Seedsman’s Northern Soul

Really nice work with the clones Obi-Wan. I have 2 clones off WW and 2 clones off Mama Mia from outdoor grow. I've grown Mama Mia a couple times now, she is vigorous outdoor for me. I still have a Jack Herer seed but holding it for another summer. Great job those are some fine looking colas.

[Obi-Wan]

Day 29 of 12/12, I’m not using a support trellis with this round. I have fewer side branches this time around so the colas should be able to support themselves until the later stages of flower at which point I’ll use yo-yo’s. The absence of the netting also allows me to remove the plants for a more proper defoliation.

I’m working on a mixed run for my next grow, White Widow, Mama Mia, Jack Herer, and Big Bang. It’ll be a mix of seeds and clones but I’ll start a new thread for that grow next week.

Day 22 of 12/12. I kept the MH bulb in for an extra week while I waited for my new Hortilux bulb to come in. I ran the last one for 15 months and I probably could have pushed it longer but it’ll make for a serviceable backup bulb if the new one fails prematurely.

Any strain recommendations?

I can search for 'high-yiedling' etc

But a personal recommendation narrows that list

alltatup must have a list of known good, high yielding strains/breeder combinations

It's possible. No reason you cant. Envision the goal and just do it. Just pick you genetics carefully.

On that note awesome your grow. Very nice.

Buds held 61% for the last 36 hours in the bins so they were jarred today. Total harvest yield was 358 grams, a wee bit more than double the original 2 plant harvest. I’d like to be able to pull a lb. from this next grow but to do so would require an additional 90 grams and I’m not sure my setup an I are up to the task. I got .89 grams/watt from this last grow in a 9 sq. ft. grow space(39.7 grams per sq.ft.). As I said earlier, a man can dream!!

Here they are today. Day 8 of 12/12

[Obi-Wan]

The final round of flowering started 7 days ago. Here they are on flip day.

[Obi-Wan]

The harvest took about 7 days to dry. I’m starting the cure in these plastic bins, 1 night with the lids on and the humidity was 72%. I’ll leave the lids off for 6 hours, cover them back up for the night and check them again in the morning. Once they hold at 62% over night I’ll jar them up.

[Obi-Wan]

Harvest day has arrived.

the force is strong with you my friend, looking great

[Obi-Wan]

Starting week 8 of flower. The plants are slowly leaching nutrients and the trichomes are developing on schedule for a harvest a week from today. The EC gradually dropped from 1.2 to 1.0 with water only top offs of the reservoir. I will leave the reservoir as is until Thursday at which point I will switch to water only for the final 4 days.

The Veg girls are progressing on schedule as well, they put on 4 new nodes over the last week and will be ready for their flip to 12/12.

That tent is full of healthy plants way to grow obi-wan

[Spidermite]

Very nice plants

[Obi-Wan]

Starting week 7 of flower with about 2-3 weeks left, trichomes are still 90% clear so it really just depends on how quickly they turn cloudy. Some of the leaves are just barely starting to turn a lighter shade of green so I set EC at 1.2 for this week.

The 4 plants in Veg bounced back from their training again and are doing well. They got a good pruning today but it will just be minor trimming until just before the flip.
