New Grower Duckster's First Adventure

[Duckster]

ooopppsss

Well I decided to increase the tension a bit on the rack. I went down a notch but that did not seem enough, so I went one more and crack. Oh feck - I broke the main stem about 14" from the top. The skin did not break but I put a big crease in the stem. Put the tension back to where I had it yesterday. Straighten the stem out and wrapped it up with sticky tape. She be alright - suck it up bitch!

Damn mate those girls are getting huge, reckon she should be alright looking at your neat repair job, you dont know might even be a blessing in disguise the shock might slow her down enough so she dont grow anymore before she goes into full flower.

Looking at all those bud sites you should have a nice meaty harvest heading your way.

:Sharing One:

Hey Spanglish Yeh I'm hoping they'll start putting all their energy into filling out those bud sites. Looks like the girls are rounding the clubhouse turn and heading for the home stretch. Guess the next big sweats are when to chop, the trim, the dry, and the cure. Still lots of new tricks to learn. lol Then there is the planning for the next round. Have not decided how many or what strains yet. But one thing is for sure, I'm gonna use 3gal pots instead of the 5gal that I used this time.

Looks like things are going well in your box. Even CW is looking good (she's my fav.) Got to cheer for the underdog.

Smell em on the other side of the Atlantic! lol. Don't think there's enough carbon to filter something that strong. I'd be freaking if you could smell them outside of the room that they're in. lol

Day 70/53

These plants continue to amaze me. Both appear to be a bit self-destructive. They love to shove their leaves into the fans for a shredding or up against the side lights for a bit of a burn. Sonya's stem seems fine - stronger than ever. I broke that fecker again a couple of days ago about 8" above the first break. Patched it up same same and bob's yer uncle. Despite that Sonya is still unruly as ever. I have had to tie down 8-10 side branches to keep them out of the light.

Buds are swelling and firming up a little, especially on Talula. Not much frosting yet though. Picking dead or fallen leaves out under growth at the base of the plant. I have been drying and saving them. I assume they are ok for butter or something. Correct me if I am wrong.

The girls are thirsty. I'm feeding each girl with 750ml 2 Xa day1 ml/l GH CaliMagic
2 ml/l AN pH perfect Grow
2 ml/l AN pH perfect Bloom
2 ml/l AN pH perfect Micro
1ml/l AN SeniZym
1ml/l AN RhinoSkin
1 ml/l AN B-52
2 ml/l AN Carboload
1 ml/l AN Overdrive
2 ml/l AN Bud Factor X

All seems good in the cab. Soil pH running 6.3-6.7. rh 45-65%. temps 78-84
Some pics to follow.
