600W Vert Donut [Kali Mist & White Russian]

Haha yeh, been a tad slack updating!

Everything is coming along very nicely, although bud growth is at a slow steady pace due to the Kali Mist being a full sativa, and the White Russian clones that I have are sativa leaning. Keep getting tempted to bump the feed concentration up, but they seem fine with 550ppm (.5 scale) which is very low in my books!

I skipped a watering yesterday, just to see how the girls would respond. Walked in this morning and all 6 girls had drunk their 4 gallon pots bone dry! So I won't be missing any more waterings lol, might step it up to 2x watering per day. I can tell the Kali Mist is ultra sensitive to high nutrient levels, already seeing some tip burn from my little dry spell.

It's tough taking a picture in the room, I have to squeeze right into the wall to be able to take a shot lol. The girls look really tiny in the pics taken from the room, so I dragged the closest Kali girl out for a cone and photo shoot again ;)

I would have loved to get some better pics of the white russians, but they are too friggen wide to fit through a door way and I have to fight through the stretchy sativa jungle to get at them haha.

Plenty of trich's are popping up on the sugar leaves as of a few days ago, and the smell is getting really pungent, not exactly nice smelling though....Don't think I ever like the smell of flowering plants untill the last couple of weeks.

So now the plan is to very slowly cut back the nitrogen over the next 3 weeks, giving them extra magnesium sulfate as needed. I will flush with pure water for the last 10 days, and around 14 days before that I will stop feeding all traces of micro nutrients. I want the taste as pure as can be after smoking dirt tasting weed mostly for the past 3 months!

Cheers my man!

I was told to expect 3x stretch in flower, but I think because of the vertical bulbs they are going to only stretch a tad over 2x.

The pistols have been showing over the bud sites for a while, and now I'm starting to see the calyx's growing, which I thought was fairly early on for a supposed 90% sativa.

Here's hoping for some fat, mind-bending buds! :canabis:

Photo Time!

Photo Time!

Hey everyone, hope all is well!

Just thought I would do a photo update to show you all how the girls are progressing. My apologies for the horrendous picture quality in this journal I hope they at least paint a picture of whats going on!

I tried my hardest to take better pics this time, the White Russians are very clearly powering ahead of the Kali Mist now that they are building bud mass. Seems the Kali Mist are still very slowly stretching at the bud sites, going to be a long ride lol. Just as a side note, if you don't want a high odor strain, don't get White Russian!

The girls are now almost 4 weeks into 12/12, hope you enjoy!!!!

Fourth Pic: White russian higher budsites, camera doesn't do them justice at all sadly....

Fifth Pic: The Kali Mist that's shaping out to be my favorite, very sloooow, but steady growth. Has Many large lower budsites also, just cant get them all in the frame.

Once I get a better camera I must take some pics of the thrichs, especially on the White Russian's at the moment. Ill attempt to take one with my dodgy camera soon....

Take care guys!
 
Sweet as man. Coming along real nice...looks delightful. Wish I could smell it there.

And yea I'd love to see some nice clear shots of those forming buds.

Right on.

Thanks a heap for the encouragement guys :tiphat:

Because of my location and lack of friends in this hobby, I don't get to for the most part see anyone's plants other than my own. So its very helpful to get some feedback going on, other than my girlfriend's whom has gone into paranoia mode lately, and only has bad things to say about my little smelly jungle :dunno:

She has no problems smoking the finished product lol, funny that....
At least I'm still "allowed" a small grow tent to flower one midget plant in, can't say I'm impressed....at all!

Just in case anyone wanted to know, in the above pics the 7th pic down shows a close up of a Kali Mist branch and most of the other more bulky looking bud shots are from the White Russian's.

Both strains have a fair while to go yet, but the Russian's are bulking up much quicker than the Kali Mist's. I'm thinking of harvesting it all around the same time, so the Russian's are slightly overdone when the Kali's are just ready. That way I can make use of the Russian just before bed and the Kali for daytime/socializing :)

7 more weeks mate......God that seems like a bloody long time when I think about it.

I'm more than slightly interested to see what the Russian will do with 7 more weeks, think this is going to be a great grow to finish up with for a little while ;) The Russians smell STRONGLY of skunk/lemon/coffee beans at the moment, which is reminiscent of what the final product turns out like.

The Kali Mists are still looking ratty, with sparse buds not quite joining up all the way down the branches. But with such a large flowering time, they have more than enough time to put on some impressive weight I would say. I've seen and smoked this Kali Mist pheno, and I know that the Calyx swell up abnormally big, gives the bud a look that I really like!

I might try take a trich shot tonight with my better, but still dodgy camera through a magnifying glass. The buds on the Kali's might be small, but so so frosty!

Best I could do with my cheap-o camera sorry guys....I'll use something better as they get more developed. This is a random bud from one of the Kali Mist's, the camera wouldn't focus any closer to the bud sadly.......looks beautiful in person though :)

Hope someone out there likes her :tiphat:
