Trying to dial things in better now I just have one strain in the tent.
Looked up Medicgrow8 specs and should have plenty ppfd at 23" above the canopy for early veg. Shooting for 500-600 ppfd. Don't have a light meter, but used the online specs.
Popping the light back up to 18 hours now the autos are out of the tent.
Lots of space and lights for the ladies.
Focussing on light and humidity on this grow.
Using VPD tables and recognizing I need more humidity. Got the humidifier blazing. Got the extraction fan and internal fans set to kick in if it gets above 78%
Trying to get closer to all the scientific ranges to create a little paradise for the ladies.
Big Chop! Chop!
Opening up and training the plant a week or so before going into flower.
Took a lot of leaves off.
Lost a branch. Snap! Snap! Broke a couple and had to tape one up.
Needed to defoliate to create airflow and start shaping the ladies.
Stretching out the lower colas across the base.
Fimmed the ends of the longer stems to get a split going for more colas.
Recharge added to feed after stripping 30%+ of the lower canopy.
Will turn to flower in a week or too.
Notes: slow growth due to the lower heat in the tent. Okay with that because the Lecky bills have been huge with all the price gouging going on.
Lollipoppin.
Was getting some gnats enjoying the microclimate. Defoliating required to allow the ladies more space to breathe.
Top dressed bloom mix, worm castings and a little bit of biochar.
Soaked all the ladies after their defoliation with ph'd and calmag'd water with Recharge.
Another low maintenance week.
No defoliating. No additional LST.
Continuing Mammoth microbials with calmag'd water.
No top dressing for the last two weeks.
Added new fly traps to catch some loose gnats.
Still got 3-4 weeks to allow the colas to fatten up. Watching the trichome development closely.
Slight defoliating on leaves that are yellowing out. Some buds starting to fatten up this week. Other plants need more time.
Keeping an eye on the trichomes which are developing and nice and milky.
Harvest getting closer, but not quite ready yet.
Wet pluck and trim in preparation for harvest.
Very sticky. Great trichome development.
Buds really got a lot more dense these past two weeks.Very fruit forward and pine.
Onto the chop and dry soon.
Getting frostier on the way to harvest.
First plant is curing and has real gassy terps followed by pine and fruit.
Never in a rush to harvest, but definitely getting close.
Last three plants harvested.
I let them go long as the frost was just getting better each week.
Drying in the tent 65° and 60% RH in the dark fan blowing along the floor.
Smell is super fruity with a little gas.
