White Strawberry Skunk & Money Maker.....PowderFeeding

Recommended Posts

a week, I let it go too long without updating, I apologize but I had many commitments, I will try to fix it.

6 WSS arrived on the 11th day of flowering and showed some beautiful mustache (5/6) one is not defined yet.

the other 16 have just completed the first week with regime of 12 hours light and having been stimulated to flourish still immature not showed their sex, some of them show the edges of the leaves curved upward, 2 instead have the edges down (I think because of the proximity of the fan then due to excessive ventilation).

some show a slight pallor of the leaves, between two days'll increase the doses of fertilizers and try to figure out if it is a small deficiency.

only one of the WSS has remained small and does not seem to have been sown at the same time.

in the small box 24 beautiful White Rhino are in their 18th day of life and the effect of the use of MH 400W from the beginning is doing all the difference.

the plants are perfectly corresponding to the genetic characteristics and the strong mostly Indica one can see, very low plants with large leaves and internodes collected, have a nice green color and seem to like the actual conditions of life, certainly in a few days the little box will not be longer able to host it, I wish I could still keep the plants in the vegetative stage for at least a week and bring them to bloom mature (25-30days old) without growing too and are manageable in the flowering room in the next 2 months.

here are some photos.

ciao.

new update:

6 WSS arrived on the 19th day of flowering and are starting to form the first flowers, tomorrow I will start to cut the lower branches of some of the plants x foster the development of those most exposed.

15 WSS arrived on the 8th day of flowering, some of them have already shown their female, I removed 1 plant that had been too small compared to the others and 1 plant I moved next to the White Rhino because she was too low compared at 2 heights that I have right now in the cultivation of WSS.

larger plants are about 60cm high. from ground smaller approximately 40cm. from the ground.

I watered 2 times this week only alternating water and 1gr/lt of Powdefeeding for hybrid plants.

minimum temperature 18 ° RH 48%

maximum temperature 28 ° RH 64%

next to the WSS were transferred from 3 days 24 White Rhino.

to 24 plants that have vegetated 22 days from birth before start flowering I joined WSS 1 of the same size of WR

I irrigated with 1ml/lt of Fructus and 1ml/lt of Floridus line Gaia

  • 2 weeks later...

update on the 32nd day of flowering for WSS of the first 21 days of sowing and flowering for WSS of the 2nd sowing.

unfortunately I have problems with my back and I was stuck in bed for a week and have not yet healed.

a friend has offered to help me during these days and the cultivation is going well.

are not in possession of pictures but I can indicate recent fertilization that goes on with 1gr/lt of PF for hybrid plants.

soon as I can put the photos.

the new generation of WSS is showing with similar characteristics to the plant that I have grown but some plants show more distant internodes and have grown up over 100/120cm the highest I practiced the crop.

ciao, I hope in better shape ......

thanks Dust.

After another day of rest are back in good condition.

I made ​​a new cleaning of the lower parts of the plants and given alternately at PF only water with the addition of unrefined cane sugar, 200g of sugar in 30l of water.

I have practiced many crop for uniformity in the height of the plants.

Now the whole area of ​​WSS has a height of about 90 cm from the ground.

the more mature WSS have completed the 5th week of flowering last Friday, the others arrived at the 4th week.

the distinctive aroma of this strain is becoming stronger and invades the grow room.

the scent is very pleasant and flowery, the older plants begin to show a certain resin production.

perhaps the cultivation is located slightly behind the times that I expected and I think that will serve at least 9 weeks of flowering x to complete the cycle.

some plants have begun to darken the hair but the size of the flowers are still very limited and appearance that swell from day to day.

near in the area of ​​White Rhino I made the first selection of the branches that will carry on in bloom.

I took a few cuts and put 3 to root talee, is the first time I try with the production of talee hopefully take root.

temperature 18/28

RH 52% -64%

ciao

yes a little genetic "problem" most of the time it doesn't change anything, but sometimes the WR with those leaves can make a few banana so keep your eyes open, but usually they don't.. but still it's better to watch ;)

Nice healthy strong leaves tho

i'll get a look as usual.....the smell of the WSS is strong and i love it,they became to produce resins,some of them shows leaves more larges and are the same that the leaves are clearer than the rest of plants,those plants have flowers like little balls,the other fenotype shows leaves darker,thinner,a stronger structure of plant,more scent of their flowers,the flowers have a more elongated shape.....

Yesterday I sprayed 5 liters of solution with Success against thrips and in the dark I made a foliar feeding with 3lt solution with K-Equiseto for preventive action to support the plants against molds.

Unfortunately, even though we are in May and although I am in Italy, humidity, due to continuous rains, continues to create problems RH inside a grow with maximum 72% and minimum 48% during the night.

I'll try to get some air from inside the house and shut the passive inputs from the outside, I hope that indoor air is less humid.

ciaoooo!

the filling of the external inputs has led to an improvement in the maximum RH which fell to 62% have also increased the amount of salts dehumidifying.

Unfortunately, I still found the thrips live under the leaves, after 2 treatments every 4/5 days, this time I sprayed in 5 liters of water twice the dosage of Success by Bayer and I sprayed with the extractor off, I started after 1 hour.

I absolutely have to eliminate these beasts, the WSS are now in bloom and although advanced and with the attack of the leaves from the bottom I should finish flowering without damage, but the White Rhino have yet to develop flowers and may be subject to considerable damage.

