2 Egyption skunk under 600w HPS

[biostrength]

Nothing actually haha they have just stayed at those levels throughout the grow? my tap water is a bit wierd as i live in an extremely old house so the waters a bit.... organic. sometimes a bit orange from rust but i always let it run until it clears up, so just tap water and mollasses? i test them usually once every few days and haven't had any problems yet.

Also added another 400w HPS on the side with a big white satellite style reflector :jointsmile:

Peace :hippy:

desperate times ....

desperate buds....

cut tooo earlyy bradda

but let the rest go
tha sativa will take way longer to flower for the top pot

"im expecting harvest in 4 - 6 weeks " ??

dont think so if they just started flowering, more like 8-10,or 4-6 weeks depending on "personal choice"


you are confusing me between flood-n-drain, or soil
first post say soil and the last post says f-n-d...

clear that up !and for the nutes if it is indeed soil there should be enuf built up thru tha grow that just water and mollas. should be fine and productive yet i say a nice feast for the plant is appropiate!! that is just before the last 4-3 weeks:jointsmile:


and if its f-n-d i have no f-n idea!? lolol

i play with dirt!:woohoo:

but for what she is! good job and good luck:thumbsup:

Sorry man i am a noob :stoned: lol i have no f-n idea what im talkin about

There in soil,

Under 1 600w HPS and 1 400w HPS

They have been flowering for 4 weeks

didnt know flood and drain was its own thing? haha sorry guys its cause i was flooding them with water and its been draining out...

i've been told by a uni lecturer in botany friend that they look ready in about 2 -3 weeks thats why i said that but im not sure?

about 15% of the pistils have gone brown, hope this clears things up?

Sorry again, peace :hippy:

Take a gander in the next 4 weeks,they should still be fattening up. Read up on the clear/milky/amber trics so you decided yourself, a nice harvest time. Almost everyone waits for 10-20% amber. =) no nutes and some sweet black strap molasses will provide a very nice flavour. keep it up. =)

looking pretty beautiful, are you using any kind of pestiscide treatment?

[michaelpeg]

just to let you know, dont decide when to harvest based on pistal colour, you should judge by the trichomes (crystals) under a microscope or strong magnifying glass and at least wait until almost all are cloudy before harvesting.

Ok just checked all trichs with a 10x magnifier :thumbsup:.

Fortunately the one cola i did pick, which was the main of one of the plants (well it had the thickest stem going to it?) the trichs have a SLIGHT milky, amber tinge to it. Which i suppose it better then clear.

All the rest are still totally clear, which is good hopefully means alot more fatting up to come... Very exciting:dance:

Update

There growing very very well! and the test smoke was excellent so im very much anticipating the rest of the yeild. Some leaf 'yellowing' which i have just left alone & only pulled off the ones that are really dead looking, and detach easily. As i think the light benafit is better.

I'm still learning this camera, and it seems to hate my plants indoors..

All in all im very pleased with the grow so far, and any further comments would be greatly appriciated :stoned:!

Peace :hippy: Bio
