I have run chemo x og kush, 6 candidates. The 4 chemo dom plants would show mad preflowers under any stress or feeling rootbound in the least. She looks like she was maybe a little stressed judging by the structure. Chemo seems to want to feel rootbound. She look good though.
I found that 1 gallon of medium per 1 oz of projected yield seems to not be enough for chemo dom specimens I ran. They would preflower like that and stall in veg, it is hard trying to fill up a screen w/a chemo cross. But it is worth it.
My mom's preflowering tendency seems to come when she does not have enough healthy root mass to support the amount of foliage she has. I am hoping that a
smart pot-type gig will help with that.
I think there is a good possibility that feeding the rootmass w/a topdrip, instead of letting the roots find the water and doing the work, will maybe inhibit this preflowering tendency.
I get these preflowers eventually, no matter what, under 24 hours of light with my selected chemo x og mom.
An interesting thing I saw on a chemo diary on MNS recently is that the dude has chemo males under 24 hours light with straight male clusters on males. But no pollen in bananas.
That healthy green spine on your leaves? I think that is an artifact of sufficient calcium.
When I have lacked cal in flower, the green spine shrinks back to just a little at the root of the leaf, cal defs show up, and she loses a lot of her characteristic smell and her potency. And yield.
She regresses hella quick to 1 and 3 bladed leaves that lack the perfect serrated form we are used to seeing, under any sort of perceived stress. Almost like the leaves of a recently revegged plant. She is particular about some things. She is such a challenge.
Dude chemo crosses are the way. Wait til you smoke that shit if you have not already. It only took me 6 chemo cross females to find the strongest weed I have ever smoked.
Thanks Mr. VMPC for posting up your chemo porn.
Thanks Mota, for working with chemo.
She has more potential to heal (via inflammation reduction primarily I think) than any other strain I have tried.
