Sweet Seeds Yozhik's First Grow: Sweet Seeds Cream Caramel, Cream Mandarine, Devil Cream and Killer Kush

[Hansbricks]

Things are looking really good here buddy! You're killing it for a first grow
The first half is the hardest part and you've obviously given these a great start... nice job keeping the canopy so even as well, you're going to have a shit-ton of chunky buds real soon.

Those Devil Cream's are already crazy purple for day 30 too... looking forward to see how they look in another few weeks.
Any chance we can get some non-HPS pics? Would love to see their true colours... maybe start taking your pics right after lights out is what I usually do.

I hope so !!!!!!

To be honest ... today's pics are pretty damn close.
I found out how to use the RGB filter in GIMP to correct the shit colour from the camera, and the macros loaded today have been adjusted to eliminate as much of that horrendous HPS colour distortion as possible.

Granted, they're not perfect, but they're pretty good representations of the real thing ... and yes ... the Devil Cream HAVE got that amazing contrast ... and YES, the leaves really are turning that dark.

That Devil Cream 1 is a beast. It's the one in the macros that looks like a grapevine.
The Devil Cream 3 has more tops and standard structure, but not the incredible colouring ... yet.

BUT ... I get your point ... the HPS isn't great for creating scratch 'n' sniff reality shots, so let me play around a bit and come up with a solution to see if I can get them even more realistic than today's filtered macros.




EDIT:
Oh ... I need to place a firm caveat on the above ...
I'm Red/Green 'colour deficient'.
When I asked my optometrist what he meant by 'colour deficient', he said, "put it this way, if you're choosing new clothes, carpets or furniture ... take someone with you..."
Soooo ... it means that the red green hues I see, could have zero resemblance to what you see!
In other words ... my image correction and description could be utter shite.

Just had a sneaky peek, through the sneaky peek window, to say goodnight to the girls. before my head hits the pillow.

They're happy as a sty of pigs in shit.
Must be LOVING their recent nutrient smorgasbord.
My even canopy has been destroyed, with random explosions of growth ... which I'm convinced they've done in such a manner as to send me a big ol' one finger salute!

But when that salute affirms the girls are happy ... I'm happy.
They're all standing tall ... arms raised ... praying with everything they've got, to the HPS gods in the ether .
Looks like I'll be spending some time in the tent tomorrow tweaking the BDSM restraints in an attempt to wrestle a sense of order out of the current canna chaos.

I'm going to sleep with a smile on my face tonight ...

woke up ... checked on the girls ... they are still partying and praying.
Big time.

Killer Kush 1 has gone postal ...

Killer Kush 1 ... Evangelist ... praying like there's no tomorrow

Killer Kush 3 ... an ocean of bud sites

Baby Buds lurking in the undergrowth ... will they shoot for the moon?

Buds in training ... no pain, no gain

 

[Yozhik]

Should I? ... or shouldn't I?

I'm considering throwing a 4th HPS at the ladies.
Or maybe I should hold of and serve it to them closer to the end?
Like a turbo boost to really finish them off?

But the 'real world' also demands I balance the [intangible?] benefit to the plants, with the very measurable impact on the power costs.

Hmmm ... decisions, decisions ...

I like to give mine the goose in the middle of flower development rather than the end...

All looks bloody marvellous in there my friend, 1800w is a load of light already….but if you can swallow the extra cost why not, not sure it will equate to 25% extra weight though…you're right decisions.. decisions.

Wow ... what a difference half a day makes!!

This is Cream Caramel 1 this morning ...

This is Cream Caramel 1 moments ago, a just few minutes before 'lights out' ...

Leaves drooping ... I think the girls are telling me they're thirsty!
Definitely not overwatered, or they wouldn't have been praying with arms raised this morning.

Not going to water them now - the lights have just clicked off ... so will get their smorgasbord prepared for a rousing breakfast when they wake up in 4 hours time.

Nothing like a good hearty breakfast to start the day!!

Oh ... and if you were missing a spot of Redhead porn - here's a little taste of Devil Cream in her pyjamas, ready for bed ...
Don't be bashful - she's a bit of an exhibitionist - so use the zoom and feast your eyes on her bits.
