Very nice! They look very sativa, so theyr not even close to being done yet..I'd say about another 1 or 2 weeks. what strain is that it looks like NYC sour diesel..
I see U got about a million more CFL's than I do too lol.. hopefully I'll grow something that looks remotely close to that next time around! thanks for the inspiration!

Keep us up to date on those too. Good job man!

I agree..

The trichs were all cloudy on plant E, about 20/80 - clr/cldy on plant D, and about 25/75 clr/cldy on plant C. I still have the majority of plant C drying right now, and a bud or two from plant D curing. Im thinking wednesday might be the official *chop everything down day* since I've already started germinating 5 more seeds for the next grow and 3 of them are showing taproots already.

I'll be patient with the last 2 seeds bcuz sativa's and females usually sprout and grow slower than any other ones, so I'd be happy with either

I harvested exactly 14g's ended up with 5.9g's.
they started off weighing about 3g's each (2.85 +/- .3g)..then after they dried they ended up being like .7 or .8 a piece.
I'll probably finish up with a little over an oz - 1 1/2oz total.
But I'll go for quality over quantity any day!

Good report on how they smoked. Thanks. I wonder if anyone else using molasses had that same "disgusting" taste you experienced. Did you use molasses all the way until harvest? Also, when did you stop using nutes/ferts? Did you flush the plants at all before harvest?

**SleepyBuds** · 05-04-2007, 02:27 PM

I just started flushing my babies today, so hopefully I won't get that molasses taste. NY Sour Diesel? haha where I come from, it's almost impossible to find "good" weed. The most we pay for a quarter is 40, and we have to drive at least 2 hours to find "dank" on the regular. Just smoke that commersh brick weed with tons of seeds and stems. Got tired of paying for that bullshit, do it my own.

No prob.

i wonder the same thing..everyone says it gives it a nice taste, which isnt entirely true. Its a bitter/sweet taste at first then the aftertaste tastes like vomit.

Did you use molasses all the way until harvest?

Yeah..I think Im gonna use molasses the entire veg and only up till week 4 of flowering next grow. I'll flush it out with the rest of the nutes and hopefully the plant will still have the extra sugars needed to give me some better lookin bud.

Also, when did you stop using nutes/ferts? Did you flush the plants at all before harvest?

I havent fed these plants in soooo long lol!!!
maybe thats why the one is dying lol..j/k

I gave them a flush on 4/22...I remember that bcuz it was the first Cavs game of the playoffs and I always flush on basketball night..its the only time I have any peace. The last Nute feeding was a week before that.

Yeah I shoulda listened to mogie. he says plants only utilizes it from week 4 - week 6 so after that I shoulda stopped using it. (I think thats correct, I'll double check his post and change it later if its wrong, my bad mog, I still hang on to ur every word.)

we have that in common

I started using molasses very early in my grow. Probably about week 3 or so of vegging. I now give them every 10 days or so 2 tbs/gallon. I'm on week 5 of flowering and I'll give them another dose on Sunday. After that, one more dose and then I'll hold off. I've never flushed my girls and I'm not sure if I will either. I've just read so many mixed reports on it.

If Ur using chemical ferts I'd definitely flush soon, simply bcuz I know that when plants use chemical ferts they leave waste behind (salt) and that waste can cause nute-lockout if you dont rid your soil of it. I know that first hand. If Ur growing organically its not necessary.

did U notice any major advantages to using molasses during vegetative growth??? I dunno if it would be a waste or not to use it that early, so I'd like to hear what your feelings are on that.

Day 75 / Flowering 54

I did quite a few changes today. First off I pulled plant C completely, she was just dying and dying, no new growth like the other 2 and her buds were slowly wilting away. (

she died off early, was she more indica and the other 2 more sativa? Did she have bad gene's? was she from a hermie plant? did she have a disease? was it bcuz it was 2 plants in 1 pot and the stronger plant killed off the weaker?

Too many possibilities and I have a lot more bagseed growing to do, so I killed it and decided not to waste any more time worrying.

)

I also did a little "Bonsai" to the rootballs on plant D and plant E. I wanted to make them fit into the smaller pots so I could make some room for my 5 (**maybe 6**) new babies [so far 4/5 of them are buried and have at least 1/2 inch taproots and still growing, one seed hasnt done anything in a while so I threw another seed into the paper towel and its possible that I will have 6/6 seeds germinate..

]

I'm thinking I will re-veg these plants in the same room with the babies starting their vegetative growth, and flower both at the same time. That way if I need to I can just use plant D & E as mothers and cut a few clones from them. Chances are they will continue to flower since they are so far into flowerin and I'll end up killing them and leaveing the extra space to my babies.

This is a comparison shot of plant C's buds (in the foreground) and plant D's buds (in the back)

my next grow will be semi-hydro since I will not be using soil AT ALL..Im growing in a peatmoss/perlite-50/50- soil-less mixture..hopefully they will grow faster than in soil.
