So this was the final week of my 2018-2019 winter grow. Prior to the final week I drained all of the nutrients and replaced the solution with my flushing solution of Florakleen at 10 ml/gal. I had harvested one of the Royal 👑 Gorillas 🦍 a few weeks ago due to herming, so I was only cutting down the last 4 plants in the garden. While I do not have any dry weights yet, I filled 12 hangers to dry which is about 3 more than I ever have in the past. My goal for the round was 40 oz’s, and while I suspect I have hit that goal, I will not know for sure for at least another week of drying, and about 2 weeks of curing before I tally final weights for the room. The bud quality was also some of the best to come out of my garden and I suspect that the Jacks Hydroponic powdered nutrients had something to do with that. The only gripe I had was that the stalks were very rubbery and easily breakable. This can partly be blamed on the manifolded plants which require much more support, but I also did not use any silica during this grow. Silica has been a staple in my garden, but I decided to see the effects without it. Well, in DWC I think it is really important additive as there is no natural silicate in the medium. I will be atting this back into the mix next round. “Keep It Safe, Keep It Green, & Smoke 💨 It Up!!!”

Hey there! Wonderful grow you have there! You will not be disappointed by that Timber's fixture, absolutely top level leds. DWC afficionado here ✋

@Nutria, my best highest yield for this setup was 37.25 oz’s. I’ve learned a lot since then, so provided I don’t have any unexpected wacky ness I think 🤔 I’ll hit that nunber. My largest yield was with 3 plants in the room, so with 5 as long as they are not overcrowded I am pretty confident.

@MagicMikesMeds, 40oz are achievable, 1.5gr/w is a common result with this kind of leds. If you look at the emitted spectrum you can notice a lack of IR wavelenght (≥700nm) in white leds, thus it is suggested to run higher temps than you would usually do under hps for example. Follow a VPD chart with a ±1c temp difference between air temperature and leaf temp.

@Nutria, this is my 3rd round growing under the Timber Grow Light COB LeD fixture so I am more than aware of its excellence. My goal for the 5x5 room is 40 oz’s, and I should have the perfect room temps to make a run at that number...

Buddy these are looking phenomenal and love the whole rig. Got some reading to do on the rest of it for sure. Good luck to the finish dude👍👊

@TheBudWhisperer,thanks I’ll have to check out that book. I’ll be getting in to start the day 40 defoliation in the next few hrs.

@MagicMikesMeds, exactly! I do the same and am constantly tweaking or trying something new every cycle just to track a new data point. @Dudegrowsweed just rec’d a book on his diary which I just read called marijuana cultivation reconsidered. If you like the plant science end of things it’s a great and layman’s terms informative read👍. Glad to see someone taking the defo into late flower - it’s a reassuring👊 Cheers😎

@TheBudWhisperer,I can understand your concerns about the late Flower defoliation, however, there is still significant leaf material intertwined in the buds to perform photosynthesis. I’ve noticed that the buds that have direct exposure to light have the best growth and development. By getting the light down further into the canopy through defoliation I get much lower bud development then you would had you left the heavy coverage of fan leaves. Controversial yes, however, my best run weight wise was one in which I religiously defoliated my plants every 4 days from the start of flower through to flush....people argued with me that the method was only hurting my yields, however, the numbers just don’t lie. I believe in data and vigorously track the data from my grows to see what works best for me in my garden. It’s science !!!

@Eauderay,the 2 different gorilla 🦍 genetics (Gorilla Bomb & Royal Gorilla) are both starting to throw out new pink/purple calyx’s. At first I thought that all of my plants were herming, due to the fact that it looked like nanners at 1st, but as they started to develop I could tell they were new calyx’s that we’re expanding the buds. 2 of the 5 plants are roughly 6 feet tall at their highest with the other 3 ranging from 3-5 feet. This weekend should be the final defoliation as I will be completing week 6 this week and that puts me at 42 days. Should be the final defoliation and that will leave roughly 4 weeks to fatten up ( I like taking my plants to full term - 70 days for these strains... “Keep It Safe, Keep It Green, & Smoke 💨 It Up!!!”

@MagicMikesMeds, looks like 5/6 weeks because they are big! I can smell them from here!

@@grzesiek,much appreciated. The garden is starting to get that late Flower 🌹 smell to it. Another 3-5 weeks and it’ll be chipping time 🤪🤤

Damn nanners- good call on the pull but it sucks nonetheless...

@MagicMikesMeds, no doubt dude. Move along👍

@TheBudWhisperer,yeah it came down 2 weeks early and I have already dried all of it. I trimmed half and then just ripped the other half from the stalks to dry. I’ll run the plant through the bubble washer in a couple of weeks so in the end I’ll just have lost a little weight in trichomes. Oh well, it happens to the best of us...

Nice work mate! Good pruning, these ladies will give you long and heavy buds!! Really want to see how they evolve!

@Stress_Bud,I was going to start to flower them but I noticed a Calcium deficiency popping up, so I’m gonna do a full res change out and give them another week to eliminate the deficiency

I couldn't help noticing that you've placed lots of sticky traps. If you actually have pest problem, allow me to suggest you adding diatomaceous earth combined with propolis and pyrethrum. If rapeseed is in the mix it gets even better. This totally exterminates pretty much everything that flies or crawls. Peace
MagicMikesMeds
MagicMikesMeds
@vovaTHEKUSHMASTER, the sticky traps are strictly preventative. Last round I noticed an uptick in fungus gnats in my garden mainly due to the fact that my geographic location is loaded with them and it was the right time of year. My medium is Growstone GS1 and is pure hydro, so adding diatomaceous earth gets really messy. I have found that covering my medium with aluminum foil and placing the yellow sticky traps next to the main stalk of the plant prevents the gnats from getting into my medium and eating my roots. So far this round, there are a few gnats on the traps, but I don’t see any flying in the room so it seems that they are achieving my desired results...
