DTW liberty haze, masterblend nutrients.

[mark360jones]

Yes this is coco. The pH is extremely stable in the resovior it can mabey drift 0.1 if even at all over a whole week. I think I may have added too much pk that these can handle. Do you think a good flush of pH 6 water then re Introduce nutrients at mabey 1.1 ec instead of 1.3ec.

You probably won’t see any improvement but just checking in.

I can’t remember if this is your first grow but it is looking really good. Looks like a few more weeks? Got your harvest dry and cure all sorted? They are squatty so I’ll wager 1.6 pounds dry. You can push tgat up next grow if poundage is what you are going for.

Hi @Moe.Red I've got a few grows under my belt, im guessing at least 3 weeks left for this liberty haze, just trying to perfect this masterblend in the drain to waste system. I'm used to getting between 35-40 oz dry from 8 girls.
The next strain will be on a cycle now (dr krippling incredible bulk)

So the nutrient burn got a little worse before it slowed (should of reacted a little quicker to be honest). I have reduced the strength by 0.3 ec (i sort of knew beforw adding the nutrients that it may be a little to much of a nutrient push on the plant but at least i can now note it down for future reference). The pistols have started to orange slightly but the trichomes are still clear. I know I have roughly 3 weeks left as this strain is around 9 weeks but I will keep checking trichomes every couple of days to check the progress. Hopefully there isn't too much of an impact on yeild and quality, the growth and size of the buds are still good and the smell is amazing lemony/fruity.

Nice work. Keeping everything green all the way to the end is the hard part, you got it under control.

So I've been panicking over the purple stems and purple veins on the leaves thinking that the nutrient burn i came into had caused it. Panic is now over as it seems to be the genetics phewww. As you can see from the photos pulled from barneysfarm.com the lady in the photo seems to be the same and the little bit of research I did also says the same

 

[Moe.Red]

Yeah lots of genetics have a predisposition to go purple. Looks cool but is meaningless in terms of quality or smoke

Trichome check no2.
Results, clear and slight cloudy trichomes, 90% of hairs/pistils have all gone orange. Buds are nice and dense and smell fruity&lemon and are filling out and frosting up.
I will be checking every couple of days now as I'm nearing the time to flush & chop. I reckon the next reservoir (start of week 8) when I reduce nutrients dramatically I should start seeing a couple of Amber trichome heads, this should take me to a flush close to or on week 9.
I have uploaded a picture of the Microscope I use, seems to work well on Samsung s21. (Im unsure if i had to buy the usb to usbc adapter, the instructions also say its compatible with iPhone)

Trichome check no2
I've been away for a few days and decided to check the trichomes again. The lower buds still seem to be clear but the tops are clouding and a couple of Amber so I'm deciding to flush

 

[Moe.Red]

Pretty exciting.

You got the dry and cure all sorted?

Sorry for the late reply, yep all sorted. The flower is drying as we type. Got my next one started now. So I am going to start a new post I will update my weight and qual8ty when it's ready. Thanks for your help too @Moe.Red

After 7 days drying the stems are snapping, I've put it into the box to cure and the humidity is sat a 61. The weight before it went into the boxes was 67oz or 1899.418 grams over the 8 ladies this is one of the better results I've had. The quality seems really nice and the smell is a beautifully fruity and the overall looks is great some real nice chunky buds with plenty of trichomes. There is always room for improvement and there were a few points along the way which I should of done something different so mabey the next results will be better. If you would like to follow me on my next garden there is a new thread now
