Truly awesome indeed

[intergalactic_harvester]

thanks allmyown! i am so hoping to flip this weekend!

[intergalactic_harvester]

wow, good nap. girls are wakin up now too, boy are they pissed at me! even being gentle with em they take quite a beating when i do this. but trust me, by monday morning they will have forgotten and by next saturday they will be completely different monsters...again.
as they are getting over themselves i will watch to see where and how many tops are needed to complete the canopy. ive been letting a lot of side growth come in just for that purpose, and i can move and top them as needed. once i am satisfied with the cola count and general placement i will flip to 12-12 finally.
nute change tonight or tomorrow morning.

i really appreciate you all being there with your compliments and support. you guys are awesome, thank you.

[Tika]

So intriguing! I really do watch and cheer with oh & wow! Eager for your next report

[intergalactic_harvester]

mmmm...morning bowl of weedies...breakfast of champions.

good morning GWE!

[alltatup]

Breakfast of chimpanzees....

[intergalactic_harvester]

i can live with that. hehe. my gramma used to call me her little monkey. always finding me 70 feet up the biggest fir on thier property. sometimes id go all the way up where it gets soft. gonna stop there, breakfast got me ramblin and it could go on for a while. sorry

[alltatup]

Harvester, that is so cool!!! You were a brave little monkey!!!

[intergalactic_harvester]

girls are all up and greener than green. no nute change til maybe tuesday. ppms still good at 1000-1100 ppm. only drank half gallon per res last night, probly from being beat up all day.
ordered co2 ppm meter this morning, amazon same day shipping was only 10 bucks so hell yeah. kept it under 100. curious to see if the crazy growth is just bigger lights n feed, or if my pads are producing enough to be an influence. gonna be hard to say tho anyway. first time with this strain, second grow ever...not much to make a comparison on, lol.
the proof in my eyes will come at harvest time weigh ins. 20% yield increase should be pretty obvious even over the shittiest side of average.
probly chill today and roll out the way i started. dont go back to work til wednesday, soooooooooo fk it.

fire it up people

[alltatup]

You got it goin on, prof!!!!!

[intergalactic_harvester]

sometimes its really frustrating being a new grower.
while it seems my grasp on cannalogic is increasing by leaps n bounds, i find myself doing newbie shit at every turn. im just catching my fkups quicker, lol.
after saturdays moves, i stared at them all day sunday. then yesterday i defoled again and started over. much better spread, lowered the screen much as i could. now i will see how much topping/pruning i gotta do to fill out the canopy before i flip.
just once id like to run a grow straight thru without the fumbling and holdups! if this wasnt my 2nd grow, i would call it an epic failure, because I KNOW how its supposed to go! but i am new and have to forgive myself, and im sure i will look back and laugh at my giddy new grower days. felt like a kid thru that first grow, lol.

changed out nutes today. same dose to @1100ppm as i still see enough canopy to support it.

co2 pads not impressing me. didnt come sealed and being activated by humidity n moisture theyre very weak. been experimenting with em. put 20 "new" pads in a bucket misted down, hit 3000ppm in less than 5 mins. put 20 pads in 5 days old and took 5 mins to hit 1000ppm. not too bad for the price.
gonna keep playing with it til i get the info i need to make a cost breakdown and comparison to the name brand pads.
**************
ok, that much was yesterday just never finished.
the co2 pads. no good for this size of grow. after foolin around with em for a couple days, i figure if you put 2 or 3 in a cloner and it would be effective, but to put enough co2 into this tent i cant vent at all. i had like 40 of those things in there, shut the tent and watch it go to 700ppm and then fizzle, lol. oh well, it was cheap enough to be worth testing.

moved more tops around today, defoled a lot this time. didnt want to but god its overwhelming trying to make sense of all that mess. i have 1 more plant to move around again, and once im satisfied with the spread im thinking i will top all main colas to spread some love to the smaller growth filling the holes.
****
thursday now, got a few pics. thanks for lookin in!

[intergalactic_harvester]

ps, thanks man. you try em too huh? might just chalk it up for now but i definately want to set up a system in my permanent growspace(s).

[POKEDSMOT]

I haven't tried them but did alot of research on them. They just can't keep enough ppms long enough to be effective especially if you have to vent your grow space. A yeast co2 generator is better but high maintenance, messy, and smelly and geared for a small grow (2x4). An actual co2 setup tho not cheap aren't horribly expensive.

[intergalactic_harvester]

thank you berrypilot!

[intergalactic_harvester]

little update...

went through and topped at least 80 main colas yesterday. no defol, jusr a few fans here n there. reduced the canopy a bit but filled right back in by this morning. couldnt read my temp/rh when i opened her up, lol. (now its hung 17 inches under the light).
everything is pretty much prepped for the flip, so this is the last time these girls will be seen under flattering lights again for a while.
im going to save myself a lot of unnecessary stress and forget about specific number of tops. im just gonna run it by "feel" and by what i see. its still gonna be just as awesome watching my tent blow up with a shit ton of colas!
over this first week i will let them bush up a little, but pick away bigger lower leaves, prune out sucker growth below before they wake up and shoot up. at the end of the week i will assess the growth and decide how much i need to prune away to control crowding.
they seem pretty unstoppable right now. drinking up 1.5 to 2 gallons daily, each reservoir, and thier color has been excellent in spite of all the recent handling. they really take a beating when i move em around under the screen.

well folks, next update will be bloom week 1!!! thanks for the visit!

