Runtz auto in Viparspectra 450W dimmable

[Jarret]

Hello,

Growing with a Viparspectra 450W dimmable in a 30" x 30" Green Hut. ILGM Seed. Runtz auto. 5 gallon felt pot with living soil and Coco Loco. I've been watering every 4th day with plain tap water and a bit of grow nutrients and CalMag early on then on to Flower with CalMag. 70 day matk on Wednesday. If I can post photos I'd like some comments. I have wee aliens in my weed. Oh yeah, with 5 nodes up I topped the plant.

I'm new to posting. The information below the post is somewhat correct.
wanted to add a few more photos. These were a week ago.

Those last 2 pics in your last post worked fine. Buds look healthy apart from minor yellow tips.

First photos in 1st post are too small

I agree on all acounts.

 

[Jarret]

I posted photos on another site and they looked great. I need to see about increasing the quality on this site.

Day 68. Looking good. Trying to keep the humidity level up. Running at about 37%. Bought a small cool mist humidifier, but it's not enough. New pics today. I'm trying to figure out the bottom tag/info part. I need to change the info. Everyone have a great day.

Won't be long now Jarret those are some good looking triceps ooops trichomes I mean hee hee. Hey I maybe a 66yr old lady but i ain't dead ba da bing ba da boom

Today I'm at day 74. Looking good so far. Thinking about flushing soon. Tell me if I'm wrong.

Oh my them trike are a turning, wont be long now.

 

[SoOrbudgal]

How are the leaf are they curling or getting yellow? We also like to view the whole plant just saying it's nice to see all the plant. But yes looking at these trichomes you are close to harvest. Flush to me means just plain water and no more nutes for couple weeks. I let soil go completly dry then chop. But i also make sure no more white hairs are sticking up.

 

[Bluey]

Just based on those pics I'd be watching them closely every day now in view of harvesting very soon or even now.

 

[Jarret]

Yes, leaves Turing yellow. Hope it's just old age. Lol. Flushing today with plain water. This grow was in Living Soil with a small amount of Dyna Grow, grow and CslMag during veg and flower. Never had any runoff. I will today. Posting photos. One is our wee bit of snow in the mountains.

Oh, and I topped this Runtz Auto at the 5th node.

Also, can anyone tell me how to edit the New to growing tag below every post?

Have you tried editing your post signature? I think you should be able to edit out the 'new to growing' text when you change your signature.

New photos day somewhere between 70-80. So want to hang it up but scared I'm trying to rush it.

Im seeing alot of amber but what do the plants as a whole look like. I seem to know when a plant has given its all and is degrading. It seems to get that dark frosty orange hue from the LED lights. I usually don't wait until its eating its self to make the chop. When im near the end all i do is water a few days and dark time for 2 and chop.

I concur on the amount of amber, but I think I'm still seeing some clear. My time frame may be off due to setup. I did top this Runtz early on. My last grow was left on a bit long I believe. Waiting on my first grow where I say "damn that's not bad".

 

[SoOrbudgal]

I judge ripeness on each plant of course. I look at middle sides not just tops of plants when looking at trichomes. It's in my experience that you won't get all this or that but 80% of what your looking for. If also the leaf are yellowed and browning curling in it's getting that time to pull the trigger.
