Hey folks, here is a grow report for next generation seeds avalon. I got these seeds about three years ago and have been surfing the net for a while trying to find a grow report for avalon and have found very little information. I decided to post my own grow report so other people can use it as reference.
Out of ten seeds this is the only keeper. The other seeds were either male, mutant, grew poorly, or didn't sprout. So far this plant is worth the other nine duds.
Here is the mother plant:
Avalon grows with minimal branching giving one main spearlike cola. During veg this plant has a very citrusy smell when rubbed and VERY skunky odour overall. An ozone generator is doing the job so far.
The mother plant was vegged for one and a half months and then clones were taken. The clones were rooted using regular water cloning. Just dip the cuttings into a cup or shot glass with water and make sure it doesn't dry out. After about 8-9 days roots show and you are ok to plant:
The key to water cloning is low light (light seems to kill/slow down newly forming roots:
Here are clones after about nine days, notice the half inch roots. THey are safe for transplanting at this stage but i let them go till the root has side roots (branching). I find plants lag less after transplanting when they have at least two inch long roots:
After transplanting the clones were vegged for about two weeks and then were put on 12/12. I don't have any pictures for the first two weeks flowering but here is a pic at day 18:
Here is day 20:
I've had to apply ferts at 1/4 strength to correct slight nitrogen deficiencies. The yellowing dissapears soon after fert application.
They are being grown in regular potting soil (4/5) and organic black earth (1/5) with about a cup full of dolomite lime- this step is key since i grow in a pretty hot grow room. Nutes are pro blend veg, big bud, organa add, and earth juice microblast- all added at 1/4 strength where appropriate.
ANy comments advice or suggestions are welcome!!! I would especially like to know what this plants' smoke is like. I haven't found that info online.
It'll be a long three weeks till harvest and i'm out of money and bud!! Son of a ....
