Crazy heavy nugs. Even the top colas can not support weight. White Critical is standing up only with help of stakes and wire. A big nugget flopped over with out support. I may have an early tester. White Critical packed weight fast and is smelling lovely.
It had been 6 weeks since White Critical started flowering. She is almost ready for harvest. Started trimming off big fan leaves. No more anti bugs spray. Without the fan leave mites and thrips have no place to feed on. Remaining sugar leaves are laden with gummy trichome.
No feeding of fertilizer. At the beginning of the week, I gave yogurt to her once to get LAB action going. LAB is Lactic Acid Bacterial. It is known to promote dankness. And most of the LAB are listed on label of drinking yogurt.
From now all it’s straight water until the end.
Overall, I haven’t paid much attention to White Critical compare to other plants. Yet, she put out large chunky nugs. Comparatively, White Critical nugs seemed heavier than another Indica plant grown at the same time. It took much less effort with White Critical.
White Critical is a winner in term of production and ease of growth. However, my key criteria are effects and potency. Lets see how she measure up in a couple of weeks.
@Med_in_Tropic, A wise man once told me :
"For every disadvantage there is an advantage."
Not sure what the advantage is in having acid rain and radioactive soil tho 😂
Ofcourse it's having the knowledge, being able to come with solutions and keep learning/ using the brain that's the true advantage 🤓
@Smartie, approaching dry season. Yeah!
Wet season was to find good clone mothers for this time of the year.
By the way, I put up mostly new strains (to me) in diaries. I can’t be bother to write about
A mate in South Africa has to contend with acid rain and radioactive soil. Somewhere in the world, someone has it worse.
clones that I have grown for the umpteenth times.
In a way, I am making growing look harder than it actually is.
There are weeds that grows largely unattended in Thailand. And they do just fine.
@Shooey, 33 C and 90% RH 😀😀😀😀
I grow in hot (fertilized) soil and soil was wet. Damping off bound to happen.
The survivors are usually strong enough to take on outside rain. Then I can propagate with clones until I find something else to play with.
A couple more weeks, I’ll be in my dry season. I’ll put a few clones into flower for my primary grow period.
And this grow should be just in time for my indica window.
@Smartie, I was fuzzing with my plants this morning. I found a healthy 9 weeks old plant with single blade leaves. So here it is. Top colas has some pistil but I am outing this one in flower soon. So, keeping pistil in this case.
These buds are gorgeous. I love your garden! Must be a nice view with all these strains, clones, veging and flowering together! wish I could be in the tropic
Thanks @sativaman, oh we have our season. This is the prime time. Tgis corner is m sanctuary from work an ld even family.
Tropic has string sun but short hours. Our winter is nice. But in a month or two it’ll be nearly 40 C. Then very wet.
Natural plants to grow would be your 9 months long Sativa. 😀😀😀😀😀.
There are always trade off. We just have to adapt to nature.
Sweet med. is back strap molasses similar to your sludge? It’s a bi product of sugar cane refining as well.
Plants are looking great mate, so close to the finish now! 🍻
@Shooey, I use both. Molasses is for magnesium, sulfur, iron and a bit of calcium during flowering. Plus the sweetness in molasses fed microbes in the soil.
The sludge has even more micro-nutrients and more N.
NPK ratio is like 1-1-1. One and one and one is three. Got to be good looking 'cause he's so hard to see.
Seriously, sugar sludge is ass strong as cow manure.
Thanks mate @Shooey. This one was uneventful but got big. Wish all my grows are like this. Problem is I like Sativa and longer grow means more issues 😀😀😀
