Ok so my original plan was white skunk & pineapple express but the pineapple express did not pop. So here we are with the blue dream instead. The WS is 10-12 days old and the BD is 2-3 days old. I have one WS in hydro n one in soil and the BD is in soil as well. Also when I was setting up I dropped the pump on the baby so I have her tied up with a straw and a twisty right now. I'm running the cyco nutes that I won this go round and the soil is sub's super soil.

Ok here we go so another week down a and things r going smoothly so far. The hydro is smashing it while the soil is staying compact though I did add mammoth p to the hydro earlier this week so not sure if that is why she is killing it or not.I just watered the soil with mammoth p today so let's see what happens there. The other containers are herbs for the kitchen so they are not staying just getting them started.

So starting 3rd week n still doing good. The hydro is taking off but having a Lil problem with pH wanting to stay around 7/7.5 but other then that they are doing lovely. Oh and the white skunk is stinking to high heaven already so I can only imagine what she will be like in flower. So now I'm also running my exhaust filter. I just got my ro machine from pure water club so no more buying ro water from store.

OK time for another up date. Going into week 4 n boy oh boy theres not not a lot going on. Both girls in soil are starting to stretch out the bd is stretching more than I like but looks healthy, the WS is finally starting to stretch for me but not much else but also looks really healthy. For my WS in dwc not a lot of change there either I did however get her pH under control so all is well for now. The be and the WS dwc have been topped waiting for the other WS to stretch a Lil more be for I top her. Also the temps really dropped a couple of times this last week so I'm sure it slowed down the growth a Lil bit. But on to Some pics

OK small update I know its been awhile. So right now the soil game is on point. They are smaller but just look better all around but less smell then the hydro. The hydro is kinda of all over the place definitely not what I remember growing years ago. I have learned a lot over the last week or two. 1 is that I was running the LEDs way to hard which I believe was keeping my girls small. 2 gonna have to run my soil a Lil longer to get my girls as big as I like em. So my next run will be all soil but I expect great things. Would have took more pics but light just went out. Till next time.

I'm keen to see your white skunk hey, I saw some grown out a while ago and the person said the same thing about smell, really strong skunk smell. He said the smoke was very potent too!

Yeah she was my first grow years ago n loved it, It was dwc just like now. With that said the soil side looks so much better than the dwc but the dwc has a much stronger smell. The first time I grew her out it smelled like oranges and a skunk this time just a skunk. The high was very up beat n happy, dont remember how long it lasted but can't wait to finish them out to compare an see if its anything like I remember.

OK guys I know its been awhile but been extremely busy. With that said a lot has happened good and bad. First with the bad; my hydro took a turn for the worse on me when I was working 12/14 hour days n could not check on her. Her pH dropped below 5 and locked up.it took me a week just to get it under control after a week of not knowing. Now for the good both of my girls in soil are beautiful small but beautiful. The BD will definitely be given another shot if her smoke is any good and the WS is the smallest in the tent but has the best structure. I really can't wait to try these lovely ladies out. Oh one last thing the WS in hydro is throwing balls I'm sure from the stress caused from her pH problems but none the less, I Also know it is completely all on me that it happened.

OK guys time for another update. The blue dream is doing good but is starting to show what looks to me to be cal/mag deficiency. But over all looks really good the nose on here is almost like a dirty dog is the only way to describe It. The white skunk in soil just looks awesome shes loosing her shine but still a nice green with no burn at all. Her nose is a coffee candy smell, really lovely. Both soil girls have nice tight hard bugs the size of a lighter with the WS like a baby bic. Now on to my girl in dwc; she is starting to throw new roots and stacking up nicely after her pH dropped still dont like her growth pattern at all she kinda flops everywhere like she has no strength at all. Leaves twist n turn for no reason almost like its a formula 1 track or something. But she has definitely started stacking buds and trics and what Lil new growth there is looks good. I will say I'm not sure what's going on with this grow in dwc. Not sure if its the cyco nutes or the adding of mammoth p but sense it flipped to flower the pH has wanted to stay around 4.5/5 so I will stop with the mammoth p for a week to see if that helps. Now let's get to some pics.

Those are all of the BD these next ones will all be of the WS soil and dwc must also say that I'm having a hella time keeping temps down so will be figuring that out this week as well.

What up guys? so have some major problems come up with the dwc part of the grow over the last 2 weeks. First she had a nitrogen deficiency got that handled then her pH went all over the place so I dumped the mix washed her roots off and made a new mix. She was happy as could be started throwing new roots gaining more weight everything was great till last night.

So last night I go to check on them and she is laid over limp no strength at all like she just completely stopped drinking. So I checked pH it was good temps were in the low 80s like 81-82 humidity was in upper 40s so I dumped the mix again and went with pH tap water to see if that did anything as of yet its staying the same.

I have decided to pull everything sense the other 2 in soil are bout done anyway tricks are all cloudy. I have plucked a couple small buds from both girls in soil n so far the Lil WS is amazing the bd on the other hand is blah but smell wise is the best, smells like candy in the cure jar. I dont have pics right this sec but will post some tonight.

On a side note I will not use cyco nutes again veg was great but soon as I went to flower I had nothing but problems with pH or sumething else so thats my experience with them and with that said it could be my fault the at I had all the problems but I have used a few others (AN, FF) and not had this many issues.

On to the next grow, which will be OG-Malibu pie, Connoissuer-rainbow Jones and G13- pineapple express.
