Well @Entombed suggested the old school mango haze to me. I am new to sativa dominant strains. I’ve always been into heavy indica highs… now that I’ve gotten older and more tired I’m moving into sativa’s & and still growing indica of course.
The mango haze is up against an unfair competition with the Apollo haze as it’s a freaky beast, but I look forward to both of them.
Now I’m in crunch time with a drying spot. I just ordered a cheap tent for drying. The real issue is temps for the dry. But I’m thinking of setting up the dry tent right under a A/C vent and maybe putting a 10 in fan in between the vent and tent to possibly cool it down a little more. We will see what happens

Good luck with the drying. Not sure where you are located, but lots of peeps have been experiencing dangerously high temperatures lately. We are lucky here, so far, but I expect that the fire season will get interesting before fall kicks in. Good luck with the grow, you should do well with those genetics. I would stick to coco if I were you, it works well, and consistently, once you get it dialed. I started with coco and tried pretty much everything other than full hydro, and now I am back to coco. Organic can be simpler if everything goes peachy perfect, but good luck correcting any difficulties that come up. If you can handle the hands on monitoring of PH and PPM/EC, coco is really effective, and dead easy to adjust nutes for if needed.
All just my two cents though, others here love their organic grows just as much as I prefer coco. Different strokes eh.
By the way, if you have not spent some time on Cocoforcannabis.com, I recommend that you do, there is a lot of excellent information there.

Def more than 3wks. But those are looking fire! Expect plants in coco in autopots to take a little longer than the breeders recommended date. They veg and flower a little longer but that’s where those huge yields come from. I’m not talking a lot longer , just 2-3 wks usually.

@elderweeder I’m in Colorado. Temps haven’t been to bad yet this summer. It would seem the state is on fire so I’m sure the heat is coming.

@KingRatt well I’m patient enough to let them do their thing till the time is right. I’m pretty happy with the way the plants are growing. Way better than the first run lol
You all have helped me out and it is appreciated

Week 10:
So been over feeding. Had to flush the coco which was a massive PIA. With the buds all up in the SGROG netting I had to leave the autopots in place and flush a little at a time and suck up the water from the bottom over and over. Starting to get some rust spots so I’ve increased calmag from 4 ml to 6 ml we will see if that works. The Apollo Haze is stacking its kola up. The old school mango haze is slowly doing what it does.
Been fighting humidity as well. Only solution was to unzip the tent a bit and increase the exhaust fan. Seems go to go now

Yeah, hopefully a little nutrient reset will keep them on track. The roots are going to start taking up a lot of space inside the pot so the nute/salt/water balance is going to be a little different during late flower. Looking good though, lots of colas.
You’re gonna be needing the machete to get that jungle chopped.

@entomed lol I am an Arnistador so I’m pretty skilled with a machete. Hopefully the flush will get them back on track. There are stacking up either way
Thank you for all your help

Well I must be messing something up. I was taught that purple was from cold
don’t know what if that is true or not. This old school mango haze is looking messed up. I’m getting rust spots on both plants so the increased amount of calmag isn’t fixing them. I decided that perhaps it was wind burn of sorts. I changed the direction of the top fan inside the tent. I was kind of neglecting the tent this week. While dealing with all the outdoor girls, so there is that
