Looking good. How long did you flower for last time?
got me looking back on my dates now........ok, i believe it was 46-47 days, could of gone a little longer, but it was just growing weird and too solid for my liking, i harvested because i was worried about budrot. I'm thinking i'll reach 50 days, maybe a few more, we'll soon see on her development, things are moving incredibly fast, so i'm keeping a close eye on her. day 40 today :) I'm thinking around 10-12 more days, leaves are dying off now, and cloudy trichs appearing

:weed: speechless
so am i. It's alot of heads!

Your plant looks incredible. Is that really just one plant????
yeah mate 1 plant :) only way i know, kinda easy when you think about it, looking after 1 plant that gets fed automatically 90% oh the heads have their own support with 2 layers of netting. man this should be in the 'how to grow book' got bored late last night, decided to take some really nice new macros, playing around with the contrast and saturation on the camera, fun stuff....

Extracting oil/resin from pure buds with shellite ... some people have asked so here it is

pull the buds apart...
place jar in a container with near boiling water for approx 2 minutes
let it bubble away for that 2 minutes, then transfer unfiltered mix to a bottle
This is where you filter it into your pyrex dish to evaporate with a fan
this is the stage where i get the hair dryer out
within minutes......then scrape it out onto the underside of a can purge the rest of the chemical out by heating with a small candle underneath, CAREFUL NOT TO BURN!! repeatedly cool in the fridge or freezer, and repeat purging/curing the final product
now you can play with it like a little boy. BUT BE CAREFUL NOT TO SMEAR IT ANYWHERE BUT ON YOUR BOWL!!! YOUR MRS WILL NOT BE HAPPY IF SHE GETS HER SOCK STUCK ON THE KITCHEN FLOOR WITH A GLOOP OF STICKY RESIN. I LEARNT... have fun all and enjoy, and be safe!! NO FLAMES NEAR CHEMICALS OF THIS NATURE! and be sure to purge all remaining shellite before consuming. it will have a magical taste when you have purged correctly, if not it will still smell chemically, keep going

Cheers HP :) whats your thoughts on 10-14 days??

50 days? And I thought I was insane stopping at 56.
lol, ive never gone over 50 days, but my mentor goes 8-9 weeks sometimes to get the extra yield, i couldnt imagine leaving buds this huge any longer, could u imagine the inside if these buds!? sticky, and very little room to breathe, they have a much more different characteristic than your strain while flowering, u can see, even though i barely used PGR's the buds are still very stocky, short and wide, some of them maybe around 10 inches long, i can clearly see some half ounce colas there :) I am very proud of myself for strategically placing my 2 nets this grow. It will help my yield immensely.

Looks about right to me, i usually just go off the scope ur cloudys are coming in so it might be a little sooner but 10-14 sounds about right.

hey flowie just fed some grow xl to one of my plants at half strength, just wondering if you went full strength or not?
You have to use full strength XL or it simply will act as a ph down. and saying that, you must MUST!!!! PH ADJUST, AND WAIT 1 HR BEFORE YOU FEED, and check ph again before you feed, they dont tell you this, because they can't, i know from a source, the idea of XL is it activates the phosphates and turns them into purified phosphates, by purifying, and breaking down unusable salts. u must use full strength, but if you're not sure give me your res size and i'll work it out. i have a 40 litre res, and i used 20ml. exactly .5 per litre be warned, but not alarmed, when you add XL i bet u saw the ph change, it drops dramatically, and should drop down below 4 for a short while, before it activates the phosphates, if you have a airstone, you will see the difference it will make. after an hr or so of mixing in xl the ph will go up slighly, so wait, and dont add too much up, thinking it needs it. and while its feeding, monitor ph, before during, and each hour after, as it will change the acidity dramatically!, but trust me, look at my plant, it wouldnt be like this without it!! so glad i bought 3 bottles of the shit!!! and out of 100ml, i only need 20ml! hope that helps, and if you've already added some, add the rest, and use it for the whole week, but no need to top up imo. if you need to top up, leave it to the last minute, so you can use up all the available phosphates. u will see a ridiculous growth spurt in the next few days, keep me informed :) i see u on the aussie thread, feel free to post here

Nice man i can tell what ur trics are threw ur photos so its a good camera for sure!!!

lol, thanx man! they do look sexy don't they, who would of thought a compact camera could do such a thing!!??
