The Skunky Dunk farm

[SkunkyDunk]

I forgot to mention that I use SLF-100 in my feeding regime. I guess I forgot about it because it's as common a practice as checking PH.
Because we grow with zero runoff I use this product, it in combination with large soil amount we use keep our soil alive and working without any lockouts.

And a couple more, starting to see clusters of red!
I forget if I mentioned I moved the lights up about 9" for the rest of the grow.

 

[SkunkyDunk]

Definitely getting milky!
One of these gals is starting to look amber too on a couple nugs.

 

[SkunkyDunk]

The ambers are appearing!
Day 112, 61 days into flower.
Tic toc.

 

[SkunkyDunk]

Here are our week old MLI seedlings.

 

[SkunkyDunk]

Rounding out week 9.

 

[Smoking Gun]

Looking good. What day do you plan to cut?

 

[SkunkyDunk]

Tommorrow is 9 weeks from turning lights back. 7 weeks from bloom development. Hairs are beginning to turn and most heads are cloudy.
7 to 15 days I think.
Have been taking small samples every 3rd day now. Starting to get that funk I like!
Taste is improving too.

I was just surprised at how few of your pistils have turned orange. The only Skunk I have grown is the UK Cheese and now Pineapple Chunk (Barney's Farm) and both finish within 70 days, or at least in my systems. Looking at yours, which look like they would need at least 11 weeks to finish, caught me off guard. I love that unique skunky flavors that good Skunk varieties offer.

 

[SkunkyDunk]

Yes, 15 more days will be 11 weeks.
I pound them pretty good with nutes through the 8th week and lots of light so they keep growing for sure.

I had figured that when the each MH comes on for their 4 1/2 hours they are getting 85 watts sq ft.

Hey skunk how u “quick”drying your tasters? Just curious what you do? Getting flavor thru quick is tough for me.

 

[SkunkyDunk]

I cut a 3 to 4 inch top,hang it in the kitchen for a couple days. Trim nugs off and quick cure in a jar a couple days.
Trim outer buds down to stem, let set out for a day and partake.
I take a cut every 3 days so have this cycle till harvest.

 

[SkunkyDunk]

Well it appears we will be moving the MLI under LED.
I I can't hardly believe at 61 I'm making the switch.

Anywho, here are some HPS artichokes.

I do a similar thing, I think it's the best way to know, even better than watching the trichomes

Let us know how you like the LEDs, I've been threatening to buy some for summer use every year, maybe I will this time :)

Yes, the summers are brutal here in the south too.
I've battled the lower 90's at times. I am hoping also that " this newest and bestest" really is!

Day 64

 

[SkunkyDunk]

Straight aerated water at PH 5.8, with a splash of SLF-100.
Fan leaves are beginning to show they are tired on 4 of the 5 gals.
Nitrogen is about gone.

,,,,,,,,,,, I think I may miss the warm glow of HPS!
We've been friends for many years.

Get yourself some 3K LEDs and you will still get that nice glow.
