Master Kush

[dejayou30]

Thanks killa! That purple you posted pics of in my Purple Kush thread looked awesome, I'd love to be growing genes like that! :thumbsup: This is easily the healthiest plant I've raised yet, so hopefully that will show in the yield. I am looking to get at least 5 oz to last me through the summer, my previous best is about 4.5 (I think), but this is the biggest one I've had go full term. The last Master I flowered around this time last year was bigger, but I killed her at only 5 weeks in by adding too much sucanat which fermented or something and rotted the roots clean off. I've been using Botanicare's Sweet supplement since day 1 of flower this go around and it has really made the buds bulk up something fierce.

Started final flush today. Just using RO water and 200 PPM of Sweet supplement.

The end of this grow could not be more of a nightmare. Not only am I battling insane heat, but now its absolutely pouring outside and my basement is flooding.:wtf:

Good thing I only have like 5 days left. I checked trichs yesterday and they are almost all cloudy, and some are amber. :jointsmile:

Wow, is one of the only words I can think of after checking out those pics. I hope to get nice kush like that someday. I do pretty good with bagseed but looking at that kush makes me want to use up one of my genie wishes...:stoned:

THanks for the kind words, frostedwonder. I got the seeds from Dutch Passion for like $120 for 10 and I have to say it was very worth it. I've been growing some Purple Kush bagseed and while it was very nice smoke, the yield compared to the size of the plant was pretty disappointing, but the Master always gets nice and fat.

7 full weeks today. In the past she's finished between 51-54 days, and the trichs are nearly all cloudy and a lot are amber so she is right on time. I decided I'm gonna cut her down on Friday; give her one more day tomorrow and then 24 hours of darkness before harvest. Plus its forecasted to be in the mid 90's and higher after Friday and I am tired of battling this heat. Enjoy the pics! :thumbsup::jointsmile::hippy:

Oh, also, if you notice in the pics, the tips of some of the calyxes have a purple hue. I think its because I left the AC on in the dark for a few days, and it lowered the temps to like 61 which Jorge says will turn them purple. Kinda cool! :thumbsup:

Wow! That shit does look goooood. Definitely see some purple hues in there. :thumbsup: Hell of a job!! I'm not doing hydro, but my temps definitely gets up to around 88-90. I've been iffy about starting flower as the temps may be to high for it......How bad was it with yours? Think you could have pulled more if you could have kept the temps right? Shit even with your high temps them things look marvelous! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Thanks Italiiano. The temps are usually around 84-86 in my room because I've been running AC, but without they are around 95 or so. Keeping the res temps down has been a struggle also. I have been cycling two 2 liters of frozen water to keep the res chilled. Two of them keeps the water right for 12 hours, then I refreeze them during the dark period. It works pretty well but its a pain. I'd say if you are in the 90's you'd be better off just waiting till the fall. The high heat will stifle the growth a bit and will make the calyxes grow out away from the compact bud as you can sort of see in my pics.

[Italiano715]

Hell yeah, I'm trying to stay AWAY from that. Not sure how dense these blueberry is posed to be, so I want to flower when the temps are right, ya know? I may just have to go out and purchase a portable AC for my room. That will probably help significantly.

is any of the color change in the trichs or is it the green part of the bud itself?
