Dna holy grail

the ace of spades is developing buds faster im still doing a little supercropping to get a full canopy

damn no formation of buds yet? do you think it's going to finish in the 8/9 week time frame dna claims?

im thinking what smellslikeskunkyum posted earlier in this thread might have a ring of truth to it i think this is gonna go beyond 10 wks this is proving to be a slow developer

got to ask, is that mite damage or residue on the leaves?

thats residue ive been overly defensive against the mites i live near several orchards & fields mites around here is a never ending vigil i have to spray every other week

just finished spraying for mites & slowly but surely this stuff is getting buds but its way behind my ace of spades [the darker pics are a.o.s.] im using a certified organic mite spray called organicide you gotta remember youre consuming the finished product so i treat it kind

my order from attitude came in today so here is the line-up 5- subcool spacedawg 3- dinafem critical jack & 1 reserva privada og kush

from the way the buds are forming, it looks like it's a decent yielder. nice little fat head in the first pic.

the first 2 pics are ace of spades

today is 26 days since flipping my light 12/12 no serious bud development yet

don't worry, when they do you won't be able to control yourself, especially if this x hits as hard as you say it did. im surprise dude didn't tell you that you were in for a long run with this x.

mine are taking longer to start budding than his did for some reason

one thing im short on is patience for sure most of my seeds have popped in the 1st.24 hrs & the h/g is starting to produce something that resembles bud nubbins im not gonna put my eggs in one basket i have back-up

ive got a lot of bud sites hopefully they will get some size to them

the stretch continues & my babies are coming around

I had a pheno that was taking way to long. 2 months into 12/12 and it looked like it was just starting to bud. it was in a tent full of other strains doing just fine so it was definitely genetic. i decided to just throw that bitch away because it was just taking up space and I had others on deck. Ive ran a pack and a half and most phenos finished around 10 or 11 weeks. I'm running my last few right now looking for something worth keeping because the ones i've ran weren't impressive at all. imo #18 is much much better than HGK. I'm interested in that purple #18 now.

ive grown purplewreck & ive got to agree the purple 18 catches my interest big time i also beleive you on the hgk as its not proving to be a real barn burner

did you check out the tude dna/rp promo next month? i think im going to order the 18 and sour kush to go with the freebies.

im having trouble posting pics my camera,usb cord or computer is screwed up i can access existing pics but cant upload new ones the holy grail is budding but is way behind the ace of spades i still have babies but im not happy with the holy grail maybe a more experienced grower could get better results but this stuff just dont seem to like me

damn that's not good. i wouldn't be too hard on myself too much about this x, there's been a lot of mixed reviews in regards to the hgk. i've seen more bad reports than good, all i was hoping from this thread was to see it from start to end. kind of why i never really brought into the hgk. hope things really start to pick up for you much sooner than later.
