Perpetual is great. I know your excitement for new genetics as I too have only had wappa That wasn't some random awful bagseed. Harvested those two bag seed plants...just very low quality kind of plants.

Have this in the oven though at 2weeks of flower. Added the 70 hps.

If she comes close to the quality of your plants I will be a happy camper!

Yap my bagseeds too were disastrous :-( killed them both...

btw I love the 70 hps - great light! paired with the plls should be kickass in the cab!! :dance013:

EDIT 12th june: 14.0g was last wappas' weight. Batteries ran out on my scale, so a friend came over - didn't take a picture.

EDIT: so last plant you see ^^ was 14.0g :) looked more, but that's what it is.

Critical Kush harvested at 57 days flo.
Could have been two-three days more, but... I don't have space, nor something to smoke... ^.^
(Already tasted a bud from last week - potent, hashy stuff this CK...)

picture.php


Ck is 32 cm (1 foot) she's the smallest of the 8 remaining (all harvesting end of june - end of july)

***
Tent is really full now:
Only 150W - additional CFL is off due to temps (30°max now - I'd really have 1°C off rather than 800 lumens more with the 13W).
Amazing bang for the buck the 150W... :O even though I've got monstrous airflow to keep up with it.

A
nyways, I'll do my homework soon;
y'all know by now I've been focused on light/canopy placement for now, being a lil' more than a noob regarding soil, nutes, genetics, etc... I'll do my homework in other compartments soon, or soon enough :) People here on IC and their commitment to this hobby are my spin, theat's for sure :) !

I'm quite curious about how this wappa will turn out.
Bushy plant, instead of the usual monocola one.

Yep I am a big fan of the ICMag vert section too - great inspiration indeed! I particularly love how the techniques used by the "Big guys" have been adapted by the "Micro guys".

Viva la 150w! :)

update on
Durga Mata, finally, 6 weeks flowering.
picture.php

picture.php

*she's tall, 45cm, but first 10cm there are no buds. she's really packed in the middle, just there, this pic doesn't cover that.
Varnish/solvent smell turned to catpiss. Plants' still white predominantly, even though pistil are turning warmer colors.

***
Critical Kush, still drying. 57d flo. not the best, but first ck! I slipped on nutes with her - Also I didn't like the jar pot :-| less airy maybe?

EDIT - I don't want to make another post just for this:

CK here is 12.61g ^^ and she has a very mild high - I've done something wrong for sure ahah... T_T

From now on until the end of the month it's super crowded with 8 plants.
One's gotta choose wether he prefers better light coverage/airflow, or this mess: ^.^
picture.php

*I'm using the plastic fruit box and a pot to arrange plants in a "W" pattern. otherwise they don't fit.

picture.php


picture.php

*hps is pretty submerged. Tops above it are not getting that much light.
Temps are 30.5 - 32 °C MAX these days. RH 50%.

***
Some clones are ready, mostly for friends, for august.

here are the three moms -
Wappa is still very pleasant plant. CK and DM need serious sampling at the end of the month to see which to keep along with wappa;

I hope to harvest one of each genetics - better than the 12.6g CK just dried(she was harvested @ 7+ weeks; I'm going for 8, 8+ this time).

Also, in july or sept. a Laughing Buddha bean is coming :) in exchange for a Durga Mata bean.

*6-7" moms drink a lot of veggie ferts. But I'm not feeding them that much instead, I should up the dosage because they're always pale.

Hi mate :) First of all I'd like to congratulate on you watering pump design, I'd love something like that too, since I hand water 8 pots DAILY... :-D

now for the questions:
1-wappa is 9 months, other two are about 4 months old
2-pots are 12cm (CD/DVD size) width and height approximately. 1 liter+ capacity.
3-light is a single 23W 6500K philips tornado, 1500lm circa. They're very slow as a result. And it's not a negative aspect all the time, when I don't need clones.
4-I give moms half strength veg nutes, every two waterings. They need watering once/twice a week max.
5-Good call on this one... that kind of mainteinance is due, soon :) I just pruned the wappa once before christmas - other two never were. I'm going to cover that before summer (with pics) I just plan to wait them to be dry, pull them from their pots and cut the rootball until there's 2"-5cm cube left. Then put in fresh soil. (So twice a year, I'd say, is nice, even though I think they could wait more)

UPDATE :)

- Durga Mata mom has gone WTF (she's a clone from the DM I'm harvesting this sunday btw) with single leaf and many weird little shoots, growing along the main stem.
She's in nitro over too - kinda slipped... she probably got too much of the other (and older) moms who need tons of veggie instead.
picture.php

^^ 6 clones (3Wappa, 3CK seems to be settling)

***
It's also last time I see of the system full - if switching to smaller, PVC cab hopefully

^^thanks dude!

CK 57 days

*EDIT: she's got many new thric-shoots, but most are close to harvest

And a CK nug going up in smoke :)
(this is from the last one harvested)

nice smoke this ck - getting smoother by the day; no couchlock as she was harvested soon.

both new genetics this year are quite nice - forgiving, fast, kind enough to be short and bushy...

DM harvested @ 59 days - thrics look right, although plant hasn't got ridden of N as much as I would like.
she's quite dank, smelling varnish/solvent with a hint of catpiss, how romantic... X-D I like her "urban/fuel" stench, plus I'm so curious if she's a keeper or not.

* 7 plants allow now for an easier fit - CK same age is still inside, both because she was behind this one + I want to try it flowered longer.
