Cheers man :)

Mine's vegging under a 600w MH hence why i think it is growing real slowly! She's picking up pace now though and from experience with slow to veg sativas, im.pretty sure this girl will stretch like crazy in flower ;)

And Puff, if you really want to keep upping the nutes, do it 1 mL at a time, that way you'll know how much to go back to if it burns. She's looking good though man, real good :D
I veg from sprout with 400 watt cmh and I have experienced very vigorous growth from FS c99

Hmm interesting Kite, thinking this G13 Labs C99 may be completely different to the FS version, will be interesting to see how it flowers in comparison :) this one I'm growing also has a smell of dank when you touch it but otherwise doesnt smell at all!

I agree with kite ^^
it seems to be working fine the way you are doing it.
do you have another kind of food for flowering?
I tried looking up food for chilies, and only found tomatoe food.
No I am going on Kites advice for this grow to not use bloom food. This chilli food is called chilli focus with added seaweed, by growth technology. its npk is like 3:1:4 and is geared towards chilli plants, but interestingly chilli plants are magnesium and calcium loving plants ,just like weed, and this food is geared toward that.

Cheers man :)

Yeah good advice ec, I will do it that way, I was gonna go up 7.5 then 10.. but 1 ml a time would be safer..

Maintain green leaves and no burnt tips and your golden. Having not really used that product that's the best I can advise. She looks good from what I see.
thanks man, I will try and keep em green

Good to see you back puff! I see you went for the C99 again. Any reason why that strain again? :D pity neither of our NL turned out the way they should have! Ive got another scrog grow going at the moment. Have a critical jack going at the moment. tis 25 days into flowering. Think im getting the same fucking problems as my nl though :(

hey jasper thanks for dropping in. Going with the c99 again as I was so chuffed with it overall from a growing and smoking experience, top weed in my book. Nice and strong, great high, low tolerance build up. But the low odourness of last time is what really clinched it. This time is still fairly low odour but a little danker smelling. Actually I think I've just sussed it out, she seems to stink a lot in the morning, and then you can't smell her at night.. weird..

So you got root rot again? Don't know what to say man, I know very little about hydro. Maybe you should try soil grows..

My C99 showed sex today:) I have an Atomic Bomb plant that is the same age, and she showed today too. lol
I'm hoping for 2.5 zips off each with my 250w hps. Around 0.5g's per watt.

Thanks Puff!
So far so good. She's really taking off now.
I'm hoping the next couple months goes by quick! :joint: I can't wait to try some C99, and have bunch to myself. lol
Hope your Cindy's doing well!

Yeah she's going good man. On the whole quite healthy ,though starting to have a few issues with yellowing fans at the base of the plant. I'm wondering if it's either low light, or because I have been giving it unneeded magnesium sulphate. The thing is this food i'm using is very nitrogen rich, I tried bumping it up 1 ml more last week and it burnt a tip slightly and I got 1 or 2 smaller leaves twisting and 1 or 2 larger fans clawing down very slightly, and overall she's very green so I think the 5mls I been giving her is all she wants N wise, so leaves me wondering why those lowers are yellowing... could it be low light?

She looks great though generally, and the main stems are now hitting 20 inches, even after all the tying down.

Flowering is at day 14 from pistils and 24 from flip. Very slow, probably because I flipped too early, and hopfully not because this food I'm using is not going to work, though kite says they are flowering as a result of the light change not the food, so prob just because I flipped too early.

Sorry, but it's shitty camera phone pics from now on..

Well i thought i had root rot. Not sure if it has receded due to being fed h2o2 for two weeks but plants look awesome so far :D And next time im defo going the soil way. And from your grows and others looks like C99 will be one of those included in that grow :)

I'm totally sold on the Female Seeds C99. I love those damn sativa blades. Definitely going for those when I order some more beans.

Your cindy looks realy nice puff. I just read about the whole switching to 12/12 and when you actually count flower days. Its like 7-10 days so mine is at 31 days now into 12/12 so essentially 25 days of flower. i like to think of it as 31 :D less time left in my head!
