Back and (slightly) better than ever

Thanks dude. I used to struggle with how to set up the 3 x 3. It’s too big for just one regular format plant. 2 or 3 is just weird and doesn’t really fit right. Too small for 4 unless you jam them in and run them small. Solution…one big broad on a screen. The way her feeding and drainage is set up now, I can fill the rez and walk away for 4–5 days at a time if I want. Wifey took the kids and did some shit with them this evening. Had time to get this gal loaded in. Let the fun begin!View attachment 2116593

Right on brother!!! Can't wait to watch her sprawl out

Soil girls finish week 7 today. Looking like straight fall in the tent. Daytime temps still in the low 70s with 60s at night. Warmer than it was, but still chilly enough pop a ton of color.

One plant grows rock. Look at it from a gram per square foot basis and you’ll be surprised what your screen will do

Thanks dude. The chilly ass temps are going to knock my yield down a bit, but I ain’t mad. The color popping in there is striking and the flowers are looking excellent. As usual, the pics really don’t do it justice.

In the future, you don’t need to go bigger than a 3 gallon pot or bag for an auto in coco. You can use the rim of a cup like that to start them from seed right in the final pot to manage their watering until they are big enough to just take it full blast. Usually only takes a couple weeks to get them there from seed in a 3 gal. I don’t run many autos anymore, but have run hundreds of them in coco without messing with up-potting.

Ignore that. My high ass intended to post that on another thread.

The Dante’s is going ape balls under the new SE3000 wifey get me for Xmas. Not sure if it comes through in the pic, but it’s causing her to suck just a little mag. Seems to have adjusted to it tho. May supplement a touch if it tries to be a thing. Shout out to @SpiderFarmerLED for making dope gear. Perfect little fixture for a 3x3.

These 5 ladies are on day 9 of long nights. Light haircut today on some big interior fans to improve light penetration and air flow. Stretch is on. Looks like they shot up a couple inches today. Pushing them pretty hard on lighting and food. They are under x2 SF2000’s. Rolling at about 45% and gradually dialing them up. Feeding 3x /day in 2gal coco/perlite bags. Layered cake #2 (back left) is a beast. Starting to dwarf some of her sisters.

Soil girls are on day 52 of 12-12. Guava’s leaves are going to dog shit. She was less tolerant of the balls cold temps I had in mid flower. The nuggets look and smell fine, but I’m not seeing much special out of her. She is definitely 4th out of these 4 in smell and frost. A buddy gave me this cut, so I don’t have anything in it. Kind of shocked at what people were paying for it.

Speaking of frost, this chocolate gelato is lit. Smells kind of exactly like you would expect it to. Like decent gelato weed with a distinct chocolate note. Whole plant is pretty gorgeous imo.

The 2 snow drifts are really show stoppers. The pictures really don’t do them justice and the smell is outrageous. Ms. Fromunda is drooling about these and I’m gonna have to smoke fast when they are ready if I want some. Lol

#2 Just. So. Frosty.

#7 not quite as frosty, but has a really great citrus tang to the nose and flavor that I really dig.

The 5 new strains that will be replacing these girls just came out of the cloner yesterday and went into these cool little 3”x3” root pruning pots in coco to get jump started. Planning to have some teenagers in 5 gallon bags of soil by the time these are harvested. Since I am stacked with homegrown now, will let the next batch veg bigger and push this space too. Added some additional lighting that I will fire up for the next round. Only ran 400 W for these 4 little gals. Will be running 625 on the next, adding a plant and letting them all get bigger.

Sorry for rambling post. high AF on a Friday night and a little drunk too. Cheers

Day 12 of short days for these gals. Getting ready to get their early-flowering haircut. Everyone stretching nicely.

The Dante’s inferno is filling out the 3x3 screen crazy fast. Stripped some older fans to expose the undergrowth and did some training today. Will be dropping the second screen sooner than I expected. Based on my “schedule”, it will be 2 1/2-3 weeks before I flip her. She definitely won’t hold that long. If you’re going to be off schedule, at least be early!

The soil gals look like they need about 10 days. Forgot to shoot them during lights on…another day. Thanks for checking out the garden. Cheers.

Snow drift #2 (first) #7 (second). The nose on these gals is very hard to describe. Super loud and funky. Cuts clean through the carbon filter in the last week. Tent room smells like heaven.

