New Grower Round 2

Looks awesome. If these are Nirvanas NL then Im in for a treat. I've got 4 of these going right now. 2 of them are stunted so I gave one to my mother in law for her birthday. Yours is looking great and not bad for CFL. I am running CFLs right now but I may have to get an HID setup soon. I don't think it will be easy negotiating bulb position on 3 plants. Keep up the good work!!!
 
Thanks Nam80232 for da rep. Just like I did with Squid I am just following the directions of peeps like you. Thanks my friend. Yes I think it is what you would call "putting on weight" she looks like she is going to out produce both of the first 2 combined. I figure 3 or 4 weeks maybe even pive.

Str8Bacon if you are growing the NorthernLights, yes it finally produced some decent smoke for me. I ordered 5 from Nirvana and they were my first seeds ever. I started one and thought I killed it so I started a second then the first came back around. so I had 2 going at same time. After stunting, and just general newbie messups along with plucking lil buds to smoke I only ended up with 40g between the 2. I think that journal is still up. However on this one I am taking Nam's advice I have been pH ing my feeds and checking run off but I fretted run off being so low. But thanks to nam I discovered the FFOF is notorious for that. So Nam said just pay attention to plant, that's what I have been doing with this one. (except letting her get dry last week.) and I am stoked with the results so far. The big bud on top of this one is going to 3 or 4 times the size of the first 2. My only advice being the total newb I am. Is this strain takes more than any 60 days like it says on website. It is at least like 90 to 100 days for full and good yield. But I really loved both the taste and aroma and really look forward to sparking this bad girl up. I think with just the one plant at a time go getter that I am my CFL's are getting good penetration. Enjoy my friend. If I can help let me know.

Dirty Budster Thanks. Yea I kinda freaked when I first opened the tent and she was drooping, I thought for sure I killed it. But I gave her almost a whole gallon of mist and really like 4 or 5 hrs later she was perking up, and by the next day you would never know.:peace:
 
Day 56 to 72

OK I could not resist here is a pic from day 56 then day 72 I think it is slow But then again I dried it up once already and tried to make it start flowering before it was ready and she is still just chugging along, pretty well I think. ENJOY :peace:

Still Kickin

OK, I am still alive and so is Wilamina. :yay: Still just chugging along. So many things going on and mostly BS. Laptop went out, AirCond. in house went out, both pumps on my boat went out, My wife turned the fan off in the tent because the A/C guy was in the attic. When I got home it was 106 degrees in the tent. POOR WILAMINA :Stones slap: So here are some updated pics, I hope they are clear enough you can tell me what you think. I am going to start with just plain bubbled pH water from now on is that about right ? Thanks a million guys :peace:

She looks like she still wants to grow! Might be a little early with the plain water IMHO.
 
OH TAY. I will feed for another week or so ? If I read right when the leaves start yellowing pretty steady that's when I want to start flushing, is that correct ? Yea it still seems to be hanging in there and not to much yellowing yet. Thanks for stopping by and keeping this thing growing. I am stoked at the difference between this grow and my first.
 
Day 95 got to be close

well I am pretty sure I have some sort of nute issue, but it is so late in the game I am not sure if I should sweat it or just get ready to pluck it ?
on 9-23 I gave her a buffet of, 1 tsp molasses, 1 tsp epsome, FFTB and FFBB. to a gallon of pH 6.7. then on 9-28 I gave her some FFTB, then plain water the 30th and again today plain water. But I have a lot of small new leaves that just seem to be dried and just falling off. also a lot of rust color around the edges since last week. Well again I hope these pics can tell you more than I can. I can not lie I have not checked pH run off for a few weeks now. To Skeered. anyway I am thinking of flushing for the rest of this week, but if she looks like she will last another week I will let her go ONE MORE WEEK, and harvest her on the 12th.
As bad as it might look to some of you more experienced growers, I am still kinda pleased. the pics do not do the cola bud justice, it is like a dang club and some of those side buds are 4 to 6 inches long and pretty phat. And smells oh so good. So tell me what you think please. :peace:

PS: The lil one is a week. I guess I will have another FF trip.

I'm far from an experienced grower but with that many white pistils I would think it still has some swelling to do. At least take a sample, quick dry and try it before cutting it all down. I would have personally let it go a bit longer just to make sure it's done putting on weight.
