cheers mcone (BTW- what clan is McOne?....i only ask because I'm a jock)- my last set went for 9 weeks, want to see if leaving it longer makes any difference.

Yesterday morning I went in to my grow cupboard to discover mildew on 2 of my plants leaves - the OG Kush (thought it was mould, I guess mildew is some form of mould.)

Anyway, rushed off to the garden centre and came across Silinal by ECOstyle. You mix like 1.5ml of the concentrated gloop with a litre water...then spray on the offending plants. Checked this morning and it certainly seems to have helped.

I also bought a moisture cleaner. basically a small plastic box with a bag of salt granuals in it (my humidity was up over 70.) I think this is down to the crap wet weather coming in and me not turning my ventilator up enough. Plus my circulating fan died of death last week....the 2nd in 4 months!!! Lesson learned: Keep all the elements of your grow room up to scratch.

Half way through week 6, last couple of feeds over the next week. Will post more pics at the weekend, hopefully will have got rid of the mildew.

Actually, it isn't a surname, it is an alias, M.C. One. Thanks for the info my man.

So its Friday and the weather is completely kack. Even if I don't go out for a drink I always tend to go out somewhere on a Friday. I work from home and today has been the first cold day in the house. I even gave in at the end of the day and turned the heating on!!

Anyway, as you can see, looks like rain or something (hope so as I am running out of RW) Not really had enough to give the plants but have been spraying them with rain water occassionally, which in hinesight I think gave them the bloody mildew, which I am still treating them with Silinal - which has taken away most of it, but I must have missed some bits. So tonight I took all the offending plants out and inspected thoroughly. It also gave me the chance to take a few snaps after I had skinned up a joint and messed around a bit.

pics - weed maths - a comparison. I beleive the Headband is a cross of Sour D and OG Kush - you can certainly taste both - and funnily enough at different times, and in my first grow there was some diff smelly buds out of the various hb seeds. anyway - first two bits of weed are purchased, East Coast Sour diesel, and OG Kush, then the Headband is from my last grow and also the OGK kush home grown - from my last grow.

One of the LST - The Three Little Birds,

the branch i sup cropped has weed growing at all sorts of strange angles. will post more pics but it takes so long to upload. back in a bit.....

looks bomb bro, i recommend a dehumidifier if your rh is over 50 in the last weeks. looks great but its coco so dont flush till the very last week!

I have had these clones on the go since the start of Sept - believe it or not - they basically all got leaf lice - which i also had on my main plants - grrr. Anyway, that seems to have been eradicated, although some of the leaves have been left looking a bit buggered - So the clones have been revived over the last month and the growth just recently kicked in. 1 of the HB i have removed (looks like it will die), and the OG kush is dead (I only had one clone - was trying to keep the no. of plants down) I do still have some beans though.

i also have the pack of Dame Blanch which i may grow...mmmn. Has anyone ever grown it?

I have also uploaded some more shots of the big girls buddies.

Enjoy the weekend

cheers for that Mr Bitti, i flushed 2 weeks in previous and was thinking of letting it run longer with the nutes (I always seem to have loads left.)

will look into the dehumidifier (although the little Bison salt capsual box - whatever it is - seems to have brought it down to around 50) but I think it will be tough over the winter.

I believe so, although I have read about back crosses, etc, i stumbled across some seeds in a bag from a coffeeshop...and these are clones of clones from the decent mammas, so the genetics seem to have settle down (first batch got a wack of seeds) Will check out your own blend, sounds funky
