These plants are behind and it’s my fault. Was told the water I was getting was ph of 5.8 and I didn’t do due diligence by checking it. So for 2-3 weeks I gave the plants water that was a ph of 4 or below I presume as I dont have a pen but I have the liquid to check color indicating ph. Time to get a pen I suppose- any suggestions? Not trying to break the bank but I came across Apera ph20 for like $44. Is that a good brand?
The plants are showing a change for the better and banana punch is still recovering so I went ahead and topped the rest, maybe banana punch will catch up soon. But I can say that Flight Risk by CSI is showing great growth characteristics such as vigor and resilience. The rest all seem to have recovered and hopefully didn’t get to stressed out. Regardless of banana punch, they will get flipped in a couple weeks and as always, that’s when the fun starts. Hehe

I use a $30 pen off Amazon. Been working great for a year. Long as it has tds and ph you’re good to go. Just clean it every few weeks so it reads correctly.

And what is the best way to clean your pen to keep it in good operating condition?
They make cleaning solution but it works poorly. I typically just run it under water and knock it off gently with a qtip. After you use it for a few weeks you’ll notice gunk and algae looking stuff that builds up along the probe. Once you get it wet it pretty easily comes off. Once you actually see it, you’ll know what I mean.
Got it, thanks for sharing the info.

On the snow g I found that there’s a bigger pheno and then a smaller bushier one. Looks like you got the bigger. It’s pushing tons of buds on mine. Looking good

Oh man thank you for sharing!!! Let’s me know what to look forward to and to anticipate.
Don’t you love the way she smells? Man I really dig the smell every time I bump the leafs while watering and trimming some of the cover crop.
Do you find her to be a heavy feeder or light and sensitive? Do you have a post of your grow?? I’m going check now.

I really like the plants overall. They look like they’ll be heavy yielders. Mine don’t really have a special smell, kinda fuely but I expect it will change as the flowers grow. I’m hitting mine with blue kush pollen actually to see if it will add some flavor. I grow multiple strains all the time and they all get fed the same. The ppm of the runoff right now is ~2200 so some might say thats high but it’s pretty normal for me. Here’s some pics. These are 2 weeks into 12/12.
Snow G 1
Snow G 2
I only kept two of them but the smaller one looked like this. This is a cobra lips but the structure was similar.

Banana punch stunted and getting the chop if no improvements in one week.
Snow-G
Small fun little grow with a mish mash of genetics growing together. I’m thinking it might be best to abort the banana punch and let the other four plants take over the space.
But sometimes runts can be quite a surprise- I just don’t know if to keep or give it a chance. I mean it’s supposed to be the same age as the Dracarys bagseed.
What would you do with the banana punch ?

Is it the same age as the others? If so, then yeah I’d probably cut it. If not, might keep it. Looks like a healthy plant overall, unless it’s1/5 the size of the others lol.

Best thing about a runt is it’s gorilla grow ready

I take it you are a glass half filled type of person rather than glass half empty. You have a nice perspective. Thanks for sharing! Look forward to your snow G complete.

Today 12/12 was activated. I’m excited to see flowers forming in the next few days or so.
The Dracarys smells like a straight up ball of Pine Resin. Pinene is very strong on this bagseed and I’m really looking forward to seeing how she finishes up.

Shoreline x Frozen Margy x Chemalibu Kush got FIMMED. Got 5 nice tops developing on this one.
Dracarys bagseed- I messed up, should have got a cut. She smells literally like a ball of pine resin with that musty haze smell. Got a feeling she gonna be
Flight Risk coming along.
Snow-G has amazing structure. Naturally bushy and a vigorous plant. I only topped her and this plant has the most flower sites of all the others.
Hard to believe Dracarys is a Week and half younger from the rest! And banana punch got ejected from the party. Been stressing the plant and just put it outside to grow. Let’s see what the plant does.
Thanks for visiting, Show now begins with flowering initiated just under 2 weeks ago.
