First grow ever and went hydro in my sleeping quarters

[Skinnypuppy80]

Yeah, that sounds more like a seed to harvest estimate but what do I know! At this point it really doesn’t matter. Now, it is all about what it looks like! You may not have to make the decision on when to flip, but you still have to make the decision on when to chop! IMO You still have a little ways to go! Two weeks doesn’t sound unrealistic! Give or take!

U r probably right about the seed to harvest. It sprouted 11/28, so it's like 13+ weeks. I have a loupe and should be using that to get a better look of the trichomes

Sad, sad day. My 5x5 had 5 plants in it for my first grow, I'm down to one my dwc auto. The 4 site rdwc is barren now after chopping a male, then 3 herms. Before the last 3 got axed

Afterwards

At least I'll have one to get to the finish. It's a 7 gal dwc and for the last week it drinks about a gal a day, ppm stays the same, did I lock it out? Also, r these nut burns?

My plan is to drain it, get it to around 600ppm (500 scale,) and add some Epsom salt. Comments and suggestions are always welcomed!!!!

Well the sole survivor(auto) is 101 days(14+) weeks in. It was very mishandled, had crown rot in veg, maybe why it's taking soo long?

I'm hoping another week or to till I get to chop it! Pics below r just from the phone on the 3/6

Pics below are crap pictures of the canopy 3/5

Ordered a microscope that should arrive Monday. This thing is bushy and has sites that are still maturing way behind... I start seeing amber, chop chop!

Most definitely chop time!

I'm gonna do something that is probably dumb and won't work well. I'll be setting up another tent to dry in. After I opened up my tent by trashing a male and 3 herms, I started introducing like another 10+ sites that are chugging along nicely but still weeks behind the initial ones. My plan is to chop the colas that r ready, dry em in the new tent and hope the rest of the plant doesn't get too stressed out and die. I'm assuming the remaining plant will get too stressed and die, but gonna try! Suggestions or opinions are always more than welcomed!

I think it will be OK! Probably won’t miss a beat! Mine never have!

That's encouraging! I'm not gonna expect anything, just giving it a shot and trying to get the most out of the lonely survivor after having to trash 4. My first grow and am pretty pleased just from how that one plant has done. I should have 4 clones though in about a week to repopulate the 4 empty sites!! F u herms!!! lol

 

[Oldchucky]

Yeah, you’ve done all right! But an 80% casualty rate is pretty high! You’re gonna have to work on that!

 

[Skinnypuppy80]

Yeah, I wanna blame that on genetics :) Guess I'll find out on the next round of 4 :)

Salutations! Got the first round of harvest in about 7 quart jars for about a week now. I think I messed up the dry though, it wasn't humid enough in the dry tent, like lows around 35. Any suggestions how to bump up the rh in a dry tent? I heard you don't wanna humidify said tent, so just use damp towels or a bowl of water to get the rh up? I'm about to do a 2nd harvest of that plant and looking to improve. Gotta get that thing out as my main tent is now getting conditioned to the 4 clones in it now!!

 

[Skinnypuppy80]

Some pics of the 2nd round of the auto. got another twice that amount to trim yet :(

Congrats on your first grow and harvest!!

 

[Skinnypuppy80]

Thanks! I had quite a few issues, but got 1 to the end and I think it'll turn out alright. It's been really rewarding to at least get that. Just learning and growing as I go :)

Now fire up a few more and keep it growing
