Fear and Loathing in Las Phoenix

Aqua Man said:
Yeah

Yeah thats not ideal. After transplant longer is normal. Ideally every 2-3 days means the pot size and media drainage is in a good place. Its a combination of things but the pots if the same size and different material would be a good place to start looking

Ok cool and yeah they are considerably thicker(500g) and seem to be of different material than other fabs I have. Should have known something was wrong with how often I have not felt the need to water. Was fearful of watering too frequently because I thought it would bring the el gnatos. Guess I shot too far the other way. Maybe adding some perlite would help next grow? I'd really like to use this soil again but just reamend. I'm not sure what to do so will just plan to water in what I top dressed 1st lights on manana and cross fingers. Maybe I can just water with Molasses from there on out but shoot for less volume but more frequently. Thanks Aqua
 
6 weeks through flower update

Top dressed yesterday and hopin will last through harvest. Bubba Kush is actually beginning to amber up a bit. Getting some real strong and unique scents from all plant except the Vanilla Frosting. She seems a bit anti-trich but I have faith. Thanks a ton to all that have helped me make it this far. Feel I'm 2-5 weeks from some homegrown again 🙏

Thanks brotha and you as well. Noticed today that I think one of the 7 girls may be turning purple. The Vanilla Frosting from Anesia Seeds. Always wanted one that may show some random hues. I've heard it is quite random and that cooler temps can cause it to happen. She has the tiniest of flowers and has leaves that make her appear over-watered. Now that she is turning colors she is stealing my heart lol
How you been man? Got any grows under way?Screenshot_20230625_135227_Gallery.jpg

Tell me, "Where did you sleep last night" indeed my friend. Can you get a couple of cans of garbanzo beans; separate and put beans in a container. I add it to the water, but bubble first, the plants will say "hey down in old Siam the plants get young coconut water." So use both of them. Plant italian basil, it increases terpenes. You crushed this 🦨🦨🦨🦨

Looking stellar my friend. I love seeing you slay a grow! That one is starting to fade and looking gorgeous. 👍
Click to expand...
Yoo Nesta what it be? Appreciate the kind words and hope I don't fly completely off the tracks in the weeks ahead. I have put off even "thinking" about wtf I'm going to do if one of the plants for instance was ready to chop lol let alone a plan for 7 plants that will likely be finishing at different times. May just have to turn the upstairs bathroom into a dry/cure room for a good month. I think the VF leaves turning dark/purplish are due to my nighttime temps. I've stopped fighting with my dang home thermostat because I keep losing. At night it clicks the AC on to 74 and tent temps hit 68-69. I'm hoping she keeps changin hues though. The contrasts of purple and darker colors once they do fade is just trippy. Hoping for some Purple/Blue fade to Yellow at the end. Hows your girls lookin? Pretty sure I subbed but I miss a lot of notifications cause I'm a stoner hah

Thanks brotha. Yeah had to bust out the loupes and digi-scope to peep where we at with the Bubba Kush. I was actually expecting more amber but am happy I'm not there yet cause I'm not prepped for this yet. If anything I think I am still in the some still clear but most are getting cloudy range.
Strangely enough the VF is the only plant of 7 with literally no terps to speak of. Least amount of trichs too but I have yet to experience what seems "terp-less". You could stick a tiny flower up your nose and nada, zip, not even like some sort or plant material. All other 6 plants you can almost smell by looking at them. Every one has distinct sticky icky terps but not the VF. At this point I'm wondering if she is just gong to be an ornament lmao

Wait what? I have tons of garbanzo to make hummus with. Also have Coconut oil. Is that some form of SST? I have Triacontanol powder, Organic Alfalfa, and rare heirloom blue shaded corn. All with intentions of some day knowing how best and when to use.

What's up man? I'm about to chop myself this week or the next. Your plants look real good

Did you see the hash I made using that bottle method? It's def worth the effort. It's so crazy how just a little crumb of hash can put out so much smoke!!!

Oh and that package is in the mail.

You know what Jack Burton says when they start asking, have i paid my dues, yeah, check's in the mail.

Lol

:ROFLMAO: That's fkin awesome and much appreciated my man. Here are a few pics of strains you getting back. Pics can be a bit deceiving though. I consider this Kat a pro-grower and he pushes these plants to extreme limits. CO2 maxed, conditions ideal, etc. Really hopin he comes aboard the part train here. Awesome guy the I know would fit in real well.

