hey CF good lookin lady u gots there... scribed. lovin the purp! i did the same thing u did i started them under cfls and then i bought a 250mh/hps setup and my plants love it now, way better. im still veggin but check out my grow if u wanna lemme know what ya think. ill be watchin love the fat buds bro...
Haha thanks dude they cost like 8 or 9 bucks a piece whihc kinda sucked but im not mad about it. Now that i use an hps i got some cool white bulbs in those clip on lamps for a fuller spectrum
i was gonna feed it w molasses.. wait 6 days.. nute it again.. then flush. So sinse im watering tomarow i plan on starting my flush in 11 days or so. There r almost no red hairs the top 5 inches of the colas.. alot of new growth still everywhere up top
maybe 2-3 weeks left i just gave it nutes and molasses today. Next watering will be a flush with molasses added and then flush with molasses after that (no more nutes). Should i use molasses even on the final flush? Heres some pics from today while i was feeding.. enjoy!
everyone says just use plain water the last two weeks, it affects the taste of the buds, but its your choice, it wont hurt growth to keep nute or molassis on em, just the taste- thats what i have heard.
But those buds look top notch, very big- working the whole damn stem- cant wait to see em trimmed and then the final dry product, very nice!
Thanks alot guys! haha ya im aware that if i leave nutes in my plants then it wont achieve its full natural flavor potential (will have a bad taste in it). But i read that molasses will actually improve the flavor.. i know its an ongoing debate and its just an opinion basically but does anyone else like to use molasses through the end of the grow or do u guys choose to flush it with just plain water the last 2 weeks?
looking very tasty CF can't wait to see that final product...hopefully mine look that good when i get to flower them. just a lil bit longer and ill start to flower mine...new pics tomorrow if u wanna check it out...keep up the great work. i couldn't help you out with the molasses ordeal as this is my first grow but will defineitly take some notes from this thread...thanks have a good one bro peacez
I just read a post recently about flushing with apple juice to increase the taste as well- and the author (cant remember who, but knowledgeable RIU member) also said that other fruit juices work as well in the last flush to add flavor and taste. The ratio of a cup to a gallon was mentioned but that seems strong. But kind of a cool option i am considering doing with one or two plants for comparison.
But those buds look killer, filling all the space on the stalk- those should have some weight, keep us posted with those final pics and a harvest weight!
