They look like they're coming along - did you expect faster growth from the ID/AKR? They seem to really be lagging behind.. Maybe that's just me but when I had plants that size at 19 days, I eventually had plants about an inch taller with tons of pistils or balls (depending on sex, lol) looking like they'd yield no more than a gram after they finished (I pulled 'em, so I'll never know).

Deimos and La Diva are looking sexy!

the ID/AK-R male is gone he was a tiny little pheno, the ID/AK-R #1 is younger than the other by almost a week and a half, I expect it to show me its gender within a week though. the La Diva and Snowryder have both shown female the Diemos is feminized but has yet to show me any pistils yet. the Exodus Cheese roots hit the rez yesterday as well


The ID/AK-Rs I expect to stay fairly small definitly dont expect any amazons from them but am hoping for small bushy type plants that should still yeild maybe a half ounce to an ounce each as thier mother was 8.5 inches tall and yielded about 3/4oz.

ok so I have been extremely busy recently and have been in phx for the past five days for work, away from my box and my brother who normally covers in such situations was out of state on a vacation, when i got back home yesterday the box was overgrown, and the rez was empty, the water pump to my surprise was still funtioning when i filled the rez and balanced it. all the roots of all five plants had grown together I did my best to gently seperate the Exodus Cheese from the bunch and I moved it to its own 5 gal DWC unit as all the autos except Diemos are now in early flower. Diemos is still in full veg and showing no signs of slowing down to start flowering... its getting quite bushy. the La Diva had grown into the CFLs and had some burn damage to a few leaves and a small section of one young bud, I trimmed the plants and LSTd the La diva which is still twice the height of any others. she is going to be a hefty yielder and i will preserve her genetics. (LD is now significantly taller than my SCH that is in a 5 gal wicking system, this LD pheno is a big girl)
current PPm in both the EC 5 gal rez and the group rez is 885 with ph of 5.8, I am having some PH issues with the 5 gal rez for the EC although i think its due to some residue of some cleaner I used to clean out the old bucket. I expect to have it balanced and stable by tomorrow night. temp in the box is about 85 and RH is 60%
if I have time tomorrow I will try to post pics.

the Deimos is very bushy now I trimmed her again today and moved her to her own 5gal DWC bucket, the La Diva is owning the box, its massive compared to the others, its taking up most of the 7 gal rez by its self, leaving only the front third of the box for the ID/AK-R f1 and the Snowryder which are both staying fairly small, these two will be similar in size to my Il Diavolo from my last run.

I am starting to wonder when Deimos is going to show me her pistils, she is 31 days old now and still doesnt have a single pistil on her, the seed was feminized though so im sure its going to be a girl, but maybe its slower to auto than the others, not sure how long this strain takes to show sex but all my other autos have shown sex between week 3 and 4.

Inside of the box. The La Diva is in the back taking over and the ID/AK-R (f1) is in the middle left, and the snowryder is in front right. all are in early flowering the la Diva is the farthest along and looks like she could finish fastest.

So my Deimos is still vegging hard, no sign of a single pistil on her. she is at week five now too. looks like she is not going to auto for me under my 20/4 light cycle. still trying to decide what I should do with her since she is not doing the auto thing. maybe I could keep her vegging and let her bloom with the natural fall, or I could force her to bloom by putting 12/12 indoors which will slow my other autos down, which I dont want. shes going to be very bushy as her branches are growing branches, so I could possibly also take clones from her. this one threw me for a loop. any ideas?

back at my pad with my grow for a few days again, damn these girls are doing so well even without me, I love hydroponics. everythings automatic, gone for 5 days and come back everythings thriving. today is going to be maintinence day, also I picked up a small 150w HPS all in one lamp to replace about six of my CFLs that I had lighting the area just outside my box. now the lighting setup for the area about 2x4.5ft is lit by 90w LED 150w HPS and 230w CFL for a total of 470 watts. I wil post new pics today of all the ladies, the La Diva is really kicking ass she is stinky as hell right now smells really swet, almost like overripe fruit and also somewhat skunky. she is also starting to cover herself with frost. the Snowryder despit the shock in its early life is doing very well and the ID/AK-R is doing well also but the La Diva is overshadowing her a bit so shes not as big as I think she could have been with out the crowding.

took six clones from Deimos today going to see how they do.
