Death Star And A Little Gift From The Gods.

OldSmokie76 · Dec 2, 2017

This is gonna be my second documented grow. I'm currently finishing first grow. I'll figure out how to post the link for it later.

This run will be same soil mix. I'm gonna introduce Nectar for the Gods nutrients. I will be flowering four clones I took earlier this year. A little more attention to a few details this time around and hoping to have this grow nailed. I will implement a screen and some more attention to training to fill the 5x5x7 tent. Larger containers. And the entire flower schedule will be under the 1000w HPS this time. LED strictly for veg.

The clones are slightly older than a month now. (3wks to root) They're gonna chill 3 weeks under 18/6 LED for some training and veg growth. Once the flower tent is open, 12/12 flip. I'll get some pics up soon for progress.

So, the four in the corners are the Deathstar about a month old. Topped and few branches spread and tied down. That spindly light green girl in the middle is a Strawberry Cough that was just dropped off. She's a little stretched and suffering from malnutrition. Gonna toss her in the mix. Hopefully get a couple cuttings of her in the next few weeks to put in rotation.

This is the flower tent finishing up right now. First run. Not too shabby. Can't wait. Final days are upon us!

OldSmokie76 · Dec 13, 2017

Deathstar next for flower. Gonna get these girls trimmed up a little and placed under screen. The Strawberry Cough is making a come back too. Another week before flower tent open though, they getting big.

Things are getting a little overgrown again. One thing about caring for cannabis, you best be on your game and have a system in place cuz these bitches will grow. Lol. Flower tent is still occupied with some over dried harvest that I'm struggling to trim and jar up. I'm hoping to get these girls out and spaced nicely in the bigger tent soon. Take a few cuttings. Set up a screen and train them for a week or so before the flip. Happy New years farmers.

deathstar is some of the densest nugs I ever cured. I found a bean in a bag of it and have run an S1 of deathstar for years now
it has a lemon funk I cant get enough of

Nice. There is definitely a zest to this one. Just jarred up some of the mother of these cuttings. I think I let em get a bit crispy during the hang. Hopefully gonna rehydrate a little.

OldSmokie76 · Jan 6, 2018

Slacking hardcore. Trying to get it n gear. Resituating exhaust on the HPS and pulling the rest of the previous harvest outta the flower tent. Scared to see how overgrown these girls are. Crammed in the small tent and my slacker cracker ass has not been good. They're healthy, but it's a jungle in there. Lol. I'll get some individual pics up next day or so. We can all decided how to handle them before flower tent. They're looking to be about 20" tall so far.

It's a mad dash right now to finish cramming last harvest into sealed buckets and tubs awaiting trim. (I shoulda never grown so many for first go. I just got greedy. Lol.) As soon as the tent is cleared and wiped down I'm getting these in. Setting up HPS now with it's own ducting. Two days tops, they'll be stretching out in some new space.

OldSmokie76 · Jan 6, 2018

Well, I have 4 of these Deathstar and one Strawberry Cough. Thick and bushy on the DS. Super stretched and bushy on the SC. Definitely gonna stretch these branches out and secure them to a support/screen. Take a half dozen cuttings also in the plan.

OldSmokie76 · Jan 14, 2018

They're getting a little more space now and stretching their limbs. Had to place a few supports around the SC. It is the lankiest bushiest s.o.b. I still have her under LED/Veg. Gonna have a little more fun training it before flower. The DS is under the HPS/Flwr. Setting up to clean them up and take a few cuttings. Hopefully, better clone success this round. Well, that's it folks.

OldSmokie76 · Jan 20, 2018

Just found some old notes. These girls were cut 9/28/17. That puts them over 90 days old. Lots of guys are final flushing their grow right now. 90-110 day grows. I hope to some day get my methods packed into that time frame. Until then, recklessness, minimal effort, procrastination be my guide. Lol.
Thinned out the lower third of the strawberry cough. Selectively snipped a few clones. This thing is so spread out. It's created its own level canopy. I believe a few more selective cuts to be removed. Definitely must support this thing once in flower. Bonsai cannabis.

coloradoBTC · Jan 21, 2018

yo if you never vegged for 90 days before get ready for an explosive stretch

OldSmokie76 · Jan 21, 2018

Should be ok. I think. Lol. Stretch usually about another third of overall plant size? DS is currently 22" above container. All that stretch I'm gonna pull down with ties and stakes. I still didn't implement a screen this run. My slacker ass. I plan to spread the DS out in the 5x5 under the HPS, and reluctantly I will be forced to flower the SC under led. I'm not looking forward to that, but given the space restrictions... It is what it is. This SC just won't fit. Haha. Can't wait to see this bunch get bulky.

OldSmokie76 · Jan 23, 2018

A little heat exhaustion. Missed a watering last night before lights on. The DS baked. I reluctantly did some thinning and pruning anyhow while they were a little dry. Hopefully not too stressing. Good saturation and a good night's sleep should do them good.

OldSmokie76 · Jan 23, 2018

And 12 hrs later...

OldSmokie76 · Jan 25, 2018

Sorry about the coloration. Only time I'm in the garden is during "lights on". One full week of flower in the books for these girls. Temps are steady at 75°f/day, 55°f/night. RH sitting around 35%. I'm lightly watering once a day as long as surface soil is dry. This soil mix is well balanced and I'm feeding with NFTG once a week to help fill in the blanks. According to my cheap pH meter, somewhere in the upper 6's. I really need to invest in a digital pH pen. All is well in the garden. I'll add some better pics as they progress. The strawberry cough is super thick. Have to get her supported somehow. Just flipped the LED to 12/12. Hopefully not too disappointing. I'm sad I can't fit it under the HPS. Oh well. Banking on some clones for next time.

A couple pics just before lights on...
