2014 Indoor - DWC - CFL - Unknown Seed

Thanks mate! I noticed that now stems are not stretching anymore for few last days, it's buds who are growing longer :) Anyway they will grow even more for week at least, till real buds will form. Hoping that they will fit in this box :lot-o-toke:

ive got a pretty tight grow also mate ,just hit week 5 flower every one is in position on the scrog not an inch of light height left
and i have a bud at the rear growing past the back of the lamps i cant even reach in to arrest it lol
light is 1 inch at the closest point to the grow and no more going up!!lol
 
I am so glad that i'm using cfls, hps would be a total pain in the ass in such small space :)
Last week my plant have eaten almost 14 liters of water/nutes, i have succeeded in regulating feeding and avoiding nute overdoses, this is most important.
Today i gave her only tap water with FloraKleen, minu flush will be done till tomorrow.
Some first very small trichomes appeared, plant is going to start developing buds. With trichomes, some new scent appeared - it is yet very weak, but i feel like there are some orangey or lemony scent, will see later, what it will become when stronger. I think that if this will be it, known that it's sativa dominant and when real colors of buds will appear - it will be possible to guess what strain it is, at least what genes this plant has. It would be good to know, what kind of buds have grown here, just for curiosity :)

In last few days i noticed this

Have read some forums, some people are saying that it's even good, others - that it's a deficiency, at general - it seems that it's PK deficiency. Now i'm sitting and thinking whether i should add PK or leave as it is. Maybe somebody with more practice could give me some advice?
 
LST em as you wish, man! It is very important to form bush well. Yes, i do use a scrog - see that plastic net in bottom of the plant - i have bended many branches under that net, without it this plant simply would not fit in my box :) And yes, these are pipe cleaners, it is perfect for our purposes :)

what have you noticed?? red petioles? if so this can be a trait of the strain.
ive had heaps of strains do it and i know they were def not
pk deficient
 
67 day / 36 day of 12/12

Flowering is going good, buds are forming and many sugar leaves have grown everywhere. Plant is drinking a little more than 1.5l per day. This week i decided not to change nutes in reservoir, just added fresh water with 1/6 of recommended amount of nutes. Understood that nute makers are giving too big recommendations, it's fully enaugh to use just half of them. It is good, nutes will last longer, no need to buy anything at least for 2 grows more for me :)
Tried to smoke some fresh small fan leaves cutted directly from buds - man i did love it! Smoke is not ugly like from bigger leaves which i did not smoke anyway. Active high for at least half an hour, munchies and everything is in place. Really good pain relief, positive mood - this is just what i want.
Will make additional side lighting in weekend with LED stripes, just to give bottom buds more light. In week or two top buds will fatten even more, so light penetration will become totally weak.
Smell is very strong, air filter is not removing it all while at full extraction, it is good that it's still summer and good room ventilation is helping. It would not be possible to grow this strain at winter time for sure (it's up to -30 outside in winter in my country)
SO much for today, here are few photos of my baby :)

What do you mean by labor intensive, man? If it is about complexity and labor taking - no, it's basically simple diy dwc with air pump and two airstones, only it has pH monitor for continuous monitoring and mini water pump inside for draining and better mixing of nutes when adding. Dwc itself takes from me not more than a minute per day, and some more time once a week, when changing nutes. I cannot imagine any simplyer method of growing, man :) And i always know what my plant is getting and what it wants :)
 
71 day, 40 day of 12/12, 4th week of flowering is ending

Yesterday added supplemental led lighting to bottom buds and removed all last leaves, which were planned from much earlier. This ends defoliation process, no more training will be needed for sure also. Plant now can flower without any disturbance and stress. When looked to fresh removed leaves in daylight, noticed that some signs of yellowing appeared, so now i know exactly how much nutes she need (last week it was only feeded with water everyday and one time received 1/6 of nutes with feeding). Tomorrow small flush will be done, after that optimal nutes will be added and this way i will try to keep her to the end. It will be hard to only feed her and not to do something else for this long of time :) I think that it's more than 6-7 weeks for flowering are ahead... :)
