My PH issue from last week has now been resolved. I recalibrated my PH meter. The PH from the runoff is 6.5 with 445 TDS. Its pretty clear Im getting closer to harvest. The trichomes are clear to milky. I will harvest when it turns about 20% amber or so. I have not amended the soil throughout the grow. I only added Black Strap Molasses once a week during flowering. Next week I will just water and keep an eye on the Trichomes.
The odd thing is that the plant that I almost gave up on during the start of the grow has loads of buds. It really came around. I learned a lot during this grow. I will run another with the 2x2 tent and SF1000 spider farmer. Then I will upgrade to a larger tent and light. Right now Im thinking about a 2x4 tent with a Mar SP3000. However, I really do like the Chilled lights as well. Thanks for reading. Any suggestions with my grow would be deeply appreciated.
I let the harvest dry too long. I went ten days at 50% RH, 78 degrees temp in my grow tent. Way too hot. The RH in my jars was 40%. I placed Boveda 62% and a hydro stone in the two jars in an attempt to raise the RH. I ended up placing the jars in the shower to bring up the RH. That worked. After two weeks in the Jar, I have an RH of 55%. However the taste and effects are mostly gone. The take away from this is that its ok to cure when still slightly moist, but once its dried the harvest is toast.
