(SORRY FOR BAD PHOTOS THE WIND WAS HOWLING)
SHE WILL NOW BE KNOWN AS THE LADY IN THE BLACK DRESS
Ahhh the current apple of my eye
And why not, look at those absolutely beautiful flowers - She is gorgeous!!!
I mean... she is just an absolute beaut
Now for those of you who have followed and for myself when I come back to reference...... It has kind of been strange not to fight any really bad problems
Everything is chilled with the plants, im just making sure they are happy and they really seem to be
Saying this, my diaries might seem like echoes of the others but since they all share a similar habitat and similar timing it is easier to copy paste what is going on here
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you can see my lady in the black dress is not a wide girl, oh how I wish she didn't suffer all the previous issue so I could get as many flowers as possible out of her
She is skinny and HOT and I think she will stay that way for the rest of her life
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In terms of nutrients:
My nutrients don't have a schedule at all, their medium (i guess one could call it that) is based on natural processes and such so I don't think I can do too much damage with feeding these nutes every second watering.... I think
I am sticking to the one best for plants that are more mature and flowering as the bottle states.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Leaf Miners
Oh these are sneaky little bastards, i deal with them and then they come back
They don't seem to do to much damage, they just irritate me...like uninvited guests
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Powdery Mildew:
I seem to have it very under control, the pro fungus which covers the leaves and stems and such looks like it has taken control and there are only small traces left... one more tactful spray should do the job
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My main problem now is the weather
Knowing id fight weather with outdoor growing its been a bit of a tossup
the days so far have been RAIN, RAIN, COLD, RAIN, SUN, COLD, RAIN, SUN, RAIN, COLD,RAIN, SUN
The one seed i popped in the ground as an experiment is looking horrible due to weather so I am stoked I can carry my main plants inside when needed and keep them safe
I am still waiting for summer and we are past the solstice already... shit is weird
We have had torrential rainfall which as much as our dams need it... kinda sucks for the plants
I have upgraded my light at night a bit to help with the lack of sun.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right now though im just super stoked i got these plants to where they are....Flowering
I have never ever grown anything in my life so I am happy I got this far and only lost one or two early along the way.
Onwards and upwards I say, and keep the learning circle going
@Shooey, Thank you
Nothing worth doing is worth doing half ass
Working hard to keep the ladies happy and growing, learnt so much and looking forward to finishing these off and starting the next batch
My new seeds arrived a little while ago :D
@FreshCoastOrganics, Even me
I had a look at the other Diaries on here (i know it is limited) but I have not seen one
I hope for some good looking budz to go along with the colour
Amazing colour bro!
Had 2 of these indoor, they turned out to be completely different phenos, none gave purple/Black buds like yours will. Be careful with humidity!
Good luck mate!
@OutlawzExotics, Yeah personally i find it quite exciting :D Like a Banana Blaze lucky packet
Yes the humidity is quite ridiculous up here at the moment it did a full swing back up to 79% today... best I can currently do is give them lots of new air so the dampness does not sit and keep the fan on at night
Hoping to control it better when I eventually get a tent setup
@Shooey, Agreed the colours are wicked!
I know its quite superficial to be drawn to the purple but its hard not to look at the plant and be proud of it
@Shooey, Thanx buddy
She really was very pretty and I GOT ONE SEED
Hoping and praying it is a fem
Thank you she tastes amazing, I would send you some if i could
