First two weeks since photoperiod 13/11 started and they've been taking it well, also the UVB lights are timed with the main lights so full exposure at 24 inches from the canopy.
(With Flash)
First Pheno to flower, one little shy pistil. She is not my favourite pheno but considering she is the first to induce flower could use this trait for breeding also (faster flowering) we will see how she turns out.
First flowering Pheno #3
Then we have my Pheno #1, I had already chosen because she is the best looking Pheno out of all the little ones, so I keep fingers crossed for this one to be a girl, I would really like this particular traits, she is very symmetrical and fast grower, very healthy.
Pheno#1 (breeding)
Pheno #2 which is the Sativa looking Pheno I had previous seen in my grows, well she is very far behind, she is very a slow grower so Im not really sure if I want it after all...
As for the Blue Berry, she seems pretty stable despite the bad shape of the few left over fan leaves, also seems to have stop shooting new leaf and more calyx, the bottom grow is slowly filling with young calyxes, the top of the plant seems to be showing more and more new pistils, still not in massive amounts but you see the new from the old. Very dense core very dark green, I can't see the stems on the top part of the plant. Smell is kicking in and I have been taking more care of her since she was affected by the overwatering of the first month, Im letting her dry the soil I don't water this plant as regularly as the rest. Top grew almost 1 cm since lastime I measured and its looking like calyxes stack up one by one... Cant wait to see what 12/12 is going to bring to these ladies... For how long this plant has been showing pistils and pistils they look immature and the plant doesn't seem to be in full flower mode, I don't see aging amber trichomes they look really immature not fully developed, everything I see in this plant tells me so many different things, all I can do is wait 2 more weeks to let her see the new 12/12 photoperiod to see how she takes it.
Tomorrow I will water the garden with Jacks blossom booster 10-30-20 as part of my mid month nutrient watering.
One last thought on photoperiods, I've been thinking about this idea of a lighting schedule for long flowering strains (Sativa Dominants or Landrace Equatorial strains, pure Sativas). Goes from Vege to flower in a period of 3 1/2 to 4 months, starting from 24hrs of light for the first week and subtracting an hour by every week passing. 24/0 week1 - 23/-1 week2 - 22/2 week3... and so on until you get to 12/12 week13 - 11/12 week14 - 10/12 week15. This is going to be my next experiment with photoperiods, to see how smooth the flowering goes and to see if its a time & money saving efficient light schedule. The plant should have almost equal amounts of light weeks to vegetate (8 weeks avg) and flower (6 weeks avg) and the total days of the grow are 120. This is just a hypothesis I have not tried it yet, I don't think its been done...
Your experiment is coming together. Hope your endeavors bear some fruit. Your girls are looking really good and healthy. Hope your Freetheweed day is a good one. Happy Days
