No it is not the GA pheno. the guy that i got her from he bought two 5 packs of the Apollo 13 BX from the tude. he flowered them all out and gave me the one that stretched the least. reason he called it the Short Pheno.
This girl still stretches like mad though. lol.
@OGPlatinum

Test Plant
This girl i ran with ONLY FF Grow and FF TigerBloom. I also put Great White into the soil when i mixed up the soil, but didnt add any more GW.
She finished quicker then the rest, but was smaller everywhere else. She displayed signs of NPK dificancies after 6 weeks two weeks sooner then the others in the garden.
Here she is.
And stripped down quick by hand in bout 10mins flat. I think im getting good at it.
But tommorrow i pick up my DI water, and ill remover her from her square pot and put her into a round larger bucket and fill with water. I will then shut the lights off on her for around 72Hrs. then she will get the Chop chop eru.
She kinda likes it in there.
Shes in the coat closet so i can keep her dark for that long of a period. lol. even using the mop to keep her upright. lol.

Good shit S i R! I ran a similar kind of base test crop last year. I flowered out 6 girls using nothing but tap water from seed. Ok thats a lie, they got the left overs from my real crop like 3 times early on before they were in 12/12, but nothin once they were in flower. Also treated with azamax. Anyways, long story short they were under a few 2 foot t5s in a small cabinet maybe 2x2x2 at most and i pulled a few ounces off of them all together when it was done. Tasty stuff! like licorice. they were all bag seed so i have no idea what strain. All gone now, but it was good stuff with $0 in fert cost, and maybe $20 in power. the rates where I am are stupid. .40 kWh. . . . I don't even know why I grow indoors sometimes.
ok sorry that was a bit off topic, back to what Dr.D said about flooding, I am curious to, is this just regular flushing with excess runoff a few times before harvest? or is this some crazy new shit to get it done in half the time with better results? tell us more!

TY everyone. I really like how she has turned out.
Wait till u see the big girls....LOL.
I know i was sorta vauge about the tech. im using in this flush. I also know that the high ups dont like tags leading off THC farmer, so if a mod feels it neccesary to edit my tag feel free. If there is no link then just google "Riddleme Truth about Flushing" otherwise here is the link.

Nope haha, i live in the most expensive power district in all of cali. Central coast where I am gets grouped into the area with santa barbara and other very wealthy coast communities, so they can charge w/e they want and the wealthy people and us poor college kids gotta pay it. The real rates are as follows: .11 for baseline use, around 300kwh in the winter and around 200kwh in the summer. So that covers my regular house power usage (not the grow room) plus maybe a few of my fans and pumps and what not if we are lucky. Next tier is at .18 per kWh for power use between 100% and 130%, so that covers some more fans and maybe a few of the flouros in my veg closet. Next tier is from 130%-200% and that goes for .27 per Kwh, this covers the rest of my veg closet power usage. And finally, anything over 200% (of the original 300kwh baseline) is charged at .40 per kWh! so basically i have 2x 1000 watts and my A/C (about 2300w) running all at .40 per kWh. My estimated power bill once this garage is running at full power is somewhere between $600-700 a month, just for the grow room bill. like I said, sometimes i wonder why i grow indoors, but then i remember that i don't have a place to grow outdoors right now, and i can't just stop growing. . . i love it too much. keep all this in mind when you pay your next power bill and i bet you will laugh at how cheap u are getting it.

I feel ya
yo meeks i live on the central coast as well and my power bill is out of control. depending on what stage of growth i'm in i pay $700-$1,200 per month, and that's on the care program which knocks 20% off my bill. :mad0233:we get dinged hard for power here. with the way prices are looking lately the profit margin for an indoor grower on the central coast is grim at best. i clone like a madman for supplemental income to pay the bills and to keep doing what i'm doing, i'd rather not but i have no choice. next year i'll be putting up a greenhouse in hopes of making things a little more realistic.

I just decided.....
I'm glad i live in Michigan... For now atleast. LOL.
my last Ebill was........180$....
Anyone wanna come to Michigan? My offer still stands. lol.
Peace,
S i R
EDIT: I just want to add that... Yes we pay less for electric, but.... There are also NO Jobs, and nothing but corn and soybeans for miles. Yeah if i drive 30 mins im standing at the shore of the largest body of fresh water in the world... so that is cool. and the dunes are awsome, but... again if electric here was that much no one would have power...Literally. 400$ a week at a regular ole job is considered good pay out here. lol. seriously.

The Bowl Test
I plucked a good sized bud from the plant in the closet. I let it dry for a day, and then put it into the little shelf size toaster oven on the lowest setting for 30 mins. Then i put the bud into a grinder and then put it into the bowl, put flame to it, and inhaled......
No throat tingle, No bad taste, AND i got RIPPED off my ass!
Now when the bowl was done i looked down at it and the Ash was white as snow.
Now remember this was done before the Flood... Yes i decreased my plants nutes to 400PPMs this last week, but i still wouldnt call that a FLush.
More proof down in the books that flushing is a technique used more for leaching the soil and root mass of extra nutes, but does very little to help with taste or the throat tingles.
My gear is top of the line smooth and potent and i was able to run nutes on her all the way till i turned the light out on her.
I cannot wait to taste it once its cured... Hello DANK!
Final taste and smoothness, in my opinion, is not obtained soly by flushing the plant the last weeks of its life cycle, but by knowing what the plant needs and by using its storages of nutrients slowly and efficiently.
I was always under the impresion that u got the smooth smoke from the flush, but now i am seeing different. Remeber this is my 2nd solo harvest as well.
Always learning and perfecting the tech.
