You may want to be shopping for a new pot very soon. She could be a monster.

[progressive13]

[gunjababy]

what are the differences in sativa and indicia ? total noob please dont be mad i ask

 

[The Weed]

gunjababy we need to stop meeting like this...Sativa is a heady high, Indica is couch lock high

 

[progressive13]

lol... a quick copy/paste:

Indica and Sativa are both cannabis strains. Indicas are notably squatter with more crystals while Sativa is more elongated with its crystals kept in the core. Indicas are much more heavier than sativas. The high is more of a body stoned effect versus a more cerebral high from sativa. Many feel that Indica is going to make them sleepier, while Sativa gets you UP... Indicas are easier to grow, Sativas are tougher, but well worth it.

Update:

Ive been using seaweed concentrate for nutes for a week now. Extract of seaweed contains natural plant growth material like auxins , gibberlines and cytokinins.

Applied full strength and foliar fed with 1/4 strength.

How often can i foliar feed? Have any of you ever used seaweed concentrate? i'd love to learn more about this nutrient source...

Here's this week's pic updates:

if not then you might wanna look into it beacuse that plant wont make it far with out it

and i wanna see that baby nice and full of stick buds bro.

I'm trying to source decent pH n TDS meters. Kinda hard to get in this part of the world... i can still manage a soil grow without them but i want to set up an aeroponics jig and i doubt i can manage one of those without decent pH monitoring
