I used soil . And the plant topped out at about 26 ". Usually the plant grows twice as high as the pot it's planted in . From my past experience

smell is of cheese and skunk , tastes like berry on exhale , quite strong and long lasting hit , very compact buds once you get inside , im hoping my others are going to be more on the sleepy side

I had 3 , 1 was topped twice the others were not topped, get your temps to drop low in the last two weeks and the whole plant will turn purple , cheese louise those buds are looking great, how long have you been curing, also i used bio bizz with grow n bloom with added nirvana by advanced nutrients through weeks 3 to 6.
 
well i didnt cure anything yet =) , but its very nice
I used 50% soil and 40% perlite 10% vermiculite , pebbles at the bottom
I used HESI feeds and i must say im very impressed I used at full strength every feed
during VEG I would water every , day the HESI root stuff is awesome
in flower every other day and at 3 weeks added the HESI phosphorus +

I used http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0pEo-qgHhE this video as a guide on how to feed .
the plants seemed to love this stuff and smell taste is spot on
Ill have some more pics soon

Sounds good bro, nice job well done, my nugs are still cureing and are smelling better by the day, smells really fruity ending with the cheese, will hit a bong on 14th day of cure and after that let it cure for another 5 or 6 weeks, going to do a little smoke report, would like to hear how your bc tastes and smells. Peace

@Lamont2890 miracle grow should never be used when growing cannabis as it burns the hell outta plant plus never really organic try use foxfarm or somthing of that nature
 
ok im back took some at 63 days and some at 70
63 days was a very uplifting experience but they stoney effect was not as strong as the 70 days which tasted and smelt soo much nicer but was less uplifting , the stone is real nice reminds me of some good hash back in the early 90s / on first toke (pipe) you notice instantly you have smoked some it is what i call (an under eye hit) where your bottom lid swells , then after a few mins my mind is racing with thoughts but the body seems happy just to sit and watch the mind at work , its not what id call couch lock its somewhere in between , smoke too much and you will need a siesta .
yield was good (i dont weigh stuff ) so can only guesstimate i used a 400w hps and a 1 meter by 1 meter grow room and i got 2 Celebration tubs (885g) size full .
as for the buds they are leafy but this is not a problem as the little leaves are absolutely socked in crystals once you break through the thin layer of leaf its all bud inside (mine had tiny seeds only viewable under the microscope )
smell = amazing and very strong , like a posh version of cheese =D
taste / smoke = harsh like hash (this is a good thing for me) i just put it down to the amount of crystals on exhale is where you get the berry tastes
hit = strong and long oldskool stoner
I would grow again it has a slightly longer flower that some but its only a couple of weeks so no big deal , I would give it food up till week 10 next time and maybe leave it 1 extra week just to see :-)

Blue Cheese is an 8-10 week strain. For me I find it just right at week 9. The longer you wait the more "couchy" the high will be. Anything sooner than 8 weeks is a no no though. I find the buds explode weeks 6 thru 8. You will kn ow what i mean when you start too look for some redening of the pistil haris and come week 8 they are still completly white right to the top! Its a long strain but worth the wait, yeilds well and tastes and smells abseloutly fantastic. It is sensitive to nutes, especially nitrogen. The leaves will claw like a rams horn befor any of the leaves show signs of nute burn so watch for that and you will be bale to catch over fert early.
Top advise right there - particularly the bit about leaves clawing. I find that an issue with many of the Blueberry crosses - experiencing it with some Sannies Sugar Punch right now (has true blueberry sativa in it's genetics). Took me ages to discover it was connected to nitrogen - like you say, no nute burn, just leaves that look like runner beans.

I'd agree I've grown tha Barneys cheese and took it down at 8 weeks but it could ov easily have gone 9 or 10

BC ind/sat pheno`s at week 8. Just wanted to add some more examples. I had hoped to chop at 9 weeks, but it looks more like 10 attm.

Using the number 4 as the word 'for' in a sentence with loads of numbers in is a right spin out. I've had to smoke .5 of sativa to get my head round that. ;-)

I believe this to be a blue cheese cut of some form.









I yielded 439g dry from 4x2ft tall plants under 400w.


It took 12 weeks of 12/12. Around 10 weeks of actual flowering.

The worst that can happen is you get a pic fucking plant. Lol.

You could force flower it by taking it indoors into a pitch black room for 12 hours every day. Or just wait for the sun to do its thing.

There is no "amount of time" to flower. Your BC will grow at a different rate than anybody else's. Get a microscope and do a little Google search on when to harvest based on trichome potency.
 
People usally want a redish tint but i read you want creamy blue cheese cromes. Thanks for your pointers, i just get nervous because she is getting pretty big and i thought she was about to flower. I want her to flower later so she can get cold on her way out. So im in luck then. I aslo thought she would be done in end of july by her size and i was getting nervouse because July/August are pretty humid here in NY..and BC molds easy
