White widow & ICE Grow

Well there has not been much change in the last week, non I can notice anyway.
One of my WW is showing a bunch of brown hairs on one cola, kind of odd I think there is a chance that cola has got banged against the wall a few times.

But yeah I have started giving 3ml of koolblooom per 1/2 gallon, one more feeding with that, and then I will up it to 5ml per 1/2 G, and then should be time to start flushing.
Rather surprised that the ice has so much more dence and large nugs then the WW I figured it would be a good yielder, but I am very worried I am going to end up with a shitty yield. Time will tell I guess.
 
Week 5 day 5
Woke up this morn and i took a walk downstairs. I must say i really like what i saw!!

The ICe is one sexy plant, shes gettin a frosty and fattt now, going to be nice show pot, and the WW is comin little better now, gettin real frosty and she is puttin some weight on.

Something odd tho, the WW gen are a 8-10 week strain, but alot of pistols are turing color, trics are still clear so whatever. Just makes me wonder.
Anywho here is the ice

I know alot of people have shitty things to say about the high from ICE but I gota say I'm the most stoked to smoke the cured ice. The smell this shit gives is like bubble gum so sweeet its crazy, i know the WW will be some great smoke and the smell is very much a fuely, strong thick smell "very common smell i gota say in the part of canada im in" This ice, i duno buds are sooo fat already and the smell just mmmm, mmmhmmm.

I have faith she will be good smoke too!!!
 
Well, as i thought. MY WW that i tryed to LSD and grow a few main colas, has not put on bud weight in like 3 weeks, shes getting frosty but the plant is allll popcorn.

ITs odd, It has the most brown pistols out of all 4plants are on the plant with the smallest buds, and the most amber tricks
Really confuses me, i used same meduim, the same nutes, same light and grew same genetics and the other 2 WW are getting phat and oh so white.
MAbye it was a bad seed, or mabye me trying to LSD fucked the plant up.

Anyone have any idea? lots of love, good food, good light. Whats its problemmmm

Sounds like an inferior pheno, nothing else.

And I guess you mean LST. I'f you tried to LSD a plant I really don't know how it will react. And I don't got enough LSD to check it out - LSD is kind of expensive.

Nice to here! I am pretty stoked to smoker.
Nice grow man, get some pretty fat tops with the hydro? the final bud shots look alot like mine are going to.
Very touchy plant, The ww would take anyyything the first 3 months she was a hog. Anyway.

Heres a few shots of that small WW, There are some harsh pointing tips on a few plants and some rank burn. The burn came on strong with my first feed of 5ml koolbloom "expected tho" and i phed my water with the last drops of ph tester, so it was prob off. New ppm pen/ph pen here very soon.

Smallllll Ww "to the left"

Yeah i do mean lst haha, My fingers like to type lsd...
Thx for the clear up :)
 
Well, Here we go again, another update.

Everything is coming, all of my plants are in diff stages.

-The one WW that is not going to yeild more then a half zip maby a zip if i am lucky has been flushed for 6 days now and is almost ready.

-The biggest WW just got her first flush yesterday and is looking nice, fuck all for yeild... who knows i gues the buds are dence as fuck so might not be too bad "pic 1,2"

-The smallest WW Has all white pistols and has the biggest buds of all the plants by far, and the dankest of all 4 plants, probly has 3 weeks left tho, wich will be 11-12 weeks.

-The ice just got her first flush too, the main cola is still givin-er, the rest of the plant has more then half red pistols and is all cloudy. Ill flush till it gets 10 or 20 percent amber and use florakleen twice and that will be that, probly 2 weeks left tho, maby more see what happends.

I pump up mine with the base nutrient (in soil its Hesi Soil Bloom), some flowering stimulator (1ml\L of ATA bloom stimulator) but the trick is to use a lot of PK (0-13-14) in the last week (up to 2ml\L. Thats a LOT!) and a lot of enzymes (I use ATA Enzymes at 2-3ml\L). I also use Supervit, but I don't think it does much at this stage as long as the plants are healthy.
It makes the buds swell up like crazy, and stress the plants quite a bit but soon they will face their destiny and won't have time to give me shit :)

If you use KoolBloom, which is 0-10-10 in the liquid formula the equivalent amount to what I use is around 10ml per gallon, which is 4 times what you use.

I add molasses with and after the flushing.


Yep, the EC is high but the buds get real fat, although the plant doesn't get healthier...