Unfortunately, I suffer a lot of the external conditions of high RH living in the country and many sources of infestation are in close contact with the cultivation, I dedicate myself to gardening and grow of visit friends who live in the area and this further increases the chances of a pathogen spores, insects, that unlike the cultivation in the city occurring much more frequently.

plants consume a frightening amount of fluid, which then transpired and help the UR to get up ...... I can not give minor amounts of water, the plants are read after only 2 days earlier on irrigation instead of giving 50lt solution I gave 100lt Total for cultivation, I have given both from top and bottom

T. maximum is 28 ° and the minimum is 20 °.

soon with new photos .... ciaoooo

Thanks for the news and good luck with your humidity

I began to use (for more control and learn to use them to make that tool required) EC meter and PH meter.

I measured ph and ec demineralized water and then I dissolved a pinch of soil drawn from the goal 'logically from the edge of the pot (the soil was wet his then channeled to 2 days ago had not yet been absorbed at all) I .... mixed well and after about 1 minute mix by hand I measured again PH and EC .... well ...

soil in the pots in which I have just sown ..... PH unchanged 7 before 7 after 0:22 ... EC initial 0.70 final correct ... the fact that it rose and correct the value of 0.70 of the soil seed without having given anything just water.

soil of WSS (5th and 6th week of flowering, Gaia for all (i've stopped with Powderfeeding)) the basic values ​​are always the same and the final ones are: PH 6.4 (lower soil seed) and EC to 1.29.

soil of W.R. PH 5.5 EC 1.78 .....

from what 'I infer that the WSS ate and maybe I can try to increase ......... for WR I would say to wait to give even fert and the prox only irrigated water .... I may be wrong '??

I wish I had a better idea of ​​what but it 's hard to understand ...

I took the dosage of 1.5 g/lt of Gaia Fructus+1,5gr/lt of Gaia Floridus .....le plants they liked and extremely normal values ​​confirm this.

here are some pictures from last night.

ciaoooo

I forgot, I treated still cultivate with a massive dose of Success by Bayer, I have doubled the dose and I concentrated 10ml of product in only 5 lt of water, I treated the plants three days ago and the next day I checked and thrips were finally dead.

I hope they do not show up anymore.

the problem RH can not be solved, it continues to rain and external conditions will not improve before the middle of June, I hope not to have new molds.

hello to all updated photo

47th day of flowering for 6 WSS

43rd day of flowering to 15 WSS

24th day of flowering to 24 W.R.

T.29 ° -19 °

U.R.62% -47%

now for about 10 days not use PowderFeeding, I changed with bio fertilizers of Gaia to try to bring the plants at the end with aromas to me more welcome.

unfortunately I could not cultivation in the last to download plants from residual salts and the result was not pleasant to the taste, the power of smoke is not in question but the taste is not very pleasant remained even after a month of tannage.

irrigating in the last 2 I have given a massive dose of Fructus and Floridusthe last efforts to support in the development of the flowers, but from the next I mean watered begin to give only water hoping for 2-3 weeks to clean up the plants and obtain a final product that allows me to enjoy the unique flavor of this strain.

resin production increases and I have to continually lower peaks rebels throughout the cultivation, I managed to get a canopy rather uniform and dense enough peaks at about 80-100 cm from the ground.

next to the WSS 24 W.R. grow well and even with them, I am forced to perform the continuous crop tops that are now also uniform between 80-100 cm from the ground.

the diet of W.R. was from the beginning based on Gaia and in the last irrigating I gave the same standard of fert to the whole cultivation,only some of W.R. have undergone the high content of fertilizers, it is only 2 plants siluppate less than the other and thus less capable of absorbing nutes, nothing serious, however, the next will be irrigated water alone even for the WR

here is picture of the situation.

ciaooooooo!

updating to 49 days of flowering for 6 WSS, 45 days for other WSS 15 and 26th day for 24 White Rhino.

the situation of older plants is good, continue to mature the flowers that grow in size and are covered with resin, some plants have leaves looking "velvety", others have very dark leaves and shiny, while others have cleared the leaves and almost seem to pale in all instances the timing of maturation I think that will be longer than the 8-9 weeks scheduled for the end of the cycle.

tomorrow the WSS irrigated with water only ph 6 and WR instead receive a solution with 1.5 g / l of Floridus and 1.5 g / l of Fructus.

the W.R. have finished their Elongation, buttons and start to produce inflorescences, also beginning to smell like citrus.

the WSS instead scent of strawberry and flowers and just a little bit of citrus.

here's the situation, sorry for the poor quality of the photos.

ciaooo

update on the 56th day of flowering for 6 WSS; 52nd day for 15 other WSS.

plants are flush for more than a week, some have begun to take substances from the leaves that are further spells, while others seem not to notice the passing of time and are still dark and full of nutes.

one of the plants the "triple" (the plant has developed 3 branches at each internode) is wonderful and has developed an the apical impressive in size, especially when compared with the average size of the cultivation of flowers.

resin production and 'good, the fragrance is sweet and floral, feels more than all the strawberry scent and taste that I have had the pleasure of doing, confirms the persistence of aroma even in the smoke.

I intend to wait before collecting the first plants I put out to dry 3 peaks collected from 3 different plants that showed different features.

next to the WSS 24 W.R. arrived at the 5th week of flowering and are in perfect shape.

short requires thinning foliage in excess the top of the plants in order to improve air circulation and exhibit better the flowers that are swelling.

you can clearly see a significant production of resin Whitening peaks.

the plants are fed with 35lt of water with 1.5 gr / lt of fructus and 1.5 gr / lt of floridus every 4 days.
