420Captain first grow. How are they doing ?

[trygrowup]

I bought the Grove bags, u used them ?

Nahh i'm a little hysteric with plastic and weed. I just use glass but i think the good thing about the bags is that they are more like set and forget.
Good for bigger harvest. I only have 4 plants at a time. And you avoid burping glas and forgetting closing the glas when burping like i do.
And if you put the weed on glass after curing in the bags, i don't think any taste will transfer at all.
But there are fumes in plastic that will merge with the oil in the weed. Food grade or not. If you can smell it or not. Thats unavoidable but it will be in amount under some decided limit.

I helped my friend moving and found some popcorn he forgot he had. They were in a plastic food grade box.
We smoked them and the weed had absorbed the taste and smell from the plastic. Didn't smell like weed at all.
I have to say that the weed was in that box for years.
Weed still worked in the tunnel vision way if you know.

I understand what you saying, but i don't think it's gonna be far of.

Around 60/70 cm now.


For sure a good tip, thnx!
Does the hunger ever leave ?

Jar with packs.
I actually had a good experience with an oversized 62% pack directly into cure from dry. It worked very well. Some guy sold me 1 oz packs and put a 12 case of 1 lb packs in the bag

And that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

ah, the boveda packs ? i've seen them online, maybe next round i can give them a try.

But like Trygrowup says, set and forget, i'm the asshole that forgets to close the jar

Yeah i think i'm gonna throw in the towel too.
I'm gonna buy those boveda packs for my glass jars. 2 of my 4 jars is already too dry because i forgot them.

This eliminated the burping.

 

[420Captain]

Oh really ? didn't know that. Have to do some better research

 

[JIMKSI64]

When I thought this through the terp shield claim is because the wrapper for the chemical inside can only be permeated by water vapor the terps remain in the plant.
Using burping pulls water vapor and terps out of the plant and moves them out of the jar.
The ugly faded pot from the Apple Fritter grow cured down very smooth. Best taste of my 4 runs so far.

 

[420Captain]

Always so much pic's of tent #1 so today we gonna spend some time on tent #2 only

This tent is doin awesome. Maybe i should have done an extra week of grow, but now i know for next round. These are not so compact as the other tent.
I did remove a leaf 3 per plant today.

 

[trygrowup]

Almost didn't recognize you with you new haircut.

I agree. Tent 2 looks fire
Not that tent 1 doesn't.

About tent one.
I'm just gonna say it. I felt from start they maybe got a tad too much light.
I've heard from others, those light censors you got might not be precise but i don't know.
And the LED is stronger when new. At least first grow.
Could be why they don't stretch as much. But could be the strain too.

Edit: I'm not saying they get too much light now but during veg and at flip.

 

[420Captain]

Yeah, summertime hearcut, you know

Yeah, i think you are right, because when i did my grow back in the day with the same strain they did like to stretch.
I will take notes for the next round regarding the light

Currently :

 

[420Captain]

I have to confess something that i noticed yesterday!!

I'm using the wrong nutrient schedule this whole time..
I can be really stupid sometimes....

I used this one:

But shoud have use this :

 

[trygrowup]

Wait. You gonna give them double nutes now?

 

[420Captain]

Nooo,

I just use the top schedule from day 1 till now, but it's for grow mix, and i've got light mix.. So i should have used the bottom pic, where it says light mix...
So i never gave enough grow nutrients.... I gave that only the 4th week veg..

 

[420Captain]

Day 36
Noo not me worrieng about mold.. Inside of the plant is really really full and compact.
How much leave can i remove in this stage?
And the tent is really too full. One plant was hitting the side of the tent and looks a bit funny. But i'm not laughing.

Day 19
Doin great, i'm trying to do better on these with the leaves. Yeah i know, the table fan is not the greatest, but one extra is on the way.

New seeds are here, :) Orderd a few extra on royal queen seeds, also forbidden fruit.

 

[trygrowup]

Yeah i agree. It looks like you can take more leafs. How about start with the ugly ones that dont get much light.
Looks like picture 1 for example has some it doesn't really use in the shadow.

 

[420Captain]

Okay thnx, that side was against the tent wall.. Not great but okay.
I'll remove some extra

 

[trygrowup]

Yeah from the pictures it looks like they got a lot of leafs inside the plant. That would give some air and also indirect light to the inside buds.

 

[420Captain]

Yeah i'm gonna need to dive deep, it's a bit scary. Because i allready damaged 1 stem

 

[trygrowup]

How do you damage the stem, removing leafs?
Chainsaw?

 

[420Captain]

No, one stem broke, or how do i explain ? i tried to repair it with a bending clip so it's upright again
Yes, while removing leaves