Of course I use distilled (or mineral if I can't afford distilled) water to keep the EC practical


Cheers :)

So far, I like the results. You could see my 3rd dimension in my journal and my Sweet Deep Grapefruit. Both got that treatment.

sounds like you got that dialed in, I have been told by a few people that 10ml a G is the max max for koolbloom. I feed every water too so i duno, i might up it a little on the one WW, see how she grows in the next few days. I use 10ml a G of koolbloom, my pots only take 2L tho so i half it. i might be reading your post wrong.

Anyway your buds are lookin nice man, i have been creeping on your page, just never know what to say :wave:

This next grow i am doing, im using the whole flora line of GH "Floralicious Plus,FloraBlend, Liquid KoolBloom, Grow, Bloom + diamond nectar"
Should be interesting :D :D

I also do not have a EC meter yet i ordered a few weeks ago So i dont have the control i would like over my plants, it seems to be doing alright tho i am sure they could be much fatter, and i wish they were. But yeah this next round will be a gooder, with some kush bag seeds, ice and some other randoms and the nice lineup of GH.

I gota say with the Flora line, my ph is always so stable and the plants eat the shit up, i hope next rownd with the Floralicious Plus, FloraBlend and diamond nector i will see much more fruitfull plants :)

10ml\G should be more than enough if you wish to grow the plants.
I believe 20ml\G would be good to HARVEST the plant. It would probably suffer quite a bit from root burning and such.
But I never used KoolBloom, only PK 13-14 and HESI bloom stimulator.
You could get a tester plant and up the dose up to 10ml\G and for the last week go 20ml\G and see how it goes. Thats what I would do.

I don't have much experience with GH (only used their totalgro formula which is CRAP). Good luck with them!

I don't own an EC meter either (I'll get one for my next round)- I just go to the hydro shop with all my gear and water samples and use their EC meter.
I've spent quite a few bucks there and they know I'm a good customer so they can't say no :)
Last time I've checked all kinds of ECs for 2 hours.

Talking about gear, I've used the House And Garden Shooting Powder thing and that shit is awesome if used correctly.
You should use it at week 2-3 when buds are formed to make em explode with secondary buds then again at week 5-7 when buds are STARTING to mature so they pump like hell and the new growth still have time to mature.
After the second application of the shooting powder I've pumped the plants with PK to make pump even more.

That might be an abuse of fertilizers but it sure made my 3D look pretty!

Another trick (yeh, I got plenty) is to manicure the buds 3 days before harvest (gently, with unpowdered latex gloves on to make finger hash from later on) and them give the plant no light until harvest.
They don't need light at this stage and a lot of people say (and thats what I've seen as well) that it make them rippen faster.
The leaves removal aids airflow and lets the plant compensate for the broken trichomes at the time it got left. Or something. It just seems to work better for me.

If it works or not, one thing for sure - it does no harm and doesn't give you much extra work.



Cheers :)
 
WELLL, I have been letting my one WW get ripe. And i had a look today and my top buds were 1/2 amber so i gave them the chop, this plant has been flushing for about a week, and one water with Florakleen. I am pretty happy with this plant actually it did not yield that much but the buds are pretty dank, and very frosty.
I cut a tester like 4 days ago, and the trics are so swollen and got really long actually they kinda grew up and fell over on each other so it does look like a spider web i gotta say.

Ne-who i gave the ICE and the almost rdy WW a big flush like 4 days ago, and that was a mistake, my fan leafs everywhere on the top of the plant "0n the ice" have lots of really small yellow spots and the leafs are soooo brittle. Either from me starving the plant for oxygen or this is normal for the plant i dunno, sure hope the main cola finishes up here soon so i can chop it. The WW i flushed with it is doing fine, but it is a much stronger plant then the ice.

I figure the ice and the WW should be done pretty much right at 10 weeks mabye little longer on the ICE, So a week and a half.

My small WW " i am not showing pics till its almost done" LOOKS FUCKING SICK! most frosty shit i have ever grown i gotta say, it glistens in the light like crazy. MMhmm soo white.

Here is the Cut and hanging Top to my smallest WW

give them some molasses, should make up for some iron, calcium, magnesium and a bit of P and K. (If I recall correctly)
It will also feed the microlife in your soil so they'll break the stuff in the medium faster. Or something.
If you don't have molasses you can use grape sugar or raw sugar that still has the molasses in it.
One tablespoon per gallon of water.


Could we get a closeup on those buds? Looks good!
