IC what you mean, I think I got my strains confused...

Day 31 and everyone got a gallon of 5ml cal/mag grow and a half cap of superthrive at 6.6ph. The plants are 27in, 28in, 33in, 34in and 36in. The prom queen is bigger than the washing machine and the buds are developing very well, even on the smaller plants (last pic). Next time I think I will try four plants instead of five, maybe just three.

Day34 and everyone got a gallon of 5ml grow big, 20ml big bloom, 10ml microb brew and 1/8tps of beastie bloomz (instead of open sesme). I hope this starts full bud development and stops/slows vertical growth. Plants are now 30in,32in,40in,41in and 42in. with the smallest showing the slowest growth. Pistols are getting long but no sign of resin yet on the sweet leaves, also removed lowest branchs and their underdeveloped buds. The usual salt problem should show soon if I don't hit the plants with some sledgehammer so like it or not this weekend I will clean for bloom nutes.

Day 37 and vertical growth has stopped in the two shorter plants and slowed in the other three, so everyone got a gallon of 10ml sledgehammer at 6.5ph and a few lower leaves trimmed away. The short plants are 30in and 32in while the other three have equaled out at 44in. Friday I will give all the girls a gallon of cal/mag bloom and a half cap of superthrive and by Monday some bloom nutes. I think the three tall girls were what Dinafem used to make the XXL, thetreeman was more right than I. Because the tent is too crowded the plants are thin and branch strength may become an issue.

Gave the girls a gallon and a half of 5ml cal/mag bloom and a half cap of superthrive, humidity is getting above 55%rh in the tent so I have a dehumidifier in the grow room for now. I haven't had to deal with large plants for a while and I wasn't ready for these wonderful girls. If everything goes right I should have about five weeks to fatten buds before harvest. I think next time I will give more nutes during veg, for bloom this time I will stick with my schedule.

Day41 and everyone got about 5qts of 5ml tiger bloom, 20ml big bloom, 10ml kangaroots and 1/8tsp of beastie bloomz at 6.4ph. The resin is pouring out of the plants and even though they look a bit spindelly I really like this plant. I have removed some of the lower branches and the small underdeveloped buds and will open the center if humidity becomes an issue, now at 50-53%rh.

Day 44 and everyone got 5ml cal/mag bloom and a half cap of superthrive, the smaller plants (first pic) got 5qts and the big girls got 1.5gal at 6.4ph. The smaller plants still have the better developed buds and resin cover (second pic) but the big girls seem to be catching up. I going to have to raise the ceiling or lower my work station (last pic).

Great looking ladies VG
I love the height and structure you got on all of them.

Day 47 and everyone got 5ml tiger bloom, 10ml microb brew, 10ml kangaroots and 1/8tsp beastie bloomz at 6.6ph with the smaller plants getting a little over a gallon each and the others about a gallon and a half. The smaller plants have a rich green color and better developed buds, the big girls are showing a spot or two of cal def and lighter color (last pic). I will hit them with another round of sledgehammer this weekend and replace the beastie bloomz with cha-ching next time they get nutes. Maybe because I have been giving the larger plants more nutes they are salting up faster and I have some lock out or maybe I was stoned and forgot something. Bottom line by 10 weeks I start to clean for harvest. There is a hint of orange in some of the pistols and a few of the trics have turned milky.
