Blue Cheese and Wedding Cake

[bboyfromwayback]

Week 5 and starting to look pretty

[dirtymike]

I'm thinking Christmas surprise.

Middle of week 6. It’s been a little chilly in my basement with lights off but you’d never tell from the Blue Cheese. She’s about 50% milky and still completely green. I’ll probably start flushing her on Monday. The Wedding Cake is still all clear

[Rootsruler]

I use to work at Jungle Boys in L.A. as one of their grow techs taking care of the plants and all. I remember literal fields of Wedding Cake growing when it first became a hit. They couldn't grow it fast enough!!!

Blue cheese- dank, a very dank plant.

This grow has flown by for me as well! First time growing either strain, I’m going to wait until summer to grow Wedding Cake again and see if she fattens up more. Super easy grow though, since week 3 all Ive done is add water and nutes to the reservoir once a week and snap a few pics 👍🏻

End of week 7. The Blue Cheese is all milky now and chunky. She’s been on plain water since the 12/11. Shooting for 10% amber with her. The Wedding Cake is about 50/50 now so I just moved her over to the reservoir with plain water. Plan on pulling her when she’s all milky before I see any amber 🤞🏻

Frosted good cheese and cake.

[dirtymike]

That cake is getting frosty purple.

[bboyfromwayback]

Appreciate it everyone

[Going2fast]

100% jealous. Never had a plant go full purple before. Beautiful grow.

[bboyfromwayback]

Thanks! I grow in my basement and it gets into the low 60’s with the lights off. It stunts the growth on some strains but I get some pretty plants November-March

[bboyfromwayback]

Starting to see a little amber on the Blue Cheese so I gave her a trim and removed most of her fan leaves. Still have a few clear ones on the Wedding Cake. Hoping it works out and I can harvest them together.

Little tidbit for anyone considering the move to AutoPots…..When I hand watered my plants I didn’t really flush them. My last two waterings before harvest would be with plain water and that was it, no issues. Since I switched over to AutoPots, I now flush my plants for at least a week. If not the smoke taste like pure chemicals

[dirtymike]

Do you think the constant saturation is the problem. @ bboyfromwayback I like the ideal of autopots but there size throws me off. The plant taking up the chems instead of the water, if that's possible.

[No3odiesShad0w]

I always say I'm going to try a liquid fertilizer grow and never do it. One day..... One day

[bboyfromwayback]

I definitely believe the medium being saturated with chemicals for weeks affects the taste. The plants get bigger but need to be thoroughly flushed prior to harvest or the smoke taste like 💩

[bboyfromwayback]

Last pics before lights out. The Blue Cheese is super chunky and stinks!!! Soon as you start to open the tent she consumes the area lol Wedding Cake didn’t fill out nearly as much. I don’t think she enjoyed the cooler winter temps during lights off 😕

[Jimmynuetron]

Very impressive ! My lights are going on Jan. 1 Definitely going to try this. Did you start with 24 hrs before the flip ?

[bboyfromwayback]

Thank you 🙏🏻 On my winter grows I run the lights 24x7 through veg for the heat

[bboyfromwayback]

This grow is a wrap! I harvested on the 29th, just realized I didn’t post the pics

[bboyfromwayback]

Thanks everyone! Definitely a dank tent. Stinks up my entire house when opened

[dirtymike]

Those LST boards are getting my attention. bboyfromwayback Are they on a lacy Susan so to spin them around??

[bboyfromwayback]

These are 18” tabletop boards. They sell them precut at Lowe’s or Home Depot then I screwed eye hooks in for anchors. I spin them around during training just like a lazy Susan though 😉

[Going2fast]

Beautiful my growmie. Looks dankalicious.

[bboyfromwayback]

Trimmed, jarred and looking all sparkly 😋 These were grown in 3 gallon pots under a ES300. Roughly 5oz of Blue Cheese and 3oz of Wedding Cake. Not bad for a 3 month total grow 🥳

[Jimmynuetron]

Half a pound, very nice indeed. Mine are 7 days now. I have a back up heater for nights, so they’re 18/6. I’m starting hardy hibiscus from seed as well so sleep is good
