everything is looking amazing! i'm sorry if you've mentioned this.. but how long did these veg? seems like only a couple weeks or something. what kind of lights and soil n' junk are you using?
 
Actually they have been vegging for some time now. See like I mentioned in one of my vids, I have heat and cold problems outside my tent and also no Co2, so I take my plants grow a little on the slower side. The key is to veg it till you get the branching you want. From seed, about 7-8 weeks is my guess. Iam growing in Botanicare Coco Coir and perlite, useing Flora Nova with the additives and a little added Grozyme and Cal Mag. Everything is hand watered. I keep my PH at aroung 5.5-6. Nutes dont get higher then 50%. Veg lights are 2 T5 56 watts and flower light is 600 watt HPS Hortilux. Tent is a 4.5ft x 4.5ft x 78 inches. Hmmm....thats all I can think of.

Thanks
 
11 Days later!:
Plant on front left corner is the Plush Berry "Symmetrical", Just behind it at the same eye level with a little fatter buds on top is the Plush Berry "Twist" and in back left is the Space Dawg #1. The Plush Berry Symmetrical seems to be more on the Space Dude side of things with more of a cherry berry sweet scent. The Symmetrical is way frostier for now and is definitely a larger producer, for now. The Twist has a plumper top but is not as thick down the stem but still has real nice fat popcorn buds down through. The smell is way weirder though. Like sweet candy fruit and earthy club soda-ish? Really looking forward to that one. The Space Dawg #1 is the more chunky bud pheno that has less stretch and is sweet lemon candyish. To the right in the center back are the tops of the little crazy frosty Ripped Bubba. The other day it smelled pure of berries and kush just like the Bubba that I have come to know but know it smell very sweet cherryish kush with slight JTR airiness smell? I added 3 new ones, the Space Dawg #2, Space Dawg #3 and the Plush Berry "Beauty". All female! I hope I don't over grow myself but thats why I keep them in small containers and keep the heights very adjustable to allow the room to really open up vertically. The plant on the front right is the Space Dawg #5. Its starting beef up a bit. the buds so far are a little more airy and the everything seems to be taking a little more time. Still smells amazing like skittles or fruit loops cederish and still looks like its gonna be a winner, just may take a little longer to ripen. The right side middle are the two beer cup plants. There producing some nice little nugs and starting to frost a bit. The back right is the Space Dawg #4. Its got like 8 heads I think , not all the same size though but looks more like the chem pheno. Its growing very well and budding up all down the green poles! Its in day 22 of flower. I only have my LA Confidential and Ripped Bubba "Slimer" which is also female. I called her Slimer because when I first got the thrips it looked like some slime on the leaves. Thrips held at bay for now. I just added that strip thing and because its a small space , one was just fine and seems to be working. I put it 1 day in the small veg and 3 days in the smaller flower. I have recently germinated 9 seeds (one may go though) of a suprize strain, so we will see how that goes and how it develops. I will say this though, I have high hopes for it! Good genetics and known to be easy to grow and remain healthy and of course, "Old School". I also have recently purchased the new RooR seeds i2 ASH and i3 Bubba OG. Ok fine Ill be the guinea pig! They come with mega nice genetics though and the breeders are proven. They are not bred by RooR, so please stop with the "more seed chuckers!" Breeders are Shantibaba and the people at Emerald Triangle Seeds. Shanti is proven and well Emerald Triangle came highly recommended. If you see the new Treating Yourself issue, the guy whose crops pic is taken in the intro is the guy who sold me the seeds. He either runs or works for, I don't know him that well, the company Finest Medical Seeds. Anyway, my paranoid point is, I feel comfortable with the recommendation so we'll see. I germinated 4 seeds in 24 hours so 6 more to go. all have cracked but need another day to grow some tails. oh yeah I I am starting with the Bubba OG as it needs more time to veg then the ASH. Ill put pics soon I hope.

I'm excited, for you and for myself! I have all three strains coming in the mail. Can't wait to see your final pics and get your report!
 
The shorter Space Dawg is getting really chunky and fat on top. I may need to tie them up. The space Dawgs so far besides the shorter one seem to have a bit of a stretch to them but nothin out of control. The Ripped Bubba does not need much food in the beggining as i killed half of them by adding nuts to early. I havnt harvested any TGA yet so I cant say anything about the smoke but I can say, out of 25 seeds, 16 females, 2 males and the other were thrown due to what ever reason. All of them so far are growing fantastic and almost intimidating to look at because of so much frost. Im getting all nervouse Im gonna get to high from this stuff cause it looks insane and smells insane as well. The whole tent is almost nausiating its so sweet. They do not smell like the typical weed smell. I would say that I am pretty sure the Plush Berry is probably the best plants so far as in health, grown with ease, and so far the chunkiest and frostiest. The Space Dawg is pretty vigorous and can be ready for flower prety quick as it branches well.

That space dawg keeps sounding better and better im glad i found your feed so now when im veg mine i can get the smoke report from you :)
 
I found a dead fly under the bud leaf that got stuck in the "sap" on Space Dawg #1. The Space Dawg #1 and the two Plush Berrys are getting really top heavy and Im getting nervous their gonna snap. This is day 40 so I think Im gonna take them to day 50? and start flushing them and feeding them only water and try and stretch it to day 65 or at least till they look like they cant take it anymore. I started beefing up the KoolBloom tonight so hopefully ill see them fatten up before I flush. I also got 7 beans germd outta 10 of the new RooR Bubba OG. Ill leave the other three one more day in hopes theyl crack. I put them in rockwool and 5 have seen the light so far.
