looking nice man! i love the TW smell and high, your in for quite a treat when those ladies are done. i had a TWxBK that was very TW pheno and that bitch reeked! i bet those will too! i think i may have lost her in the move, very sad day. i have 3 unknown moms(just rooted, taken out of a e-z-cloner) that i need to grow out to see what i still have out of the 3 pheno's i had. :fsu: they are still too small to tell now.

Here are some updated pictures of the plants, they are now 32 days into flowering and have started to produce buds more rapidly. This past week has been really good to the plants they are now starting to show some white crystals on the leaves and they are also now using nutrient solution somewhat quickly. Had a security scare the other day with them, but all turned out well. All in all another good week in my opinion, the plants seem to be doing well but of course I am still pretty new to all this.

those leaves on that Trainwreck are huge.
Do you just have buckets with airstones in them? No res and recirculating system?
If so, then I've got to do this dwc.

Hazy - I am running four individual DWC buckets with one 4" air stone in each. I have 2 80 Gallon air pumps with two outlets so one pump takes care of two buckets. They are not recirculating but I do change the nute solution/H2O every week as needed. There is no reservoir and I actually like that as it lets me control each plant individually. But next crop I will modify the buckets to have individual drain valves and a common rail water fill system so I do not have to remove the plants from the buckets each week as this is getting harder as the plants get bigger. If you decide to go DWC good luck and of course good luck with any growing you got going on.

Well time to update. Another week has gone by this is now 39 days into flowering. Forgot to mention that about two weeks ago I started using some KoolBloom, I am now using it at a rate of 10ml/gal in each of the buckets. The flowers are starting to increase in size somewhat I am still waiting for them to hopefully start explosive growth. There is although alot of resin buildup starting to begin on the stems and the inner leaves. All in all another good week, i think.

Hey Shantyman, Yes I have checked for hermies and I lucked out not a single one of them has hermed yet, hopefully they wont do it at all. Also thanks for the comment about their size, I was starting to get concerned that they were not putting on enough weight. Good luck with anything you got going.

Hey Zombi3girl, I as well hope your trainwreck grows well, good luck and thanks for checking out mine.

Well here I am at day 47 into flower. I for some reason seem to think the growth has been delayed by something so I think I will have to flower for longer than last expected, this is the middle of the seventh week of flowering and they just don't seem like they are getting big yet. I am wondering if they will bulk up if I switch my nutrients to a ripening formula instead of continuing with the aggressive bloom I am using this week, but I will continue with the aggressive bloom until saturday morning unless someone here can tell me to do otherwise. All in all though they seem to all be doing fine they are using a healthy amount of nutrient/water and they are all perked up and producing plenty of resin, they are also starting to produce an amazing lemon/pine smell. Buds are getting larger, just not quickly, and they are starting to form more like the colas I have seen on this forum in the past.

You're doing a remarkable job b-420. That lemon/pine smell you described...good stuff! I love the smell of T-Dub.
Are you sure you didn't have a timer error?? light leaks??? Heat stress??? Gotta be environmental 'cause they look well ferted.

You're reporting frost at day 32...that's a bit late for Trainwreck
Nice pics, you got your feeding dialed in, they look good :respect:
Thanks for sharing your grow with us, and good luck the rest of the way

BlueBottle - Thanks for checking them out, I will update the pics again later today as I will be changing to ripening nutes today.

-VT- Thanks for stopping by and thanks for the kind words. There were no timer errors or light leaks but heat stress could be one of the problems. The room itself was sitting at 78* in the "day" but that was just the room and not necessarily what the temp was directly under the plants. I will post a picture later that shows the heat stressed cola, it was only one of them but apparently it has affected them. I thought that the frost appearing at 32 days was a little slow too, but oh well we will chock the mistakes from this grow up to learning. Here is the picture of the heat stressed leaves that are on the one cola:

Alright here we are at day 52 a little behind behind I think but we'll see. This morning the nutes were switched from the aggressive bloom schedule to the ripen schedule which of 10ml Micro, 30ml Bloom, and 40ml KoolBloom per bucket. I hope to run this schedule for another week most likely though I will run it until sunday 5/4. Go through another week of a flush and then harvest but we'll see how that goes. Buds this week have increased in size somewhat more than before and the resin output has increased alot. Oddly enough one of our smaller plants has become the largest producer of resin. As shown in my last post the largest plant has suffered a small amount of heat stress I think that has been all cleared up now though. The humidity rose from about 45% to 72% when I sealed the room to add in a carbon scrubber I have managed to bring it down to 59% with the addition of a larger intake fan but I am trying to get ahold of a dehumidifier to to bring it down to near 40% as I hear this is the best to avoid mold and increase resin output. Alright now for the pictures of this week:

Where do you all get the genetics for that? I smoked some once and would consider trying to grow it. Hows the yeild? G/Sq Meter if anyone knows? Also, whats the flowering time?

Day 55 now, and something happened that caught me off guard, first time at least I am not sure if this usually happens or not. But overnight by buds became noticeably more crystal covered and they have started producing a large quantity of new white hairs. So I took more pictures of them today because of this so I thought I would post some more of them here.

You know I am not really sure what trainwreck is supposed to look like but I received my seeds from Greenhouse Seeds and they were labeled GHS Trainwreck. I sure hope that this is what they really are.
