GeneGenie's Nev's Skunk Test 09

Looking good so far,man. I found these are heavy feeders. Mine just exploded when I potted them up in veg and put them under the 400watter. I'm like you, I usually don't top my seed plants. Now clones are a different story. Keep up the good work. Gatorbait
 
Nev's Skunk- Day 42

Just thought I'd post a few pics and give a little update.

This pic is 10 Nev's Skunk, 4 Congo Haze, 4 Cannaloupe haze x ? and 6 Purple wreck.
Out of 10, I have 5 males and 2 other maybe males, but the 3 girls showed some pistels at the start of the week so I took cuts from them and I'll put them into the room with their mums as soon as they root, to take up the space left by all the males.The one on the bottom right is Nightshade from Barneys.

I don't think the male on the left is a haze pheno, more afghan/ skunk look to him, he's the smallest of the lot too, coming in at nearly 12 inches.
His brother on the right looks like he has a bit more haze in him, but I don't know how he's smelling yet as my nose is blocked the last few daze.

All pretty similar in height, smallest is just under a foot and the biggest is just over 15 inches.

hi genegenie

Great grow, really well presented

I have also some Neville's skunk, i will post a report too

I already grow some neville'haze hybrids and i have to confess that the nevile's skunk are really indica, i was a litlle disapointed first cuz neville haze is my godess but i have already a lot of sativas in my closet so it's gonna be fine... it seems the afghan/skunk side is really dominant

I really like how your NS stay stight and get a lot of side branching :)

I really like the foliar spray too, do you know the website supergrow ? they sell a lot of great products and it's really cheap like the Kelp which is the main component of the phytamin (cytokinins,auxines,trace elements) they sell also a product with a lot of bacteria, trichoderma and mycorhizes , it replaces easily the scorpion/tarentula/piranha/carboload from AN to almost nothing for the price

Hope you won't believe i am advertising :p

Good vibes
 
Cheers for the good words Locoporo,

I'd be really interested to see how the Nev's Skunk finished out for you, if you have any pictures then start a little thread and post them up mate:)

I've been looking forward to a nice sativa bud after growing indica/sativa plants for so long, but by the sound of your report these might not be as sativa as I'd hoped.
How many seeds did you pop when you grew them out?
I originally had 20 but managed to kill 10 at the start:mad:, so I'm gonna order another pack from Shanti and grow them out to try and get a better look at what it has to offer.

I think the reason I've managed to get them to stay small and produce lots of side branches is the light mover I'm using. It enables me to have the lights really close to the plants, 4 inches/10cm for 400w and 8 inches/20cm for 600w bulbs, because of this they've no need to stretch.
Also as it runs along the track the plants get light from lots of different angles, which promotes those lovely side branches:)
I really love light movers and can't understand why everyone else doesn't use them too:confused:

I'll keep an eye out for your thread and check out supergrow too, thanks
Peace GG
 
HI GG :)

I didn't want to confuse you, i'am growing currently NS and they are more litlle than yours but i have alredy grew some neville haze hybrids and my plants of NS have not the "sativattitude", i can say that cuz i get some pure columbian nearby and some celestial which is a peru/ecuador cross ,sweetskunk and others sativas...

I have currently 5 NS in my room and no one respond to my criterias of sativa, first leaves is good clue , my remark was also about your NS which are really beautiful but the structure of a little christmas tree from the afghan skunk is recognizable

Of course i have not finished these yet ;) but hope for you a hazy phéno

your explanation about the light mover and the side branching is really interesting (especially the fact that you can put the light really close and have a good penetration of light) ,to respond you not everybody have the place for a light mover cuz it's not really efficient in a 1m² room but of course if i had more place i will do it

i will post a thread to show u that

Good vibes
 
Nev's Skunk Cutz

I took 2 cuts from each of my 10 Nev's Skunk on Saturady and stuck them in my aero cloner under 2 x24 watt purple fluoro's. I added 3ml a litre of Canna Rhizotonic and then put the water to 6.5 ph.

I used Clonex when taking them too, so I hope to see some roots by friday if all goes to plan.

