Chopped and hung for a week before dry trimming. The skywalker was 4.6oz whilst wet and then 2.6oz just before I dry trimmed. I bought a trimming scissors but abandoned it in favour of a small curved at the end nail scissors. That did the job nicely. After a couple of days in jars with regular burping the humidity stayed up at 80% (even with the humidity control pack) so they are back in the box (heard if the weed goes over 50% humidity then it means I’ve started curing too soon and they should come back out????). Not sure the cold weather and humidity creeping into the early 70s is going to work well for drying, but fingers crossed. I’ve just germinated another skywalker haze tonight and will see how my homemade super soil and KNF nutrients compare in weight and taste to this current grow. Oh the orange bud had a few decent buds but not much. Learned the term ‘larfy’ when looking into what to do with those under-developed ones. Next time I’ll be braver about trimming those low down larfy looking bastards as they appear later on in the grow. Two plants in the homemade box was a little too much so will stick to one from now on. I’ll do one more post with the final scores on the doors once all dry and tested. Also I’ve the trim and larfy ends in the freezer. Going to see if I can make a wee bit of hash. Also going to buy hair straighteners to bust up a few buds and see what comes out.

Are you watering - feeding - watering- feeding?

@Indicate, Salt build up is a problem in coco i've noticed. It's actually better to increase your fertigation frequency and use a flushing agent at the end of the week to dissolve the excess salt. Over watering is better in coco than underwatering. I suspect you just have a build up.

@Budfella, Thanks for that tip. It’s amazing how many mistakes I’ve made despite all the information being available online. I’ll look forward to seeing your next diary post.

@Budfella, I’m not actually. Just following the biobizz chart and every couple of days giving nutrient rich water. Should I be rotating, giving non-nutrient water in between?

Love that KNF brotha! Yes that FAA will be really nice a year from now. I have a bucket of fish from 3 years ago and it smells so fresh and clean, and it's stronger now than the first year. Better every year. Also love some JADAM, I have found its even easier than KNF, I still use both now though ✌️ ☮️

@TheFattyMcCoy, Amazing. I’ll check it out on FB. Sounds like an interesting challenge.

@Indicate, Yes, I did some last year hydroponic, DWC, just need a biofilter, there is a FB group on organic hydroponics, the guy on there has a sticky thread with directions on how to make the biofilter, basically you would pump everything into a separate system, like a 5 gallon bucket with holes on top of another 5 gallon bucket and the top bucket have filtration media like coco coir baskets filled with clay pebbles and other filtration. Have to see his set up. Then another pump sending that "filtered" water back to your Reservoir and the rest of your hydroponic system. The beneficial bacteria live in the biofilter and eat up the stuff that gets stuck in the media. It works, it's harder, I think KNF and JADAM is easy in living soil, 10+gallon containers, preferably in a large fabric bed.

@TheFattyMcCoy, will take a look at the Jadam thanks. Have you come across anyone using KNF/Jadam in a hydroponic set up? Be interested to try if possible.

Looks good mate, seen the message and expected to come and see a disaster lol. Get them flushed if not already.

Don't use hair straighteners they won't have the power needed to create rosin imo. That looks like a good yeild and why are you drying in a box? Can you not use the grow area? That's the best place for them. My orange bud are in flower now and FINALLY making buds, 14 weeks in I've got about another 7-8 weeks to go with those lol

@Indicate, nothing wrong with drying in the box, done it myself loads of times. I prefer to hang dry them these days. Obviously that's only if you have the space available.

Nice job! 😎 Congrats on the chop and may the force will be with you buddy 🖖👽

@HappyWeeds, yes a bit longer curing will help hopefully. Though out tomorrow night after trying to make hash for first time so I’ll be all over the hay then.

@Indicate, Maybe it need to be cured a little more. I liked the taste and especially the effect but my Skywalker was from RQS

@HappyWeeds, Thanks. Curing at the moment. Doesn’t smell of much and has a bit of a hay taste but it get you stoned is the verdict so far.
