No thank you bro, let me know how the smoke treats ya. I wouldn't be surprised to see more of these popping up with more people running them. I don't know how many plants I've had now with the bonus leaf, but no bonus buds have popped up. Your's is the first I've seen out of those or the DDB's.
Will do mac. That little bud is very interesting. I have seen it before on other strains but first time experiencing it personally. Really cool stuff ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Got my eye on this one. Structure is very uniform, consistent 9 and 11 bladers.

Tallest and most robust out of the 4 sisters. Several smells at this point - lemon with a hint of oldskool leaded gasoline and a purple sweet tart back end.

SAS #3 - got my eye on this one. Bud sites popping up all over with big reaching 9 bladers. Koosh ball main crown. Its not even getting direct light and it's killing the others in its shared tote home.

Tall ASS #2 reaching past a hooded CMH

20200102_222255_ass2.jpg
ASS #2 Sleek and spider like

ASS #2 - Interesting structure and 4-corner positioning of calyxes

ASS #4

20200102_222401_ass4.jpg
SAS #4 - a bit hard to see but very interesting bud stacking pattern. Typically for at least the main stalk, I see 2 main nugs at a node, one on either side of the stalk. This plant has 3 nugs stacking up on the same stem coming off of the main stalk up and down the plant.

No obvious smells yet other than skunk but I can tell it's coming soon.

This one was runty 2 weeks ago. Gave her new digs right next to the bare bulb CMH and catching the basking warm glow of HPS...

...a room with a premium view. She's catching up REALLY quick.

Thank you! No doubt you'll fare well with this one if you are into loud lemon terps and huge colas.
...I strongly concur. Loud lemon with the beefiest and tightest stacking colas out of all the plants at the moment. Keep in mind these are in roughly 1/2 gal pots.

Time to start with some Liquid Koolbloom. I've had bad luck with PK boosters of different kinds in relation to lockouts. I am taking the less is more approach and being conservative with it.

As for smells, think of all the citrus you can all mixed into one and take a big whiff. I get a bit more specific in HydroRed's thread.

Is there such a thing as praying too much (or too hard)? Not too bad of leaf taco-ing. The one in the far left corner is taco-ing just as hard as the one directly under the light. Seems like a "typical" pray ๐ŸŒฎ leaf but more of an intense "reach for the skies" kinda thing going on.

Playing with a camera I got for free. Thought it was broken, but all I did was pull off the dented lense bezel to allow the zoom lense to extend out, and here we are.

Definitely different than using a phone. There is going to be a learning curve on how to properly use even the main features. Not a DSLR but is only a couple of years old and has lots of cool options. However, I already dislike not being able to put a memo or change the filename on the fly for quick referencing. Even if I could, there is no touchscreen or keyboard so it would be very time consuming to cursor over the keyboard alphabet one letter at a time, just as bad as flip phone texting. With multiple plants and a few angles from each plant, it's gonna be impossible to stay organized unless I write down the file name and comments on paper and update accordingly. Maybe I'm missing something here.

That's what I do when I take so many pictures for the large updates. I just write down on a piece of paper who it is, and how many pics throughout the entire photo shoot.

For instance.

BA1 (3), BA2 (4), GP1 (4), GP2 (6), GP3 (3), etc.

Then I download them to my computer and reference the paper to label them all on the laptop. Maybe there's a more efficient way, but for not being very technically savvy, that's what I figured out works for me.

Those new pics with the camera look awesome @spyralout
