Growing Permanent Marker by @premiumcultivars has been a great experience. Being my first time, the outcome has been far better than I could have ever hoped for. Good sized, strong plants with plenty of frosty, sticky, pungent buds. Even when I messed up she was forgiving, and still soldiered on. I would definitely recommend anyone to grow these babies. You won’t regret it. I’ll be growing it again in the future.
The tent material honestly isn’t very good. I’ve literally had to take electrical tape all over it patching tons of pin holes that keep popping up all over it for no reason
What a day for harvest! Happy 420!
The trichomes told me they were ready for a few days I guess. Got a few opinions that said HARVEST them. So, here we are. They have been murdered :( Sad & happy day.
I don’t have a way to measure them wet so we’ll have to wait until they’re dry. I’ve got them in my closet with a fan to keep the air moving (not pointed at them) & a humidifier going. They are staying pretty steady so far at around 60% humidity and around 65f. Best I can get it around really.
The smell is pretty strong. Smells kinda like a gas station in the closet. I didn’t do anything special, like hours of darkness etc. just went in and did the deed. Hopefully they dry nice and slow. Will update more when it’s finished drying and trimmed etc
Lost one of the little things :(
I suspected that would happen as the stem on the one with the completely closed seed looked unwell and limp. I popped another seed so hopefully that one makes it and catches up
@popcornsutton, I actually was trying 100% for awhile back then which I realized was way too much. I’ve messed around with it- from heights to different dims. Back then I’m pretty sure I wound up at 22-24 up and about 80%. One plant seems a bit more sensitive to everything, so I’m always trying to get the light right for her. I honestly think I’ve run the light to high and too close for a lot of the time
@@Growlownoknow, Thanks so much. My first time with this is going much better than I expected. I obviously have a lot to learn, I guess it’s a good thing I got such a nice genetic. She’s not letting me down 🙂
😳 those are looking amazing and honestly looking at the pics I feel as if I’m looking at my plants lol they are identical. A week or two more the calyx should start swelling as the new white pistils begin darkening and receding, as well as more purple coloring continues to show! Exciting times lol!
You have done a lot better than I did, great work!! 🙏
@BigDripFelgo, I think it’s trying to get done or something because the leaves have went crazy and it doesn’t matter what I do. They just keep getting worse. The buds are falling over in some spots and very dark hairs that are shrinking too. No way I am doing better than you LOL that’s funny but thanks 😂
@BigDripFelgo, hey thanks 🙏. I think they’re gonna be trichome covered but not BIG lol. They seem smaller in size but chunky and dense so far. I guess there’s always time but just not seein it so far. The smell is insane just like you said though 😍
Just read your review and your dry weight 😮 impressive results!! Amazing grow, great job. As for the Sharpie scent mines still had hints of it but after longer curing it took on more of a Blue Dream like scent of berries and sweet!
May you continue blessed and continue to harvest amazing results!
@BigDripFelgo, Thanks and yeah it’s crazy. Still can’t believe it. The smell’s definitely changing as it cures. I kept each plant in separate jars and bags because each was a bit different. One smells really sweet and the other 2 seem like they are actually pretty much the same- one was more frosty than the other. The 2 similar ones have a sour .. idk. Still can’t really place the smell tbh. I need more time haha.
@Roberts, I agree! I checked the trichomes again and Im tired of going back and forth with myself on if they look right. I can look at other peoples and say yes or no with no problem but can’t decide on my own lol. I say let’s 420! Oh and thank you :)
What I meant to say on my last comment was, your better off tying them up with something or using some sort of stake to hold up branches when the time comes. Sorry!
@BigDripFelgo, Hahah all good. I was kinda thinking I wasn’t sure what I’d do really. I was like hmm I’m sure I can figure out something when and if the time comes. So this makes sense
“The smell? Yeah.. can’t really describe it but it’s kinda offensive LOL“
🤣🤣🤣 I have one Permanent Marker and it’s strong I can’t imagine how yours will be if your pheno smells similar to mines! Yours are looking great, will you be adding another trellis?
@BigDripFelgo, yeah I remember you saying pulling up outside smelled like a dead skunk or something LOL. Also thanks, I’ve been trying to take good care of them but one likes to be fussy. I’m not sure if I need another trellis. Idk if I even did the one that’s there right tbh. 😂
Good luck with your grows bro, hope your pheno has a similar scent as mines which honestly is f**kin crazy like it has everyone in the house going crazy thinking it’s a dead skunk outside. Or a car fuming lol I think I’m attracting critters outdoors lately! 🤣🤣
When I do a rub test it has a super strong Permanent Marker scent.
