heres some pics of my superskunk 27 days into flowering,when should i expect the buds to start filling out as im pretty sure they have stopped stretching?the tallest is 3ft 3" and the tallest when put from veg to flower was 21"
also im planning on getting epsoms salts as the leaves are loosing colour-can any1 tell me how much epsom salts i should add to 1 litre of water?
oh hell man you neded some help those are the oddest looking buds ive ever seen those are far to long and skinny to be superskunk and being indica prevalent which also explains why your leaves are loosing color because you plants are in an enviroment in wich thay cannot properly photosynthesize. at this point you may be screwed. i hate to be the bearer of bad news guy. but dont fret too much you can still pull something out of this. try to get ahold of some canna brand nutrients and a better light as far as epsom salts go id die before i let any of the shit touch my plants go with an organic fertilizer hope this is of some help to ya
peace my fellow indo grow pot smokin guy
i can assure you they are superskunk i got from sensiseeds when i was in amsterdam
if you have a look at this site it says that they are 70%sativa and 30% indica! http://www.1stmarijuanagrowerspage.c...ml#super-skunk
i think the tall skinny bit is known as a cola!
p.s. i use bio-bizz 100% organic ferts (bio-grow,bio-bloom and top-max)
well you shouold be in much better shape if your using bio bizz but there is somehting fucked up about it the plant in the midle is rather healthy looking with exeption of color but the two on the sides are lacking somehting. the plant in the midle is apparently right under the light and doing much better than the other two so perhaps you chould change the position that your light is in to help the smaller ones keep a close eye on your ph levels that can have somehting to do with it oh and i apologize for the strain thing when i hear skunk i think of the old school indica skunks so automatically percieved it as indica dominant and aside from the length of the top colas and width of fan leaves that looks like and indica to me maybe im crazy oh yes and dont be a smart ass ive grown for years i know what a cola is and those are just not quite up to par with anything ive seen amazing length though
next time you should try something a little more indica dominant. satives really fuck up indoors sometimes that is unless you run an artificial sun they do well then
peace
smart ass ooh i didnt know you had grown for years ill get you a blue peter badge lol :D
peace
this is my first time growing so to have smokeable buds will be superb.
ive got a white widow growing thats been about 30 days from seed and i just topped it a few days ago,which i know i should have done with the superskunks although it being my first time grow i bottled it and didnt want to try it cause i thought theyd fuck up,im gonna have a look for some indica dominant strains for my next grow although im planning on cloning my white widow and hopefully it turns out female and i might just stick with the white widow strain,if u could suggest to me any indica dominant strains for indoors it would be appreciated,cheers
ive been looking at a strain thats decendant of ak-47 right now called endless sky which is indica dominant its a bit more potent and has more likelyhood of having phenotypes so its not really stable but the good thing is it turns random colors sometimes and has astounding yeild i get giddy just thinking of having a couple pounds of that shit in the closet check it out at drgreenthumb.com i just have issues with the company im not sure they safely ship to the us
peace
Hi wardrobe
I grew that same strain a while back, hydroponically, and had the same fan leaf color change. I added a little liquid karma [for trace elements] it helped a little. The flowering time was 50 days on the seeds i got, so you have a while for them to fatten up. The last 3 weeks they really got fat. I clipped off the dying fan leafs on mine, new ones replaced them. Has anything stressed them? power outage? cold or over heated?
excellent grow for a first timer, better than alot of us I bet.
peace

ps. i use 1/2 teaspoon of ebson salts per gallon of water , you'll have to do the conversion lol.
heart,ive been removing the dyin fan leaves on mine aswell,i dont reckon they can be of much use to the plant.
i cant think of anything that couldve caused stress as i aint had a power shortage and there kept between 70f-80f. RH is between 42%-60%.my pH meter reads just above 7 but dont know how accurate it is as its a cheap 1.should i lower the pH?
the plants are in 1 galon tomato pots which i think is too small as theres alot of surface roots now showin which i cover with more soil now and again.
1 thing i think might have stressed them was about 1 week into flowering i flushed each of the plants with 15-18 litres of plain water as i thought the yellowing might have been caused with overfert?
i think ill look for something with trace elements,could you suggest anything i could buy in the U.K. i could use for soil?
Hey wardrobe
My ph is around 6.2 but that's for hydro, I believe dirt is the same. The small containers might be making them root bound. probably best to wait till the next grow on that might stress them too much. here's a site i find very helpful:
http://sharprubberduck.com
Ph of 7 will slow down the intake on some nutrients so you might want to lower that. Try slowly at first [6.6] wait a week, see how they respond, lower them a little more till you get them to 6.2 or so.
As far as UK based nutrients, sorry I can't help you out there, possibly a hydro shop there will have some.
You have a good handle on things, far better than I did on my first grow , my hats off to you.
hope this helps
peace

thanks for the info on the p.h. heart.s.s,im gonna have to get myself down the grow shop again soon, i just aint had the chance with the crazy hours im workin lately.its been that bad i aint been home while my lights are on in a few days,although got back in time today to find some f****n male pre-flowers appearing on 1 of em which i removed wot i could see with tweezers(only had 45 mins of light to play with cause of work) :mad:
i noticed a few calyx`s on the same plant very swollen looking although the ones on the other plants were normal (1 of the pre-flowers was partially open and when i removed it-yeah you guessed it POLLEN)so i think i might have pollented it or atleast o few of the calyx`s,hopefully it wont spoil the other 2! whats the chances? im fearing the worst.
heres a few pics of a white widow ive been growing from a seed i was given by the folk at the grow shop for free!
this little babys been under 2x14 watt flouros!!!! for 33 days and i topped it a few days back, (getting brave with a stanley blade as ive noticed the cannabis plant is a tuff little cookie)The WW is lookin better than any of my superskunks looked under a 250 watt MH at the same stage in growth although it aint as bushy and dense respectively with the light factor in mind.i
hope this is gonna be a lil bitch as im gonny have a try at cloning it within the next week or when i get time!
p.s. ;) cheers for the link to that site,lots of good info and loads of links to sites i aint came across before
heres pics from yesterday 30 days flower - first post they were 24 days!i got mixed up :confused:
heres a pic of a few clones i took from my white widow yesterday,i hope they survive as its my first try at cloning
are the leaves on skunk that yellow because of light or just that yellow? cuz that looks god damn yellow lol
dude i've been looking at a strain called mazar from dutch passion very closet growable i was gona go with mazar before i found NL x Big Bud...couldnt resist
Hey wardrobe how do you manage the temperature at 70-80?
Is your grow room open in the front?
something is wrong, either not enough root room or lighting is not uniform, or something, feed them CO2 to try to get them to explode while you have some time left...
P.S. next time top them for a bushier plant with bigger/fuller buds
skateboardingpunk the doors are kept closed mostly as the extractor and osc fans are runnin,although i open now and again to lower humidity.
mikee it probably is the fact of them being root bound as there in 1 gallon pots and theres roots showing on the top of the soil,if i cover with more soil they just appear again,my next grow i reckon ill be using 3 gallon pots!
d3struct i know of some1 whos growing mazar and said its ideal for closet grows aswell,maybe ill talk my way into a few seeds lol. ive also been thinkin about buying the calafornia indica from sensiseeds-any1 got experince of growing this plant?
hello folks just thought id give my old post a bump,been away for a while not been growing after wot happened to me back at new year time,anyhows just a quick hello to every1 again @cannabis.com
