Beginning of week..
Keeping the nutes the same this week.. She really seems to love where she's at.
This girl is a beast! The trichomes literally multiply by the end of the day! Visibly!!! Dont even get me started on the scent when you rub your fingers on them.. Smh! I can't wait to see the colors. I find its very easy to help them turn colors at the end by just keeping the bottle I use to water in the refrigerator.. Literally.. A 1L bottle can last me about 2 or 3 days at this point. But I can notice she is drinking a bit more lately. And she's only gonna end up drinking more.. I think the Floralicious Plus and Flora Nectar FruitNFusion are really helping her step it up a notch.. Maybe its just the genetics.. Or maybe its Maybeline.. I mean those 2 extras ive been adding lately.. I love the Kushie Kush from Advanced Nutrients.. I used it ALONE my first ENTIRE grow with not many issues.. And it smells just like some good dog food that my dogs would love lol.. Not even joking. Anyways.. Lights out.. Time to burp some jars for the night...
Just the next day..
And holy shit the trichomes are gonna be covering the whole plant at this rate! Omg the fucking smell!! I cant get over it! Literally like grapefruit!!! Like pure citrus.. I cant keep myself from repeatedly rubbing the trichomes just to get a nice wiff lol.. I would like to see what ETHOS autoflowers are about.. Hmm..
Mid week..
Lookin lovely, as usual.. The citrus smell is already starting to linger around the room when I move her around to water. Shit, I'm gonna need a carbon filter lol. As much as I would LOVE for the room I sleep in to ALWAYS smell like this.. I can't have it lol. I was adding 2ml of Kushie Kush per Liter.. But Ive been noticing some nute burns on the tips of some leaves.. Not bad burn.. But definately beginning to yellow at the tips.. She's still pushin along and doing AMAZING things! So far I LOVE this strain!
End of week..
Just look at the pics at this point! Even the top view pics! That coloration is the trichomes! She is such a frosty bitch! I love it! The citrus scent is starting to come with some other normal cannabis scents.. Lol. But still so fucking fruity and I feel like I'm gonna get a burst of Vitamin C when I smoke this!! No lie. Just.. Fucking.. Wow...
12-12 from seed.. Middle of week 5. Plant is topped at 3rd node and 1st node is also removed.. Leaving only 2 nodes (4 branches).. In 12-12FS, is there a preflower phase? Like a week or 2 of just preflower.. Then after that the flower stretch and whatnot?? Anybody know???
If you 12/12 from seed the plant won’t switch to flower right away it will still grow for about 4-6 weeks before showing sex.
After plant shows sex it will start to pre flower for about 2 weeks. During this time the plant will stretch usually 100-300%. Then plants will start putting on buds.
Growmies!... Is Neem oil OK to use in coco when 6 - 7 weeks into flower? Pests are in the medium, not the foliage. I read that the plant can absorb some taste/smell from the Neem.. Anybody have any experience with drenching medium with Neem this far into flower? And results?...
No I wouldn't do that. A little dawn soap and water would be better than neem oil and just enough to wet a couple inches down as soap contain Phosphate. Cheers
@Harukisan,
Thanks growmie.. I think she could have produced more if I would've actually vegged her.. I was impatient one day, was already flowering a plant and popped this seed.. So I just rolled with it lol.. But I wish I could've vegged her longer.. I think she could have yeilded a bit more.. But still happy with the results.. I think most of it was in the genetics. I can't wait to start another! Got 9 more of these seeds!!!
@Docteur_8,
Have you seen my plant being grown in the suitcase.. A little under 1 sqaure foot of space.. 8 tops under 3 e27 bulbs?? Its named "*TC*" its just a couple of bag seeds that I crossed and feminized.. Bout halfway thru flower now.. But it seems pretty promising so far
@BermudaCower,
I dont think it "tricks" it.. The size of the nugs is just genetics.. It is bigger than a solo cup.. But this isnt gonna yield 80 or 100 grams or anything.. Maybe if I didnt top her so early on she would have.. But I think that growing in cups only restricts the vegetative growth.. Once in flower, the plants genetics are set to flower how they are gonna flower.. Ive done a few cup grows in the last 2 years.. This isnt the only one.. Many have stopped growing in vegetative growth.. But once budding I dont see any difference in flower.. Thats why Im doing the white widow auto in a 9oz cup in another diary.. If the buds come out about the same. Then I think my opinion stated up may be the case.. Still testing this theory tho lol
@BermudaCower,
Oh and to answer the question "why?"... Idk.. Lol.. Just to see if it can be done.. It actually saves alot of nutes.. i think at least.. I can use 1L bottle of nutes/water in 2 or 3 days in veg and 1L in 1 or 2 days in flower.. It was just 12/12 from seed so I figured she didnt need much room for her roots.. She filled the cup up pretty nicely tho!
@Pizzarolls,
Thanks growmie! I told you! You gettin pumped got me pumped! I think she senses it and is pumped, too!! LMFAO! Man.. Don't flower too early whatever you do lol.. I wish I wouldnt have done 12/12 from seed with this one now.. I need to be patient and stop poppin more beans while I'm waiting on one to finish lol but yes.. This girl is queen of DANK in my book so far!
@DoDrugs420,
I like to refrigerate the water for the last 2 or 3 weeks.. And only water RIGHT before lights out.. Helps the colors come out even when its hot asf and cant get the temps down for shit.. Just giving cold water before lights out seems to do the trick too.. Kind of a hassle to rememebr ypu only have 15 mins to get it ready if you haven't already.. But other than that.. That's my go-to instead of putting a shitload of ice cubes on the medium and then have to worry about pH and runoff and whatnot.. Was alot easier since this was a cup grow too.. But yes she was some DANK!
@Ferenc,
Thanks gorwmie! This is my first time with ETHOS.. And will not be the last! I can't wait to grow one of these in a gallon fabric pot! Once I'm finished with my current grows I'm gonna do a 3 - 4 plant grow once I get my new tent and light setup.. This one will be 1 of the 3 or 4 plants for sure! Such amazing genetics!
@SommerVirelli,
Thanks growmie!.. Yeah, I know how important the airflow is.. And she is producing some dense nugs so she is gonna need some good airflow for sure.. Thanks again growmie! 🌱🌿🌲💥🔥🤤🤤🤤 mmm she is gonna be so tasty!!! The smell is so incredibly insane!!!!
@SommerVirelli,
I have NEVER smelled cannabis like this!!! I can't imagine what other magical things she will do from now until harvest! Such a bad ass strain.. I've got to check out more ETHOS for sure!
@Pizzarolls,
Thanks Pizzarolls! Lol.. Damn, now I legit want some pizza rolls. I'm in love with this strain here.. First time with ETHOS.. and for sure will not be the last!
@SommerVirelli, I was thinking the same thing.. She's stretching now. I'm still probably not gonna start counting flowering weeks till next week tho mostly cuz I'd rather harvest a little later than too early.. I'm still trying to find my sweet spot when it comes to harvesting time frames lol. Thanks growmie!
Just coming back to this.. "Hey.. don't you wanna go down like some junkie cosmonaut?.. a million miles bellow their feet.. a million miles.. a million miles"... love that song... but it reminds me of my junkie days.. been clean almost 4 years thanks to cannabis 🌱🌲🌺🔥💨👌.. I let this cure for a really long time like 6 months if not a few longer.. and wow.. just as amazing as it was when she was first cured.. just an amazing strain all around.. taste.. high.. it made me a bit paranoid.. but I had just got back into cannabis.. wouldn't cause that for me these days.. it was still enjoyable af.. just an update while I jam to the song for a few rounds.. lol
