Well I'm writing this while listening to The Prodigy's 'Experience'.... smoking a fat doob, remembering the days when you could drop a Rhubarb and Custard and dance like you were Keith
Flint. (Keep on Dancin'.... keep on dancin'.......)
Mitsubishi's, White Doves, Dennis the Menaces.... man those were great days, and the video for Smack my Bitch up was (almost) like the perfect night out!
Wild times, never to be repeated!
Anyway, seeing as it's the middle of the night here, and lights are on (we are moving at 9 times the speed of sound..... Roger) why not take some pics of the Girls.
It's day 66, 13 days into flower, and this is how the tent looks....
clockwise from top left, PAK2, Des Frans, PAK1 and Gorilla.
Looking full and a nice level canopy..... the PAK1 is up on a box to bring her up to the others......
I've realised I have to do more waterings for sure.... once a day (if I can be arsed) is just not enough.... but I'm not used to having lights off, and mine are off between 7.30am and 7.30pm.
I used to be able to go in at anytime and give them a feed, but now I'm only able to do a feed in my evening time... once the kids are down etc... so 9pm maybe.... and that's after having to get rid of a bucket or 2 of run off (by chucking it out into the jungle - we have septic tanks for our 'domestic waste' and bunging nutes in there would be a no no) then to lug 40L up and do the mixing etc.
Come morning time, there's so much to do to get out for work, that I miss them before the lights go out at 7.30am.
So, yesterday I put back the clock on my Harvestmaster by ½ an hour while it was dark, and did it again that evening when the lights were on, so that in the end, I've shifted the clock back an hour... and I can get a watering in before I go to work.
I'll have to be a bit more proactive with my reserve nute, but if I pull my finger out, I could give them a feed at lights on (8.30pm), then before I go to bed (1am), then again before work at 8am.
I'm watering 3 times a day!!!! Better than 4-5 times a week, which is what was going on... doh!
I'm giving EC 1.0 pH 6.0 and they all seem very happy on that.
PAK1 needed the elevation, she is looking sweet as a nut....
She's stretching nicely and her stems are nice and thick with plently of nodes going on....
... and her flowers are beginning to form, with nice crowns already showing....
Everybody is in the place!!! Let's GO!
I swear I can get Ecstasy flashbacks if I try hard enough.....
PAK2 is a BEAST. Look at the size of this Bitch.....
From the top, she is really spreading out.....
Again she's got some chunky stems and is stretching very nicely....
She's very dense, and I have to keep up with leaf tucking and the odd minor defoliation to let the light and air into those numerous bud sites. I'd say she's the most advanced of all of them....
I AM THE GOD OF HELLFIRE, AND I BRING YOU....
Des Frans is also a big Girl and is picking up after all that pH business.... I'm still getting pH4.8 -5.2 run offs, but whatever I'm doing, it seems to be working...
I really stripped her arse out....
From above she has a good amount of bud sites.....
.... athough they aren't quite as developed as the PAKs
Lastly the Gorilla..... she's really picked up, and is taking off!
(.... sent into Outer Space to find another race...)
Her new growth looks really healthy (at last!), so I hope she gives me a nice show for the rest of the grow....
Thanks for dropping in, and thanks, Keith for being that twisted Firestarter. That self inflicted mind detonator.....
......YEAAAAAH
