Starting to look better and better..they look healthy..1st pic looks super
Thank you. She's getting there, not as healthy as I'm use to as with my hydro grows but she's building steam. I've been battling deficiency's due to this being my first soil grow and with all home grown organics. It's definitely been a good learning experience and I'm never going back.

The flowers look nice..so you are half done flowering..making it look easy..
Thank you. So far I'm happy with how she's going but I feel it could be much better. It is my first time trying a soil grow and it shows. I just need to get a few more goes at it and amend my soil better.

I'll be hitting her with more molasses tea this weekend so hopefully those nugs will start to swell and ripen up nicely. I don't expect a ton of yeild (personal supply anyway) but I am hoping for some nice flavors.

The drying and curing really tempted me but i waited 2 months.

I didnt bother with teas in my organic soil.. I fed liquid nutes the last 20 days.

image.jpg Here is a C99 S1 that I made from Brothers Grimm stock.image.jpg This is the pic of the mother plant.
It was 100% tropical fruit (grapefruit/pineapple), I couldn't tell which, kinda in between. But it smelled delicious, heavenly. Smoke wise, for me it's narcotic like, nothing foggy about it at all, clear, energetic uplifting and thought provoking. I love it. This is one to have around at all times. If yours is anything like mine, you won't be disappointed.
Yours are looking good so far brother, your in for a treat.

Man that looks great! Luckily I still have a few more seeds left so I'll be able to give her another go later once I get this soil dialed in. I noticed your stems are very purple in those pics, is that a common strain attribute? Only reason I ask is because mine did the same and I assumed it was something I was doing wrong or a deficiency.

No brother it's nothing you did wrong, it's completely normal. Look at other pics of plants that are well into flowering mode, they all do it.

Day 30 and she's doing good. Sugar coating is getting thicker and buds are slowly but surely starting to thicken up. Just roughly 3-4 weeks left in flower.

She hasn't been watered in 2 days in hopes of drying the soil out a bit and tomorrow she'll get a nice drench with some Alfalfa/EWC/Molasses tea.

The girls look super, better than my first grow.
This was my first grow (c99). Organic soil..bit of nitro tox but bud ended super strong.. 1 plant 3oz.. https://drive.google.com/drive/mobile/folders/13Z_kCP4wWLnjmF07uOvHZEFuT1_tH2ek
Man she looks great! I'll be super happy if I can pull 3oz's of mine but at this point I don't think I will. Fingers crossed though because 3 really won't last me that long and it looks like the Tangerine Dream seeds I bought for my next crop are all immature duds. Only 1 germinated and is only an inch tall after 2 weeks of veg.

I ended up having to pop some Blueberry seeds I had left over but I'm about 2-3 weeks behind now. I like having something ready to throw in flower right after one comes out or else I'll be running out of supply and be forced to buy some.

My new diy led light..2700k. 3000k and 5000k leds.. Total 210w MAX in a 30x24 inch area. I cut led diffuser (plastic around leds) screw in extra bulbs when needed..2 4 light vanity strips..and a 7-1 light adapter..i like to start with 165w
I love the vanity light set up, looks awesome. Have you had a chance to run that new set up yet? Nice spectrum and coverage at a manageable wattage which I can appreciate that being on solar.

Eventually I'll change over to 100% led but right now my main problem is my solar panel positioning and getting enough hours of direct sun.

There people running 180w 12 leds 15w) on 2 vanities with 6 lights..

Good for 4x2 space..producing good weed. My friends out west are running 20 leds on 5 "4 light" vanity like i have..in a 4x4 space with 5 plants..and it is really going well..he vegs under 1 4 light vanity in a 2x2 area..

My next run will be with 2 of my lights (shown above).. For MAX 420w in a 3x5 area. I ran 4 7-1 light adapter with 28 leds..too much light in a thin lit area.. What i like is if i need more light i just screw in more..but u could easily run 12 leds in a 2x2 area..with 45w per sq ft. Best is 5-6 inches away..u get best efficiency. Excellent for scrog.