Super amped to have found out what the SnS I'm growing consists of. He is making something wicked nasty good with it now but the cross for the beans he so generously gifted me are his White Widow that was my 1st grow, crossed with his GG#4 👏🎊

I find it cool af and quite the learning lesson that I'm growing beans from Anesia Seeds, Top Shelf Elite, Greenhouse Seed Co, and Seedstockers, yet a little known breeder in AZ makes something that for sure has the best flower to node spacing ratio, smells like you walked in on a Lemony haze festival orgy with hints of octane, and will net the most dry flower. If I could do it all over again, I'd run just 1 or 2 of the SnS and fill the tent

ya mon I hear ya. I'm tryin to let it go and just try to touch base with some growmies/growmettes the best I can. I "followed" many members and clicked "watch" to tons of threads and by default sort of lost the notifications functionality by way of DDOS :ROFLMAO:
Tried the Bubba Kush after 2 day dry yesterday and was quite pleasantly surprised. You try anything you grow out yet for sheets and geegles?

Hell yeah man what kind of flavor you getting from the BK?
Im finishing off the Banana Krumble, still got plenty of it. I smoked all the better stuff, not that this is a bad strain, but i didnt like the pheno as much as the others. Like the White Widow I grew for instance, waay better flavor. Effects of Banana Krumble are pretty good though, kind of indica-ey but not too much.

I cant wait to try some of my next crop, the kings juice and candyclysm. Honestly both of them smell awesome, like some of that dank dank you know when you smell it. Didn't you say you had Kings Juice seeds too? Well this pheno is not the most aggressive vegger and its bud is not as huge as the candyclysm but holy-smokes it smells so strong, way stronger than anything ive grown yet. Ima post a pic of it on my thread

What you looking forward to smoking most out of your current crop?
Here is the Banana Krumble im vaping on.

Ya know I don't think it will be indicative of final result because was lil larf bud and 2 day dry but damn if I wasn't taken back a bit by the high. Was quick and clear and like whoa. Did get some fruity, sugary, guess best put as bubblegummy notes on a hit but another and it wasn't there. Have high hopes for the Bubba Kush though as the cola formation is different than all the others and the smell from the trichs is straight pink bubblegum from when we were young. Like big league chew days playing baseball in centerfield. I would say the Big Bud has colas that are closest in formation. So wild how they all differ so much.

Yeah that Banana Krumble is the winner in tent 1 as far as quantity. Will pawn the others for sure. The Black Valium and Imperium X have only like 8-10 colas but they are icing up and stink pretty bad. My mom says when she drops her dog off and opens garage she gets a wiff that almost knocks her down. I'm realizing that my porting air into the attic is causing it to smell outside and the attic is the 3rd floor :ROFLMAO:

Damn yea I "wished" I got the KJ but only stared at pictures for an eternity and I think it is when I chose the Krumble and the Bubba Kush instead. It is a must have though and maybe we can play some Bean Warfare and trade some shiz.

Hah that is getting tougher each day. I guess it is easier to say which I'm not looking forward to. Unless the Vanilla Frosting(fugly duckling turned slightly swan-liek in flower) develops some trichs and/or terps, then she is just been an ornament.
I'm pretty evenly excited about the other 6 though. I'd say the SnS, Bubba Kush, Black Valium, Imperium X, Banana Krumble, Big Bud, Vanilla Frosting, in that order of lookin forward to them.
This is the Bubba Kush nuglet from the other day I smoke and the other is the Ugly Duckling that wishes could be a swan hah

Looks good man, and the plant looks good too even if its not triched up enough for you. How many weeks you gonna take this crop?

Hah you shouldn't. I've too much time ahead to still foul things up. Have been known to get lost in a paper bag as well as lose most 1 horse races :ROFLMAO:

Means much that they appear aight to you though brotha, very much so.

Thanks brotha Z. As far as crop you mean that Vanilla Frosting or all of them? I really haven't checked trichs yet on any but the 3 in tent 2(Bubba Kush, Big Bud, SnS) and the BK and BB look like maybe only a week or so to go, while the SnS I think can still go a week-2 further than them. Tent 1 I'm not even sure at all but today being 7 weeks through flower, it is certainly time to get jiggy with the trich observance. Took another lower of BK and also a BB and SnS to test. Will be far from indicative of final result but also help keep me far from the disp hah

Amazing job your doing coco...a very nice.

Hah that is wild. I described the terps to a friend last night like a big league chew truck slam into a gas station :ROFLMAO: It really does have both octane-like terps as well as a strawberries-ish gum note to it. This morn I could resist and clipped another lower larfer branch that should have never been. THink I may have over an eighth dry combined, of Bubba Kush, Big Bud, and Saturday Night Special to look forward to in the coming days 🤗

Nope you are right. Future dance moves are certain and to get likely more joyous. If I can just keep temps down I think I can get through this. I have my portable AC running as back up in case AC to house kicks off and goes awol ECO mode while I happen to be taking a napski. Can't believe I might get these 7 strains to be smokable. Funniest part is most of the day I'm thinking about my next grow because of the genetics :ROFLMAO:
