(2nd try) Eight seedlings for the summer grow (Blue Cheese, Gran Daddy Purple, Girl Scout Cookies-Extreme, Super Silver - 2 ea.)

Hi folks - Two questions: (i) Light: Is a 24/0 light cycle a real thing? If so, when do you go 18/6? or is it a step to 20/4 and then 12/12 to shorten the Veg? (ii) Germination: I have 6 of 8 beans sprouting (paper towel method). Last time was 8 of 9. Is that a normal ratio, 75% to 85%...

Thursday May 23, 2019 - DAY 125 Grow / DAY 83 Flower Letting the other four plants continue to get ripe was absolutely the right thing to do. Chopped three of the remaining four last Saturday the 18th (Day 78 of the flower for Second Harvest). That was two weeks later than the original chop for...

6 oz and one seed from 4 plants. Real nice high. 4 more plants still getting ripe and drinking up that molasses infused water.

Chopped 4 of the 8 today. Was a blast but took forever to trim. I split the harvest to see the difference in the smoke with half the crop getting a chance to have amber trichomes and more of a molasses flush but just for logistics I am glad I did anyway. Now I can get 1/2 drying and in the jars...

Have switched over to molasses

Pretty cool posting on GWE last week: Has anyone here gotten a pound out of a 4x4x7? w/ a 600 watt light? I know there is a lot of wattage math out there. I have a 600 (MH for veg HPS for flower) in a 4X4X7 and I think the tent can take more light and the girls would love it, provided I shed...

Buds are gettin phat! :-)

All those white pistils are turning red/orange. Must be around 40-50% Day 53 of the flower so about 10 more days to go according to the site where I got the seeds so maybe a bit more than that. Tricomes are still clear and look like plastic so will get out the USB microscope this weekend and see...

DAY 88 Grow / DAY 46 Flower Wanted to try my hand at trimming and wanted to get a feel for the girls and these genetics and if the high is any good and well . . . it as been 88 days and I want to smoke something I grew!! LOL So selected a lower smaller branch and trimmed it up and have it...

Got the first few amber hairs this week - ! Made my whole day when I saw them I was on the road and my GF was left to tend the crop (as she has had to do many weeks) and when she sent some pics you could see them. So I busted out the USB microscope tonight for some pics. I am trying to be...

I water every day. Each girl gets 20-22oz. Every other day they get nutes. 14-16 oz at 1/3 to 1/2 strength of the Techniflora starter kit I have and another 8-ish oz of water. I PH the water to around 6. Funny you asked about the molasses! I was going to start a thread last night asking for...

DAY 78 Grow / DAY 36 Flower Still looking great. I gave the buds a bit of a squeeze and they feel tight :-) Hoping I am in the 5oz zone but first grow so who the hell knows? One or two more feedings and I think the switch to plain water is going to happen. Should be about four-ish weeks out...

DAY 61 Grow / DAY 19 Flower Quick couple of pics. Happy to see that I have 20-ish, 3-5in buds (bud sites, future buds?) poking above the screen. I seem to recall reading that is about right for this timing in the grow (right?). The Bergman Gold says it is a 63 day flower so about 1/3 of the...

Here we are: DAY 57 Grow / DAY 15 Flower They are wicked short

Discovered this place a little late in the game. Thanks for the views and advice so far. I just wanted to have a place to share the rest of my first grow. Hopefully it will be of interest. All comments and thoughts welcome and appreciated. From Seed - 1/19/19 germination 600 Watt MH lights...

So last night was an 11 hour dark - right? I added an hour to the timer.

Thank You all for the help! Looks like we are back on track. The stretch was noticeable and now there are clusters starting where I expect the buds to grow. Getting some of that nice stink too.

Hey all. Is a "pause" a thing? Maybe before a stretch? Trimmed and set up the screen for a ScrOG but it feels like the ladies just stopped growing. Is that a thing?

Thanks for the advice. I am less and less sure on trying to spike. I am leaning towards just going for the screen and tucking once I top again. But as you said need to let those branches grow out no matter what. I have another question. There are some really broad leaves at the top that are...