These are eight weeks under 12-12 today. Trichs are nicely milky and fat. No amber yet, but should start to see a few. Cold is finishing them quick. Hit them with a feed of Winter Frost yesterday. They will get one more of plain water and then
Cheers

Hello farmers. Hope your v-day left you sore and tired this morning. These ladies are on day 15 of 12-12. Closing in on their final height.

Layered cake #2 (guess which one) is a lanky monster. She looks to be setting some nice flowers tho. I like those lanky ladies. My eye is on her. Roasted her tips a bit, but I think she’s over herself.

The Dante’s inferno scrog is filling in fast. Here are a couple before and after training pics from last night before bed. Will set the second screen on her once a few more branches extend under the second to outermost level of the screen.

Thanks for stopping by. Cheers

 

[Fromunda506]

8.5 weeks on these gals. Plan to harvest late next week. Buds are on the small side, mostly effects from the cold. They are some flashy ladies though. No flash on any of these pics.

18 days since flip on these ladies. Got the rest of their haircut and a bit more final pruning and training. now mostly just time to watch the show. Not surprisingly, the cakes look thin and lanky like cakes, and the amnesias look like they are going to drop some nice thick rails just like amnesias.

Dante’s inferno 3x3 scrog in veg. Since she is running a little ahead of schedule, thinking I will let her fully fill the hard screen and start heading vertical for a bit before I flip her. See what this little space and new light fixture can do.

Hope your Sunday is treating you right. Cheers

I just realized that when I posted the last update on Saturday that I thought it was Sunday with my high ass.

Anyway, Topanga og is all finish-trimmed and jarred. ended up just shy of a half pound. Pretty disappointing yield for a 12 week og of her size. didn’t really push her tho. Flowers are lovely, dense and greasy. Tastes great. Loud ass og nose on her. Stoney as hell on the early sample. Punchy but not crazy strong. Solid girl, but didn’t show me enough to keep her place in the rotation. mom room space is valuable real estate. Composted her this weekend to make space.

Speaking of making space, gunna need it. finally got around to dropping seeds for the next next run. Started with 5X each yeti f4 regs and super lemon nightmare regs from Aficionados in Colorado Springs. I’ve had pretty great luck running Kyle Kushman’s gear. While I was digging through my stuff from him, I came across an all time faves I forgot I still had. Thought I ran them all. Happy day! Also dropped 5x regs. They are a little old, but I have literally never have one of his seeds dud on me out of several dozen. maybe the best strain name ever…

These can be some BIG girls. Going to need a bit of planning for when and how to do this. They are all down and germinating though, so I will just have to figure it out…the shit I do when I’m high and excited. Ngl, I’m looking forward to this run. Cheers.

The 5 coco girls are coming along. Finished week 3 of short days yesterday. Stretch is done. Starting to show some frost. All 5 looking pretty decent.

Layered cakes (#2 is a bit too tall for the space and is getting a bit stressed by it. She gonna deal with it for now.)

Current family photo…

The Dante’s inferno scrog has filled about 2/3-3/4 of the hard screen. Stripped some interior leaves to get light to the secondary branch buds that will fill out the center. Growth at the ends has slowed up a bit as the center fires up lots of new branches. She also hasn’t been trained in a few days. Once I get her flattened out, the base screen will be about full and I can let her start getting vertical.

Upskirt

Gonna be cutting the soil gals any day now. Feels great to be harvesting flower when I’m not already out of flower. It’s been a minute.

Almost all the new seeds are up. will post some baby pics when I remember.

Thanks for checking out the garden. Cheers

Harvesting when you've still got smoke! There ya go

Your plants all look really healthy, limited stretch. Good work my friend. Oh and that 1 plant scrog, that rocks!!

 

[Fromunda506]

So I got busy and these girls survived the weekend. Should have time to cut them tomorrow. Yield will not be special, but the flowers look to be. The smell, especially on the snow drifts, is incredible. Hard to describe. Kind of sweet, kind of funky, loud as all actual fuck.

The coco girls will finish week 4 of 12-12 on Wednesday. Setting flowers nicely. The #2 layered cake is starting to look like a hero. She’s a big girl and is starting to frost half or more of her upper fans. Hopefully she keeps it up. Everyone in this batch looking pretty good. Backing off their N a little. Both amnesia trees and the big cake were saying they were a little hot.

Dante’s inferno 3x3 scrog is set to get flipped in about a week and a half. Starting to thicken up and fill in the center.

