Day 30 today

My buds are starting to chunk out... Calyx on top of calyx style... @ upthearsenal When am I supposed to see some serious growth in flower weight? Day 45?


Also, my girls are still full of N.. I don't want to add TOO much more N... Tiger Bloom is 2-8-4... You guys think I could get away with a full feeding on that with some slight N claw... Or should I bump the tiger bloom down to half for now? I'm not trying to burn my ladies..
yeah at around 6wks.

Very close then! I'm excited... These things are getting really frosty..

Day 31 today... fed with /gal

10mL Cal Mag
12mL Tiger Bloom
20mL Big Bloom
3mL Bio Weed

pH'd @ 6.6

They look like the N claw is still uncurling even after the feeding.... Smooth sailing from here? Wanted to keep the food up for the flowering boom.. Went with the notion they could handle a moderate feeding..

I'll put up some lights off photos tonight.. Going snowboarding tomorrow.. Got 19g of ground bud sitting in a crock pot with a stick of butter right now 8) 2+g per brownie..

Looking so magically delicious. Safe to say you are much happier with reserva privada so far over barneys?

Jeez I get more and more jealous as I watch this grow.
My headband girls are still in veg, starting to pre-flower.
I don't get to flower any until at LEAST mid march.

Yesterday... Day 34

Plant #1


Plant #2


Canopy



Watering with plain water next... Going to let them munch on whatevers in the soil for a week and see if the excess nutrients gets sorted out then.. Seeing some slight burning on the tips of the very lower fan leaves. No big deal really.

Ah man I'm loving your ladies! that canopy..... So clean and so even. I'm a bit jealous as my canopy is far from even. Do you know the flowering time for this strain?

Good work, can't wait for harvest

Thanks! I've put hours into that canopy:lol:

I hear the rp sour kush takes 70-78 days..

So we're about half way through..

I can tell you put a lot of time into that canopy! Dang that must be a little tough waiting that long, but I saw your concentrate thread earlier and doesn't look like you will be dry any time soon :)

I'm about 3 weeks into my first grow and I just can't WAIT for it to finish..

It's always worth the wait though! I really don't mind 10-11 weeks.. It could be longer, I just figure I'll have some stronger more plentiful medication.. That's why I chose the headband.. I hear it delivers. Good luck!


edit:

+ tomorrow the girls will be watered through with plain water 4mL calMag per gal .. we will see how much of a gal they drink after 5 days of no water..

grow note
: February 1st with plain water... on day 36

I'd be cautious taking them that far. My indica dom pheno was done at 8 week, at 9 she was startin to make those tiny ass seeds, like a spec of salt sized, but still annoying to have in the bud. Sativa phenos can go an extra week or so. I also use CO2 so that speeds them up a bit.

We will have to see then! I was told 10-11 weeks.. I will take them as long as they need to go ... Til the pistils turn, and all the clear trichs go cloudy, then a few of them turn amber... chop chop chop.. :P

Thanks for the advice!

I wish my light was as concentrated on my headband as it is on yours. I think I'll have really good smoke but yours is a bit frostier and chunkier than mine were at your age. outstanding job, keep up the good work. just curious, what are you feeding it/them? ppms?
 

Sr. Verde

Well-Known Member
Thanks.... I think I have the light like 6-10 inches from any main cola.. most are about 9 inches from the light..

ive been feeding them fox farms and kelp.. you can read back to see how much i think i take lots of notes on that..

I could honestly clip a sample and smoke it right now.. It's crazy, so much frost so far.. I'm really excited for day 40-50.. I'm happy if the calyxes keep packing on... as soon as they start inflating it will be real fun to watch :)

yeah man, you are going to have a really nice yield. I know you're smelling them now. by day 50, i think they have a similar smell but on a whole other level...so intense! I love the smell and the sample cola I cut yesterday still smells like the cured headband, unlike the other sample strains i cut that smell like plant. I cant wait to smoke it. definitely a killer strain.

i forgot I accidentally 'topped' my headband while training it one night lol. I think that probably negatively effected my yield. must get more beans. bongsmilie

Yeah man! Im interested to see the yield too.. But i have to give creit as they wouldn't look anything like they look now if it wasn't for the advice of multiple others.. They really let me avoid some mistakes! Thanks![/FONT][FONT=Tahoma, Calibri, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif]
Great to hear the smell keeps going. I happened to be by the tent around 3 am and couldn't put my finger on the vanilla/sour weed smell and I realized it was my plants stinking up the room heavily and heavenly. The carbon filter is really doing its job.

As far as topping, that was my initial plan until upthearesenal reccomended keeping it untopped and to train the meristem down and use SCRoG for maximum vigor... Glad I took that advice! It worked great.


I will probably pick up more headband beans too, keep some in the back pocket for good genetics... I'm going to wait til the end to taste it and I really think the headband will deliver![/FONT]
