Update #7
The Plants:
- #1 Dutch Passion Star Ryder (10 weeks old)
- #2 Nirvana Blue Mystic (9.5 weeks old)
- #3 Dinafem SourD (9.5 weeks old)
If you’ve been following my grow you know I’ve been focussing on the Star Ryder a lot, that’s because she has always been much bigger than my other two and has demanded a lot of attention, including being a bit of a problem child with the yellowing problem (nitrogen deficiency) I documented earlier. However this week I’m going to let her sit in the background and put the Blue Mystic and Sour Diesel on center stage. I think they deserve it! Both of them are currently sitting in the greenhouse in preparation for a potential heavy thunderstorm tonight, otherwise they are typically outside and getting 10-12 hours of sunlight. After looking at TeeTees update on his
Day 66 monster grow these ladies are pipsqueaks! But I'm proud of them anyway, I put them through their paces in the first month so I'm just happy they are here!
Blue Mystic
So here’s the Blue Mystic, as you can see she has grown up nice and tall, finally seems to be coming into her own. Hopefully I can now focus on keeping her healthy and fattening up those buds as much as possible.

Sour Diesel
The Sour Diesel is looking real nice also, filling out a little bit more than her neighbor. She is being true to her name and is developing a nice pungent smell. I can’t wait to give this one a try!

Star Ryder
Sorry for the bad picture but you may have noticed that she is back inside the grow box where she was born. It’s been extremely humid in my area for the last 4-5 days, we’re talking 95% humidity and some heavy rain 3 days ago. During the worst of the rain I put her into a greenhouse and then last night I spotted the beginnings of what might have been powdery mildew so I brought her inside and treated her as best as I could by carefully cleaning off the white spots and then applying a diluted solution of SM-90 and water. Then I put on the fan to get the air circulating and crossed my fingers. That was nearly 24 hours ago and I’m not seeing any signs, so I’m praying I got to it on time. Heck it may not have even been powdery mildew but I’m not taking any chances!
So for those who pay attention to the
BOTM contest you probably don’t recognize her but
my photograph of this same cola was nominated a few weeks back. Here she is a lot more grown up, pretty amazing! I owe it to all her fans to keep her healthy.
