Panama x big sur holyweed round 2

[oldsmoker]

this will be a second attempt at taming these last time they
grew out of my room

so far I have rooted 4 clones and moved them into net pots
with hydro clay balls, once the roots have penetrated through the pots
Ill move them into a new bucket system.

I plan to hang my lights vertical for this grow, to see if it helps with
the astonishing stretch these have

last time not even a scrog could keep them down

 

[Immigrant]

Good luck mate, I'm very interested in DWC.

 

[amoril]

now this sounds like an interesting strain. very interesting. may I ask where you acquired it, and if you know much else about it?

just seems that BSHW is not that available any longer, so it definately catches my attention. Im in love with unique sativas

 

[oldsmoker]

thanks Immigrant, this will be more of a recycling drip system then DWC
which I ran them in last time, I started 5 seeds and ended up with 5 girls
2 phenos in the same bubbler a real recipe for disaster.

Hi amoril a friend of mine used a BSHW male to pollinate some choice females of
c99, panama, nycd, smile and a few others
I believe the original male came from OT1

 

[Mist]

Damn! Were the plants in that second pic in some kind of tent? Talk about out of control, I can't even imagine what was going on in there, LOL.

 

[oldsmoker]

yes Mist it was just too much, behind all that the indica phenos were almost done.
I managed to salvage some smokable bud but the sativa phenos were taken way too early

however it gave me an idea of what to expect this time, they are worth persisting with

man, thats DEFINATELY worth persistance IMO.

to be honest, it sounds like one of the more unique combinations currently floating around.

yes it got my attention also a very pretty plant in later flowering with pink pistils
prom the Panama mum.

hey Dok welcome to the show.

still hand watering although they are ready to be flowered NOW !
Ive topped 2 and left the other 2 to see if they respond kindly to it

enough said here are a couple of pic's from today

if your having over filing issues. flip to flower before the entire screens filled, continue tying down for 2-3 weeks.

Hi cork thank's for the advice, thats exactly what I did last time
problem being they then continued stretching for the next 7 weeks
Panama is one stretchy bitch but Ill tame her yet

 

[oldsmoker]

Right after reading on me bulb packet that its made for horizontal mounting
I decided after many hours deliberation to go with the scrog again
difference being I have put them straight into flower under a 400w MH

new hydro system which is feeding 15min in every hour

 

[oldsmoker]

the plants and I am liking this new system

easy access to the res

plus Ive used this ph controller on lots of grows now and it works great
just set and forget, every time the ph rises over 6.0 the peri pump
adds a few drops of ph down

Ec is 1.2 they are on canna substra flores with a little added nitrozyme

 

[oldsmoker]

well lets see now where were we
they have just hit the scrog net so the bondage starts this weekend
still at ec 1.2 replenishing res with ec 1.4 to slowly notch up
ph is 5.9 - 6.0 RH 63% and temp 24c

the first pistils are just starting to break forth

the 2 un topped plants

and the topped ones

 

[amoril]

immaculate grow thus far, oldsmoker. I cant wait to see these ladies start flowering....I bet those leaves are thin as needles in a little bit

are some of the sticks turning red/purple, or is that just a shadow / light trick?

 

[oldsmoker]

thank's amoril there was some purple colour in the stem
but not as much as that pic displays, must have been shadow.

ec 1.2 ph 5.9

mid week update,

and overhead

E2a the middle plant is happybrother and part of another project

 

[oldsmoker]

first flowers are starting to form, Ive tried to capture
them flushing pink but its not easy with light on

 

[oldsmoker]

here she goes, I just love it when the Panama mum starts
to shine through on this one, a real visual treat

 

[doktoren]

Sooo pretty.... Looks like a nice sativa smoke there Oldie...

Could be fun to try some time...

DOk

 

[amoril]

I really like that color...it definately shows in todays pics, but not before.

Ive had some bright, vivid rosy/pink pistils before, but that subtle shade of pink with an early dose of trichomes is very attractive.
