Was about to send out a search party for ya buddy . Always curious how things are going in that cab of yours . Looks like you may have some calcium lockout going on. Check your soil ph (slurry method). If that is in line (6.0-6.5) then lower the amount of K you are feeding them .

I am busy, but never to busy to log in icmag and look around
the c99 have show the same deficency every time starting after transpalant, different soils, go figure. Is true that i have been feeding less then usual, but the soil get it all. My teory is that the roots needs a couple of days to adapt and grow, while i am watering in the middle of the container to promote root growth and the plants use the stored energy in the lover leaves to get there. I am considering flipping to 12/12 for 2 reason, some have started trowing new leaves but the rest looks confused and shows pistils as in flower, i guess i moved those to late . They are about 6 inches and to the top is 16 inches, they should stretch1,5 to 2 times , is time to flip anyway. I sampled sam's haze pheno , i went for a walk with my dog and after 5 minutes i started running
very energetic up high, you feel happy, everything is just great. Take care buddy
Peace S

Ciao D, i flipped the lady's to 12/12 3 days ago, they are full of resin already, must be because reversed to 24/0 from 12/12 from seed, they formed flowers but didn't stretch , hopefully they will stretch as usual, will soon find out if i fucked up again, i have no idea.

Wsup sour, is all about dialin in the lady's, vertical is the most effective way for cfl users,mine are max 4 inches from the plants all the time, working great but i need taller plant , 16 inches of space.

Ya know the great thing about this hobby is even when ya fuck up, you learn something and there's usually still a bonus at the end . Plants are looking healthy and frosted up, nothing wrong with that my friend .

pineapple pheno

End of second week of 12/12. Plants are doing fine, feeding only water with alg a mix and bioheaven.

 

[Mister_D]

They look beautiful man . Don't be afraid to toss a light dose of bloom (6-9ml per us gal.) in here and there. The plants will tell you when they've had enough. I'd start with once or twice a week, and just go from there. All part of dialing in your soil mix , then it becomes rinse and repeat.

 

[rootidec]

just dropping by... that's really clean and tidy, interesting project!

progetto molto bello sgapetti - ho visto tutte le tue grow

Yes my friend, looks like i have solved the sub problem now, I have used the bloom formula ( with very little N ) 4 time, in case they wanted a little boost ) from today back to water as they seems happy anyway, lets look at the resin:

Macro pineapple pheno rigth, i had to do a couple of seed from this one as well, massive top full of resin.

Macro pineapple pheno left

Macro mix pheno , the only one that looks like the regular c99bx1

The cab

The bushy pineapple pheno ,The ix2 project, time will tell.

Happy with sub change, i just added water except for 4 times when i used the bloom formula with very little N. Fatter flowers than last time at same maturation stage, thanks to the composted manure. Last thing to dial in is the genetic now,i would like taller plants and i am going for some F1 seeds this time, Sam the skunkman haze pheno X C99bx1 male sativa pheno, i need some hybrid vigor i guess.
Peace S

 

[Mister_D]

Bud are looking nice and solid my friend. I'm proud to see you are feeding based on the plants reaction also, that's a hallmark of a good grower. Dialage comes with runs under your belt and you are making great strides . Something with a bit more stretch or increase in veg times will get the taller plants you desire. Would love to see what comes out of the skunkman x c99 cross
