Time to show your grow.

[Bluey]

Only 7 weeks into cure. Thought it was longer. Freshly aired out for half an hour. The crap popcorn and low lying buds is showing promise now re effects but still a bit too harsh..over dried badly.
Yet to try the quality stuff. Few more weeks.

[Smallgrow]

Those always feel like extra long weeks

Day 73 of the scarlets- a n t i c i p a t i o n is making me drool...

[Smallgrow]

Yup lots of waiting and anticipating…..

Dry and cure just can’t rush it

[90Gizmo]

Now the Strawberry Cough is outside and have all the room in the world to grow. I'm assuming that moving them from the 18/6 hours of light in the grow tent to the 12/12 outside well start the flip. Eventually.

I moved the 10 gallon bags before watering them to save my back some. I just watered them and they are starting to perk up. It's 10 degrees hotter in the hot house than outside. Fans are next on the list.

[Bluey]

I've never grown weed in a greenhouse.

For auto watering all I use is a programmable power point and set the frequency and length to what I reckon works and have an aquarium pump in a plastic wheelie bin as the nute tank. Works a treat.

I'd be interested to see if you can get humidity down in a greenhouse to where you need it in flower...I guess air changeover with windows and door and mechanical if that's not enough but I really have no idea.

[90Gizmo]

Bluey so I googled greenhouse humidity control and the answer without using a dehumidifier is to keep the temperature higher... A U.Mass paper describes cycling between running exhaust fan and running a furnace. If I understood you run the exhaust until you get an air exchange (get down to outside humidity) then turn on the heat until you get to your desired humidity or VPD. A farmer piles his rocks just on the other side of my fence so maybe I can use them for some sort of passive solar heat. Blue sky but doable. Heat in the summer. Who thought of that.

[Bluey]

They grow them here in greenhouses but they are 250' long and much higher and wider, and in warmer climates than where I am.

I reckon the go is to breed them and allow them to develop to the greenhouse climate so genetics may be the key...I'm sure there are heaps doing it

[SoOrbudgal]

Well we are in the zone to harvest one of the OG Kush she's all cloudy just gave her the last 1/2 gallon of water she'll get. Takes about 3days to fully dry out by then i do think i'll have some amber if not I can't hold out any longer LOL i needs the weeds. Her sister is at least 3wks behind by the looks of her but she is thicker than yellowing gal. Don't ya always wish you had 4 instead of 2 in this type of grow ? I've had zero issues with them but i could'nt fit anymore cause i was vegging 6 photos with them at the time and have not put up my other tent, that's a possible garage tent in the future. I'm so very pleased with these little as they are

[Bluey]

Oh sweet!

You shouldn't have to do the run of shame down to the dispo for a little while.

[SoOrbudgal]

Well Bluey i ran again to my little dispensary while i was out needing groceries. They were out of my $2 gram so i got $4 weed LOL it's called Rock Candy uh huh so it's a new one to me. I clipped a good size bud off yesterday about a 4gram one so it will go into my pipe in another day. Can't role my doobies takes too much so i'm using my old glass for now.

[Bluey]

Oh cool @soorbudgal

I haven't used my desktop vape in quite a few weeks as the stuff I've been smoking has been pretty crap and best consumed via a joint but it's come on now after 8 weeks of curing so will be interesting to give it another go.

The great thing about the vape is that it uses a lot less bud than a joint. Can't wait to get into the good stuff but still got a little bit of the early harvest remaining.

[HobbitGDF]

heres couple cool pics i made

[Indelacio]

Just posting an update on my grow......my plants always seem to turn into monsters. I've decided to put up a support frame and used clip hooks to get it into shape. Should be good for the next 3-4 weeks

[Bluey]

Ahh. Yes. That's the problem.
Link is to what you need to adjust the height of your light

[SoOrbudgal]

Because i don't use yo yo's to raise and lower i'm always using clean wood blocks along with a plastic riser under my pots. I've got 4x4 and 2x2 blocks. Does'nt matter as long as you keep the area clean from bugs. Even cement blocks. That's a nice net unit. Next time it will become more manageable and node spaces will shorten become stronger.

[Indelacio]

Ya know....I just had an idea for a salmon ladder type setup for my light. If I can find appropriate vertical supports it would be perfect.
Or even hanging a rope ladder on each side like these.

[SoOrbudgal]

I took down one OG kush auto today 78days from sprout. She's a tad shy of buds as i needed to help suppliment my lack of weed. I don't like to but it's better than spending $$ every week till the others are harvested. I think it's looks like i'll get abit over 2oz off it. I have one left in the tent it's far thicker and had way more leaf tighter nodes also, she looks like closer to 3+ oz got aways to go yet week or so. Sorry guess i did'nt see the cat hair in the 3rd pick. I can hear a certain someone now grinding their teeth LOL my dogs don't shed and alittle bit of the fairy garden i sit by it late evenings and we talk about lifes mysteries.

Peace and happy growing y'all

[Bowhunterwoody]

Hey SoOrbudgal. Congrats on the harvest! My wife would love the fairy garden. Idea for next year.

[SoOrbudgal]

Yes Bluey I used to have a network of friends who grew a few every summer. I'm contacting one today.

