Update GCA and BBA 1&2 December 21, 2017
Hey Gang! Just a little update and a suggestion that perhaps we start a UBOM (Ugliest Bud of the Month). My GCA could be a shoe-in. All three plants are on Bloom nutes with the only difference being, the BBA’s are still receiving Big Bud supplements and the GCA has moved on to Overdrive supplements as follws:
Sensi Bloom A&B 2.0ml/L,
MagiCal 1.75ml/L,
Terpinator 2.5ml/L,
Hydroguard 2ml/gal,
Big Bud/Overdrive 1ml/L and Bud Candy 2ml/L. I omitted the
Pro Silicate for all plants about three weeks ago when I determined A) It was messing with my pH Perfect nutes and B) as a result of the pH fluctuations the silicate was clumping/solidifying with a tone of sediment that does not play well with autopots. Next grow I will use the advanced nutrients silicate supplement but I forget what it is.
GCA - Day 76 above coco
This gal has been through a lot. She went 3 days without water or nutes when I went out of town. She has been hauled in/out of the tent dozens of times. She blew her roots out of the pot/tray and had to be finished in a makeshift DWC. I think I am seeing some foxtails, not sure but buds are growing out of buds. My pistils are still 90% white and many are straight and my trichs are mostly milky with some amber on older sugar leaves. I present you the ugly buds, cat hair, burnt tips and all. Please comment and any input is welcomed, especially on ripeness lol
BBA1 Day 63 above coco
This young lady, despite being sick looking for weeks, continues to hold her own and appears to filling out nicely.
BBA2 Day 53 above coco
The life history of this plant has been fairly unremarkable. Out of an over abundance of caution and a desire to spare her whatever BBA1 had gone through, I radically transplanted her into fresh coco/perlite which I think is documented above, I don’t recall when I did it but she seems to have liked it and is quite crowded in the tent. I had planned to be harvesting GCA about now but that isn’t gonna happen for a few more weeks I don’t think.
