Athletic prowess.

Way to simple. But defintely desirable. I'm hesitant to start another journal because of the hour or longer it can take to upload and update. I just don't have the time I used to.

Think outside the box. How can you modify your posting style to either focus on group shots or on individual story lines? Consolidate the photographic message in a new way. Your video journal has turned out to be the perfect style for you, though. Why not just stick with that one? Limit the photo downloads from now on until your schedule opens up. Yeah, I heard the absurdity of that statement. Like your schedule will ever be that open again. LOL!

Ain't life grand? MUAH!!!

Life is wonderful, Susan!

I love the video journal but its not at the heart of 420. 420 is about the journaling and the people you meet along the way. I feel a part of that is missing with the videos.

I don't really know where I'm going with this. But 420 is where my heart is, not YouTube. Perhaps 420 could look at allowing me to post my videos here without uploading to YouTube? Just a bit to ponder.

I'ts worth exploring Pigeons. ...... Aww, one more won't hurt.

Hey guys, what's going on here, in your opinion?

In my opinion this plant is beginning to flower. This specimen is living under 20 hours of light. Can someone explain to me how this plant can be flowering? This is the CBD Critical Cure, at day 42. Day 42 guys. WTH???

Any ideas, thoughts, observations? I'm stumped.

Sue,
Re WTH,

From the first strain review I found. "an indica-dominant strain that's said to combine Critical Kush with a ruderalis variety". (The links may go away.)

It should act like a little like an auto if you think about it. The CBD is from the ruderalis.

You may want get some input on the wisdom of removing them.

I will be watching.

Best,
canyon

Anthocyanin is one cause of purple plants. Cool night temps is another.

I don't think I want to remove them Canyon. It's a shock that she'd go into bloom so unexpectedly. This is my first go round with CBD Critical Cure, so lesson learned. Top her earlier.

Now I'm thinking let her proceed. If she's going to bloom under 20/4 just let her do so until it's time to flip the Critical Mass. Then throw them all under 12/12.

Was not expecting this.

 

[Pigeons420]

Am I missing something? I don't see anything beginning to flower?

Edit::

In true fashion I went back and looked harder after commenting. I suspect some pre-flowers my Love. It's a beautiful sign, especially if you plant regular seeds

 

[SweetSue]

Thank you Pigeons. Not something I noticed before flipping. This is common with photos? This early in? I'm figuring about another month in veg. See? Just a noob myself. Lol!

 

[Pigeons420]

Yea quite common. I have preflowers on just about all my veg girls right now. I typically start looking for them around week 4-5 of veg to see if there male or female. But some don't pre flower at all and their still female.

We're all noobs with little bits of skips in everything.

 

[SweetSue]

Whew!!! Panicked a bit there. Hahaha!

 

[Noob4x4grow]

Did somebody say noob?

 

[SweetSue]

It was like a homing beacon.

 

[Heirloom]

LOL, I was looking and looking...thinking I couldn't spot flowering anymore. You had me going.

 

[Radogast]

Cool! I'm going to have to try your tea recipe. Lately I've been drinking green tea with ground cinnamon and cardamon added. I first had this at an Indian restaurant recently and it has grown on me wildly. But yours is sounding great, too.

I like your morning tea ceremony as well. Good tea, reading, nutrition and bud! You've got the bases covered!

I make tea by the gallon out of cinnamon stickers, black pepper corns,cliced frsh ginger root, cardamon pods, and 2 cloves. 2 black tea bags are optional.


... but Chai Tea is fun for caffeine drinkers. The tea bags are quite inexpensive at Indian markets.

Daily Update: Day 40 & 42

Med GOM 1.0 keeps getting thicker. It's gonna be hard to get enough out of this one to justify that pot, so in future I'll use a smaller pot for this strain. That reminds me, I need to add more soil to her pot with the next drench. When I removed her from the crate it created more open space around the edges. Maybe I'll do that right after I post this instead of waiting.

She reminds me of the Original Bubblegum. Only prettier.

Med GOM 1.0 is stacked !

I do make it challenging sometimes, don't I? I've been growing all this time, but I've only grown two photo plants that weren't raised under lighting that promoted auto behavior, and neither one presented like this. It was totally new to me. I wasn't expecting to see anything until after I flipped. So, this isn't something every plant does before flip? Still learning as I go.

 

[Radogast]

I don't even see pre-flowers here - just budding stalks.

 

[Radogast]

Alternating nodes and pre-flowers can occur weeks and months before the flip.

I think of pre-flowers as a secondary sex characteristic, like armpit hair.

Armpit hair doesn't mean the girls are actively soliciting sex yet, just that they are ready when the right light hits them
