like I said... They did really well with it, but it was an extremely small dose. I was planning on feeding with every other watering anyway... Do you guys recommend that I stop? And go back to straight water? Upto, I thought you said that since bigbloom was so weak that in small doses like I used it would be okay as early as day 7... So I did exactly that... Maybe I misenterpreted you... Somehow I fucked up my day count... Stuff sprouted and I waited a few days to call it day 1 don't know why I did that... It was stupid.

anyway I'm all ears, and completely open to feedback.

like I said though... They did really well with the feeding and I feel like I can see a noticeable difference already.

actually I think the PJs have a couple phenos.. one that is not purple at all..
there is actually a green one that can happen, and from what i hear from mossy its getting less and less likely to show up. Almost as if he has bread that out of the strain. So i guess my post title was a little off but the chances of seeing a green one is few and far between.

interesting.. I would have liked to see one of each. I'm very interested in the PJs as I've said numerous times.

I saw a pic of one half way into flower and it was as green as it could be thick pistils and quite a bit of tric formation, but i cant remember where in the hell i saw the pic.

I am glad i got my hands on these they are really doing well and im planing to make my own seed stock :)

The only time that potency is impacted is when making seeds. As a female plant matures she produces THC to catch the pollen in the air, a natural trap if you will. Once the area has been pollinated there is no need for more THC production as that area has done its duty to preserve life. The plant then focuses the energy it was using in THC production to creating seeds. The next generation will not be less potent so to speak unless you cross with something that is not identical to the strain or has a lower THC content. If you do the before mentioned there could be some potency loss in the generation following.

sorry I haven't updated in a while guys... I just lost 2 of my closest friends about 3 days apart... Their wakes and funerals were really tough since we're all pretty young still... Have to admit it would have been a lot more difficult without the copious amounts of xanax... Everybody looks pretty healthy... Small amounts of heat stress and small amounts of nute burn... But anyway, today is day 17 so they should start showing sex over the next week... And I already started germing some new seeds to take the place of the males that I pull.

photos tomorrow hopefully.

the strain name will be "miles"
so far I have ("GWS","PJ","HBD","Flower Power","Easy Ryder" and "Afghan Kush Ryder" along with asst'd strains from the short mix)......................... If you guys have any suggestions on a strain composition, I'm all ears.
