The Living Medicine Cabinet

Day 49

Yellow leaves persist.

So CalMag is still being administered. I first dosed them last Saturday (5 days ago) with slightly higher than recommended amounts. But the bottle and hydro peeps assured me that a dosage of about 1tbsp per gallon would be perfectly safe for a plant that has been deficient for weeks now. They also brought up that a small dose is quite similar to the mineral proportions of well water. Which got me thinking that I should be adding mineral salt amendments back to my RO water in the first place since that process removes almost all minerals in the water. Something to think about for the future I suppose.

Its getting frostier and frostier. I have to say I was a little worried about Afgooey ultimately being a GHSC product. But it has actually turned out quite well. It flew right out of the gates from the beginning. It has the smell, the structure, and hopefully in about a months time it will have the smoke. Its gone from that deep rubbery skunk to a heavy frosting of sweet citrus tones. Maybe a leftover from its Hawaiian lineage? The two girls now smell more similar than not. But C99 maintains that mango candy aroma which distinguishes the two from each other.

Trichomes are getting cloudier as a whole, with perhaps a few amber ones here and there. I think we are about 10-15 days from entering the chunk phase where the plants start to really fill out. From that point I would estimate another 2 weeks. But we will see. I will not jump the gun. These girls will be perfect.

edit: of course I didn't tell you that I did a drench tonight. Same drench [2tsp kelp, about 1tsp fish, about 1tsp molasses, + 1tsp Cal/mag] to 1000ml.

I watered with another 1000ml of straight RO after that because they want it. They want it.
 
They all look great and there getting chubby. How exciting. hehehehehe.
 
Got here a little late but glad I didn't miss the harvest, great looking scrog CC looks like you are in for some nice looking buds very soon. I hope the deficiency is getting better. You got some very nice frosty looking tops

all the best for the last weeks of your girls

Keep 'em green
:passitleft:

Hello Cindy.

WP_20151107_12_22_40_Pro.jpg


You are an oddity. And you are consuming yourself.

You are impossibly unphotogenic. The camera doesn't know where to stop.

Afgooey. She's the star of this show. Her scent is now considerably complex. Almost pungent deep mandarin musk. Its incredibly hard to pin down.

My phone wants to make me happy. I know it does. But I need to start using my camera gear rather than my phone.

I will be watering today. Straight RO water with maybe a touch of Cal/Mag. But I don't believe it matters at this point. Both plants are approaching the end and will continue to drop leaves until cut day. We are at mostly cloudy on both plants. I'm just counting days by the amber at this point.

Another 2...3 weeks? Its hard to tell. I'll just have to keep an eye on them from this point on.
 
Wow the buds have just filled out like big Baalooons. They look amazing that tall one is still stretching for the light.
Your thoughts on the Vscrog grow so far?

The Vscrog is superior IMO. That said I could probably fine tune my screens dimensions. Cindy got a bit too big to scrog with only half a screen so I don't feel this grow is a great representation of scrogging in general.

Next grow I am going to be ditching the screen and inevitably training more. I'll see which one works out better in this space; the screen or training.
 
And just as an observation...

Not all that many amber trichomes showing up yet. Afgooey definitely has more which was to be expected as an indica. Also, the big C99 branch is more amber than the rest of the plant. I also suspected that might be the case because how much more light its getting. Depending on how it goes, I may chop Afgooey and whichever Cindy branches are ready and leave the rest to finish.

Time to prep the drying box!
 
Looking good my friend!!! :peace:

Thanks buddy! I'm very excited for my next run. My seeds came in on Monday, and now I'm all giddy. :) Just waiting on some more 1 gallon geopots to come in the mail...and I should probably order some azomite like I said I was.

I just got my grow restarted. I can't tell you how good it feels. Even though I was only down for a few weeks, I felt the loss. There was something missing. Now it is back. :) :peace:
 
Yup. I may have over reacted, but I couldn't take the chance. Everything had to go and quickly for a short period of time. Now I am set up in a new location. Just one small tent with A LOT of light. A Mars 900 in a 2x2 tent. :) :peace:

Ya I feel you. Better safe than sorry. I think too many people know what I'm doing....im working out the details on how to either cut a bunch of people out of my life or manufacture a good story. I'm thinking of telling those few people that I dont grow anymore because too many people found out...and then give them a deadly stare so they know I mean them.
