yeah, ways to go, 4 weeks is my guess
that seems to be the 'zone' for PPP from other grow logs

thanks immaculate, every grow is an adventure
just peeked at your log, sounds like you'll be riding the grow a bit longer, sounds right to me, nothing like a proper fat lady

definitely a different strain than the NL grows i learned on
you can almost hear the sucking sound from the lower fan leaves
but it still 'looks right', i don't think i've under fed, but don't know for sure
a few other growers have commented this is not a heavy feeding strain
now to the bud, it's beginning to pack on some heft upstairs
and is sticky as hell, when i gently rearranged a few branches, i almost got hash

so 6 weeks of flower has been reached, probably 2-3 weeks to go
so time to review the results i'm seeing
1st thing is this was an 'interesting' strain to lst, it's a very naturally compact strain
the main cola bud was trained to go horizontal, and didn't quite reach the chamber side
that's not a classic lst where you have a ring of stem and bud
that said, it is really starting to pack the bud on, bulking very nicely
the 2nd pic shows the side view, some of best bud is hidden by fan leaves
and the odor, best stealth odor strain i've had so far hands down, hardly any
until you rub it, then you get some nice smell, skunk and mint is the best way to describe it
the 1 oz looks better at this point, i was worried for a while

6 1/2 weeks of flower, or there abouts
the 'optimal' time for this strain is supposed to be 9 weeks
or so i read, but taking it with a grain of salt
any given pheno may vary a bit, or quite a bit
the fans leaves are really being gobbled up
maybe a week or a week and a half, they should be pretty much gone
so ripening with just bud for a week or so? i think i've seen it done
pics are good(for my cheap camera), insightful comments, or any comments welcome

well she looks dank eatherway. cant wate to here the toke reoprt.:)

CB.

me either, i'm ready for the product

7 weeks of flower, mighty interesting picture
the buds are big, balls of white, lot of 'cotton' in there
white strain so no big surprise
but trying to sense the ripeness is quite different from the 'non white' strains
just looks different, so scope time is just around the corner

^^^ many thanks
i swing between wild optimism and 'it's going ok'
probably somewhere in between, i do need 1 full dry oz
a reveg would be nice too, really not sure how that's going to work out on this plant

Looks good, not much longer now

you nailed it pretty close here fuzz420, just had big ripening sign


so my 1st white strain and my 1st nirvana seed
not bad, good bud, but the fan leaves did shut down pretty quick
i know fans are supposed to yellow eventually, but this was a bit extreme
the feeding strategy may change next time for this pheno
assuming i can get it to reveg, no harm in trying
and the exciting news, the pistils started turning like a bat out of hell
changed over night, became slightly darker and dried up
i see what they say about the white strains with pistils staying white
they aren't completely white, but much different from other strains

my plan was 10 days, right at 9 weeks<br>
but i haven't done my tric check yet, probably do that in a few days<br>
but it's the stretch run, breathing a little easier

good luck on the reveg, i'd think if they are from clones, you should be good
i'm not sure what's going to be left on this plant to reveg

this is a funny PPP pheno, i can't find another PPP grow log like it
kind of looks like a tiny pine tree hit by blight
the pine cones are big, but the lower branches are bare
but that hasn't stopped the bud ripening, at 8 weeks of 12/12
they're still swelling, and growing, can't argue with that
so my plan was 9 weeks, looks about right, but got to check those trics

tric check

tric check

trichomes, trichomes, it's time to check the trichomes
well, that's as poetic as i get, so on to what i'm seeing
it's pretty wild stuff, pic looks like some kind of beast with tentacles
super frost, hats off to nirvana on this strain
i was worried it might be getting away from me, but not a problem
clear and more clear, a few maybe starting to amber a touch
so there is time, another week? that was my plan, we'll see how it ends