Nev's Skunk Day 50- Day 1 of Flower

Hello everyone,

Time for an update.
Out of the 10 Nev's Sk I've been growing, I've ended up with only 3 females It's luck of the draw with seeds and this time I was just unlucky. Gatorbait got 1 male from 10 over on his Nev's Sk test run, but that's life

0001_10.JPG

The girls I'm left with are looking really good though,all just over 20 inches tall and nice and healthy.

This is 'O' she was the mutant that I posted about earlier in the thread, her main stem split into 2 stems at about 4 weeks for no apparent reason, but her growth rate has been nearly as good as her sisters and she now has 2 main branches. Nice skunky afghan aroma from her when you rub the stem, ''smells like rhubarb'' according to a friend.
0002_8.JPG


This is 'A' she looks sort of Sk/Haze I think and has a really funky skunky smell after a rub.
0003_6.JPG


Last but not least is 'J' definitely the most hazey looking of the 3 and she smells it too. She seems the most sensitive to higher nutes so far, with a little bit of tip burn just before she went into flower, but I'd upped the nutes to full strength( 2ml of Bio Vega per litre) for the last 7 - 10 days of veg because the pots were so small.
0004_6.JPG



I dumped the 20 cuttings I took from the 10 Nev's Sk last week as 70% were male. Took more from all the females that went into flower and will hold these back as mums for future runs, all which will be posted up on MNS.

I also have 2 cuts from each of the 3 girls in flower as they showed pre flowers about 10 days ago. The roots have popped out from the rockwool cubes over the last day or two, so I'll put them into the flowering room beside their mums and see how they grow.
They'll probably end up alot smaller than the mums but with should finish about the same time.

I'll update during the week as these will no doubt explode in size over the next few daze!
Peace GG
 
Nev's Skunk- Day 8 of Flowering

What's up people?
Here's my 3 girls after a week in flower.
0001_2.JPG

I decided to tie the main stem of them down so they could fill out the space around them and not stretch up as much.
0003_21.JPG

Looking nice and healthy and smelling pretty damn good when you give them a rub. I've been feeding them 1ml of Bio-Vega and 1ml of Bio Flores since they've started flowering and will keep this up till the start of the 3rd week, then I'll start to feed Bio-flores and Bio Boost at 2-3ml a litre.

Since the second week of veg I've also being foliar spraying weekly, alternating between Fish mix(Bio Bizz) one week and a seaweed based spray(Rhizotonic, Maxicrop etc) the next. I'll keep this up till the buds start to form.
0002_21.JPG

I'll take some pic's next time with the hps off, as the glare from these pics ain't great.
The cuts I put in my aero cloner last week all had roots showing within 5 days, but since it turned out most of them were male I ditched them and then took some more cuts from all the plants just before they went into flower. I used rockwool this time and again most rooted in 5 days using just clonex and soaking the cubes in Rhizotonic.
Peace GG
 
They looks nice ! Why 3rd plant dont have light ? Is that plant formations just for picture making or you flow them like that for real ?

Cant wait to see buds !
 
Hey Blizzout,

I'm using a Jupiter light mover(kit2), so that's why the light is in that position in the picture.
Peace GG
 
Nev's Skunk -Day 14 of Flowering

Hi everybody,
Things are starting to grow nicely over here now. My 3 girls have really started to stretch up and fill out now and the smell ain't too bad either, starting to get hazet now.
0002_9.JPG

The 2 branches sticking their heads in at the bottom of the pic are Purple wreck(Reserva Prada Seeds), which have started to put on buds a bit quicker than the Nev's Sk due to the indica background of the PW.
The Nev's are super healthy though and as they stretch they're producing lots of budding sites all along the branches.
0001_13.JPG

If your planning to grow this strain outdoors or in an indoor set up with vertical lighting you could end up with some big trees by the looks of things, definitely a haze influence in this strains growth rates. I'd recommend training this plant in some way to prevent it from growing too big in a standard indoor set up though.
0001_11.JPG

You can see on this photo the main stem of the plant on the left of the picture. I tied her down to the side of the tray she's in and this allowed all her side branches to grow up towards the light, which gives a more even profile and restricts the overall height of the plant.
0001_14.JPG

The plant on the left in this photo is the 'mutant' that I mentioned earlier in the thread, she'd split into 2 stems at the 5 or 6th node but it's worked out for the better it seems as she's quite bushier than her 2 sisters now, with a lovely haze aroma coming from her.
 
