Grow box size is 30" x 24" x 60". Diamond foil on interior. White floor and ceiling. Currently using G8 LED veg/grow 140 actual watts. G8 LED Bloom booster 75 Actual watts. (It's not being used in veg). Started off at 36" high. Dropped to 30" on day 7. Additional Co2 supplied with Exhale bag. 2 muffin fans provide intake air and 2 more for air movement. 4" carbon filter with 150 cfm variable speed extraction fan. Using 2.2 actual gallon air pots filled with 75% FFHF, 12.5 % perlite, 12.5% coco coir which was properly cleaned and buffered with cal-mag. Also mixed into the top 2" of soil 1 TBSP pelletized lime. I made a shallow 1/2 cup depression in the soil surface and filled with Epsoma seed starting mix. Using ph corrected distilled water with KLN added I wet about the top 5" of the soil. I Dropped 4 AKR seeds in a shot glass of water had nice tails after 48 hrs on 3 of them and planted them. One just barely cracked open I transferred this to a moist paper towel it produced a small tail after another 3 days then it was planted. Using clear solo cups with hole in top to increase humidity.
Depends on what the trichomes look like. If there's a nice mix. I'm going for 95% cloudy/ milky /5% turning amber. Even after harvest they will still ripen a few more days. I'm sure some will still be half cloudy also. I'll look specifically at both the older trichomes deep inside the buds and the older bud growth. Some of the newer bud growth near the end can fake you out a bit. I'm using a lighted 40x jewelers loupe from amazon it work perfect.
Truely beautiful work all the way through trimming and drying.
The nuggets looks so perfect, Patience and passionate. I can learn from your diary but can never hope achieve this level of meticulous care.
@Med_in_Tropic, Thanks This is whats great about this site we have access to all this great info. We learn from each other. All your grows are coming along well looking forward to seeing a harvest from you in a few weeks.
Hi your plants look good, I am a first time grower I tried to grow before and my plants died. Now I have a better understanding of what is takes. Now question I bought advanced nutrients micro grow and bloom when should I start using micro?
@Philindicus, Thai police is prosecuting weed with a vengeance. So I am learning these techniques.
For example, we can’t host sow weed directly in the ground and hang them up in the shed after all is done.
I think the most difficult of us is the techniques on caring for seedlings and vegging. Most people here never pay attention to grow light and light hours. We are used to having sun and rain.
I am still on my first grow and I look for setup details that I can learn from.
Excellent grow, excellent journaling and excellent results! Well done! 👌 Will be following you in future grows as I like ur style and u seem to have the green magic touch.
Thanks for sharing with such detail, lots to learn so its greatly appreciated. Going through your weeks, trying to see what i can do to help grow my own ladies :)
