WOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW:jawdropper: your budz look amazing dude, what r u feeding trhose beasts?..... seriously what the fuk do u feed them?? and r u doing any foiliar feeding?
lol, thanks everybody.
Feeding nutrients:
- Fox Farms - Grow Big, Tiger Bloom, & Big Bloom
- Liquid Karma
- occasional A.N. Growth Excel
- tablespoon of blackstrap molasses for final feeding
I did foliar feed in veg. Not in flower. (Using Advanced Nutrients Growth Excel w/ Wet Betty)
Norkali, when u say u used a tablespoon of blackstrap molasses for final feeding what do u mean by final feeding??
I should have clarified that, by "final feeding" I mean the final time that I give it anything other than water.
I will be 'flushing' with ph'd tap water until harvest.
So u mean that u will only be feedinf w/ molasses once, at the end of the whole grow??
Unfortunately yes, I would have wanted to feed with it probably two or three times, but I could not find any unsulphered, blackstrap molasses for over two weeks....I was a bit busy to be hunting down molasses during the holidays.
But! I did get some good ol' Plantation brand unsulphered blackstrap molasses in at the last second.
:jointsmile: Just water from here on out.
So would u have fed w/ the molasses for the whole bloom period or just like the last month?? cause i heard that it is 100% safe to use for the whole bloom??
For my first time using the stuff, I kind of like using it once and seeing the results. Next time around, I'll be able to see what happens w/ molasses at earlier introduction and longer duration.
I would have used it for about the last 3-4 weeks though, yes.
I don't see any reason why you could not use molasses from the beginning of bloom though, just as long as it is used carefully. (Possible nute lock-out from too much iron? Attract bugs? Sticky soil?) That's the problem, I just don't know. I don't have experience using the stuff. We'll see though, right? :bonghit:
The stuff seems wonderful so far though. My buds smell great. Everything seems happy.
Yea i was thinking of throwing some into the mix pretty soon.. where did u find urs at?? im guessing meijer doesnt carry it..
Grocery store. I tried 4, no luck, found it at the 5th. Try smaller sized chains, that's what happened in my case; none of the 3 'major' supermarket chains carried it.
cool im gonna have to go on a search tomorow
LOL, gotta be you aren't used to shopping in the "cooking and baking" section of your grocery. I swear, they all carry "unsulphered molasses". It's a main cooking ingredient. Glad you found it. I first used molasses at 1/2 tablespoon to the gallon and had no troubles. This grow I upped to 2 tablespoons to the gallon. No sticky dirt, no bugs, no nute problems. I used the molasses only in flower and once every three waterings.
That is one nice, big crop you have coming there, Norki How long now, three more weeks? WOW!
Shov
Thanks Shov, I think I have actually changed my mind now. I will be adding another round of molasses into the mix.
Today is day 40 of flowering. I'm guessing that 2 of the ladies will be ready right around day 50, and the 2 other ladies will be ready maybe 2-3 days after that. Weird huh? The 2 ladies that are maturing a little faster are the ones 'in front' of the closet, (the 4 pots are staggered 2 front, 2 back) the 2 'in back' are a tad slower, I honestly think it was due to the difficulty to water correctly in such a tight space; or maybe lack of ventilation? :wtf: Anyway, a little under 2 weeks left. :thumbsup:
Shov, my mom was excited to see you were from Vermont, lol!
She says we have much family in the Barrie area. She has fond memories of going to Joe's Pond and traveling the back dirt roads...
Nice pics. Norkali...:thumbsup: but could you please take a few pics. whit that HPS turned off, just whit flash or normal light ,it would be real good to see the colors of the plants....thanks...:jointsmile:
This was my first view of the buds under "normal" light too....
Wow.
Yea those look really good under the normal light....
So ur Mom knows that u grow weed and all ???? How old r u Norkali if u dont mind my askin..
The mods know my age, but I really don't feel totally comfortable revealing it to all. I'm not exactly 'old' though. Let's put it that way. I've come a long way in a short time I guess.
