Inkdot's Tangerine Dream Grow In Soil - LED/CFL

[Inkdot]

Looking good. So are those 2700k CFL bulbs?

How much weight are you expecting to harvest roughly from these two?

Mine are a similar size now and will be going into 12/12 this weekend I think My strain is known to stay very short so don't expect much stretching during 12/12.

I have two 65W CFLs, one 2700K and one 6300K

I have no idea on yield. If i get 40 g good trimmed bud I'll be happy.

For my strain, even if they don't look like it they are supposed to be very sativa dominant. A cross of G13 Haze and Nevilles A5 Haze. I expect the height to double after flowering sets in and it still hasen't. So hopefully I estimated the timing and growth right so that they won't come too near the lights or outgrow the room.

The bushy one stretched an incredible amount tonight, so hopefully the flowering starts soon.

Looking really good. We started our 12/12 on the same date. Mine also started to stretch a little, but now it seems to be focousing on new growth. Hell, i'm still hoping for a young lady lol. Anyways, your grow is looking great. Keep it up

Short update

Day 28 since seed popped, day 4 of 12/12. Still no preflowers.

Here is the mandatory overview. Good amount of stretching on for the big plant in the air pot.

Closeup of the smaller plant. The intervenal chlorosis seems to be getting better. I think she liked the flush with pH:ed water. You can see some deformities on the small back leaves on some of the fan leaves. Look at the fan leaf on the very bottom of this picture and you will see it. I think this is a genetic flaw because it's reoccurring only on the back set of leaves.

Thank you easy. Same here, I'm starting to see the very first sign of pre flowers but no sex showing yet... To small to take a picture yet. I guess next update will be when I know sex within the next week hopefully.

So how long have you been in 12/12 for?

I just switched today, mine are growing like crazy, running out of space!

 

[Inkdot]

Still a bit early to tell for sure but I think both are females!

i got my fingers crossed for

 

[Inkdot]

Still no definite on the sex although I'm very confident.

I changed the setup of the wires and power stips. Meanwhile I let the plants get some real sunlight for the first time! I had to take a few pictures.

Here is the new setup, much cleaner. Removed the big power strip from the roof and put it down at the bottom.

The growth has slowed down quite a bit. Maybie they are finally changing into flower mode?

Looking great mate very similar to mine, just a week or two ahead into flowering so I'll be watching this very carefully

 

[Buckshot]

I am really bad at keeping up ... but I am glad I stopped in and will try to stop in, in the future

They look very happy

Today I count as the official first day of flowering!




Small calyxes and little white hairs are showing up on all the grow tips of the big topped plant. The smaller untopped one is a bit behind in maturity but she still has a quite a few female preflowers at the internodes. Both are female! I hope no hermies!

10 weeks flowering time means I'll probably harvest on the last day of september for 74 days flowering total.

Thank you everyone who follows my journal. It's much more fun if I know someone is looking at my shitty cellphone pictures hehe!

Congrats on the girls!! They're looking good. Oh and if you have been using your camera phone to take these pics, 2 thumbs up. All of your pics have been clear as hell. i use my phone also. Pics always seem to come out better. Happy flowering.

Hey Inkdot man,
Subbed mate, hope the dreaded TD work for you mate, all looking good though.

One thing i'l say mate, take a look back at my TD at start of flower, the tops were the same as that first flowering pic. new leaves are yellow and skinny. With my TD that was an Iron deff which some Ionic Boost sorted out. TD is also nute sensitive so dont over do it.

Day 3 of flowering, grand picture update

Hey JBC, yeah I'll def take care with the nutrients. I'm adding a few ml of Biobizz bioheaven each time I water that contains iron and other metals. BTW don't you think my phenos of TD look more indica then yours?


Today I did something I never really done before, I chopped some fan leaves. Then I ate them with some orange juice because I heard it's healthy. Now I'm feeling oddly relaxed... Very strange, but I haven't smoked in a few weeks so my sensitivity should be high

Anyway here is the classical overlook for comparison.

And some other pictures!

Untill next time. Peace!

very nice mate, them plants look very healthy

 

[Easeedoesit]

Looking good! Can't wait to see the end result

Hey guys appreciate the support!

I decided to cut three more fan leaves. This time on the topped plant. The leaves I cut pointed inwards towards the center of the plant. Now a lot more bud sites are exposed. I don't like cutting leaves because the plants store nutrients in them but in this case do you think I made the right call?

Compare it to this from my earlier post.

Hello bluplanetsmkr!

to mate!

Best of luck on your first grow. What are you growing?

 

[Easeedoesit]

That's looks good. Don't think it'll hurt her too bad (even if at all). You look like you really thought it out according to pics. Thumbs all the way up!!
