a win man 👌

@GardenOfHerbs, Yeah, Not trying to knock Plagron or anything. Just know that I don't have issues with BioBizz or Organic soils.

@BudKingsGrow, ow really? i didn't know that there were more growers having probs, i'm definitly done with that soil and orderd biobizz light mix again, never had problems with there soil 👊

Hey Man! Appreciate your REAL GD here... Not just the good! I wonder if BioBizz's Light-Mix Substrate which utilizes only Baltic Peat vs. Plagron which utilizes a few different varieties of Peat is making the difference? What kind of PPM are you getting on drainage runoff? I use BioBizz Light-Mix and Nutes on most of my grows and find that staying on the light sides of nutrient schedule leads to safest results. I wish I was skilled enough to really dial in my Nutes to maximum uptake by my plant, but Im also fairly content being where Im at now lol! One day I will upgrade my entire Grow Setup and get as deep into this amazing plant as growers like @DabCrab and @CBD_Sweden are 😀

@GardenOfHerbs, That's so very strange! A high PH like that and very low PPM should not be burning your plants! It is possible though that it's still burn from nitrogen... During nitrogen uptake the plant produces ammonia which causes medium to become alkaline, so your high 7.4 PH might be due to this reaction. I'm actually thinking about trying a run of pure Coco-Mix... From my research, Coco seems to be much more forgiving when it comes to Nute issues. Easily flushing/or adding more Nutes with Coco produces quicker results on plant and creates less stress. But I've never tried Coco, so my knowledge is pure speculation.

@BudKingsGrow, thanks for the compliment 😊wow mate, i didn't even know about the peat, you could be right about that! i always used Biobizz butes with there light mix soil, but sinds i wanted to try Advanced Nutrients i was told it worked better with plagron light mix soil. i kinda thought i would work fine with biobizz, i'm still strugling with nutes to be honest im contantly burning them (i think) or i tend to underfeed. never ever had al these problems when i just used the full biobizz line with their soil. so i flushed her and the ph was way to high. 7.4 and the ppm was only 370 so it's confusing. i agree with you that keeping the dose of biobizz low is the best way to go. especialy the bio grow as is has a lot of nitrogen, in flower i never went above 1ml per liter. you are doing an amazing job btw. keep it up! 👊

@GardenOfHerbs, I'll consider it one day when I have extra space. Until then it's always non feminized photoperiods for me.

I really like the minty blue color of the buds! I really want to grow this one. It’s so frosty. Sweet and grapey sounds delicious. Great work as always! I will be curious about your opinion of AN vs Biobizz.
