Indoor BR549's Poisoned Fantasmo Trainwreck Decay Extravaganza!

[BR549]

Thanks! Unfortunately, it looks like the trauma to the Fantasmo Express was too much. Oh, she's still healthy, but the stretch is over. Done. Finished. I may have grown the worlds smallest Fantasmo Express. Maybe there's a future for me in Bonsai Cannabis? Anyway, I'm switching her to flowering nutes tonight:

1.5 tsp Big Bloom
1.0 tsp Grow Big
1.0 tsp Tiger Bloom
0.5 tsp Boomerang
0.5 tsp Microbe Brew
.25 tsp Kelp Me, Kelp You
.25 tsp Open Sesame
0.5 tsp Armor Si
5 mg Cal/Mag

The other three ladies are continuing with their Vegging Delight meals.

From the looks of her, I should still get a decent amount from her. It's not the first mistake that's cost me weed. If it's the last, I'll...nah. No chance of that!

Your sweet Trainwreck is looking a lot better than mine. Mine is very small live and learn

Yeah, but if you compare your first grow to my first grow, you're kicking my butt!

DAY 40: I was poking around in the tent tonight and decided to grab the camera. First, a group shot of the girls, then a close up of the Sweet Trainwreck, just because I love them at this stage. If I didn't smoke the stuff, I think this would be the most beautiful part of the grow. But I do, so I prefer it later...

I think your Fantasmo will do fine ... I'm not a big believer in letting them get too tall ... she'll bulk up ... when the plant gets too old the stems can be too stiff to super crop so I'm usually done by 4 weeks ... I settle for bruising the stem at that point w/o bending it ... seems to work like super cropping only not as effective ... Nice looking grow ...

It's strange. My approach this time was to have plants that matured at different times, reached different heights, etc., just to see what it was like to cope with that. Now, I've converted the "odd one out" into a plant just like the others! Anyway, they're all slowing down. I could probably get a bit more height out of the Red Poison and Toof Decay, but I'm going to go ahead and flush them now. All will be on the flowering nutes next watering. I completely forgot about flushing the Fantasmo, so it'll be done my old way. The last watering was without food, at least. So, just for my own reference later: DAY 41: Plants flushed.

Edited to add: I decided to go ahead and use the FULL Fox Farms line, including Flowers Kiss (a misting feed for the foliage), which is a pain in the ass as my lights run 24/7. So, I have to spray the plant, then wait for it to dry, and then put it back in the tent. Listen to me, complaining about spending more time with my plants when it's all I want to do anyway...

DAY 43: The other three ladies are joining Fantasmo at the big girl table; all are on flowering nutes (same formula listed for the Fantasmo Express) as of tonight. I'm not sure why. As you can see from the close ups, they're flowering fine without any input from me. I feel so useless...sniff.

Fantasmo Express:

Well, the jokes on me. My camera battery just died. Call this a bonus shot, and I'll post another full update on Monday night. Sorry!

What the heck; I'm off tomorrow-I'll get the other three up now. The girls are definitely teenagers now. Someone needs the "B.O." talk-phew!

Sweet Trainwreck:

Red Poison:
Although I'm seeing no red, except on the stems.

Toof Decay:

I joked about Toof Decay being the big plant of the grow last time I grew her. Well, thanks to my breaking the top off of the Fantasmo Express, and my total lack of ability to ponytail any more, it is once again Queen B.

And seriously, someone reeks! I never understood what those suits in the anti-drug movies meant by "sickly-sweet", but it describes someone in this tent perfectly. Thank you, carbon scrubber!

Hope you don't mind me sitting back and watching this rest of this grow and getting me some learning along the way. Nice set up, similar to mine so though this would be a good grow to watch. What variac speed control are you using ? its my next up grade. Will need one for my intake fan as she is a cheap 4" black orchid and is pretty noisy on mt sms fan controller.

Welcome! I picked mine up on Amazon; just search for PHC Enterprises. Looks like it's about $65 now; seems like it was a little less when I bought it. At the time I was thinking I was spending too much, but I'm glad I got it. I won't say it's as solid as the ones I remember from the seventies, but it's pretty solid, and has worked flawlessly.