My parents are old hippies. :hippy: lol. They dig the fact that I am legal and have a card. I showed mom the log(s) today when I was over at her house, she hasn't had a chance to see the closet in person yet. She was speechless. lmao.
Oh totally understandable.. i almost didnt ask, i thought it may have been asking to much. The only reason i asked tho was b/c my parent would kill me, shit they dont even like me smoking the stuff, even tho they were once hippies too.... i think being stuck in an office building and forced to wear suits their whole life has made them a little bitter u kno lol
I dont know where u started from, but i will agree u have mad skill and u have produced some absolutely stunning plant my friend. I would love to take a lesson or two from u, I think u have a very green thumb.. I was going to put the greenthumb smiley, but i think they took it off.
I wish the Admin ould put that one back up, that was my favorite of the smileys... oh well
Keep up the good work my brother/sister in cannabis.
Norki,
Vermont is cool. The state senate is talking about reducing the punishment for holding pot or decriminalization. I hope they do something major, not just a first offense small quantity civil offense and everything else as bad as it is now (felonies).
We had a 61 yo lady judge busted for 25 plants outdoors and she was given "court diversion", a civil offense (misdemeanor) with no record. I'd like to see that for anybody.
Shov
:greenthumb:
How tall are the plants now? Does topping them make them grow shorter or just increase the budding sites?
Great lookin grow man! Hopefully i'll be able to get back into it soon!
Peace!
WOW
Ahhh. :oQuote:

My grandmother (dad's side) could never get it right, bless her, she never had the heart to kill a plant and remove the males from her crops. She continually grew 'schwag' right up until she passed away, stubborn old Cherokee! She was absolutely thrilled to get her recommendation, and got to enjoy it for about a year before she passed. When the family went to clean out her house, we found some plants outback, and I even found a small bag of hash under her recliner! Yeah Nana! :hippy:
Dad brought it a bit further. He started out in his closet too; had his dad find them, got em' pulled, and moved on. A couple years down the road, he eventually ended up with a 'Best-in-Show' award form an underground and renowned (and recently written upon in High Times a few months back...) grow society. No shit. He grew that crop out of a small greenhouse in the backyard. Mom and dad waited until I was asleep, then went out and continued to trim a quarter-pound+ of bud in an RV they had parked in the side yard. When I was 7 or 8 I didn't know what that funny skunk-smell was coming out from under the house, HAH! Now I know. Unfortunately, dad never got to enjoy the benefits of Prop 215 in CA. He quit growing before the 'medical marijuana' movement really even started, out of sheer paranoia and concern for his own family.
Shit, I didn't start smoking until I was 14, and when the parents found out, I was busted too. Just like all of us. Dad didn't approve of me growing in the beginning either; probably due to old-school-paranoia. With a legitimate, legal medicinal recommendation though, and after a bit of explaining and time for it to settle, he eventually gave me the nod. Unfortunately, neither of my parents can smoke, let alone grow, due to their careers. Dad has had a chance to see my closet, and while he tries not to show it, but I can tell he's proud. :jointsmile:

so gorgeous.....
YUMMY!!! just looking at those 2 pics makes me want to hit a bowl. :rastasmoke:
Wow that's a lot of Bud, and more to grow wow.
i wonder how DANK that smells kali
I am a lurker, and have yet to post one of my grows. I am very happy to see this C99 grow as I have 2 clones currently waiting their turn for flowering space. After watching yours get so damned perdy, I might just have to veg them for a bit longer and get many more clones off them! Keep up the great work!
Plan on growing Cindy again?
lookin real nice:smokin:
Thanks Gamma, Mac, SS, BigFattie, & 420.
yiGity, it smells like candy - crazy, sweet, dank candy.
Welcome Magneto! I would definitely recommend that! I have some more beans and will be hopefully establishing a mother, so yes. This lady is amazing.
Finally got some good quality bud shots. Ugh, I hate hairs that get stuck on buds....another magnifying glass & tweezer session tomorrow....
I can't believe how fast things are moving in there, a week left feels so close, but so far at the same time.....
they look very uniform and solid. looks great. C99 is one of my all time favorites to grow. It can be so fruity and tropical, sweet as sugar.Quote:
