Yep I remember. Haven't seen @hairyman round much since he had his little electrical mishap. Hope all is well with him.

Had to look back in his posts,i see hes been lucky not to have had a fire with that fan.
Thankfully no one was hurt.Im sure he will be back among the growing once the smoke has died down(pun intended)
I will have to keep more in touch with him when he gets back,ive neglected him and he gets into bother,haha.

 

[Spanglish]

Yep have to give them a try. Our bros @Spanglish and @hairyman both gave them a go. I believe they both thought highly (pun intended) of them.

Oh yeah, and thanks for the rep!

Yeah Ducks,i remember @hairyman s first grow,Tyrone Special and he had a Sour Crack.
He went AWOL for 2 or 3 weeks after chop,haha.Ive read some good smoke reports about Mephisto strains.
Soon to be sampled by myself,if i go missing in a couple of month,you know ive gone looking for hairyman.

HaHa yeah remember that was when harry's misses wanted him to get a shower and stop sitting round naked lol, hope the old boys ok and we see him back around here some time.

Sour Crack is a great smoke though the earlier harvested big girl was a real racy head high like a proper strong Sativa, and the ambered up small girl will just put you out cold if your not careful, they amber up quick also so really got to keep a eye on them to get it where you want it, but apart from that real easy to grow and lightning quick.

Still got one 5g nug left from the top cola of the small girl, after 6 months cure the smell has mellowed into fresh cut leather.

I dont think it will be too long before The Hairyman is back,hes a Scotsman,they dont give in easy.Remember Bannockburn.
Thanks for the heads up about them ambering up quick,i like the quick finish too.My last 2 grows have been 100 and 90 days.
Be nice to get one finished about 10 weeks for a change.
Thanks for dropping in and the rep,its appreciated much.

Day18 2xAlienxTriangle.
Got them on the drip now 3xday ,420ppm,i try to keep the ph between 5.5-6.0 in veg so i go for 5.7 to
allow for a little acceptable drift either way.Im using the AN supplements i have left over,along with the Golden Tree
on this grow.Im using GT at 1ml/5l in veg and will up it gradually to 2ml/5l in bloom.Im using AN supplements
at 1/4 to 1/2 strength.Ive added extra silicon at 2ml/5l,theres supposed to be some in GT but i think a little extra
will help them stretch a bit.
Heres some pics with my new camera,led and cfl on.

Theyve came on a bit since putting them on the drip,after their slow start.
Before anybody says anything,i know my tent needs cleaned out and im a mucky bugger.Im just going to have a cuppa
and a spliff,then i will do it.You know how the script goes......

Small pot still slightly in the lead! Do you think the big pot will overtake her as the grow goes on

Big pot is catching up so must be growing at a faster rate now and if they keep going like this there should only be one winner.
I think the big pot will be slightly bigger with there not being much difference in finished bud weight between the two.
For what really happens keep following and all will be revealed in future bulletins.

Just a couple more pics.

oh some ones got a new camera very nice crisp pics there red got a theory on why the smaller pot seems to out grow the larger pots think the root zone on the smaller pot reaches its confined space quicker making the smaller pot veg quicker still think the larger pot should produce more bud but ive been wrong before (many times if you ask the wife) :smoking:

Loving the new camera mate,ideal for the job with the macro pics.
Ive read somewhere that small pots will shorten veg as the tap root will hit bottom quicker so growth above should start sooner.
Truu`s thread says smaller pots will dry out quicker between feeds and will draw more oxygen over the roots,producing
bigger growth above.For this reason he reckons better yields can be achieved in smaller pots.
Thats why im doing the experiment Wile,to find out for myself which pot performs best.
Coz atm i havnt got a clue which will come out tops.
