I'll try to pick up camera wire today. I have a question: I had what looked like snow on the leaves yesterday,I turned the light up another notch & the snow went away. Did the heat do it? Will it come back? Thanks
Any pics? Sounds like it could be Powdery Mildew...

UK,It comes on every grow looks to good to be mildew. This time I had the light far enough away,then just had to turn light up to that super lumens setting trying to push plant,and left it up there longer than intended.. Fan runs 24, temp is never over 77 or under 64f.What causes that mildew you talking about? Thanks

PM is a disease, if you got clones they could have already been infected. Otherwise high humidity, low air circulation, and low temps cause PM. It's a nasty disease. Most people will say the worst two things that could happen to a grow are Spider Mites and Powdery Mildew.

I've messed with PM twice... I fucking HATE it. You don't cure it... just treat it. You should get on top of identifying it, and start treating if it is PM. I'm not sure it is though cuz I don't know why the light would make it disappear.

Love the avatar. Cute dog.

Never had it myself mate, but I read through the MJ Plant Problem section on this site daily......the more knowledge I have on this plant the better :-)

Take a read of this http://www.cannabisculture.com/articles/2250.html although Jig posted a good answer just after your post.

I am a little worried about how small mine is and flowering at the top already. I hope it gets big. I have never grown og kush 12/12 from seed
Dont worry some strains dont like this method of growth, Ive only been on this route for a few grows and so far I found this:-

Dinafem White Widow = Good
Big Buddha Cheese = Good
Ceres Seeds Purple = Bad (was tiny 9")
GHS The Doctor = Bad (so small 6")
DNA Chocolope = It hermied @ Day 17 my 1st in 6 years

So as ya can see just from my little time 12/12 FS not all strains like it, this is also documented in the thread a few times.
Its just the case your OG has more Indica genetics than Sativa so its gonna stay short as its a Indica dominant strain.

I have a true Sativa going atm that`s around 20 days old and its taller than my GHS Doctor @ 6 weeks !!!!

Trial and error my friend but she will get a little bigger than she is now but not alot, IMHO

:peace:.

That sucks about the Chocolope, my Cannalope Kush hermied but that was down to human error and lack of experience. Perhaps you were just unlucky or made a mistake? DNA are meant to be pretty reliable and I've read nothing but good stuff about them.

GHS I would expect to be a bit shit for obvious reasons :)

Iv`e never tried GHS before, the only reason I`m giving this a go is because I tried The Doctor last year and loved the taste, really savoury old skool flavour.

I think I was just unlucky with the Chocolope :(

GHS are renowned for providing it's massive consumer base with garbage, occasionally you might find something worth keeping or cloning etc, but it's quite the rarity these days. You'll find a lot of their seeds or genetics to be inferior or complete rip offs of the original strains. Such as Amnesia Haze, White Widow, White Rhino etc. I believe the reason GHS went down hill is because one of their better breeders left them, or at least that's one of the many opinions that I've read, it also seems the most viable.

If you're looking for good cheap budget seeds, try Female Seeds, I bought a 4 pack of C99 and a 4 pack of Lemon Kush from them and have had nothing but stellar results so far. Being new to growing I naturally made mistakes and messed up the germination process of 2 C99 seeds but the other two are horribly frosty and although they're not very stinky, what smell they do let off is deliciously pleasant and smells like a perfectly ripe grapefruit, the two I have seem to be the same pheno, which is fantastic as it's the Grapefruit pheno, yummy!! It's also got the most insane trichome production I've ever seen

The same applied for the Lemon Kush, I have all 4 growing, 2 in flower and 2 seedlings, the two in flower again seem to be the same pheno, or at least very similar in looks, huge amounts of pistils, strong heavy topped colas and enormous, fat dark green fan leaves. The smell, is as you'd expect, a hint of lemon with that famous Kush fuel fragrance.

I am getting to that stage where I just want to chop it for the sake of it, too much excitement for it to finish, but I am keeping strong and waiting until they're actually ready!

I hope I've given you a selection headache for what you intend to grow next, I honestly can not praise these two strains enough so far. Even the small bud of C99 that I picked off a week ago(2-3 weeks early) blew my head off. I just can't wait for the finished product :D

Edit; I've seen that you've got G13 Labs Gigabud in your sig, how is that? I've been looking at that one for a while(purely for the name haha) but not seen many reviews or anything. Could you shed some light on what it's like/how it's growing? Thanks.

Seed selection is the biggest headache of farming FULLSTOP lol.

As for the Gigabud its only 14 days old or so so not much to say apart from she`s alive and well.
I have plenty of seeds for now but I think my next purchase will be some sort of diesel, but my next inline is Dutch Passion Orange Bud :lol:
