well, i was gonna post up a pic of my LA Conf x Skunk, but it looks like the only picture I have in your time frame is from when they were topped around day 29 lol.

A few plants were showing signs of cal/mag deficiency this morning. I know this is a common deficiency when growing in coco, but its the first time I'm seeing it. I plan on feeding a double dose of calmag+ and cannazym + rhizo while backing off on A+B nutes, about 700ppm total with 300 coming from the calmag.

Doh, well I'm probably going to leave mine un-topped and seeded, so they probably won't look like relatives anyways

I clipped the two lowest nodes on each plant today, they are about to explode with new growth and I want it to be vertical.
The 8 chosen ones (day 25 veg):
The 6 outcasts (7< days flowering):
 I might have made a mistake with the LA Conf on the bottom right, if it turns out to be a male I will save the pollen.

They are looking much healthier after the calmag feeding:
I'm going to transplant them to 3-gallon pots this week and will begin flowering as soon as my last G13 Haze crop finishes:

Awesome pictures. I like the tent shot. Very clean and organized.
I just germinated a few of the G13 Haze x Mango's. They were very vigorous and quick to get out of the seed shell. I'm stoked to see what happens with that cross.

Thanks bro. That greenhouse frame + 55w led is working out really nicely, I want to surround the 600w with them stadium style for maximum efficiency. I waste so much HPS light right now off on the sides its not even funny, but I'm trying to be better.

Those are looking spot on I'm digging it. You can start to see nuances of differences in leaf shape and whatnot now. Eager to see what you will have in a couple weeks. I will stay tuned in.

Them new ones are looking mighty fine if you ask me. Can't wait to see this progress.
Thank You for the advice in my other thread. I think that just might be the answer that I was looking for.

Picture update. It has been an interesting few days...
The Sleestack x Skunk has way more sativa in it than I realized. What I first thought was ca/mg deficiency was actually N toxicity and I should have caught that earlier looking back at pictures. I'll have to feed them @ 50% for a while and always on a separate nute regimen from the other strains.
I've also developed a shitload of algae on my 1" perlite layer. I know its not doing any harm but I'm perplexed as to how it happened...I'm fucking OCD when it comes to keeping trays dry, never over-watering, etc. First and last experiment topping pots with perlite, man.
I put another Kushberry and OG #18 into flowering, so the mom/dad pool is now down to 6:
I should be able to sex most of these soon:

add a few drops of Peroxide to your water. might help with the algae

I would if I was in a proper hydro setup and had algae in the res, but this stuff will be gone in a couple days when I transplant. It just annoys me really. Also since peroxide doesn't discriminate, it kills the beneficial as well as the harmful micro-organisms. I pay too much for my rhizo to do that right now
Hydrogen peroxide also *causes* cancer when added to cigarettes, another reason I keep it away from my crop. I'm not lying: http://www.physorg.com/news123408747.html

Updated pics.

I'm using a single 120w LED kept 20-22 inches above the canopy. It took me a long time to find this LED's sweet spot, and I really had to abandon CFL/HID best practices to do it. Conventional wisdom would tell you to hang LEDs as close to the canopy as possible, which is fucking close since they generate very little heat, but 20" keeps tighter internodes and just plain outgrows 2". It must have something to do with LEDs bulbs being so directional + the different color spectrums needing space to meld or something.

Looking good man. I've noticed that the LA's can take it pretty heavy, and after the last dose of nutes I've given to the KB's, I'm pretty sure they can handle a good amount of food as well. Can't wait to see the flowering results

Thanks. Yours are looking great too, don't know if I posted in your thread lately but I've been following and saw the new pics today.
I've noticed the same thing with the KB, but wasn't sure about the LA so thanks that is a big help. Don't know if you saw my note about Sleestack but that is very nute sensitive, even for a sativa dom.
I fed a mild 300ppm A/B + rhizo + double dose of cannazym after potting up today. Going to re-pot the Sleestack tomorrow and top them all off with more hydroton (I ran out).

Thanks for the tip about the sleestack's. That's the strain I'll be growing next so I'll be keeping that in mind.

I made some changes to my flowering tent this weekend. I always check out the storage racks at home depot and this time they had a new model that immediately caught my eye. Like I was saying last week I want to do a tiered stadium style layout but the $20 greenhouse frames were not going to cut it. If you've read my previous grows you know my tent frame sags pretty badly. Well there was a 3" gap between the top of this new storage rack and the top of my tent, so I wedged some bricks of coir in there and the tent is totally stable again. I was also able to get my carbon filter off the ground (I hated that) and eliminate two bends in the ducting, a major odor/ventilation improvement.
The layout still needs some tweaking and I need a couple more shelves, but it should be a badass tent when its done.

Pics always turn out shitty when the lamp is on but I keep on taking them and keep on posting them, it must be the wake and bakes. Here is a proper pic:
So out of the 8 skunk plants on the left that didn't meet my breeding criteria, 7 are confirmed females, haha. I've trimmed 4-5 nodes off the bottom of each since I want some big sog colas and plan to flower in the small pots.
And I know its a skunk grow so I apologize in advance for the wide angle shots, but those are my last G13 Haze plants ever and I feel like showing them off
More shots of the veg plants tomorrow.
