8/10:
Seeing great growth now..lots of branching. I actually fed them yesterday, but didn't update...several have popped some pistils and pretty much the rest are about to, and I'm out of bat guano, so I went ahead and gave them Open Sesame so they'd have more P available over the next several days.
8/11:
I rearranged the garden a little. Moved all four #10's to the right side, the #4's are mostly in the middle...very branchy..the others, mostly to the left are the #2's and maybe a #3.
The big plant on the lower left is an auto, as is the runt, and the plant at lower right. The "fern-looking" plant is actually a Jacaranda Tree (blue fern tree)...it's about to get kicked out...
8/12:
I did a little training on some of the bushier #4's today. I don't have much space to work with, but I was able to do a little to encourage a race for apex dominance.
There were enough pistils on them that I decided to switch the week to "Flowering."
8/13:
I fed them today with ONE and added Open Sesame, Silica, Signal, and Sweet & Sticky.
I sprayed them all with Axiom (Harpin proteins) and Boom Boom Spray right at dark.
8/14:
BAM! They are poppin pistils left and right now...lotsa lovely little cotton tops.👍
8/15:
Day 15 since the flip to 12/12..good progress. The #2's and #10's are stacking up and stretching pretty well and the #4's just keep bushing up.
@ROM101, No doubt about it. I TRIED controlling my environment outdoors this season with lighting and cooling, but technical difficulties and plagues of insects bitch-slapped me back into reality...
@FoTwenny, Ya, thanks! There are a few about ready for a flush, but most will go another few weeks I think...
I need them to finish up because I've now got 21 seedlings growing in a 5' sq ft space and that won't last for long...
@Silverback_Guerilla, We’ve only got 6-9 going. Which is hilarious thinking about it. One gallon pots I won’t get near the colas you did. Master of maximizing space you are sir.
Holy mother of buds!!!
Those look so chunky I love the look of that C4ndyCane what is that strain I’m intrigued?
Also how you get the buds so dense, is that sweet and sticky giving you those dense buds or is there anything else you got to help that?
Thanks man, great grows!
@PharmaZ,
Thanks man!
C4ndycane is the result of an accidental hybrid of Candy Cane Auto from Crop King (a single sneaky nanner) with C4 from Fastbuds. I also got some pretty special crosses of Candy Cane x Amnesia Auto(Seedsman) that I call Candesia.
Major bud swell can only be attributed to proper diet of nutrients and massive shitloads of light. I'm pushing 64w/sf in my space, and during the last few weeks of flower I keep the lights to within a foot of the tops..and as little as 9 inches on the plants that can handle it.
@PharmaZ,
It tastes kinda like if you could distill all the aromas of a cabin in the woods on a cold winter morning..
A little fresh-cut cedar, some strong coffee, maybe a little sweet pipe tobacco, and dark chocolate..
