weekly - It was maintenance week so thinning down occurred, not much to see so let's start with the wife's. Just in time for the holidays
IMG 1260


Cloner - 5 days cut and I can already see pale new growth. I think these rapid rooters are going to work out just fine
IMG 1262


Veg - Down to 2, Chemdog #4 and Death Star crosses.
IMG 1263


FullGas - 8 weeks and she is starting to fade some. Flushing her a bit better than the first run.
IMG 1265


Oreoz - 9 weeks in flower and she is going strong. Looks like fullgas might go down first.

It was harvest day. I had a minute free from work so the plants came down yesterday. There are so many variables to look at as to when is it ready to harvest, in hydro they just stop drinking. I've never gotten much color with HID's. Little cleaning and maintenance and it should be back up and running by the first of the week.

FullGas 9 weeks

Oreoz x Okie - 10 weeks

This system is going on 3 years old and I can't remember there not being at least one plant in flower but not today. Soon, maybe today.

Cloner - These clones are at a minimum of 3 days ahead of any other batch of clones. Direct light at 7 days, with rockwool it was 10 days.

Veg - These gals are ready for flower

Speaking of flower - nothing under the lights but the drier is full. 2 Strains in there. Tighter than what I like though

The wife brought home this new kitchen gadget on Black Friday. I told that looks cool 😎, can’t wait to borrow it.

Later that day there was one by the shop door. Guess that means DECARBING STINKS and I can’t borrow hers. I’m good with that 😃

Unboxed and gave it a test run. Holds about 12 degree cooler than display but that’s fine. Processing by new year 👍

It’s one of the few designs /ideas I’ve had with this grow that actually works. Humidity drop with no flowering plants and below freezing temps has made this a fast dry. Stopped air exchange by day 5

That’s a vigorous little one. Can’t wait to see you drop a screen on her. I’m thinking about moving mine into the flower in 3 week ish.
When do you plan to flip jj?
Click to expand...
She went 12/12 when she moved over. Sprout 10/11 so she just a little behind the norm for height but man there’s a lot going on in there. Hope to get her string up tomorrow. Humidity drop had me scrambling around to get that drier emptied out. 6 days and it’s done

Got the string up and the first look at what’s really going on with girl. Death Star / GoJo is going to be a dense bush!
She’s got close internodes and really dense stiff branches for this age of a plant. I’m liking what I’m seeing so far with this pheno. Fingers crossed for a nut free grow

Gatdamned she is thick. Def tight on the nodes. That thing is vegging crazy hard man.
I really haven’t done any real manipulation to mine yet, aside from the stalk that got snapped and a bit of topping. I’m def interested in what our medium difference brings to the table.

Topped once at what I thought was the 5th set but it was only 4. Dense I tell ya. That’s all I’ve done to her, went 12/12 2 days ago

Learned a good lesson with this harvest. 25% humidity sucks for drying. No plants in flower and a cold front, damn it.
Buds were dust on the outside but hanging on the stem can bring that bud back to form. Curing the old fashioned way. It smells like a hayfield in June
