Hey Red, have you started flushing yet?
By the way, everything looks awsome!!
Nope not yet. Still have mostly clear and I’m following the advice of my mentors. I’m a couple days shy of week 7 end. Purple haze is supposed to take 9-10 wks in flower. Sativas have longer flower times so probably in a few days.
Took this just now
Tuesday September 18 day 110 from sprout 47 days from flip
Fed today. Gonna have to adjust on the back one she spit that right back out
Got some pics of her before hand
Her sugary shrubbery

Took these from the clone closet to transplant, bury, and strip and it didn’t go so well.
Short story: the one on the left was separated from her roots. Trying to reroot her as if I had taken a cutting.
I grabbed another and now have 3 seven gallon mainlines all day and at least 6 more nearing transplant.
Fed the older clones
The one on the right has been around 7 or higher on pH and every time I think it’s headed in the right direction it goes back up
These are their stems left and right respectively
These of their mothers respectively
Trichs
Yes, you’ve got some lockout going on. Just try to adjust her Ph and she’ll eat. Everyone looks great.

Got to surfin this afternoon and found some interesting info. Thought I’d share. I was wondering about my pH and yellow leaves. Got this from @PurpNGold74 thanks man
Pulled up the rap sheets on manganese, iron, and boron
I’m not getting Fe uptake from using too much P. I’ve been over doing the 0-50-30. Probably too much K also
Have yet to research effects of K overload or toxicity
Girls had an off day today. Just rearranged the veg room.

Today
The baby main 5 days ago
Today
This one I did yesterday. I staked it even though it doesnt need it to show the 3 main colas I will eventually top to make 6 main colas instead of the previous 8
Think that’s it for today
Thursday September 20 day 112 from sprout day 49 from flip
Watered today
Group pic
Brought the big main out in the light
12 days ago and today
Bud pics. Some still have white pistils coming out the top
Some of the ladies are farther along than others and all are more mature at the top 1/2.
These are trichs of the oldest looking buds (large main) thought I saw 1 or 2 amber in there
I stripped the clones in the armoire of all nodes except the top one
Spent about an hour training the left clone in the veg room. Pulled her down about 6 inches on the sides and supercropped about 10 colas in the middle. Got her down to 27 inches off the floor
Under their skirts
Watered them too
Til tomorrow
purple haze all in my brain lately things just dont seem the same actin funny and I dont know why scuze me while I kiss the sky!!!
Trichs are looking amber now must be ready to hang them
Those colours are devine!
You’ve got some beautiful fall colors going on there, that’s perfect.
Time to start your flush! Or have you already?
Not yet but I think it might be time at least for that one…
Friday September 21 day 113 from sprout day 50 from flip
Nothing exciting today.

Still some clear goin on
Veg room
I’m thinking of cutting nutes in 1/2 for tomorrow’s flower feed and start my flush after what are yall thinkin?
You can taper off on nutes. I never really ran a flush, just switched to straight water or a ripening blend for the last week give or take.
That’s what I been doing as well. The last couple of weeks of flower, I switch to organic at a reduced amount.
Saturday September 22 day 114 from sprout day 51 from flip
Started to water with nutes today and discovered the pH meter I was using wasn’t correct. I used the other one to find out my pH out on the first 2 plants were 6.1 and 6.0 and my ppms in the 3000s so I flushed em. Waited a few hours and fed them

Trichs
Still seeing some clear
Thinking about drilling this plant tomorrow @raustin or do you think it’s still early?
Clones got fed also
I unfolded the 7 gallon pot the one on the right is in and put about 4 inches of new potting soil. I think that helped with the pH. Had to retrain and retie. Got her a little more spread out.
The one on the left is 37"x37" wide. I’m thinking of building a 5x5 or 6x6 scrog net for when I switch to flower which should be within the next 2 weeks.
Gonna need more lights before too long lol!
I think you’re a couple of days too early to drill, keep checking though. I’d like to see less clear before the drill.
You’d still be growing awesome plants!
Sunday September 23 day 115 from sprout day 52 from flip
Mostly clone work today. Put a few spacers in the mainline to let in more light.

I supercropped one of the mainlines to make a somewhat even manifold
The first one I transplanted I called baby main so that’s her name and here she is
She’ll get the same treatment whenever I dig her outta there
Got six 3 gallon fab pots today and transplanted the baby clones in the armoire. There’s not a lot of room or light in there but nowhere else to go
And trichs from Back
Til next time
