Indoor virgin, wish me luck

I don't think that's a cactus, and if it is I'm moving to Arizona

 

[electroguy]

I'm hitting them with terp tea, every other day. 2 tbs bloom, 1tbs booster. Probably do just booster next week on. It's hard to believe this plant was a cutting from one of the cactuses.

They grow up so fast

That first one looks like a defoliator’s nightmare! L O L! I’ve been dumping a little Terp tea on mine also. Figure it can’t hurt!

Are you brewing? I've been for 48 hrs.

 

[Oldchucky]

No I tried that I could only make 5 gallons at a time and had to carry it all out to the plants so it wasn’t working! So I just take it out and put 3 tablespoons in a gallon jug fill it with water, shake it up as best I can, and squirt it into the pots. Then I water it in. Making the tea is probably a better way of doing it.

 

[Oldchucky]

Anytime, I’ve made tea and bubbled yet for a couple of days. It has always gotten pretty rank. I think the microbes run out of things to eat and croak! Mine always smells like a septic tank! L O L! But it never seem to hurt the plants. It seem to smell a little better when I throw some molasses in.

Both of the cacti are difficult..... that pic is the critical locktite. Man that plant is sticky. The buds are finally starting to stick out a bit. Defol is a little easier. I guess it's indica leaning? Hmmmm. Fun times. Last year my plants were comparatively microscopic. These gals are serious

I've been adding molasses and fish for the little critters to eat. Sometimes there is a jizz looking colony in the middle of the bucket. But it always smells sweet when it's done, even with the fish emulsion.

 

[Oldchucky]

Yeah, I think it supposed to be nice and foamy! I probably brew it too long. I use recharge regularly also. Just on the plants not in the tea. Although I think you can put it into the tea and really get the microbes cranking!

Mine doesn't really get that frothy, but I suppose the girls are loving it. I'm off salts now. I was going back and forth in early flower but tea only from here on out.

 

[electroguy]

It's all an experiment for me

 

[Oldchucky]

I hear ya! Last year it was just water and recharge all year for me. This year I thought I would add some things to see if there’s any change. All in late veg and flower. Terp T, Langbenite, and seabird guano. The jury is still out! But looking pretty good.

 

[electroguy]

They are loving the new white TPO roof and the cooler temperatures. Supposedly rain Tuesday and Wednesday and high 70s

 

[Oldchucky]

Like the temperature, but don’t like the rain. In my opinion any kind of moisture in the air is bad! I like it bone dry! L O l! But getting rained on is pretty much inevitable. I shouldn’t be a problem if they have a chance to dry out some between storms.

Should I remove the inner larf on the non cacti plants, Or just leave them and do partial harvest and let them go longer

 

[Oldchucky]

I only clean up about three or 4 inches of each branch. I leave a lot of small stuff on. And I always partial harvest! About all you can do is clean up all the dead stuff and you get out there and shake them off when it quits raining. And hope for the best.

Sounds great . Thanks. No rain yet.

How do you partial harvest? Chop the end buds and wait a specific time or watch the larf or maybe a combo or both. How do you like your amber % on your trichomes? You're an indica guy, right?

 

[Oldchucky]

12 plants. Six strains. Some sativa, leaning, some Indica leaning. I’m not too particular! I take them as far as I can. All the pistols shriveled all the trikes cloudy with a little amber. And I think just as important as those I want to see the bud and the leaves surrounding it Changing to fall colors! That means late October early November. I want to get them as close to total senescence as possible. The site is rife now with people losing their nerve, calling, obviously immature, bud done, and chopping way early. But that’s what happens when you try and grow this shit in a place that it wasn’t meant to grow in. It happens every year! Chop a month early and call it dank! Lol! You might have the weather to get it totally finished! But you’re pretty far south, but I hope you can take them a ways! The the plants seem to mature from the outside in and from the top down. So I don’t hesitate to leave stuff that I think can benefit from a week or two more. I’ll take three, maybe four, harvest off the same plant. I don’t pick all my peaches at once, or plums, or cherries, or apricots! I don’t pick all my pot either!

 

[Oldchucky]

You would be amazed at the difference in potency and taste from a plant that has been pushed right to her limit! We are lucky to have that opportunity! Most people don’t!
