Beautiful ladies man. Nirvana's strain? I grew 2 and fim'd lstd. I had issues though and harvest without a proper flushing and the flavor was nothing like one of the early samples I took before a feeding. You notice them being nute sensitive? I couldn't believe how easy I burnt mine.

dynamitejack · Nov 22, 2010

Thanks! Ya its a nirvana femized strain. I think I pushed them a bit hard through the first half of flowering, my ppm was between 1700-2000. I'm using House and Garden and their Drip Clean worked like a beast to keep salts from building up. So I can't say for sure if I think they are nute sensitive, I did have one pheno that was not liking the high ppms so I backed the nutes down to 1600-1800 for the last 3 weeks.

Did yours turn colors at all?

I'm on my second go around with Blue Mystic also. Those first 4 weeks of flowering are really tricky with her because they handle the ppms just fine during veg.

Then its like, low ppms for a while before requiring more phosphates, potassium, and magnesium, and if the ppms are too low you get the deficiencies. Really a difficult strain to grow as I've seen around the forums. My plants had little to no color change. The pictures on the websites they use to advertise the strain are extremely misleading in my opinion.

Look for that classic blue flavor. I found one plant out of 5 that was just extremely potent and berry flavored.

Mine had more of an indica look to them though. Here's a picture of one leading in to flowering. I gave up with the pictures after this.

Wow they looked great!

Haha I was the opposite, I don't even bother taking pics of the first 4 weeks of flower... it's dull

This strain seems to grow really strong in veg. I really didn't have much trouble flowering besides me being too aggressive with the nutes. I began to notice a blue berry smell around week 5 and when they failed to show any signs of color change I came to the conclusion that the name was just hype.

As far as the phenos, I got a 50/50 batch. Flowering 4 indica dominate and 4 sativa dominate then I have 2 mothers each of pheno.

I was thinking... after looking at these pictures, the pots I am using look awfully small for the size of the plant (especially the sativas). Anyone care to leave a comment as to whether or not I should be concerned? +rep :leaf:

The light is a 750w from lumatek and they vegged for 3 or 4 weeks.

They do veg incredibly well. I don't think I've ever had better looking plants. Two of them both fimmed grew almost identical to each other. Each of the colas after being topped all grew symmetrical. The fan leaves were huge and lush green. I only gave them a minor dose of nutes in miracle grow soil 4 weeks into veg under 4x 15w led panels. They did well in flowering chamber as well, minus a little bit of burning on some of the leaf tips from the light intensity. When I started feeding them, I was using up the last of my veg mixture with a little bit of bloom added and they soaked it up and rocketed. Then as they were blooming I upped the dosage and they lost a ton of leaves, but were still growing well with the leaves around the bud sites still being healthy and green. I stopped feeding it entirely for awhile and as it looked healthy I gave it less than a 1/4 dose of the recommended and bam.. I was forced to cut them before the buds could dense up a little. Meanwhile I was feeding a jane doe strain with full dosage and she loved every bit of it.

I also had heat issues and such that could have contributed to their stress. It was really a test grow in a cabinet I built. I'm finishing up my revised cabinet design now and getting ready to start again. the final color was sort of a mid to light green with a lot of amber hairs (matured faster than I liked actually because LED's need more time to make denser nugs than HID's).

An early sample after a good flushing (I was trimming off some of the less exposed flower sites and placed them on a dresser, and then found them 4 days later and said "Wtf lets smoke it" and the flavor was INCREDIBLE, unlike any pot I've ever tasted, amazing berry after taste and scent in the air). The final product having been cut after a nute burn was not entirely unpleasant, but not nearly the same. You can smell the old flavor in the air after it burns, but it's tastes like your average poorly flushed hydro off the street.

Did you flush your final product before you harvested? Even if you did burn a good flush should take care of any harsh taste.

This really was a test grow for me as well. New strain, room, nutrients, co2 and light. I can't wait until I start the next one, its gonna get serious!