The veg tent is getting pretty full. These plants are either getting ready for action or are clones of something that is flowering and will either head to the mom room or the compost heap. Also a couple re-veggers from prior runs. This space, like everywhere else I run coco, has passive drainage from the tray they are sitting on direct to a floor drain.

14 of 15 of my babies popped (above right). They are 5-6 days old. Front are the yeti. Back are god’s vagina. 4 in the middle are super lemon nightmare (one didn’t pop). All of look good and are virtually identical.

Thanks for checking out the garden. Cheers.

Happy Sunday farmers. Hope your Sunday is treating you right.

Soil ladies in the 4x4 got harvested early last week. Modest yield for those girls, but gorgeous flowers and crazy loud funk. Shooting for about a 10 day dry. They should be ready to trim and jar late this week.

The coco girls are at 32 days of 12-12. All looking pretty decent. layered cake #1 is running slower than everyone else. Maybe just a late bloomer, maybe just a meh plant. We’ll see. Starting to fill out in the last few days.

Dante’s inferno scrog getting flipped to 12-12 on Wednesday. Getting beefy. I love it when they come out of veg with a head of steam.

Little ladies on the right are about a week and a half old. Coming along great. In 2 weeks’ish, they’ll get up-potted and head to the mom room to chill and wait their turn while they get cloned and sexed. The rest of these are copies of plants in flower that I may not keep or ones growing out for future runs.

Tweaked the lighting and cleaned down the 4x4 this weekend. Should have it back up and running with new soil girls in their final pots to finish vegging tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping by. Until the next time…

cheers

The #2 layered cake plant is starting to show off. Hard to get good pictures of her in the back row, but she has some pretty gorgeous structure and the frost level is on point.

Cheers

 

[Fromunda506]

coco girls start week 6 today. I have been pushing them pretty hard, and they look like it. A few signs of stress here and there. Generally, looking nice for the halfway point IMO. Should be a much more generous yield than the soil tent.

and a lil porn…

The three flowering spaces are settling into a rhythm based on a 10 week cycle. End of week 5 for those girls means time to flip for the Dante’s inferno scrog. Did some final training, dropped the net, and spent at least a half hour pitching shoots this afternoon to focus growth to the best branches. I will still be pinching shoots on her for the next couple days, but I am liking her shape. Day 1…let’s go!!!

This morning…

After tweaks…

New veggers are also reset in the soil tent. They will grow out until the Dante’s scrog finishes week 5. Still need to up pot the 4 small bags in there into 5 gals. Decided to wait a couple days until they are ready to feed. Final lineup is sherb cream pie, sacred princess #7, Larry x motorbreath, grape gas, lemon tree and grape crème cake. Everyone got cut back pretty savagely and is recovering. Should be a fun batch of girls despite all looking a bit like atm. Lol

Thanks for checking out the garden. Cheers

Fuck daylight saving time!!!

With that out-of-the-way, these ladies are around day 40 of 12-12.

The layered cakes (front and back left) look like really great flowers. #2 in the back looks like she has keeper potential.

Her sister is running as much as a week behind her developmentally. She is starting to show up this week tho and close the gap.

Red velvet is getting pretty lovely. Starting to build some decent colas. Smell is really great on her. Can’t really describe it yet.

The amnesia trees are starting to smell hazy af and are getting thicc. Looking forward to getting these done. Unless they both turn out to surprise me and suck, I will probably keep the best one. Starting to envision a big screen of donkey man part sized haze colas. Kind of need that in my life.

The Dante’s Inferno scrog got flipped 5 days ago. Will have to see once she stretches, but I am feeling like I nailed her training. whole canopy picked up about a vertical inch today. Really vigorous plant. Should start hitting the second screen hard in a day or 2. One more round of branch tucking as she stretches should fill out the edges of the canopy just about right.

The reg seedlings all look pretty happy. Nobody has gotten themselves culled yet. Getting ready to have some open space in my mom room to up pot all these gals so I can get them cloned and sexed. Getting a bit cozy with one another.

Forgot to shoot pictures of the soil tent. It’s kind of boring right now anyway. Just some teenage veggers starting their journey to becoming big girl veggers.

Thanks for stopping by. Cheers.

These ladies started week 7 yesterday. The #1 amnesia tree and #2 layered cake are acting like keepers, but I will wait to see how the flowers are. The amnesia is still nice and hazy, but that plant is also starting to pick up a lovely citrus thing. The layered cake is a bit of a queen imo. She’s a little crammed and got hammered by the lights since she is so tall, but she looks to have a lot of potential.
