Well, day 22 of flowering begins. Walked in just before light came on tonight. Heat was still hot and the temperature was 70-71 in both rooms. So the 67-68 low must be happening during the time the heat starts up.

I had checked the height at 30½" this morning before the lights went out. There was no vertical grow. But horizonally they had grown into each other again. Rotated a ¼ turn and Moved a little ways a part.
I took some macro pictures of bud development, I think they are OK.

There is no change to the few wilted leaves. No better no worse. So I think I'll wait a few days see if the yesterdays feeding helps. My plan was to move some plants in to flower room in about 3 weeks to keep an start a 4-5 week harvest I think it may bee hard to fit.

These are the first pictures of my babies in veg. As is you can see I burnt them up at just a few days it just got to hot in the dome. I almost started new ones but decided to try these. Topped them 2 days ago and moved the light much closer. So I will check the heat in a few.
Hope you enjoy!View attachment 677649

These latest photos really show your plants "in the whole". I think they look great. Nothing to worry about.

Its day 23 flowering Blackjack. I'm down right giddy tonight. So I go in to grow, a quick overview look good and I head right to the plant with the saggy lives. An really clear there are tricones visible to the naked eye Like, little hairs across the top leaves a beautiful white fro on top. Its down right seductive. I was not expecting that kind of development at this point. I just did not expect to see them at all, much less on that plant.
Its amazing how well it can be seen with a macro setting in a picture.
I took several other pictures of buds looking closer at development. None of the others had any tricone development. I did include one other bud picture also. I would hope all will be developing buds soon.
31½" today I believe that 1" today. I got room for at least another foot of grow vertically and horizontally, bring it on.
Thats it for tonight.

So I went to check the plants out this evening just as the lights come on. I had left the green light on my wall switch on from yesterday. But all looks good. No measurable grow but the same plant that had tricones on it yesterday had even more today.
I do have what looks like rust on 2 plants. Its only on a few fan leaves. Best I can tell it looks like mag/ca deficiency. If it continues I add a little Epson salt to my watering tomorrow or Thursday. I'm a medical user. I ran out today, have no money to buy any smoke and no alternative for pain relief. My head was killing me. I looked over at all those buds with resin on the leaves and buds just growing away and thought why not just a couple of those small sugar leaves. I know its just been only 24 days into flowering, yesterday was the first sign of resins, I could hear you shouting don't do it. But my head felt like someone was inside with a hammer. So I took a small bud developing on the side of the plant and plucked a few real small sugar leafs. I put them in the microwave for about 15 seconds. It was still wet but wilting a little. So I just rolled them into a ball put them in my pipe an smoked away.
In just a few seconds my headacle let up a lot much better. And, it is a nice light buzz. Tasted and smell better that most of the shit I smoked lately. So this may be how I get through the next few weeks. Any suggestions on what/what not to do to harvest a little here and there would be appreciated.

Congratulation to New Jersey resident. Its a move in the right direction.

No more vertical or horizontal grow 2 days now still t 30½" on tallest plant. Everything still looks good overall. I water to night and added a little epsons salt to the water. Just a ¼ tsp. to each plant. I included a picture of a couple of the rusty leaves. They otherwise look great.

The is some red beginning to develop on the ends of the hairs on the bud. Which is exciting to see.

The first two pictures are of the rusted leaves. The 3rd pictures is a overall picture of the same plant and the 4th a picture of the main cola of that plant. And finally to pictures of bud tops. One focused on the red tips and one focusing on the sugar on the leaves.

So hope you enjoy.

could be spider mites cause spider mites make little spots on the tops of the leaves where they suck the juices out. or it could over nuteing or your ph is off.

Not spider mites.... not so far as I can tell (which I should know ;) )

Looks like maybe water spots on the leaves...... causing slight bleaching (fairly common nothing to worry about)

If not...... check your Micro nutes to ensure you have been keeping them up in ratio to your Primary and Secondary Macro nutes :D

I suppose I am subscribed :D

Thanks for replying. Sure its not spider mites. I've raised a few tomato before, battle aphids, spider mites and a host of other outside. So we'll see.
Thanks

Hows the odor so far in week 4?Mine are just starting week 3,slight odor when i open the tent but noting major.I have an array of odor combating pieces in place...ie carbon filter,ona gel,incense,2 air purifiers,and an ozone generator.I havn't been running the exhaust fan/carbon filter during lights out yet.Was wondering when the smell starts coming on

The smell is starting to increase but its not bad. I'm using a carbon filter, the fan is on a thermostat so it never runs in the dark and about 50% of the time when the lights are on. I also have una at various places to cover smell when the fan is off. I think most of my smell problems have been due to soil. I'm going all organic and it has a strong earthy smell. However, most say it has a strong smell the last few weeks. I hope I'm prepared.
I have an air cooled light. I have left the intake open and I draw from room, which draw from inside my house and filtered back into my house. It provides a good bit of heat for the house. summer I plan to add another fan pull hot air from outside and send it to my attic. The room air will be on the fan pulling cool air from my house to cool the room and back into the house. I think this will be my best option to keep things cool. I hope the stink doesn't change how I have to do things.
I hope that makes sense.
I just read grow2smoke1 stating he was in week 3 I had to go back and check my start date again. This is week 4 for me. Where have I been. Sunday begins week 5 I'm happy cause i'm out of weed. So 4-6 weeks of grow my nirvana's estimation.

Tonight starts a new week. It is hard waiting on that first crop. I am out. So waiting hard.
The tallest plant has hovered around 32 inches for several days now. It appears the stretch is over for my main colas, however, the lower buds seem to be stretching still and any are no longer lost in the sea of leaves. Sugar on leaves around buds.
I'm beginning to have odor problems. I have a odorsok and it does not appear to be working. I washed it and tumble dry hot at the manufacturers instruction. I thought I would look up the web site to see what else could be done, and the web site is gone. I guess I'm going to try a DIY and see if that works and on from there.
Anyway some pictures of bud closeups, some picks total of plants and picks of side buds.
Enjoy and I be back soon.
