Much appreciated, damn I need more Y splitters..guess that's my next plan for today. Gonna swing by your grow!

HSF, do you have a link to your current grow?

Just cleaned up the closet, got my light fixture back hanging as it should since making the improvements, also grabbed a sturdy box to sit my oscillating fan on to be a little higher up to blow the heat away and the 4" fan on the floor blowing in between the plants from the cooler side of the closet.

Going to take pictures now of the whole room and separate pics of the plants. Soo..yea, I'll be back with those.

Skunk: is the bigger plant and today is it's 16th day since being above dirt. She will get watered tonight or tomorrow morning.
EJ: is the smaller plant and she is 8 days old today.

Pictures also show my temp/humidity readings as well as the whole side of the closet, light fixture, and at least the oscillating fan should be involved in one of the pics.

Just watered the skunk with about a liter and a half, this time I removed the water from the catch tray. I've decided not to top the skunk this time around. Instead, I'm going to just flower early..well early for the EJ. So for the EJ who I'm expecting to feed the next watering I'm going to go half n half with all purpose and bulb food.

Going out today to get some more Y splitters and I need to get a some more pH testers. There will be 8 bulbs put into play (more if possible) by the time I make the flip. I still only have the 5 in there, 2 will possibly have to be the 26 or 27 watt bulbs as being unemployed has got me broke as hell.

Also, going to work on the PC case again and try to control the heat enough to make it a veg cab. Be nice to have a small perpetual setup.

Just for information purposes the Flying Dutchmen Skunk #1 description on attitude states 50-55 days for flowering. And as for the Emerald Triangle Emerald Jack all I could find was on attitude and actually they both state 8-14 weeks for flowering. Did find a smoke report on the Emerald Jack just now and his took right around 8 weeks, that would be nice.

Plants are still doing well, nice and healthy. Only thing was that the skunk seems to want more nitrogen because the single blade leaves are almost completely yellow. I did start some LST last night on the skunk, and she's already taking to it. Already see growth taking off.

Nice, sweet, earthy aroma coming off when the temps reach around 78-80, very nice smell. Will be making the flip tomorrow. Lights will go out at 10 a.m. and come back on at 10 p.m. Will get some more pics later tonight since it's her last day of veg.

SKUNK


Emerald Jack

Skunk: 19/20 days old.
EJ: 12 days old.

Haven't been able to get in there and check on the plants since the lights have been on but will do before I get to bed. Hopefully be able to do some more LST to the skunk. I'm sure at least one of them needs to be fed/watered by now but waiting until next lights on to do so.

Will be posting pictures more often over the next couple weeks to keep up with the growth.

Skunk was watered last night, a few cups drained and run-off was left to get soaked up. Also gave her a tbsp. of bulb food. The Emerald Jack will be watered/fed when the lights come on tonight. She'll get 1/2 tbsp. of all-purpose and a full dose of bulb food.

New pics to come tonight when the lights come on.

The EJ got fed tonight, and I removed the 2 leaves from the skunk that finally turned completely yellow. Decided to wait a few days on the pictures until growth is more noticeable. Other than that they're looking healthy, can't wait to see them bush out over the next few weeks.

New pictures to come late tonight. Both are doing very well, probably take a clone or 2 off the skunk in another 5 days or so.

EL OH EL

Just got in there to check on my plants to find a bug chillin' on the newest growth on my EJ. Checked around the first inch and a half to 2 inches and looked all around both plants, found no others. Just as a precaution I sprayed both plants thoroughly with neem, probably do it once or twice more as well.

On top of that the EJ is losing her single blade leaves, and the Skunk is also showing some yellowing on the lowest set of fan leaves. Skunk is going to get watered tonight, the EJ probably tomorrow night.

I'm still a few Y-splitters short of where I need to be but unfortunately I'm going to have to work with what I got. So, I feel there's a better way to make use of my lights, that's what I'll be doing tonight.

So, the yellowing is still persistent and is on both plants. Tips are eventually becoming rust colored and brittle as the affected leaves yellow. The only conclusions I can come up with is that the tap water is doing this or they want more food? My bet is on pH being off because stems are starting to turn...purplish? Well, as you can see I'm having trouble diagnosing this one, will take pictures and maybe someone could bring their professional opinion this way.

Skunk: The Bad

Not sure how well you can see it, but there is some spotty yellowing in there.

Emerald Jack: The Bad

Two leaves, both are the first set. Same thing happened to the Skunks' first set.
