During week 11 my treasures are doing AWESOME! The flower development is AMAZING and the TRICHOME PRODUCTION is in FULL SWING! The plants are GLISTENING with TRICHOMES...I love it! π This is the best proof that the new LEDs from SANlight, the EVO-series, work GREAT and that the spectrum and intensity of the lamps is PERFECT for GROWING CONNOISSEUR CANNABIS! The plants are nearing the end of their flowering cycle and need to be FLUSHED now. This means I STOP GIVING ANY NUTRIENTS and only water them with ph-neutralized (ph=6,0) water with some enzymes from now on. This will make sure the plant uses up all nutrients it has left in the soil and in the leaves and starts to get yellow. Only a plant that is properly flushed and FREE OF NUTRIENTS can later be smoked well. An unflushed plant will have a HARSH FEELIN IN THE THROAT when smoked and will burn to very black ash, while a FLUSHED PLANT smokes smooth and leaves grey ashes behind. Only FLUSHED CANNABIS is PROPER MEDICINAL CANNABIS, which I am growing here for myself!
My problem with THRIPSE has gone away as well, the predator insects from KOPPERT have done a fine job and have eliminated the pest.
The aroma of the plants is FANTASTIC now, a strong sweet smell is coming out of my tent every time I open it...ππ
I cant wait until the plants are finished and ready to harvest...π
@Compassionate_Gardener, Mahalo for your kind words, man! π I loved this round with my new SANlight EVO4-120 lamps...they id an OUTSTANDING JOB! Aloha! ππ
@Compassionate_Gardener, Mahalo for your kind words, they are much appreciated! Yes, this grow WAS AWESOME and the BLUE MINT is a fantastic plant! π
@GrownwithLED, WOW...what an GREAT outcome! The buds look AMAZING...the amount of trichomes is INSANE, especially on the Blue Mint plant! Well done...GREAT job! ππ
Good looking Hydro setup! Nicely done! I have a few runs of Purps under my belt. Always see those GIANT leaves. Love the growth and taste of that strain! Enjoy! π
@LegacyMarketFarm, Hi, there! I find it to be AWESOME...simply THE BEST! She produces a sweet, grape-candy like aroma, that transcends into the flavor when smoked. You can taste it in the inhale and exhale...she taste sooooooooo DELICIOUS! Thats why she won several High Times Cannabis Cups. I can STRONGLY recommend her! Aloha, GrownWithLED.
@GrownwithLED, How did you find the terp profile of it ? I have always had interest in growing a batch of this strain. If you got the time check out my diary & follow my profile. Let me know what you think! Happy growing man
hey there,
Great set up you have got there!
Always curious about the Sanlight, they have plenty power for your growtent.
But I think you should hang them 20 cm higher and see how that works out !
I think you will like the results because as your pictures show they had a lot of light stress.
More is not always beter, myself bought recently a Telos 010 pro and it burned all my seedlings @ 120 cm,
I had to learn my ways around a quality fixture that's all.
Now? I'm loving it, not only in yield but special in the quality of the buds.
Be Well and grow it!
@SanderanderS, HI, there! Thanks for your kind words and also the tips about the lights. I had the SANlight EVO4-120 lamps dimmed throughout veg. and beginning of flowering, therefore I dont think they had light stress. After my plants showed yellowing and some crispy leaves I checked my ph-meter and calibrated it again. It was off by a full PH-point! That means I fed them with ph=5,0 instead of ph=6,0 and that brought my soil out of balance and the plants could take up nutrients anymore...
