Second grow - trying hydro in coco.

[spase]

I plan on adding a slanted riser at the front and back. The front will be wider and for the vegging clones with the back one for starting clones and seedlings. I'll put in some kind of gutters to control the drainage. Hopefully that will help with the space issues and get rid of the weird stack of saucers.

The old ladies are awake now, so here's some close ups. These have a few days left. Which is good as the Skywalker really needs a bigger space.

I have to thank everyone here. My first harvest was nice. It wasn't what I hope to get in the future, but I've got a few friends who make gummies as the product isn't smokeable. But mine was enjoyable. I've had worse store bought by far.
This grow is looking really nice to me, and I'm hopeful it'll be better than last.

I've been having issues with humidity, so I've been leaving the door to the room open a crack. This morning, my wife turned on the light for 5 or 10 minutes in the outer room. This is 2 hours before lights on. How problematic is that?

Acceptable light leak during photosynthesis is 15 minutes direct light before you start having issues. Takes about 20-30 for the girls to wake up. That's why some lights have the gradual light setting.

Smoked some larf I removed a week ago. Taste could use some work, but it stoned me ok.

Once it's fully mature and cured fully the taste will be there. The chlorophyll has to degrade before the turps become truly active and available. Also the THC becomes more stable and the high will be a lot better.

A suggestion is to put a green light in the room where your flower tent is. You can see, and the light isn't going to affect the plant as fast still keep it off as much as possible if the door is open. But if you're girl leaves the light on on accident, it won't hurt you as much. Plan for all the girls In your life lol.

This mornings pictures.

I'm finally seeing a good amount of amber!

 

[spase]

Today the amber is looking a bit more intense. Hopefully I'll decide to cut them I'm the next few days.

 

[spase]

And today;

 

[spase]

I'm seeing amber a lot more, even on the lower buds. My Skywalker is starting to push my veg room so I need to get her in here soon. My timing is looking pretty good.

 

[spase]

Today's pics. I'm seeing less amber, but I'm just using the phone magnifier today - the loop was being uncooperative.

 

[spase]

I managed a few with the loop

 

[spase]

Got a few today.

 

[spase]

Tomorrow is the day. I'll turn off the lights tonight and let them sleep in a little and chop them down!

There's enough amber I'm sure they've reached peak potency. They could maybe get a touch bigger, but my Skywalker is busting out of my veg room and it needs to move into the flower room. If it's a little more potent due to this timing that won't hurt my feelings.

I'm hoping for about 4 oz off each of the 2 plants. That should last until the Skywalker is ready.

Last picture of this grow before harvest.

And the Skywalker going in tomorrow.

 

[spase]

Here's the last pictures from this grow. They're in the drying tent now. I needed 2 layers in my 2x2x4 tent.

 

[spase]

I've put the Skywalker into the flowing room. I'll trim it up and let it get a little height.
The clone of Skywalker is looking good. I've got a Hella jelly seedling going. The seedling is tiny. It's got a couple nodes, but it's about 1/4 scale for some reason.

Strangely, the biggest clusters of buds were all branches that were not to the top of the plant. Everything felt rather dense. Now I just need to get a nice dry/cure.
