Flowering-5th week
I'm only on my second grow. Totally organic. First was Blueberry. Yummy. This one is Skunk. Very micro-grow. 2 plants. One was male. Nice and healthy one too, damn-it. Killing it sucked. I kind of like vegging better, I think. It's fun watching healthy plants bulk up. Seeing buds fatten is fun but watching those big fan leaves yellow and die sort of sucks. But it's all a learning process. I learned from this one that I need to get some bone meal to mix in my ocean forest, perlite, and dolomite mix when I first start. Maybe next grow the fan leaves will hang on longer. But maybe hanging longer would only mean more trimming, and nothing really better except the looks. What do you think experts? Next grow is White Widow too. I'm excited. I already have the seeds. I just want to say thanks for the help I've gleaned from all you like minded folks. Happy growing! It's a great hobby.

I agree, it is fun watching the plants grow up big and healthy during vegetative growth, and I also agree that it's a pain in the ass when your best & most vigorous grower ends up a male...
And I'm certainly no expert, but I've grown my fair share and feel confident enough to give some advice to organic enthusiasts. I use bone meal constantly, as well. I've found that a small amount used in germination soil seems to help stimulate the roots and sends the plant into vigorous growth sooner. Plus, it's hard to overfeed with bone meal, so there's very little chance of burning your plants. Using a high quality bat guano during flowering might also help to keep your fan leaves from dying prematurely.
As for WW, it's one of my favorite strains...along with about 90% of every other grower in the world! I know you'll have fun with that one.

And lastly, I'm sure you know that even one female skunk in full-bloom is going to be very aromatic. So, if you haven't already, be sure to have a system in place for odor control, or be prepared to smell skunk every time you even think about your home!
Good luck.
