That sounds like a pretty solid plan to me.

Hey all!
Quick little update after last feeding.
It has been a couple of days now since I gave her the last flushing to correct the pH issue, and I believe she reacted fine to it.
She has been growing a little, starting to spread out a little, not just growing in a tiny ball like she's been doing for a little while now.
And that is good!
I did remove some of the larger leaves today. Needed to clear out some air, was getting a little to "air tight" down there for my liking.
So I went ahead and cleared it out a little, and removed some of that growth that will never get any light (what would have turned in to some underdeveloped popcorn buds).
I still left some of the larger leaves, figured I will take them later on. Didn't want to stress her to much, just enough to clear out a little and make room for some nice airflow.
I also got that old digital camera working. So from now on I'll be taking pictures with that instead of my phone.
Here you can see how I've removed some leaves, making room for some air. You can also see the two large leaves I left behind (far left and far right).
I'll take them next week.
Here's a picture of the little lady under the light. She's looking happy and fine. Still a few light spots here and there, but I believe that to be "old" marks since it's on the larger leaves.
Here's just a picture to show you how she's placed under the light. The reason I did this is because I believe some of the leaves have "edges" like she has been heat stressed.
But I can't figure out how. Nothing major though. It's just strange with a CFL and all.
And here's just a picture to end this weeks updates.
What do you guys think? Am I right to assume I'm out of the "pH issue nightmare"?
She's looking better over all, and she's growing every day. She is getting a little lighter in color, so I'll try and give her a light dose of nutrients next feeding.
When do you guys start with the Molasses? I've used it during vegetative state before, but someone recently told me it was a waste and that I should wait for flowering.
What's your verdict?
Hope you're all having a good week.
Peace and love!

If the GSC I tried a while back is the same that I'm growing now, then I can tell you I liked it, wife calls it a happy stone, and not a couch lock.

Looking good! Ya, I'd give her a light dose of Nutes, basing food, water, etc. off of how the plant responds, is way better than some stringent nute schedule, in my opinion!
I use molasses the entire grow now. Reason being, is that it feeds the microbes. Also has some trace minerals in it, my understanding at least. Different opinions on that one for sure, though.
I'm no scientist, but I grew buds bigger than quart mason jars this last grow, doing that, so I will continue to feed mine Molasses the whole grow. If it is really expensive where your at/ hard to get, then you can wait till flowering and be just fine.

You did perfect man. You are out of he ph nightmare and your plant looks very happy. That leaves getting concave it’s just the way the plant looks when it’s stretching for light. Means the leaves are hard at work. We call it “praying to the lightâ€

If they only new what is possible with one plant...
Granted you got to have the space for it, and the right strain....

For your viewing pleasure.
Don't no body feel bad, I ain't never grown anything quite like these myself, but cool as heck to see!!

Don't ask me why there is a picture of bud rot on the link, that only happens some of the time with big colas. Oh, and might want to get mighty baked before watching, can be hard to follow, like he smokes a LOT of weed, Lol!

Hey all!
Been a hectic last week, so I didn't have the time to pop on here and post pictures and so forth.
But I took pictures during last week, and during this week. So I'll keep you up to speed nonetheless
I'll start with last weekend
I moved her to a larger pot (3 gallon) on Saturday (November 17th). Since her new space was bigger I had to add more soil, which turned out to cause some issues with the pH again.
But this time I was prepared for it, so I kept an close eye on the whole thing.
I also watered her with some carefully measured feeding water (due to my expectations of the pH turning bad again) to counter the effects of the low pH.
So I mixed 3 liters (0,8 gallon) of water, pH'ed to 7.0 and mixed with 50ml BioWorm, 3ml CalMag, 1.5ml BioThrive Grow and 1.5 teaspoons of Molasses.
The runoff still came out just shy of pH 6.0. So I figured I've done all I could, and left here to fend for her self for a little while.
Here's the quite happy looking gal in her new home (24 hours after the transplant) and after I gave her a shaving and trimmed away some of the bushy growth covering up much needed space.
But only 24 hours after moving here she started to look a little worse. The same symptoms as last time, with the lighter colors between the veins etc.
(the black spots are soil which got spilled when moving here, and I didn't manage to get it all cleaned up).
And that brings us to today (November 24th).
After a week with peace and quiet, she's grown a bit and don't look to bad for a girl living in a "sour" environment.
I watered her with regulated feeding water again today, only a little less then last time.
I mixed 2 liters (0.53 gallon) of water with 50ml BioWorm, 2ml CalMag, 1ml Biothrive Grow and 1 teaspoon of Molasses.
The feeding water was pH'ed to 7.0 and came out at 6.5 - 7.0, which is perfect.
Here's the little fighter
I let her dry up really good, to prevent root rot, since I gave her so much water last feeding. So she looks a little dry, but still happy.
And here you can see the discoloring of her veins, but I can't say that it has spread anywhere else, and only the "older" lower growth looks affected.
I don't take this to hard, and I'm looking forward for her progress the coming weeks.
BUT THERE'S MORE!
Today when I poked my head in I could see a few hairs showing! So she's showing her gender for sure now, and almost everything is ready for me to switch the light.
I'm only waiting for the pH issue to get a little more stable before I do so. Don't want to start of the flowering with bad pH.
So all in all this has been a good week. She's looking good, all things considered, and there's plenty of space for her to stretch and grown from now until Christmas.
So here's a couple of pictures to end this weeks update.
Hope you're all having a good day, and that you didn't blow all your money on the Black Friday sales yesterday. I did a killing buying Christmas presents though, and feel quite happy with this years Christmas preparations.
I'll be back later today, so feel free to come with some feedback on this weeks events.
Peace and love!

Thank you guys! She's a real fighter this one. Hopefully she will show her Hulk strength when producing trichomes and flowers. Sometimes stress can do that. One can only hope.
farmerjim this is my second round with the Aurora Indica. First round came out great, even after having to cut the flowering short due to some real life complications. Great smoke. Makes me sleep like a baby!
starramus Maybe I'll take some clones. I have all the equipment for it. Might need to buy a dome, but those are quite cheap. I'm just not that skilled at it. Hehe!

Thanks! Really appreciate you saying that.
I put a lot of effort into my updates, and for every picture I post, I take at least 4.
And I want to create something useful, both for me and whom ever would find my log and read it.
So I'm glad you're enjoying it. Puts a smile on my face.

Man she's lookin' good Cocho! I think your spot on with your plan, to. Get her doin' real good, and flip her, gonna be a little tight with head room, but I'm sure you'll pull it off nicely.
I'm not very good at cloning either, but there is only one way to get better at it! Take a couple cuttings if you do. Sometimes you can make a dome out of stuff food came in, like the clear plastic containers salad greens are sometimes shipped in, sanitize first in case they have mold spores or pests on the plastic. If you could get your hands on a cfl or two, you could probably come up with a temporary home for the next generation of AI, once you flip the mother to flowering, and need the longer light cycle.
Cheers brother!
