Update: Ended up culling the auto blues, it was starting to explode with growth and i simply couldn't handle the jungle growing in my tent along with these weird temps & humidity issues.

Day 48 for the heisenhounds, was wondering if they seem to be about the right size? Have been feeding them the black magic A+B at half strength, flowering solution was initially half strength now up to full, and this is the end of the second week using AN's big bud. If I recall correctly they are a 65-70 day strain; however with all my speed bumps and screw ups will they take longer or will I simply have a smaller end product at those 65-70 days?

Another thing I'd like to ask advice on: AN's Overdrive says to use it for the last 2 weeks before the flush. Do these look ready to start the overdrive yet or should I continue to feed big bud as the older growth fan leaves have yet to start fading away, and while they are beginning to bulk up seem to still be giant white puffballs for the most part.

Finally: When the flush arrives, unless I am mistaken since this is coco I am growing in, I am to "flush" with 1/4 strength nutes. Does this sound right or should I be flushing with ph'd plain water?


The Skyrone stompers have started to have stems become a deep red color, and I spotted a calcium deficiency just in time on one of them. It has since ceased attacking the ladies, however I am a bit concerned. Given I messed up using the GBD supersoil mix in coco, are the nutrients in conflict with the ph for coco or should I be using more cal mag? I am already at 1.5 teaspoons per gallon and I really don't want to make things worse just dumping more and more in.


Apologies for the word vomit, and heres some pictures!

I'm never done at those times seems to be day 80-85 everyone for me but I like amber that sounds right time would put you finishing around day 75 with two week flush.
They look fine to me they will fatten and harden with their remaining time looks like your doing good everyone healthy.
I'm going to pull up a chair I'm starting a new run seeds soaking love everyone here you all make the wait time go by faster when awaiting a grow.
 
Long overdue update! I went away for the holidays, and had to stay longer then expected due to health issues in the family. Upon returning the person entrusted with watering the ladies did not do so, and 12 days later when i got back the medium was bone dry, and all but one plant was at the end of their ropes. The last struggled for another week and a half before I took her down.

That being said!! In total after first round of trimming got just shy of 280 grams of decent smoke. Ended up giving a large chunk away as if I am not mistaken local AK law states no more then 4 oz stored before you get in trouble. Considering the side by side grows, the organic mixes yielded less bulk then the coco fed with nutrients. However, the terpene & oil profile on the organic grown is off the charts compared to the nutrient fed!

Next run will be in soil with organic gbd mix as I want to see what I can potentially get from using the correct medium and hope the more correct PH ranges will make them even better then they were this time around.

Next run is already started, and should hopefully be less stressful having finally gone through the whole process!!


After cure both strains smell incredible, the skyrone stomper being my favorite for sure! Would definitely grow again, however need to get some variation before packing in the gear for a year!


Skyrone stomper presses like a dream for rosin, Heisenhound not so much. Heisenhound however had some of the fattest tricks I have ever seen in my life! As i was trimming I could pick the stalks up off the table and feel them hitting me in the face as i snipped sugar leaves.


Last but not least!! Thank you all who followed my journey and offered advice and steered me in the right direction. This community is amazingly helpful and I owe all the results to you fine folks and @mephisto & @gbd
