Sounds excellent man im excited already haha That strain sounds gorgeous as well! Your going to have some good smoke for Christmas!!! And the grow sounds like its still going really well keep it up! When do you reckon you'll germ the seeds ready? Will you have to wait to harvest these girls or can you set up a temp for the beginning of their veg?

This grow should finish out by the second week of July (third week tops)
This grow needs to finish up being I am making some adjustments to some things before I start.
I intend to germ on August 5th according to the moon cycle
lol
I am still really excited about this current grow don't get me wrong...
I had just been thinking about doing this for a while and have finally figured it all out enough to share it with you all.
Besides I just purchased the seed on Bidzbay yesterday and still need to send payment / receive shipment so
if everything goes well I will have things in place in time to follow my schedule.

Pictures after work today from Emily and the Girls :joint:

yeah, I just hope I am up to the task.
ScroG can get work intensive and that strain sounds like it will keep me busy as well

Hundreds of budsites

That should keep me hoppin' eh?
Your plant looks amazing too T
Mine have almost 6 weeks still (which is seeming like forever)
But they are getting dusty looking and upon closer inspection they shimmer and sparkle.:weed:
I am gonna finally cheat a bit and take a small bud from a site in the back away from the light, I may take a few from several plants that I feel will never reach maturity due to them being completely shaded
and do like you did and practice curing them to be sure I do it right when the time comes.
each plant has at least one that is under and out of the light.
That should clean up the grow deck a little and give em better air circulation as well as allow the girls to concentrate their efforts on the bigger more developed bud sites.
Its an exciting time to be sure.
About a week ago I snipped off a very tiny branch that I broke accidentally
and microwaved it (lol)
It was like smoking a pine cone (one of my favorite flavors)
So more developed ones should be nice as a "test"
Thanks for your support guys

initial Drawings for ScrOG (next grow)
This is how the distances work out as well as how I intend to attach screen and still be able to remove reservoir.
Let me know if you see any fatal flaws...

let us know how the "test" smoke tastes/feels.
just went back to the beginning and checked out the building of the artificial wall and watched that video again. i need one of those, life would be so much easier, well growing would be easier at least.

sorry i keep jacking your thread with questions, but one more if you would please.
i've got an iron deficiency, what would you use to bring it back up to par?

Iron
An Iron deficiency will mask a Magnesium deficiency. If you look at the newer growth, that will be where the plant exhibits the intervenial chlorosis typically differentiating it from a Magnesium deficiency.

there you go look again
otherwise:
Iron (Fe)
Iron is an important component of plant enzyme systems for electron transport to carry electrons during photosynthesis and terminal respiration. It is a catalyst for chlorophyll production and is required for nitrate and sulfate reduction and assimilation.
Iron deficiency:
- Pronounced interveinal chlorosis similar to that caused by magnesium deficiency but on the younger leaves.
-Leaves exhibit chlorosis (yellowing) of the leaves mainly between the veins, starting with the lower and middle leaves.

Caused by factors that interfere with iron absorption of roots: over irrigation, excessive soluble salts, inadequate drainage, pests, high substrate pH, or nematodes. This is easily corrected by adding an iron supplement with the next watering.

Fe is unavailable to plants when the pH of the water or soil is too high. If deficient, lower the pH to about 6.5 (for rockwool, about 5.7), and check that you're not adding too much P, which can lock up Fe. Use iron that's chelated for maximum availability. Read your fertilizer's ingredients - chelated iron might read something like "iron EDTA". To much Fe without adding enough P can cause a P-deficiency.

Note : When adding iron to the solution, it is often necessary to not use fertilizer for that watering. Iron has a tendency of reacting with many of the components of fertilizer solutions, and will cause nutrient lockup to occur. Read the labels of both the iron supplement and the fertilizer you are using before you attempt to combine the two.

Iron Toxicity:
Excess accumulation is rare but could cause bronzing or tiny brown spots on leaf surface.

you always have super nice photos man, what kind of camera/optical package do you use?
Click to expand...
It's just one of those little digital cameras.
a Nikon L3
I use a tripod and turn off the fans to get sharper images with out blurriness
found the white balance feature on my camera where I can point it at something white and it corrects for the color of the light too.
That helps a lot
I bought the camera for my wedding vacation about a year ago and only cost me about 150USD online I think.
Thanks, I like the fuzz covered close-ups myself :leaf:

Heh thanks Bamn

Thanks T
I sure hope its that good.
Nipped a small bud from No4 last night
Didn't expect it to get me high but it did a little (still long ways to go)
Thing is it tasted so mush like lemons!
I ate afterward and even after eating all I could taste was a powdery lemon flavor.
