Here are the latest photo's. 38 days Veg in the grow room and 18 days on the seedlings. I did lose one of the Gelatos.

Ok, today I moved the three Autos to the grow room and left the two photoperiod Gelatos in the 3x3 tent. I have a new 4x8 tent arriving next week and I will be transferring the grow room to the new tent. Trying to figure out how best to use the two tents together to have a perpetual grow. If you have and ideas or comments, please advise.

The latest is that I am currently putting together my new 4x8 tent. For the most part it was fairly easy. Here is some photos. I will be transferring the lights, plants and other equipment today.

Here is the latest photo after doing my first trim in flower.
The 3 Peanut Butter Breath are going great. There were three Gelato auto's until I found out one was male. Now there are just 2 left that are female.

Here are the latest photos. 1/31/24 Everything is going great other than trying to keep my humidity correct.

These are the two autos. First time growing autos.

Today I moved the two Gelatos into the flower tent. Day 1 Flower.

I have not ran the Gelato Auto indoors, but I would say by the picture it could go another 2 weeks to finish flowering!!

Here are the latest pictures. Everything has been going like gangbusters. I cut one of the Gelato autos and maybe got 5 grams from it. Tasted delicious but am very disappointed. The other Gelato auto is still going at 4 weeks in flower.
The three PBB are doing fantastic. You can see the buds stacking up like crazy. They are 4 weeks, 3 days in flower.
The 2 Gelato photos are starting to bloom and are looking great as well. They are 1 week, 5 days in flower. So far I am very happy with the grow.
I have changed my watering to wait until I see a little droop in the leaves and lift each pot to check if they need water. I use nutrients at every watering. Before I would water every other day regardless and kept the coco damp all of the time. I started doing this after watching Kyle Kushman's videos on Youtube. He knows how to grow! I have noticed that the new way works better for me. I don't use nearly as much nutrients, use less water and can leave them alone for a longer period of time. However I do have cameras in each tent and I do check those regularly.
All comments/advice are welcomed.

Here are some early bud pics. 5 weeks flower.

 

[Lexstar66]

I'm looking at 3 to 5 more days. What do you think?

Hey Lex....it looks like you're looking at some sugar leaves trichomes......they will turn amber well before the calyxs do.....make sure you check upper and lower sites.....

 

[Lexstar66]

Well the three Peanut Butter Breath are done! Will be giving more details after I get them jarred up.

Going to be using this little gadget this run. So far it is working great, I like the fact that it vacuum seals the jar. Longer storage life? Don't know. We'll see. Anybody else have something similar?
