Lighting Royal Queen: bluematic

fattening up nicely VG. and that pup? too cute. I had an Aussie. she wanted to herd everything, lol. cow's sheep, cats. dogs,kids. did not matter. she kept them all corralled.

His name is Toby and he is Hanna's (female 1.5yr Aussie) new boy toy. I have two shelties but Hanna was herding them crazy.

Day 48 and I have included a pic (second pic) of a bluematic at 48 days in a 5gal airpot vs 3gal airpot. On Tuesday she got a gallon of 10ml bambe at 6.4 and today she got 2 gallons of 6ml/gal cal/mag. I will give this plant its' last feeding this weekend and one more shot of bembe next week before the cleaning starts. Harvest will be on day 63 or 64, the trics now are mostly milky with about 25% clear. I am getting a harshness to my herb and I think it comes from not enough cleaning and drying too quickly. There is no chem taste but something isn't right so I will back-off on the nutes a bit and go back to hang drying instead of bag drying to see if that helps. The bembe is new for me so I am trying it out on something I know well. I have been treating my grows as a job instead of a hobby lately and taking some short-cuts.

Day 50 and she got 2 gallons of 15ml big bloom, 5ml tiger bloom, 10ml microbrew and 1/8tsp cha-ching at 6.4ph with about 2/3 of the second gallon being run-off at about 6.6ph. Something must be better because the wife could smell the plant as soon as I took it out of the tent to feed. Plenty of white pistols still coming out and the buds seem fuller than last time (see last pic). I have my 2016 seed order in and next blue will be MoC blue domina this spring. Still no sign of any amber trics but I expect that to change soon.

Not much change to see but the trics are still mostly milky with more pistols to come. Today she got a gallon of 10ml bembe at 6.3ph and some trimming of interior leaves. I will clean with sledgehammer and follow with clean water sometime this week.

At last, some amber showing in the branch buds. The main cola has had some amber trics for several days, now most buds are where I like them. Today she got a gallon of 10ml sledgehammer followed by a gallon of plain water, all at 6.5ph. Harvest is planned for the 18-19 of this month. The buds by then should be mostly milky and about 25% amber.