[Bluey]

Nice work SoOrbudgal .
I have already passed on 8 jars and a few more to go.

[90Gizmo]

Plants have grow about ten inches last week. I'm guessing that's a combination of normal stretching and reaching for lack of clear skies. I've measured the PAR at about 200 while it's raining. I have some companion marigolds, lavender and basil with them. Knock on wood I haven't seen any bugs on the girls.

I also have some tomatoes but couldn't find any peppers that weren't buggy. I got soil today to up-pot the tomatoes but but it's too humid for me to work outside. I'm going to have to divide my lavender. I'd have thought it's rather talk pot was good enough but it has roots coming out of the bottom. The basil seems very health and is growing like crazy too. It's stinky so I hope it repels bugs as well. I have a basic repotting station in place and can store 12 gallons of water inside an old fermentation vessel. My little green house is coming along. Apologies to my organic-grow buddies, I've put down a perimeter barrier of DEET that is supposed to repel crawling insects too.

The girls are getting bushy. I thought I'd need to use sticks to train it now I think I need sticks to support the the stalks growing to the sides. Tomorrow. I'm still thinking of adding supplemental lighting but saving electricity was the main reason for growing outdoors so that rubs me the wrong way. Well, can't do everything all at once.

[Bluey]

What numbers are you getting day/night?

[90Gizmo]

Bluey - I don't have real numbers yet. My sensor isn't in the canopy just in the room. I do have a non contact thermometer on order but not in hand. But still I figured the VPD is too high in the day and too low at night. Also we've had fog and thunderstorms for a week so not real weather either. I do think that whatever the numbers turn out to be that they'll be a little better for being in the greenhouse vs outdoors. At least for now the plants look happy.

[changeofpace2014]

Gizmo she is a performer and if you ever cross that you can always come back to...Any cross I ever made with her, always has the berry scent and strong weed...O she does really nice with 3 days dark..

[SoOrbudgal]

90Gizmo this was a few years back i had to stuff a big one into greenhouse do to fall rains. I got some mold not much but i did'nt use a fan inside just opened all the windows they have screens like a camping tent probley like yours. It saved them. The first pick i super cropped bent the stalks over made a knuckle as it healed, no harm at all.

[90Gizmo]

I really like how sturdy your tent looks. Better than mine. I see what you did there with the main stem. Mine are still supple and I think I can simply bend them over. I hesitate tying outside of the pot because I like to turn the plants daily. (I'm going to have to get over that before I try a scrog.) The plants are on 5 gallon buckets so I've some time, maybe another week, for training. We also have sun forecast for a few days so I'll get to see how they handle the heat.

[Rwise]

Heres what I have not already harvested, getting tomatoes green beans and the melons will soon be ripening onions are in, I need to mow again.
All y'all have a great 4th!

[SoOrbudgal]

You got trees LOL we'll never learn. I got 1 tomatoe starting to pink up and my greenbeans are flowering like crazy, now those are getting chewed on like crazy but not my weed. Be safe and keep all your fingers on LOL

[Rwise]

I put in a royal hillbilly tomato and the other is a cross tween a Cherokee purple and a black cherry. The RH is early bearing of med size low acid maters, the other makes large very tasty blood red maters when they get there. Some of those have been topped, 2 branches tied down, tied up since the big blow, they cold have been taller.

[SoOrbudgal]

OG kush auto 83days now. Only waiting for friday to chop an hang. Going to hang her up and put my 4 outdoor autos in the 3x3 tent hoping it will help them to grow with more consistaint temps. They are not doing well outdoors from too cold to now too hot slowly budding. I never had this issue with them before but never have i began them outdoors either. Not a good start for them or me. But this OG kush auto run did really well for me. This plant should give me close to 4oz she looks like in person, the other gave me close to 3oz. I'm happy with that.

[Rwise]

I think my autos would have yielded more had they been vegged indoor until flowers began, then out the door.

[Ckbrew]

Day 83
Harvest for scarlet sunset x 3.

[HobbitGDF]

Beautiful. I've been smoking my scarlet sunset. I love it. Doesn't give wife anxiety, so that's great. Very purple when broke up to roll one. Great plants

[Bluey]

Roots have rotted away completely in the early pots with males in them.
All covered in mold.
Will give the coco a good flush but unsure about buffering it. I'll give it a couple of hot flushes.
Awaiting nirvana from abroad.
Hygrometers now swapping jars and brought down to 62% then sealed for maybe 1 crack a month. Cure working well now both smooth a effects are quite good. It's coming over you really nicely. Can take 30 to 60 minutes to come right over you..very nice warm feeling

[SoOrbudgal]

Well my 2nd OG Kush is done 86 days from sprout. I took her out of the tent for a before an after defoiliation/trim did'nt need much those suger leaf are pretty much intact as i can't see wasting them by trimming hard. I'm very happy with what i got from the 2. I won't chop her till sat. morning an hang her then she's still drying in the bag. From the small buds i've used they are nice an smooth to me i nearly fell asleep outside last evening my dogs whined at me told me to move inside they wanted there dab of ice cream.

[90Gizmo]

Those are soooo frosty! Hm. Canna butter plus powered sugar makes canna frosting?
