Week 11 D78 coming along nicely, have increased her P-K hoping to get some nice dense buds compared to the larfy hydro CBD. Took a few leafs off not much, will clean her up tomorrow to give her that extra push and hopefully get the light down to lower growth. She has about 3-4 weeks left.
11/3/22 Kinda happy with her progress over the past 2 days. She has put on about 10% bud mass and sites are starting to come together up and down the nodes. Was able to add my dehumidifier to my room brought the RH in the room down from 75-80% down to 55-58% and in the tent it's holding at 65% And 21c in the dark and 26c when the light is on. Hopefully I'll be able to bring them numbers closer together on my next grow. 4c temp change is ideal.
So, got a tip that I should be aiming for big swings in temp as it gets closer to harvest. Bit tricky to do so without causing unwanted strechting in my TDA which is only started stigma 14days ago and still has some growing, so sadly I'll have to apply this tip on my next grow. As there shouldn't be a massive gap in stages as TDA was/is weeks behind.
Thanks for reading

Those photos in the dark, They are starting to cake up fairly nicely. I think as long as you do the dry / cure right even if they are not the densest buds you should still have some great smoke. Having managed large grows & been around big bags I prefer smalls myself. One of our buyers that pre-ordered most of the crop from the big facility I managed, Literally would break down a pound bag and somehow steam out the moisture from all the stems & weigh the stem before and after and bitch at us if there was any major weight accounted for by this. At the highest level, people are incredibly neurotic almost to a fault. up to 100lbs was 1750 per pound so I guess they have good cause to be. I always found regardless in bulk purchases the stem loss from large quads was not worth it. I prefer bags of smalls that literally have 0 stem weight to them you get much more in the end you would be surprised. In this market high volume sales trump high per cost sales, You can do better offering ounces of premium smalls at 50-60 a bag. People pay a premium for big buds when really all they are, Are smalls connected to a stem that you can't smoke. If the weed is good its generally good all the way through & when you hand trim high-end product you trim it TIGHT there can be no gap in the buds or you break it down. Generally, only the tops are held as big structure buds or tops off your side branches which all get packaged up into quad packs.
@gottagrowsometime, I did not make it on purpose! It was a bag seed we got from a bag of nuken buds. the plant through out 3 seeds though I will gladly gift you them as nobody else has shown interest in it yet and I still have 1 more original seed that came from the bud like its twin that I germinated. DM me friend! It finished incredibly fast around 7 weeks tops and did not resemble nuken at all in aroma or flavor.
@LegacyMarketFarm, ah well if you are buying a 100lb then yeah I'd say your at least getting 1-3lb of stem right? Great you have some1 who can take all that. Oh btw I seen this was your own seed you made for part of the grow. I seen it on a comment you wrote. What is the seed like can you DM me what it is, I'd be interested in making a small order in a few wks. Know it's nothing compared to what you sell and might be more of a burden. But I'd love to try or even hear about it.
These do not look bad AT ALL man good work. Once they begin to finish their vertical growth completely remember to start opening up your temp gaps between lights on and off to beyond 10 degrees less lights off and a little more each week until harvest. Keep it up man I know you can do this one!
@gottagrowsometime, Our pleasure π we are always happy to hear this!!! We'll definitely enjoy watching you grow!! Looking forward to watching your progress! πͺ
@Fast_Buds, Thanks for dropping by fast_buds. I love your plants. Not once have I had issues with 'em they grow and germinate to perfection. My go 2 breeder from now on. Strawnana is my next grow. Thanks for taking we time.
@Fast_Buds, Hey, I'm really impressed by your seeds. The genetics are solid, and are very resistant to toxs and so on. Pleasure to grow. Have 3 dif FB strains, 1 of them GZA the new strain. Can't wait to get the whole 3 dif strains up and running. Thanks for dropping by and excellect CService.
