Somtimes those spontaneous sideline pops catch you off guard & end up being the bees knees. Fingers crossed these turn out that way.

The Chem ds I grew were so unique. It took awhile for the terps to come through after the dry & cure. But they taste heavily of bleach & antiseptic, with a strong skunk overtone that is black liquorice like. Haha it reminds me of these skunk sctach & sniff stickers I had in the 80s as a kid.

Good luck bro, don't be afraid to chuck a ton of calmag at them either
Cheers CHC, I fully appreciate the S1s can produce lower par phenos and some as you say we'll above par. Apart from the Sensi Star these are the first fems I've run in years, so wanted to pick genetics that had a chance of being fire. The ChemD S1s have a good rep so the plan is to progress through the pack as sideline fems grows as I explore the new NLxGF cross.

I've heard that some chem lines need a good cure, Guerilla Fume was definitely like that.

Thanks for the tips in the calmag, I've heard that lack of it can cause the varigation the D is famed for. Will be interesting to explore.

Thanks Pet G, took a while researching to work out which breeders have the real deal (so any Lucky Dog Seed Company for genuine Chem crosses and CSI also).

That was my experience with the Chem D & the calmag. The vargation was super obvious without it. As soon as I added large amounts it pretty much went away completely & the plants were much happier. I've heard notsodog say it's more the calcium than the magnesium. Either way the calmag helped a bunch. It's funny because I was listening to an interview with a guy (umami I think it was) who was cropping out OG Kush in the early 2000's and apparently calmag was the secret ingredient him & his crew used to bring out the best in the OG. They reckoned it just ate a ton & came out the best with regular calmag. Pretty hilarious given the meme calmag has kind of become these days right. Obviously it's no panacea... But the fact is some plants just love a shit ton of calmag. I've got a Dr who cut that's the same, looks like crap until you add it & it eats a lot of calmag too.

Ton's of growers will say calmag isn't necessary... Which is true sometimes... But not always, not in my experience anyways

I can second his observation with the OGs and cal-mag. The OGs I have going were getting standard strength to begin with and were always a little grumpy. I doubled it over a few days and they''ve been praying since, perfectly glossy leaves, the best shade you could ask for, and not a mark on them.

I've got so used to thinking it's something more complicated and nuanced that chucking some extra cal-mag in there was actually the last thing I thought of. Felt like my first grow all over again but it was just what they wanted.

That is really interesting, thank you both, especially as you say Cave, it's a bad word these days. Funny how trends work.

I heard that episode with Notso, I'm working my way through Breeders Syndicate 2.0 and its been a hive of info. That's what prompted me to get the Skelly from Nspecta.

Have to look into some oyster shell flour at least for the Calcium.

Mad to think you had to double the dose Nice Option, that would scare the shit out of me, a bold move!

Well I kept going on they kept looking better, been at the current dose for a while now and they're looking gorgeous.

I've upped it to what I've run plants in coco with RO, but they're getting tap in soil. It's not a huuuuuge amount, but double what i've given anything in a similar set up. Thinking back to some previous runs with 501st OG and Holy Grail Kush, it's probably what I needed to get them dialled in too. I'll likely be running a couple of these plants from clone again and will play around with it.

Minor update to mark the re potting.

Now in their final 13ltr Rainscience bags. This is the lazy stage, not much watering, just have to watch them grow now. They'll be vegging for about 6 weeks.

They are keeping the various cuts company of NF3, NF5, Sensi Star, Sunshine Daydream (male and female).

Thanks for checking them out.
