This strong ppm thang is new to me as well. I am using DM gold and I have never ran my nutes higher than 950 ppm be for trying this stuff. I think in my case its the nutes. The ones in the tray didnt seem to like it much over 1K ppm. On the other hand the plants in the UC have seen weeks of 1300+ ppm and havent shown one little tiny bit of tip burn. Its gotta be the nutes. Well we shall see. Im thinking of running my 8xl and a 4xl side by side with DM gold vs ? may be I'll try advanced.
All in all your plants look to be the "SHIT" DG just keep it up.
Good luck

another quick newb question..what do yall usually do with your plant tops? i tried making clones out of them but they seem to go full retard on me. somethin about lower branches having more strengh to form clones....feels like a waste to throw that top branch off though.


you shouldn't realy top your plants now unless your vegging them much longer and up size their pots.i start toping around the 4 set of new growth and pinch the shoots right off and i wait for more new branches and do it again and again till i like the shape of the plant.i have no threads on this but theres many here just have to search.anyother questions hit me up and i'll gladly help you

phosphoload.... but i don't use the stuff :p

Man this is the second or third time I've come across a reference to this stuff. Phosphoload, Gravity, any other paclobutrazol solution. Any advice on using this? I'm thinking on using that in a foliar spray during the second or third week of bloom to slow the HPS stretch but I haven't come across two people on the entire Net that have the same thing to say about it one way or another.

If I'm threadjacking here I can take it elsewhere, just saw the word and thought I'd chime in.

^i hear that the phospholoads make your buds nice and dense..but its a trade off of making your buds more chemmy.

Phospholoads just adds a shit ton of phosphorous to the plants. It's best used in the final weeks of flowering. If not flushed properly it will leave a "chemmy" taste. But all bloom boosters are just super high P/K additives. IMO, you are not doing any good without adding high levels of potassium (K). It's best to use a complete bloom booster like Kool Bloom, Budswel, Hydroplex, or the likes of.

your right about adding higher levels of potassium.well i use Big Bug and Carboload as a sweetner and Overdrive before flushing

Well if you are flying after 30days I can only imagine what that stuff will do at 70days. The fact that PKs nugs don't shrink as much as other strains is how it yields so well even though the top buds aren't as large in growth as other strains. Both you and BG have been holding out on pix over the last week and I am getting itchy ;)

Did you say that was just one small branch at 30days and it yielded 1/2oz! Man you got 1lb plants no problem!

Both are great products. I've been using the Botinicare Sweet-Carbo Raw after using Sugar Daddy for years. So far I'm liking it. There were major increases in color and flavor.

You're looking quite spectacular for only 30 days. PK is still one of my favorites. If I wasn't stuck back on the east coast I woud still be running it.

Thanks for the good infoz, I'll keep that in mind when flowering. Any word on the usefulness of phospholoads as a foliar spray to halt vertical stretch?

I'm not sure. Haven't really used the product. I have used Humbolt's Bushmaster as a foliar spray with Dutch Master's Saturator. I would say it stopped stretch and boosted the number of budsites I had.

i can see what you mean about the weight on bud size now its clear that even small nugs stay solid after drying.this was two small branches from the bottom i thought there was nothing on them realy nothing, was going to toss them but i didnt thinking that they was going to shrink to nothing i thought 2 grams after dry at most i just wanted to see and it shocked the hell out of me bro gave some to a friend and they said the shit is good and i was like what the hell is going on i also had sampled the SSH and they said the PK is the shit that if i had more.this is amazing at such an early stage with no flush and its mind blowing,still scatching my head on this one just dont get it
