Hopefully everyone enjoyed their weekend.

Nice training on that gelato!
Glad to see that zSkit#1 recovered... how’s the second one doing? Wondering if it’s the genes/beans since it had troubles hatching to, no? For my own curiousity, how many PPM are in your nute mixture at this stage?

Thanks for the kind words.
Z#2 died at the paws of a neighborhood cat :-(
I have no idea if ppm or ph I'm using advanced nutrients ph perfect MGB at 50% recommend dosage. Last feed they got 12ml calmag, 26ml each m-g-b, 12 ml b52.

Darn, sorry for your loss! I wondered about the magpies & urban heirs for the outdoor growers around here but never took prowling felines into account ;)

Update day 35
hello everyone, how is everyone doing tonight?
Just finished watering/feeding the plants and setting up the inkbird controllers. They were thirsty tonight taking 5 whole gallons before I started getting any runoff.
Gelato (Elayne) is really starting to push out pistils everywhere. Even possibly some buds forming? When do I consider it to be fully "In Flower"

Northern lights (Min) is picking up speed and deffinately getting bigger. Whatever I thought I saw in regards to pistils on Min must have been my imagination because I cant find anything now.

Zkittles (Aviendha) is finally looking healthy and happy. Might get something good off it after all.
Also no sign of Pistils yet.

Aviendha has some huge fans on her. The biggest ones are bigger than my hands and I dont have small mitts lol
This one has 11 blades if you count the 2 teensy little ones at the bottom lol

The inkbird controllers were super easy to set up and seem to be doing what they were ment to do. Time will tell but from all accounts they are great tools and should be well worth the $90 cost.

Well that's all I've got for now. Thanks for dropping by.

Update day 39
Happy Saturday everyone.
Time for a weekend update.
All 3 are getting noticably bigger seemingly every time I check on them. The Inkbird controllers are doing their thing and are keeping my temperature and humidity levels right where I want them. I was having temperature issues the first day or 2 after setring up the controllers but realized that the prefilter sock thing on my extraction fans carbon filter was completely blocked up. Gave it a run through the wash and its all good again.
Here's what you all came here for, the pictures.

Gelato(Elayne)

Zkittles(Aviendha) no sign of pistils yet

Northern lights(Min)
Seeing a couple pistils on Min

Have a great weekend all

I love Promix. here is one of the Malawi twins, standing about 6.5" tall in 6th week of flowering in Promix. Happy Father's Day!

Its been awhile since I posted an update, sorry.

Update day 62

Gelato is still making solid gains. Not very stinky yet unless you start moving her around. Then she's got a citrusy, fruity, musty smell (no more warm garbage smell )

Zkittles has quit stretching which is good because I had to raise my lights again and now thinking I need to prop up Elayne a bit to get her back into the light more as she was happy with the closer light.
Check out the frost pushing out onto the fan leaves!!

Continued...

Update day 62 continued....

Northern lights has been looking unhappy but maybe not quite as unhappy. The newer growth is coming in nice and green.
Still not doing much in the way of flowering even tho she started showing pistils at least a week before Zkittles.
Fingers crossed get anything off NL

Have a knife day

Update day 67
Just a quick look into the tent as there's really not a whole lot of difference.
Group shot

Elayne is getting close. Think I'll leave her grow for another week and check the trich's then.

Aviendha is packing on the bud she is super frosty and has a nice piney/citrusy aroma hopefully she will bulk up nicely over the next few weeks.

Continued.....

Day 67 update continued....

Finally Min,
Looks like Min has pulled through. Think she has quit stretching and is finally getting some buds forming. I did some lolly popping to clear out all the larfy little stuff burried in the centre and to open it up for air flow/light penetration.

Looking a bit droopy but the lights had just come on.

Thanks for looking,
Have a knife day

Elayne(Gelato)'s trichomes

Some starting to amber up a bit but only on the very tops of the tallest colas. Will check again in a week or so

Nice plants!
Nice knife also. I'm assuming that's an etched blade, looks good.
Have you tried making "damascus" or patternweld type blades?
Is that a horn or bone handle?
I've always had a fondness for sharp things and sharpening knives myself.
I used to have to sharpen my fathers meat cutting knives back in the day.

Thanks Blood.
The blade on that one is "Tsunami" pattern weld damascus steel, the handle is stabilized old growth redwood burl

I just finished one with stainless damascus blade and wooly mammoth ivory scales. Very prety if I do say so myself :-)

I'm even more impressed after looking that stuff up.
Mammoth tooth scales are pretty neat!
And the Tsunami technique is impressive.

Nice work man. I can't wait to start my gelato. Nice work on the knife too! I collect handmade laguiole knives.

You have come a long way since your first post on using Promix! You did a great job and used restraint instead of going crazy on them. Things look great... let us know how you made out.
I'm also in the middle of chopping, a task I try to find an apprentice to accomplish. Unfortunately, no apprentices are available, just my tired bones.
