Hey all, here are a couple of pics from about 9-10 weeks since germination. Height is approximately 0.8 meters in the pics (little less than a meter), and at the beginning of flowering about 1.1 meters. Obviously strong sativa genetics, Kali Mist to be specific. One is a top down, the other a side view. Let me know what you all think! :)

Thanks for the comments :). Just about a week since flowering started, girls only at this point. Here are a few pics from when they were babies...

I should note that just before the first image was captured, they were transplanted from an indoor hydro setup (used for germination and seedling veg) to the outdoor soil. These show the progress from the day of transplanting to about 10 days later (they handled their move well - this system seems to work quite nicely).

Here are some pics of Kali and her pre-flowers / flowers...

NOTE: This is just before she was trimmed down :thumbsup:. Though it would be cool to have a pic of the leafy lady.

don't trim your plants fan leaves! Seriously it will severely decrease your yield by decreasing the amount of leaves in the photosynthesis process. I have only trimmed a fan leaf if it was necessary. Obviously if I was topping and or FIM'ing everything above what I cut goes, but in the future, leave em on there. If I misunderstood you, oops! If not, you should really leave em be.
Also in a couple of your pics she looks a bit yellow. Could be a N def. ( most yellowing is) It sometimes happens when a plant starts to flower and is growing at an even more rapid rate and doesn't have enough Nitrogen to keep up and supply the plant. Most flower nutes are obviously lower in N than when in the veg stage, but sometimes, your plant's yellowing like that means they need a bit more N than they are getting. You could add some bat guano or just raise the amount of nutes you are feeding her a tiny bit and Ph around 6-6.3, it should help.
Other than that, they are looking good!:thumbsup:

Thanks for the comments and kind words :-D. I only trim leaves if they are shading the growing tips / flowers (or have some other probelm). And as a matter of fact, I increased the nutes right before those pics because I had started to notice a little progressive yellowing. But thanks for the catch! If I wasn't paying close attention to the lady she might have gone awhile if you hadn't thought to mention that! I am getting harvest fever... I need to lock myself up for a few months so i don't get trigger happy trying to harvest lol.

D9- good on ya... hope that it fixes your N def issues and the yellowing. Keep us informed!

Thanks el! I'll let everyone know how it works out and have some more pics soon :thumbsup:. Hope everyone is enjoying them - they are eye candy to me for sure, especially knowing who gets to harvest and partake :jointsmile:

Here are some long overdue updated pictures. Hope they brighten someone's day - they are sure eye candy for me :-)

As you can see, the colas are really beginning to show themselves, and the lovely little white hairs are now very prominent (much more so than those barely visible in the last set of pics).

what is the smell when you agitate the plant ( that's all i do during flowering, is tickle my flowering plants to smell them... sometimes i can't get my chores done... i have a problem)

Can't answer that due to the fact I don't know to be quite honest. As far as I know there has never been any "scratch-n-sniff" action going on haha. I suppose if the plant looks like it wants to be agitated, that could be arranged. Perhaps something to try in the future. I'll get back with more info should the situation present itself. Anything particular that should be taken note of, or something that you're looking for?

*Note - Due to the possibility of aggitating an unknown or unobserved pollen source (such as errant pollen granules deposited on a female plant gone without notice before the removal of males), I usually don't advocate unduely disturbing plants unless there is a specific reason. Just my thoughts...

Here is a little experiment I think might be interesting. A small (underdeveloped / immature) flower was cut proximal to the primary growing shoot from an inferior branch (not an apical raceme). This selection was made due to the fact that the racemes closer to the bottom and nearer the main growing shoot usually never develop fully anyway, therefore there was no major concern pertaining to loss of yield.

The idea is to rapidly dehydrate and test the flower for potency. Since it is small, immature, and will not be properly cured, the expected result is that potency will be far less than would be desired. This is ok, however, in that the goal of the experiment is to determine whether there are any noticably active compounds at present time in the immature flowers. If there is a detectable presence of any psychoactive compounds in the immature and prematurely dehydrated flower, the fully mature and properly cared for flowers would be expected to be of much higher grade than the results this experiment will show (a good thing). If there is no detectable level of anything psychoactive in this specimen, then nothing will have been lost; the potential grade and potency of the plant will just remain unknown for awhile longer... Here is a picture of the specimen in question shortly after cropping and prior to dehydration...

Here are a few pictures from last week. Let me know what you all think. I really like the way the cola is starting to "mist" the apical bud leaves and am pleased to see that classic -Kali Mist- shimmer of trich's on top. It is a lovely thing to behold :thumbsup:.
