| Snow White was for me a dream to grow she did exactly what I needed her too. Short, high yeilding, great smoke, I used Oxyplus and Superthrive to start them of then ionic nutes starting at 1/4 strength going up to 3/4 strength, never needed full strength. Out of 10 seeds all popped but as time went on 2 kinda lagged behind but I kept them anyway just to see. I vegged for around 4 1/2 weeks until the 7th node then switched them to 12/12, they started out under fluoros and then to a 400w son-t. Out of the 8 best I got 4 male and 4 lovely ladies. They grew like crazy up and out like little Christmas trees and piled on the bud, masses of swollen calyxes and white hairs stretching out for pollen but there was none there as the males were long gone. They just kept on fattening up, crystaling was amazing they sparkled in the light. They went a full eight weeks until ready with some sampling along the way, it got better as they neared the 8th week, I also left 1 for a week more and it was more couchlock than the others. The 2 that lagged behind ended up vegging for 3 weeks longer then flowered and they turned out great a lot smaller than the others but perfectly formed and with even fatter buds , snow white will hopefully be in my garden for the foreseeable future due to clones I took and kept 2 back as moms. Happy growing.
Garden Information for this report My grow room is 5ft by 4ft and the system took up 1/2 of the room while the other 1/2 has tubblers with clones in. For this run with the Snow Whites I felt my autopot needed some tweaks and that’s what it got, DIY of course. I lifted the 8 pot autopot system about 6 in and connected it via a low level pipe to a res to add more volume of water to the system. Also so I could feed the plants from the top via a pump and some 1/2 in pipe every 2 to 3 hrs for 15 mins. I then used the smart valve from the autopots to maintain the water level in the res from a bigger res. The plants were started in 1in rockwool then to 3in then into perlite in 1 gallon pots. Then to sex at 7th node, the girls were then put in the system in the 3 gallon pots, lighting was c/fs to start then 400w hps and 600w hps in the last 4 weeks. Ventilation was 1 extractor fan and 1 oscillating fan. For me this worked great along with ionic nutes, canna pk13/14,oxyplus and a bit of time and care for those ladies |
