Youre doing a really great job, very beautiful and healthy plants.
Thanks @Hambone, I’m sure theres gonna be marks on the wall all through this grow… lotsa Good people keeping me on the track here Bro!
Here are a few detail shots from last nites watering. A good Misting and 20 minutes in water. The autoflower is hanging-in there (foreground)

Nice grow man!
So its a Cross of South African Strain with Congo?
And that’s a good thing! I’m looking forward to following along and do wish you killer success.
I just am drawn to that Congo.
Looking great all around!
No, the Congo “is” Labeled as the South African Congolese… I’ll dig up the answer for ya @Elchischas
Derived from a Single source I believe, breeder supported
Right?! She looks like she may very well be the ticket to Outer Pace!

You got a short pheno Oaxaca from the look of it. I’m way behind at post 231…can’t wait to see the progress.
Big Dinner tomorrow nite @Upstate.
I’ll have some close-ups…
Great add-on , nothing like the eyes of an expert to cheer up your girls …
Stretch Is 1/3 of total flowering time. Roughly. It’s the middle third of flower.
The first stage is main beam growth.
The second stage the lateral branches come in and the top extends. This is the stretch. It can begin with a clump of flowers forming, and then floral formation kind of stalls or goes into slow motion, and the little clumps of flowers are carried away from the main branches and become tips of branches. Others give no clue flowering has begun, and only make branches.
The third stage for most Tropicals is flower production, but some Sativas have a second stretch at this time, where tertiary(3rd stage) branches form off the secondarys. This is common in Thai strains like Squirrel Tail. This 2nd stretch occurs with the main flowering during this final stage of development.
This one is relatively unknown. Personally I think it has Pakistani and maybe Chinese heritage , but double serrations are common in Barefrog’s Kashmir. It’s truly a mystery. West India has a Broadleaf link dating back at least to the 1930’s…when cultivation for hash briefly occurred in Indore as the West Chinese hash market ended, and there was a brief attempt to relocate it to India as a replacement. I think some of these Broadleaf West Indian finds are from this time, and are not modern influences. These are old Heirlooms.
@George it’s wonderful watching you turn to landraces. You’ve given excellent advice. I hope your Tirah/ Kush project brings you the zzzz’s You’ve been seeking!@MissinBissin you too, of course! Great job, Great grow! @HeadyBearAdventures I too am hearing Welcome to the Jungle beginning to play in the background. Lucky its a short Oaxaca!
Thanks for all this Decadent info @Upstate. It’s the Stuff I can chew-on, thats for sure.
Appreciate your time reading through this history. It’s Straight ahead Boss and I’m going to be ready
Excuse the gap here, but things are moving forward. Big Dinner last nite of Worm Castings / Kelp Meal and it was decided to Up-Pot the Congo from a 2-gal, to a 3-gal pot
Congo kicking off the tight shoes. She was fed from below, then the pot was slit with a knife and lifted right out into the next one
Bhadra C is lifting the whole canopy.
Bhadra B is a text-book version of how this Stretch was planned out
Squirrel Tail is happy in the tent. (Overlooked, not forgotten)
Squirrel Tail looks a little droopy, she was fed Water, and had the Soil Topped-up
CONGO Bud reaching for the ceiling, healthy after a transplant 2-days ago
The really Bad News for the Tent was the discovery of WPM all over the Bhadra C plant, below
Here are a couple of examples of the WPM. Did a semi major defoliation of Fan Leaves, ordering 1 and Done goodies today @JohnnyPotseed
Bhadra B is still stunning, x 3 pics below
And the Oaxacan is trucking right along
Oh man, that’s a real drag you got PM ! You’re in for a bit of work and decision making now! It’s gonna be a hard go, trying to finish those long season plants and fight white powdery mildew the whole time. I hope the one and done works out for you! Best of luck!!
Looking good overall, bummer about the WPM. That’s one of those things I’ve not ever been visited by.
Seen the one and done thread that seems to have a lot of promise. Good luck, fingers crossed for you
Congo still my favorite with those crazy leaf needles. Your training and sideways main stalks look to be working for now
Make sure you break the life cycle of the mildew infestation or else it’ll keep coming back. When your plants are in veg mix 1 tablespoon of elemental sulfur in a liter of water, then spray that on your plants. Coat them good. Do it again 2 weeks later and the mildew will be extinct. Never spray in bloom and never use within 30 days of an oil based application.
RIP BHADRA “C”
She burst into WPM mode earlier this week and a Plan has been orchestrated.
Hypochlorous Acid arrives Thursday, they get sprayed that nite.
Bhadra C is gone, and a major defoliation has taken place on the Fan Leaves of Bhadra B, Congo, Squirrel Tail and Oaxacan.
Oddly enough, Bhadra B (front right) appears to be the least “WPM” impacted plant of the Bunch.
Officially, week 7 flower, the Buds have begun on bhadra B
Squirrel Tail looks kinda Ragged but she is not going aNywhere
Tonight, the Tent / Light / Walls / Floor get Washed with IPA-99%
Oaxacan (short pheno) looks great below, she moves-up to a 3-gallon bag soon
Congo is DOING IT full blast (front left)
