nice grow, nice plants Darwin :boob:! when are you planning to start that creme mandarine :smoke:.
Hey guys, I said I would be back with some pics, and here they are
My creme mandarine is 25 days old today. She was supposed to be in a coco/peat/pearlite mix, but I get my soil per mixed from a friend and I saw some miracle grow nute balls in it when I was potting. I didn't have access to any other and it didn't seem like much, so I used it. Well, I now for sure can say I hate it.
A few weeks ago when she was getting her first nute feed, I forgot to adjust the pH higher because she isn't just in coco, so I had to flush her with pH water and then re-fed. Of course without thinking, I basically flushed all of the chemical nute balls right into the soil and she got a little burned. Another friend of mine is running one in coco and its the same age and it is definitely more full and larger, but luckily not a ton. Anyway, long story kind of short, I flushed her the next feed with 8 gallons of plain distiller water to rinse out the rest of the miracle grow and she seems fine now. The LST seems to be working nicely.
MI5 is also doing extremely well! She seems to be developing a slight phosphorus deficiency, but she's due for a feed tomorrow, so ill give her a good flush and make sure the pH of her feed is at 5.6 for the best absorption in the coco (no miracle grow in her pot)
The yellowing is actually the leaves purple ing up. I got a new box fan which moves way more air and I have a window open in the room (it gets very warm with them closed and all of the lights on) but at night the temp is dropping to like 60 or 65 from 80. I think that has something to do with the phos. Problem also.
She is looking amazing though.So sugary and her branches are all nice tight colas. Once she starts to fatten up I think she's gonna be a monster. The LST worked wonders with her and pretty much all of the "popcorn" shot right into the canopy so there are very few popcorn flowers below the canopy line. I'm very happy with how she's doing.
And hopefully a little auto pounder will pop out of the soil and we can all experience her journey! I'm very excited because I purchased an air pot and I can't wait to try it...even though I ordered the 3 gal and got the 5 gal. That's why I went with a (supposedly) larger strain so she will really benefit from the 5gal pot.
Wish her luck!

I'm not so sure about phos dep, that MI5 girl looks a tad N hungry though. Good looking girls all the same!
Hey guys! Just wanted to give an update on the garden. Mi5 is coming along very quickly! I was looking through the loupe and she's going amber! I gave her her last feed today and shell be on water from here on out. I'll probably chop in 14 days from the next watering, unless anyone thinks otherwise. I know many of you have grown this strain so any advice for a good chop time would be great!
Creme mandarine is also doing awesome. She is just finishing her stretch and looks great. The LST did pretty well. She has some claw going on, but that's from the unfortunate miracle grow mixed into the coco. She doesn't seem too worse for wear though.
And lastly auto pounder is coming along. I keep burying her up to her leaves. She hasn't quite decided to put out the first true leaves yet. Coming along nicely in her air pot though. I have noticed that its drying very quickly. It makes sense, but I'll have to keep an eye on it for sure.
Anyway, I'm hoping the pictures upload in high quality (I'm pretty sure they didn't
), but hopefully you'll get the idea. If anyone knows how to upload high quality photos from an iPad let me know.
They are mi5 whole plant and close ups, creme mandarine, and then auto pounder. The photos are just taken on my iPhone with my 30X loupe in front of the camera...
Anyway, I hope everything with you guys is going well! We haven't had anything close to a winter up here in the Pacific Northwest unlike most of the country. It's been pretty warm and not too wet. (That's what she said)
I'm really looking forward to the summer however. I'm getting the mid-winter blues for sure.
Take care everyone!
