Some money shots from the 2 girls. I want to say they're getting close but it's hard to tell with the bright leds. Week 9 will start on Sunday.

The Apparition seedling got a bigger home. Gave it some recharge and put it in a 1 gal pot with ocean forest and perlite.

Official week 9 pics. I could stay in the grow all day. The colors, the smells... so nice.
Very close to chop I think. I see 90% cloudy and maybe 5% amber. The other 5% are either not all cloudy or are clear. I'd say this week some time will be chop day. Then the gorilla lemon fire plant goes into the flowering tent.

Awesome stuff mate, great reward for hard work. And I hear ya, if I didn't have a lady and baby to think about I'd basically live in the grow 😅
Thanks! Can't wait to try it.

Same here, man! Got kids, wife, and a life upstairs but I do love hanging out with my plants. I'm definitely changing the time of day the dark cycle starts so I can have more nighttime with them when I have more personal time. Luckily my lady likes the plants too so she doesn't get too jealous hahaha.

I found on my 18/6 light cycle I spent to much of the evening messing with plants so made some adjustments so my lights go out at 7PM now that I am on 12/12

Yeah I just sort of accidentally chose 6pm to 6am, mainly because it will get real hot here real quick. This grow will be done by the height of summer, but at that stage we will be getting 90+ most days and some nights won't drop below 80. Would be crazy to have lights on during the day. Works out well, if I'm at work no point having lights on when I can't go hang with them hehe. Working with them is as relaxing as the medicine they produce. Just gotta get these girls through another 4 weeks or so. Will be watching how you tackle drying and curing but you've smashed it so far.

Hah I did the same thing and also adjusted my light cycle to 6am-6pm. I think maybe 9am-9pm might be the happy middle ground where I'm not rushed but also can't spent too much late night time with them either.

Thanks, man!
6-6 worked ok for me but I work until 5 so I was pretty rushed to do stuff in the grow before the lights went out. Checking all the trichombs got real hairy towards the end here. Glad I only have 1 plant to check now instead of 2. It makes drying a little harder though since I can't hang the chopped plant in the tent. I had it in there this morning but have since moved it out because I read it should be drying in a dark place. Trying not to over think drying but I don't want to mess it up either! I got my jars and boveda 62% packs ready to go.

Yeah mate exact same I'm going jars with 62% pack. I'm in the same boat that I only have the 4x4 and want to stay perpetual. I've got 5 clones of one of my girls all shooting out roots. I'm going to veg them outside, if that plant ends up good I will run those next, so I can leave them outside through summer to veg as long as I like. Can use the tent to dry then pick the best 2 or 3 clones depending on size at that point and throw them straight into flower. Otherwise it's onto hangers in the wardrobe in the spare room hehe. Walking a fine line between growing fire and avoiding divorce 😅

Perpetual grow is the way to go for me too. I borrowed a light from a buddy who had a spare so I've been vegging a clone for months and will put it in the tent once this round is done. I really need a 2nd tent but I've only had my setup since July so I'm going to wait another few months before I get more stuff. Walking that fine line indeed!! Haha. This first grow will pay for all the setup so there's always that silver lining!

Exactly right. Hopefully will pay for my new grow light to take next grow to another level.

The wife surprised me with a 100x lense for my smart phone. It's works pretty well too! Gets a bit closer than the 60x loupe and it's much much easier to take a pic. Need a steady hand though which I'll have to get better at.
Getting near the end of week 9 for the 2nd plant. Starting to see a few amber trichs here and there.

I chopped the other plant this past Friday night so grow 1 is almost in the books... or bong for that matter... hah.
On to the gorilla lemon fire clone. She's got what I think is some light bleaching on the top from the blurple light I had her under for a long time. I'm going to grow it out a bit and try to get her 100% green again before flowering.

This 2nd pic is some fuzzy roots from a clone from the glf. I hit it with some recharge a couple weeks ago and it's cool to see the fungi going to work feeding and growing this plant!
