These are my Chronic ladies, 6 weeks into 9 weeks of flowering.

[attachment=o88992][attachment=o88993][attachment=o88994][attachment=o88995][attachment=o88996]

All is going well i'd say, there is suprisingly little smell from them, I thought maybe because they're clones?

Anyways, the leaves are showing a little bit of curling upwards on the edges of some of the leaves, the edges of the slightly curled edges are a light color. Isn't that mag. def?

The p.h is 6.0

nutes are coco a&b - 20ml per plant per 2 days
and Canna Accelerator (4ml)
Natural bat guana (2ml)

Anyone got any comments? :)

The plants are 3 weeks away from being done, I've increased the dark period to 13/12 anyone got any negative comments on this?

I've heard burning a candle can make a little difference with co2 anyone tried it?

hey khan.. how was the smoke on that ice? ur grow inspired me to getsum ice seeds.. im doin it up now..
the only negitive thing i have heard about increasing the light hours is that it decreases the yeild.. but it makes it finish quicker soo its 6 in one half a dozen in the other..
never heard bout the candle but it seems to have some logic behind it...

KHAN

No I increased the dark by an hour pot :)

The smoke was great. All who tried it call it the sideways stone. When you toot that Ice you start walking sideways! I swear it! Good luck with that.

woops yeah thats what i meant increasing the dark hours* lol ive heard it speeds up the finishing but it lowers the yeild....
glad to hear that about the ice...lol

Hey Khan the plants are looking awesome great job!!! I have a question, what is Pk 13-14? Im assuming its some sort of veg nutes but wondered if you could clarify that for me. Also you said you chngd the light to 13/12 do you mean 11/13? theres only 24 hours in the day lol so 13/12 would be kinda hard. I think you should check out this thread http://boards.cannabis.com/showthread.php?t=82783. I learned so much from this setup and have applied alot of the techniques to my own grow. Keep up the good work and look forward to more pics or your finished product if possible. Also check out my thread at http://boards.cannabis.com/showthread.php?t=83478 and lemme know what you think.

hey man nice job!
ive been growing chronic for several yrs now, and if ya dont mind id like to give you a trade secret!,,,,
in chronic if you do a 13 11 cycle giving the plant more darkness than light it will produce even more! this should be done in there last three weeks or so
so do it now , believe me! if ya dont read up abit on the chronic!
good job bro
damn good job! bet ya looking forward to smoking! hey thats a good thing about chronic it is quite nutural in the room
even when moved, its the drying and curing you have to get right,
if ya dont dry and cure well the chronic can be ruined real easy,
dry untill the branches are snapping, i mean the branches not the buds!, and then cure for at leat a couple of weks, the longer the better!,,,, in the meantime ya can smoke ya mids, they dry quicker!
good luck man

Hey buddy it depends on the size of your babies I suppose :) 10ml of canna seems low (unless they're pretty small) and 5ml of pk actually seems too much :) You should get a small bottle of Canna Accellerator it makes the plant use that PK 13-14 up.

I'm feeding mine at 20ml canna coco and 3ml pk-13 with 1ml Guanna per 250ml of water. I give them 2x250ml of ph'd water twice one day and then 1 water and 1 mixture of food on the other day.

They say you should flush it with 2x the amount of water to get rid of salt buildup every few weeks but I havn't done that yet tbh.

Thanks for the advice on that dude, I have 2 weeks left of flowering and they've been on 13/11 dark/light for a week already so i'll keep it like that. Nice to hear from some Chronic growers!

Thx guys.

sounds good bud
but due to shitty head room in my grow space ive got to keep the top of my buds around 36"
so i switch to 12/12 when they get around 14" tall
that worked well with the top 44 but these chronics are already creepin up on the frazzle zone after 19 days
when do they stop growin up and start fillin out?
do you think i should up the nutes on these short arses or stick with 10ml :confused:
thanks in advance buddy

PS: dont be shy wi the pic's mate :thumbsup:

Notorious the ice did give a good final growth spurt in the last two weeks, during the flush especially.

Yes they do need longer than 8 weeks, probroubly closer to 10 for full maturity.

They're not doing well at all bro :(

I got a fungus invasion and i had to trim 3oz of damaged buds of them, and of course it seems to be spreading so i'm going to have to cut my losses and get the axe to it :s

My own fault for putting them in a closet by a wall that had damp. But to look on the bright-side only 1 day away from 8 weeks flowering, I was intending to keep them growing an extra week.

Still looks like 10-15oz of good bud there.

LIVE AND LEARN FOLKS!