Nev's Skunk- Day14 of Flowering

Here's a few more pic's of the so called mutant and as you can see it defo has a haze look to it.
0003_7.JPG

I've upped their feed to 3 ml a litre of Bio-Flores and 4ml of Bio-Boost, along with 2ml of AN Big Bud for it's magnesium content and because I noticed the Bio-Flores wasn't providing enough P for my girls in early flower.They get this feed with every watering and it seems to be working well so far.
0001_15.JPG

A bit of leaf burn on this one where the light was too close to the plant, I llike to keep the light as close to the plant as I can but with the growth rates of these girls, if I don't raise the light a little bit each day then that is what can happen.
0002_10.JPG

This photo and the last one remind me of some of the hazey type plants I've seen grown by L33t over on some of his threads in the MNS strain base, seeing those threads were some of the reasons I started posting grow logs online,to help others grow strains their thinking about growing, so to have similar looking plants in my grow makes me pretty proud!

0001_12.JPG

2 weeks into flower and we've got some nice little bud formations happening already, small bit of trich development going on too but you can't make it out from this picture.

I'll post some more next weekend when no doubt they will have grown a bit more,

Peace GG
 
HI GG

beautiful plants

This plant has a great hazy influence, i like the thinny leaves :)

You have found a great pheno wich mix well the 2 parents and maybe even more the neville haze side ...

How is the smell of this plant when you rub the stems and the trunk ?

Mine smell really pungent, skunky, a powerful odor which leans more to the afghan/skunk ( i was used to grow the mazar (afghan/skunk) and it reminds me this odor)

One little question,why do you use already the bigbud (yes i read to supply Mg and P) which is more a fertilizer of middle-end of flowering but do you know this rule ??? (this for a 70 days strains )

+/- 15 days of flowering: 2P=K to make the budsites which require a lot of P
+-35 days of flowering :P=K like a pk13-14 to form the structure of the bud
+-50 Days of flowering P=2K like hammerhead of AN to fullfill calyxes, two other elements which are benefits are vit B6 and magnesium...

There are even some growers who flush a first time with a solution with only organic K before to rinse with water ... that makes rockhard budz

Just a comment , there is a different way of growing for every grower :D

Good vibes to you
 
hi there gg

let me just say WOW:) they look fantastic

keep up the super work
 
Nev's Skunk Day 22 of Flowering

How's everyone doing?
I'm stuck for time so I'll just put up some pics now and post some info tomorrow.

P.s- Hey Herb and Loco,
Cheers for dropping in !
 
Looking great genegenie.

Thanks for the detailed grow log and really looking forward to watching those bud sites develop.
 
nice growing gg and the plants look great to mate.
i like how they,ve stretched a fair bit and have a good structure to them.
by the sounds of it they have a good balance from each parent,nice sativa looking and very skunky smelling.
hope mines look as good as yours
peace jaffaman
 
Nev's Skunk Day 30 of Flowering

A few more pics.
The big hazy girl on the left was involved in a mis-labelling incident that I've only recently noticed! I was flowering out a clone from her when 2 weeks into flower the cut started to show lots of male sacs!!!! turns out I've thrown the two cuts from the mum and now have 2 females and 1 male in my 'mother' room.

I'm gonna use the male cut that's in flower to pollinate the 3 girls and hopefully the big girl will pass on her genes in the f2's.
I'm having a battle with thrips during this crop, in every day trying to spray them out but their tough little buggers so the battle continues. As soon as the crop is over the room is getting pulled,so it's not too bad, but I'll be glad to get awy from them, little hoppy buggers are doing my head in!

Peace GG
