Lol...if I had not sweet talked her into a 10 pack of Satori last month I might have gotten in on the Xmas deal. I mentioned the great Xmas special to her and then got reminded about saying I would not ask to buy any more beans till spring 2013.

hahaha. i made my first purchase at the beginning of october. she's like, "you didnt even grow all the seeds yet, from the the first time you bought seeds"

i'm just like "I GET 12 SEEDS FOR ORDERING 5, THERES NO WAY I'M PASSING THIS UP"

then she proceeds to roll her eyes and walk away.


anyway, back to the seeds. i took one look at the "shouthern lights". thought to myself, "i gotta have these". i know its a pain in the butt waiting for sativa's to finish. this one is 14+ weeks, but once i get multiple strains rolling. i will be running perpetual grows so wont be much of an issue.

i wanted to order more, but i spent all my money on the kids for Christmas lol

ahh man lots to do tonight. mounted my fan above my light, thinking the plants would never reach 5'. these girls are reallllllly stretching. so now i have to take the fan down and put it on the floor. good thing i bought extra ducting. i thought NL was supposed to be a short bushy plant. clearly seedman seeds do not have stable genetics

 

[ShOrTbUs]

looking like its gonna be a very merry christmas :icon_smile:

"Northern Lights distinctly shows its Afghani indica genetic background, it is a small plant that produces, big highly resinous flowers." - seedsman seed bank(from the attitude site)

i put my plants in fowering almost 5 weeks ago. the 2 plants were measuring just under 3' tall, after a 6 week veg period. this past week the highest cola is sitting at 6' tall. small plant my ***. i had to supercrop the highest shoots b/c i was running out of room. it looks like they're going to produce well. they just got way bigger then i would have imagined.

 

[ShOrTbUs]

attitude site said 8-14 weeks. the 2 plants that i'm flowering out are deff different pheno's. the smaller one (4' tall) is deff going to finish faster prolly 9 -10 weeks. it looks as though the larger girl (6' tall) is going to go the distance at 14 weeks. her buds aren't nearly as developed as the smaller of the 2.

pic 1 & 2 are close up's of the smaller pheno.

pic 3 is my attempt at a canopy shot. i have to break out the step ladder just to get this pic.

i'm not overly impressed with seedsman NL, they're very sativa-ish, in that they got entirely too tall and stretched way to much when put into flowering. next go round i think i'll try sensi seeds NL genetics. sensi claims their NL is a cross from NL#2 & NL #5

 

[Sin inc]

you know what i wad just about to say that the plants look like their leaning toward sativa side.thats not right is it?

 

[ShOrTbUs]

the 3rd pic in the 68days update is me standing on a step ladder, holding the camera above my head. the plants are in an 18 gal tote thats about 16" high + the plants themselves are 5' & 6'+ tall. all that stretch with only a 5week veg period. i'm not upset, its just not what i was expecting. i haven't been able to move the tote for 4 weeks now. so i just pump old nutes out, fresh water in, and let it sit for an hour. then pump that water out & new water back in with the nutes mixed into it.

when i looked into the history of NL. i always thought the idea was to have a heavily indica dominant hybrid. a short bushy plant, with a high bud to leaf ratio. i had an extremely hard time cloning this strain as well. i went 0 for 30. could not get a single one to root. it was a humbling experience to say the least. since my first 3 attempts at cloning were such a success. going 8 for 8 using RR plugs, 16 out of 22 in a DIY bubble cloner, & 8 out of 11 in the cloner again.
