You can't get much better than that. MAN, those are some SWEET lookin' buds. So bulky for so early, as well. Do you use a special bud booster?

Loving the variety, as well. I bet you're in a few weeks, you're gonna be getting :giggity: :giggity: :giggity:

I sure would be. I would be making sick salad out of those - an Ensalada, Mexico. Damn right. ENJOY, man. I'm interested to know the yield when you chop and dry. Would LOVE to see some harvest pics. Keep us posted.

Hi Fog ,thanks for the compliments.

Ill keep the thread updated weekly till Harvest.

I vegged these plants for 6 weeks with a single topping ,while they were young, to create 4 leaders on every plant. Im impressed with how these strains took to topping, especially the Grapefruit.

During veg i had to top the orangebud twice as it grew rapidly straight up. Even with 2 toppings each the Orangebud was 3-4 inches taller than the rest come time to flower, though it had less internodes...very reedy. Im not to impressed with this strain due mainly to them not being uniform with the rest of my crop.

The Grapefruit plant pictured started growing pistils around week 3 of veg, and lots of them. By week 6 veg on 18/24 literally every internode had 4 long pistils, like 1 week of flowering usually looks. It gave itself a head start over the rest and now has the fattest buds. Great strain.

The Jackywhite and Whiteberry have also impressed me, both are uniform and grow 4 leaders with no problems. The Jackywhite looks to be very oily, even some of the fan leaves are almost black, and the Whiteberry is coated in trichs.

I grow in soil and used a combination of BioBizz nutes, Grow/ Fishmix and Root Juice, until 10 days into 12/12. Then i flushed and switched to BioBizz Bloom with TopMax every 2nd feed and Canna Bud Boost in between until day 30 of 12/12. This week im using Bloom and Topmax with added Canna PK13/14. I plan to flush around week 6 and give them 2 weeks of straight water. :)

You have done very well up until the very last part. I don't think the flush between vegetative and flowering was necessary and I definately don't think a two week plain water feed will add to quality, infact you will probaly end up with bud that is of much less quality. Flush for two days in my opinion, then once the medium has dried out, instead of your next due watering, harvest the plant. Buds fatten up the most during the last weeks of flowering, you really don't want to risk depriving them of anything during that time. You wouldn't straight water feed a plant in vegetative especially when using organics because it would use up the nitrogen very quickly in the soil and without more would become stunted, its the same principal in flowering. Chemicals require a different procedure to Organics. From what I can see you are using organics mostly.

I Disagree, i feed them with every watering and with this much nutes a flush is required to rid the soil unwanted residues. Also i refeed them after the flush so there are certainly not deprived. As for the final 2 weeks i let the plants use up all of their stored chems b4 i harvest as this produces a tastier bud. They have more than enough stored nutes to see them through the last 2 weeks. Weed that has been fed up to the last 3 days ,in my opinion, tastes like chemical weed.

A flush is required because you overfed them. If you feed for example, five plants, exactly the same amount of nutrients per watering the smaller plants will not be using alot of that but the big one's will. If you had done your homework you would not need to take such drastic action but its totally your decision man. I ask you whether you have ever grown a crop without this method (2week flush) because you only can say its tastier if you can compare the difference between the two, get me? Alot of people say they get better results based on what methods other people use but have never actually tried themselves. Why don't you do a little experiment?

Chemical weed? Maybe..., again, this depends totally on the products used. If you use pure organics you do not need to flush for two weeks.

Ive grown , as you say without flushing and i can tell you now that when flushed for 2 weeks it Definatly tastes better. The non flush plants left a metallic aftertaste and the flushed plants were smoother with more of the plants flavour coming through.
Ive been growing weed for years and been around many other grows and i can tell you from experiance that soil grown , flushed plants are the most superior tasting buds you can find on the planet.
I also know that 2 week flushed plants are slightly less weight than chem weed but the weight means nothing to me.. im not a dealer. Id rather smoke tasty weed .... and who told you that organic fertilised weed dosn't need a flush? Their pulling your leg m8.
Tell me plz, what physical homework have you done or are you just making this up from gathered info without actually testing your theory yourself?
You stick to non flush chem weed just dont try to pretend that its better and dont riddle this thread with more misleading information.

Plz read the flushing guide for Newbs in the link above.:thumbsup:

I'm talking about organics, I said two days is sufficient not two weeks, I didn't say it was not necessary, READ. I have never used chemical fertiliser because they have byproducts that are harmful to the environment.

As for the flushing for newbies article, nah I'm alright thanks, you can shove it up your ass though, best place for it.

2 days is certainly Not sufficient with any fertiliser...do you honestly think nitrogen from chemical fert is a different chemical to the nitrogen in organic fertiliser? Its just manufactured a different way, its the same chemicals in your plant from either fertiliser! Also the plants do not need or want feed in the last 2 weeks, infact feeding them in the last stage of flowering ruins your bud, if u READ the article i linked you instead of taking a sissy fit on a public forum then you would realise this.
And comments like you made concerning my ass* just shows you up as being an ignorant little child... Enjoy your "organic" chemical weed. I wouldn't poke it with a 10foot cannabis brance :weedpoke:

I was really enjoying the discussion/debate between you two - until it got nasty.

Mega - maybe you should chill a little and not be so defensive. You are both making good points, and those of us reading may be learning from your discussion.

There doesn't have to be winner or a loser in this discussion. Just two people who do things differently. Obviously, neither of you is going to change the other's mind. But your discussion was informative before it turned to bullshit.

Hi tom thanks for compliment. Im not sure on the origins of these breeds but i'd guess your right,blueberry and widow. There from Paradise seeds, some of their new breeds, as is the Jackywhite. I also have some of their Icecream, currently @ 3 weeks veg, in my next lot. :D

:thumbsup: kick ass plants man!! they look real happy and healthy i have to agree I followed the debate about flushing intently and was impressed with both partys knowledge but the sh*@ talkin was uncalled for. I love the look of that whiteberry I can def see traits of widow in there, kinda curious where to get my hands on some seeds for whiteberry myself now lol.

My rule on flushing has always been 2 weeks prior to harvest to improve the flavor and let the plant use all the built up nutrients from the fan leaves. I am about 7 days from harvest on my grow and they are showing good yellowing from the bottom up using up all the saved up food. Look forward to seein some more pix and keep up the good work!!

Day 50.

The Whiteberry and Grapefruit are showing amber trichs so should be ready some time this week. The Jackywhite looks like it has another 7-10 days left.

The orangebud finished early [day48] and the bubblehash was made from some of the leaf. Potent stuff. :smokin:

Hi , i grow from seed so it depends on the plant. The better of the 2 Grapefruit plants i had was 1.5 foot tall and i took about 2.5 oz. dry bud off it. The other was 2 foot and had about 1 oz.:thumbsup:

Favourite strain ... i'm not sure, theres lots of choice. I like White Widow, i also like the way the Grapefruit and JackyWhite turned out.:stoned:

topping whiteberry is a bad idea this plant is a single cola dominante, topping will reduce yeild. although bending the growing tip will allow more light penetration and airflow ie