[intergalactic_harvester]

thanks tika! yeah, theyre putting off sooooo much moisture. turned on the small fans and im doin ok at 52%.

[Jibblerjoe]

2 beautiful ladies. So green and lush. Very nice

[intergalactic_harvester]

thanks joe! ....and there are 2 in each res!

[Tazard]

Freaking awesome! Have you considered monster Cropping the skeletons after you flush and harvest?

[intergalactic_harvester]

thanks tazard!
and no, i have to shut it down while i hunt for a house. i cant wait to start building a suitable growspace!

[Tazard]

I just got to try it! But when I do I plan to only leave like 10 tops per plant. (Best 10)

[Tika]

Hunt for new house? My feeble little mind went batshit!!!! Ended up with small everything including no dining room..3 car garage...one for grow....runaway feeblebmind wishing you the best of the best.

[intergalactic_harvester]

ya, owners wanna sell. second time this happened now, so its time to lock something down. its a good thing tho, i grew up rural and the last 15 yrs of city life is really taking its toll. i need to go back.
thanks for the luck tika!

[Tazard]

Good luck

[intergalactic_harvester]

thanks taz!

24kt Gold, beginning week 2 bloom
topping last weekend really got em moving. had me taking leaves like crazy by midweek, lol. hey, it keeps them nodes nice and tight!
was up most of friday night supercropping everything that had grown up enough to bend over. i will continue supercropping probably thru this coming week, by which time they should have all got it once.

LuckyAcres your videos helped me so much with my supercropping technique! after SEEING you do it, i bent WELL over 100 tops, splitting 3 and snapping 2. (all survivors, lol)
ive been crushing and splitting like a neanderthal until now, amazing how fast they recover when you do it right! hahaha. thank you lucky!

nute change this morning. transition time!
micro, grow, and bloom stay the same this week, but i switched out calmag and replaced it with koolbloom liquid. (mag/sulfur). thjs starts the week @1100 ppm.
i changed my light cycle to 6 to 6. i wanted to cut out the hottest parts of the day but its just too hard to maintain that schedule.
thanks for checkin us out, have a great sunday mornin!

[Jibblerjoe]

Wow... wow.... holy smokes. ThE plants are so beautiful, great job. Enjoy joy you stash

[intergalactic_harvester]

thank you tika! curious to see how she runs. this strain is much different from the last.

[intergalactic_harvester]

thank you much joe! and i do! sometimes too much i think.

tonight is first night of 12/12 plants vary from 4.5 to 8 weeks old. I bet my screen fills within 3w 🤔

[Tazard]

Oh what tutorial? Can you link to it?

[intergalactic_harvester]

wow maybe my stash is a little hot, but i thought you were following LBH tutorial from the website???

[Tazard]

Oh, yes I read it. It just said that you wanted 6 to 8 inches sticking up through each hole at the end of the first three weeks of flower. But yes that was why I asked about trimming the undergrowth Because it said leave it until the third week of flower and I was like dude I'm going to have mold if I do that. I have 12 plants in there so mines more of a cross of SOG/SCROG. I think he grew his in veg forever. I should be in my fourth week of flower with my bag seed but I wanted to flower the Acid Dough since I knew for sure what it was. The Acid Dough's are only four and half weeks old.
I have also seen Nebulas post that 8-10 heads per plant is ideal for bud size in flower. I guess I am trying everything on my first grow lol.
I do love the box mod. I have some DOT type IV separation fabric and may try something similar to what you have done.

Keep posting for us!!!!

[Tazard]

Good to see you back on today you been awol.

[intergalactic_harvester]

ya, i know, sorry bro. gonna get worse too, shit tons of overtime coming. cant keep up with shit anymore, lol. dont know what im gonna do come harvest time! been up since midnight and pruned for 6 hrs before the lights went out. didnt have time for defol or supercropping. fuck im gonna be up all night again, gotta get that done plus a nute changeout by tomorrow night! goddam the stretch is such a RUSH!!! crazy ton of work doin it like this and with the rest of life gone wild its a beatdown. but...
IT IS SO MUCH FUN !!!
damn, i hope folks dont think im ignoring them....

[intergalactic_harvester]

begin week 3 bloom

short update now, hopefully more later.
let the ladies do thier thing the past week. nute and water consumption ridiculous along with the growth. i had to start adding full nutes to top off during the week. and everything NOT supercropped last week took off like rockets, including the tiny growth below the screen. its not below the screen anymore, lol.
so i spent 6 hrs pruning last night, and things are looking sooooo much better.
pistils are poppin out too, by the way. they are EVERYWHERE !!

finish pruning tonight, some defol, and another round of supercropping. oh god. heres some before n after pics from the prune job, hard to really see from the pics tho.

thanks for looking. have a great saturday!

[intergalactic_harvester]

thanks taz, lol.
fell asleep around 5 for a lil nap. woke up at 1230 !!! hahaha! time to get in there n get busy.

[intergalactic_harvester]

thanks ps!
you will love the results from scroggin! but you will earn every single gram you harvest. and dont go wall to wall inside a tent. unless you are a twenty something anorexic contortionist. or the size of a normal 8 yr old. i will never do that again, lol.

[Tazard]

My tent is 4x8 with flaps in rear. I am only growing in 4x4 of it so I have access on 3 sides though I could handle the 4x8 for access but not likely time 😂. Wish it had flaps on the ends too 😂.
