my NYCD experience...

Hi everybody!

this is one of my happiest growths,it was a bit shaky at beginning had some prob with seeds but things are going along and seems fine,
it is the happiest because i'm growing my favourite cannabis of all times... NYCD.

this is only my second growth but wanna share this experience with u all

I'm growing in soil (light-mix from Biobizz) under one 400HPS lamp, it's actually in the 1st week of 18/6, so i still i have a long way ahead...

all plants started from seed and besides the NYCD im also growing 2 skunk plants from sensiseeds (same as my previous crop, really happy with it),
4 plant have a 2 week delay from the other 4 so i have a contrast of 5 nodes plants with nearly form first true leafs seedlings



so has it develops i will be posting

peace

Wahey, and were off.

Ding ding round two lol

Yay, first one here too, best seat in the house

All the best mate and good luck, but we all know you dont need luck lookin at the first grow of yours

yesterday i changed pots for the last time, so i will keep them in these 5,5Lt. till i cut them down, I ended up changing them all...

I keep forgetting that this pots (1Lt.) only last like a week, after that period you risk getting rootbound, but
everything went smootly, a bit tricky the small ones though but i managed

hi all

I know that I'm not a experienced grower, but I always thought that it was only 2 stems per node when growing from seed!?
making kinda like a cross shape viewed from the top!

it looks like I found 3 stems on the same node in one of my NYCD...

and the plants look fine!! all leafs stretch towards the light, no more droppy!

so everything went well

...although it kinda looks like the plants already start asking for N, but i'm still gonna hold my horses with the nutes!
because just added fresh soil, so gonna wait a week or so and see what happens!

ok, one month under 18/6...

and for now at least 2 of my NYCD are females ehehe (have already preflower),

the triploid that now has become a tetraploid still haven't showed sex and it's really not the healthiest one
or maybe i still haven't guess what's going on! at first i thought it would be N but now it looks like a Sulfur deficiency
(young leaves lime green, hook downward) and according to what i found out this can happen because of high PH or
excessive Calcium, i automatically exclude this last option because i use RO water (i start with EC 0.0) I admit that
my RO water PH is high (around 8,5) but I always lower the PH to 6,3 before feeding/watering! ... so i'm kinda
i'm thinking in giving just plain water for now! i'm afraid to make it worst if i start to mess up much

any advice or opinion is welcome!

Those sure are some trippy ass leaves. Really healthy looking. I got the red diesel from Barneys started and I'm hoping to get some diesel traits (especially the Grapefruit taste).

Fantastic mate

tomorrow I'm gonna switch the light to 12/12...

so this is the last day on 18/6

I let them veg some more weeks this time, all plants have pre-flowered (at least 4 are females) the other 4 still can't be sure. The tallest plant is about 50cm. I has very happy to find another new york diesel polyploid plant in my grow so now it's 2 eheh

preflower in one NYCD


the other polyploid


the last day on 18/6...

those girls are going to reach for the sky i promise you. i had to supercrop my like crazy then support the cropped branches from the top with fishing line. it really lets me get maximum light to my girls.

yours look great! check out my new grow journal too in my sig. check out the forked head on one of my nycd girls! i love it! by the way, out of my 3 nycd growing, 2 have the 3rd fan leaf like yours were showing. they really look cool

i have 2 of the triple fan leaved ones growing right now too. i hope the extra leaf means extra potent!!!!

Very pretty plants. The polyploids do look cool, leaves popping out all over the place. Those NYCD seeds are sure expensive, they know what they want to make on them.

Week 1 - 12/12
ok first week flowering it's done!

out of 6, 4 are female! this weekend I'm going to put the males in a friend house so i can collect some pollen for making some seeds later!

I' am currently feeding with bloom nutes, last measures: EC 1.0 / PH 6,3

two of the plants that had sulfur deficiency where treated with epson salts

the NYCD really are going up i will probably supercrop the main stem so i can get the side branches to develop a bit more...
but gonna leave the nice polyploid untouched let's see what mother nature prepare for me

as i noticed the skunk plants are developing much quicker than the NYCD (more bud development) but a bit smaller
than the NYCD and also if compared with last grow, that was this skunk

the tallest NYCD is 70cm the smallest 65cm and the skunk's 50cm/40cm

EC:1.0
PH:6.3
Temp: 25ºC
RH:40%




the polyploid... the stem is almost rectangular rounded corners





one of the males was supercropped, (now is outdoors in a friends house) waiting for some pollen to be released,
i just supercroped it for practice cause i've never done it before, so i thought trying on it first in the male if things
went wrong ...too bad but it was just a male
...and it looks fine


Peace

damn they look super healthy! my nycd are on day 50 of flowering and seem to be kind of just chillin and not quite ready to swell up yet (hope its really soon). they technically should be done in 20 more days but i am not sure now. i don't know if my supercropping of them while they were in 12/12 could possibly delay flowering a little or not?

my guess is that it delays, anything that stresses the plant make it take longer to finished

i did it!.. it's difficult doing it the first time though because I'm consciously breaking something I love
it's almost like a leap of faith ...eheheh anyway i did it on 2 NYCD

gonna leave one of the NYCD untouched (as well the skunks cause i no they don't grow that tall)
because I always like to see untouched plants final 'picture' and I dunno if i'm lucky or not but i think
i'm getting some purple already in the leaves of the 'untouched' NYCD

some pict's




12 hours later:



let's see what happens...

Marijuana torture, too cool. Good looking plants

those are gonna stretch a a bit more throughout the next couple weeks... be ready for that.. they got some nice fat main stems though! looking real good.. they'll be able to support all the fat juicy budz that'll be growin'.. be sure to keep that male pollen away tho...
