Day 42 of flowering. most of Olde English's fan leaves have fallen off, except for the top ones. i guess i don't expect much of a yield from it now. the bud growing mostly at the top, and the bottom buds don't appear to be progressing much. the other two plants are fine, especially Silver...

thanks a lot, you too! are you going to make a grow journal?

at first, i thought it was nute burn, because i had given Olde English more phosphorus than the others, but it definitely could be K deficiency. that's a great book, and thanks a lot for the post! i gave Olde English a really small amount of a nutrients today, 3-5-3.

Flowering day 36 here are some pictures--- Silver Thunder top bud up close, a side view of Silver Thunder, Olde English's top bud, a side view of Olde English, top of Natty Ice. Olde English has some pretty bad nute burn- you can see it on the fan leaves in the picture. i flushed her today...

i just bought a little 60x-100x magnifier with a light at the end from radioshak, and it's really awesome, even though it's really hard to focus on the same thing for an extended period, because of the high magnification. the trichs are clear as far as i could see, although i plan to spend more...

i do not have one, but i'll get one. i need to go shopping. i thinking of also getting white styrofoam to put around the plants for reflection, and a tiny 30x magnifier from radioshack or something. i'm also thinking of adding a little molasses to the water... any ideas? i guess i'll do some...

Flowering day 32 a lot of Olde English's fan leaves are turning yellow and getting brown at the tips... i have read that this is fairly normal for the later part of flowering, but it's not in the later part of flowering. you can probably see in the group photo, Olde English is the big plant on...

great idea! yeah, i'll definitely try to put some reflectors in- i think i have some disposable aluminum pans laying around...

not much to update, here are some pictures from yesterday, which was day 27 of flowering. I took plant C out of lst a couple days ago, and it has really shot up. i like the shape it has now. i'm still thinking of a name for plant C. closeup of Silver Thunder's top bud, side view of Olde...

thanks for the advice! i don't plan on buying an hps for this grow, but it's really good to know that the electricity won't go up that much.

thanks! i use a Powershot sd800 IS.

Flowering Day 24 plant c is a girl!! i doubt it'll yield much, but what luck! all three are girls. Silver Thunder and Olde English haven't grown much since the last update, they're probably still getting used to their new pots. first picture is of plant c's pitils, then a closeup of the top of...

flowering day 21 i just transplanted Olde English into a bigger pot, and the transplanting went really well. here's a picture of Olde English in her new pot, and a group shot. I got some new higher wattage cfls today as well.

i haven't tried any bud yet, i'm going to wait a little longer. i am getting impatient... when i do try the bud, should i take it from the bottom of the plant? that's what i've heard you're supposed to do.

just transplanted Silver Thunder into a bigger pot, and i need to do the same with Olde English soon... here's a picture of Silver Thunder in the new pot.
