i got "the doctor" seed for free when i bought some other seeds earlier this year. its the re-release of this strain. i think the genetics are fine. i found some pollen sacks on my plant but i think i stressed it out. when i finally bought a ppm/ec meter, i found out how much i was overfeeding it...
this is the only plant from green housre seed company that ive grown. i also have 1 of their jack herer seeds and a 5 pack of colored seeds from them. not sure when ill do another grow though.

You should be flushing with plain water

isnt there debate about flushing organic soils? ive been using sweet with my flushes but i ran out.I follow the ff schedule pretty much and the last two weeks give them plenty carbs and R.O. i dont really flush hard just pour until a good bit of water comes out the holes.

Not in my opinion. Even with organic nutrients the smoke can be kinda harsh without a solid flush. The whole point is to devoid the plant of nutrients so that it uses the stored up nutrients in it's leaves and what not. There by creating a smoother smoke.
I never use anything the last 2 weeks. Only water. But I give them a BIG flush at the very beginning of that.

That's not flushing though. That's watering without nutes. Flushing is when you DRENCH the pot. In a 5-gallon container, you'll want to use anywhere from 15-25 gallons to flush. 3-5 Gallons of pure RO water to each gallon in the container.
-------------------- My best run so far

ya i pay for R O water so that would cost me some money to flush lol havent had a problem with taste at all i stop using nutes so either way i think the n p k are gone. it says on the ff schedule to flush w sledgehammer and big bloom so i dont think those low level organic ferts hurt much.

im just flushing before i switch from beastie bloomz to cha ching so theres nothing left over. the pH of my RO when it comes out is about 8.0 so i dont really think its the best idea to just use plain RO. adjusting the pH seems like the thing to do.
when i get to my last 10 days, should i flush with my 8.0pH RO water, or drop the pH to 5.5-6??? am i missing something?

You always adjust the pH. When people say plain water, it's assumed that you check the pH.

flushed both of them with ph 6.0 RO water then new nutrient solution. no more flora gro, and switched from beastie bloomz to cha ching.
ph 5.8 EC 1.7
both plants are sucking up nutrients and water like a mofo. this is amazing. the kush is fucked up from something. i dont know, looks like calcium, but idk, im not gonna worry. the doc is fuckin AMAZING!!! its starting to smell really fruity.

changed the nutrient solution today, and started thinking about harvest dates. i need to buy a microscope so i can look at the trichomes. i'm going to go look for one today. might resort to getting it online. if anyone knows of any good ones PM me!
so the TNT kush isn't lookin so good. i'm doing what i can but i have no idea. the doctor on the other hand is insanely healthy and gigantic. i didnt expect it to get that big. i'm going to harvest the TNT kush on day 55/56 to get that out of the way, and focus the one 400w light on the doctor for her remaining days. i'll harvest the doctor around day 63 unless the trichomes say otherwise.

Very awesome plants, I actually had the same brown spot problem with the TNT kush early in the veg growth as well, weird. And for the shroomies haha that's awesome as well, I actually just inoculated a bag a few days ago. Showing some mycelium growth.

just got done harvesting the TNT kush. got it hanging up now. i've got mason jars on hand so in a few days when they feel ready i'll start curing.
ordered a 12 pack of 5x Power Butane and a 7" long 1" wide glass BHO extractor. still waiting for them to arrive.
i think ill harvest the doctor later this week, maybe this weekend sometime.
