I’m on day 45 of flower with very similar looking buds, I’m just wanting mine to stack better. What strain is that?

They look real good @Glassdub

If those trichs are mostly cloudy with a few amber here and there they are ready.

Great job! I think you will be very happy.

Running straight water to the point of getting run offs for the first time since I up-potted to fabric sacks, insanely high PPM from 1880 to 3150! 😳 with pH from 5-5.3 so I assume they were/are locked out of feeding. Kinda amazed they did so well considering this. I really don't think I'm going to use fabric sacks next time so I can keep a tighter eye on this.

I dont like the idea of flimsy pots but why cant you water to runoff and collect in a tray?

I can but with BX it always seemed like they were well watered before I would get run off, I didn't want to over water, today I close to doubled that.

But bro overwatering is actually watering too often. Not the volume poured through at one time. With proper drainage volume should not be a problem. I water to 50% or 100% runoff just to clear out excess nutes from time to time.

Holy hell!! 😳🧐
I’m surprised they did that well too! I water to runoff every time I water.
I am using a plastic 4 gal container with a half inch hole on each side just above the bottom of the pot.

Going with 5 gal Terracotta next time, not the cheapest but I like them.

I really gave them a solid flush (2 gals a plant) yesterday) I don't think the medium will be super dry by tomorrow, would it still be ok to cut or should I give it another day to dry out?

I would probably give them a minute. But the only difference is they will take longer to dry. And if you flushed they probably took up a bunch of nutrients. I know that sounds backwards but thats what happens with potting mix.

Just a tip. And i only flush if there is nutrient buildup. When growers say flush at the end of a grow most mean they switched to water only. Not poured tons of water through.

For best results i learned to taper down feed strength as they ripen. Higher yield possible but still tastes great if not over fed.


Really nice work there man. i wanna try some!

I have been solidly of taper camp vs. flushing but given that the PPMs were so crazy high & given that this was/is to be the last watering I figured what the hell...
I toasted some windfall Gelato popcorn last night, knocked me out of this world, granted I'm a pretty soft-core once or twice a month vaper at this point but this seem as potent as the last dispensary script I bought for $60 a 1/8 & didn't taste much different.
