What's going on everyone?
Just wanted to stop by and give everyone and update...
Things are going pretty well with the Sensi Seeds Skunk #1 and Sensi NL Auto. The girls are in 5 gal buckets with
OF w/ perilite and vermiculite mix. The Skunks have been flowering now for about 2 1/2 weeks, and the NL's are just beginning to flower, they took a lot longer to mature but are very bushy. During veg I used, Big Bloom, Grow Big, AN Voodoo Juice and Piranha, AN's B-52, and also a few feedings of General Organics BioRoot which has been doing wonderful. For preflowering, I began using small doses of Open Sesame, which did in fact produce a ton of bud sites all over the Skunks, the NL's just got their first feeding of the stuff. Now that I have began flowering the Skunks, I have been using AN Sensi Bloom 2 part. For the first week of real flowering they got another dose of Open Sesame along with Voodoo Juice and Piranha. They have been getting Bud Candy and Rhino Skin as well. Last week I began them on the AN Big Bud, which for a week of use, is seeming to show pretty good results so far. I will begin using Nirvana from AN next week as well, then switch to OverDrive with a VERY VERY light feeding of Cha Ching once a week the last two to three weeks of flower. I have done a lot of experimenting this grow with nutes, trying to get my system down pat, and am having very good results. A lot of people hate on AN, but I have to say they have been producing good results for me so far. I can see roots in the drain holes of the 5 gal buckets on two of the plants. I feed very lightly, (around 400ppm), but my schedule is feed-feed-water(no NPK additives). They are really starting to drink up the water too, they have to get some moisture every other day, that second day they are bone dry. The Skunks are taller and lanky, but the NL's a VERY bushy, and beginning to outgrow my 5'x4' area, which could be a problem in the near future. I may have to add another light (70w hps or something) at the end of the room where not much light is reaching. The Skunks have an impressive amount of trichomes for only being 2 1/2 weeks into flowering, did I mention they are extremely pungent as well! For being so early into flowering, they are very stinky. Had to install a PHAT carbon filter and some ONA, along with 3 tubs of Damp Rid with activated charcoal in it, which actually works really well for being $4.00.
Anyways... here are the pics, please let me know what you guys think and if you guys have any advice on how to manage my area better, I did not anticipate some of these girls getting so bushy. The Skunks aren't bad, but the NL's are as wide as they are tall... Please give me some feedback guys I would really appreciate it! Thanks for all of the help and for taking the time to check out my log!!

Please let me know what you guys think, I would really appreciate it. If you see anything I can do better or any advice on how to manage these big girls I would really appreciate that as well, let me know what you guys think and if you have any questions, please fire away! Worried about light penetrartion on the bushy NL's though, hope it does not become a problem, but the Skunks should def finish before the NL's so hopefully they'll get some alone time the last few weeks to bulk up! Thanks again for reading guys, please give me some feedback and advice for my first auto grow! Thanks again!
