New Grow

That first pic is beautiful looking with the stacking of buds. Well done MagicMike66

Week 6 from flip

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Well done those are great looking

Curious if you flashed them to take pic before the lights came on. I would be afraid to do that. I know it is only an instant of light and the plant measures darkness but I'm paranoid at the end of grow for any light leaks

A camera flash is no more likely to reveg a plant than lightening of a night on an outdoor grow...and I've never seen that.

 

[MagicMike66]

What bluey said. Plus I only do it literally like 1 minute before the light comes on

A couple of the plants are telling me they’re getting close so I had the loupe out for the first time yesterday. Trichs are showing a mix of clear and cloudy with the odd amber here and there but these are probably on leaves. Harvest day will be in 3 weeks time for at least 4 out of the 5 plants, the blueberry sunset sherbet may take a little longer as she’s still a bit behind the rest.

Week 7. On the home run now. Struggle to fit them all in the picture so I have to zoom out which makes them look smaller but there’s a few heavy duty buds in there 😂 Few sample buds were sacrificed last night so these will be tested this weekend after a quick dry. Hoping they all last another 3 weeks

Those look so good Mike great job. Nearly done looks like. Enjoy the taste test

 

[Bluey]

That's a great looking grow Mike.

Try and keep the outside monster buds that are reaching for the light off your walls with netting, yoyos or similar.

Will you hit the 1lb milestone? You'll go close.

Thanks SoOrbudgal

 

[MagicMike66]

Thanks Bluey. You can’t see them in the pics but the yo-yos are defo in use now for some of the heavy ones! I don’t think I’ll get a lb this grow but might not be far off. It’s weird, my 1st and 2nd grows I hit lb and I’ve never hit it since! But the quality of product is 10x better so I guess there’s a bit of give and take

 

[Bluey]

I'm glad I switched from outdoors to indoors.

The quality of my second grow indoors is as good as my best grows outdoors and I can easily improve on that once I work out what I'm doing with nutes and suppliments.

Will be able to increase yields also with better temp control late in flower....getting there.

 

[MagicMike66]

That’s it man, small tweaks here and there until you find what is your ideal set up then it’s all gravy from there. I can’t grow outside but I would love if I could.

 

[Bluey]

I can grow outside but I'd be better at it if I used a Petri dish than soil as mold grows better that way....it's been like that for 3 years now......and now moving forwards they'll likely burn down over summer.

Another week closer to harvest time. Just waiting on the blue sunset sherbet and pineapple chunk really, they’re both still putting out plenty white pistils. I’ve changed lights to 11/13 and reduced the light to 250/400w to try help them finish for chop ij 2 weeks time.

 

[MagicMike66]

Things are getting fat and heavy in the tent. Had to do some emergency taping and find some more yo-yos to fix a few spilt stems on the blue sherbet and pineapple chunk.

 

[MagicMike66]

Had a sample smoke of the fat banana tonight and the mimosa already and both have blown my head off so all good so far. I cut off a few lower limbs from the banana and critical about a week ago. The plan was to cure them before smoking but I doubt they’ll last longer than a few days in the jar. I’ll probably water the plants once more this weekend and then that’ll be them until Tuesday lights out, then it’s 3 days of darkness until chop on Friday. No idea if it really does anything or not but I’ve done it pretty much all my grows and the bud is always good so it’s just how it do it. I’ve thought about not doing it but if it ain’t broke..

 

[MagicMike66]

No wonder the blue sunset sherbet needed more yo-yo support! 💪🏻
