1st timer, w/Hydroton, could use a little help...
What's up guys. Been a little busy at work and blah blah blah.
First, thank you all, again, for the invaluable advice that you've given me so far. I don;t know what these plants would look like without it.

So, as for the plants. Today is day 50 of flowering. I chopped one of them about a week ago. She turned out to be a raging hermaphrodite. So I'm down to three. The 1 big mango and 2 purp.
I'm still using Technaflora nutes, the "new" recipe. I've also started using FoxFarm's Beastie Bloomz (for 1 week) then switched to ChaChing last week.
Here's the mango. The first pic is the top of the plant. The second pic is the top bud of the lowest branch. I've been reading what I could find about this mango strain, says somewhere that its a 10-12 week floweing plant. If that's true, I have a long way to go. But I guess I understand why that could be. It took about 2 weeks to show real signs of flowers, then it stretched about 10 inches over the weeks 3-4 and most of 5. Now its just filling out. Trichs are almost all clear still, cloudy in some spots, maybe 5%.

Here are the other two. They're still about 1/4 the size of the mango, but I'm assuming that they'll finish much sooner. The one on the right has some scars of natural selection. Since I'm concentrating on the mango, and blasting them with 1500-1600ppm, I decided I'm not going to adjust the levels to accomodate the smaller plants, I burned them for sure. Trich's on these are almost all cloudy, I saw 1 or 2 amber in my field of vision with the 30X handheld microscope, so less than 1%.

The clones are doing well too. I'm going to experiment a little with the mango clones. Since I already know what this plant likes to do if left untrained, I want to know what else it likes too. A couple weeks ago I fimmed 1 of them, yesterday I started LST on one, and I havent decided what to do with the 3rd one yet. Any suggestions?
Hope all is well in everyone's garden. Leave me some input, thanks again.
