Week 1- Seeds arrived stealth from MSNL. Germinated in Jiffy pods. Directly under a 75w cfl. 100 percent sprout rate, all an inch or more by weeks end. At this time I had no light. No tent. Everything was in the wind. I wanted to go led but found out most of the on market stuff was bs, so I decided to order cree components from rapidled.com

Week 4 - Everything is going well. Fans and everything else looking super green with a ton of spring in its step. At this point I have recieved my led conponents, tent, fans, de/humidifiers, and mostly everything else. Getting ready to transfer to the new flowering tent as well as top and flip the exact same day. I have gotten a lot of criticism from this method, howevwr it has been shown to work well for others as well as myself. Everything was from 12-16 inches by the end of this week.

Week 11 (week 7 of flower) - Going strong. I have tapered all extra supplements such as KoolBloom and am slowly lowering total nutrients daily as I finish out these last two weeks. All 12 plants great, smells are amazing and it looks like there are some excoting things going on.

Week 12 - Coming near an end to our little GDP story. Everything is looking great. I have started lowering the amount of nutrients daily. Still feeling out when they are going to end, I don't want to hold back too much and stunt them. If they aren't done this is still a big part of the flowering. Some people. cut back and flush too severely, this hurts a yield. I am starting to get excited, you?

Happy Harvest Day!

Genetics were horrible, this company sells e rate strain genetics that herm out and have horrible pheno traits. Dont let them bs you, they use fake profiles and diaries to try and pump up their rep and fix it, however do not ignore theor rating and spot. They are where theyare for a reason. Sellong bobo 1990 sterdam genetics. I pulled these numbers due to a state of the art hand built cree cob setup, nutrients, and growspace. I would never waste light on these ever again.

Not water curing, close. But simple to wash the buds beforr drying. It is very controversial, however it does not harm the buds in any way. 1x 5 gal warm (1 cup baking soda_ 1 cup lemon juice) 1x5 gallon hot water (1 cup 3% peroxide) 1x5 gallon cold water. Removes vontaminates, any possible mold,dead skin cells. It also makes the drying ptocess quicker 3-4 days No trichome lose nothing. :)

@FarRedTurtle,yes this is what I've seen. 😄👍👍

FarRedTurtlecommented8 years ago
@JUNGLE_B4RNS, No faults man. You are actually right in a big sense. See the lemon and baking soda is all your suppose to use, and 2 other reg water buckets one cold and one warm. That is how Doc Bud the creator made it. And that is exactly what you have seen people doing. The other video which was most definitely Jorge Cervantes that you saw is also correct for killing and mold or parasites.Being said I made a hybrid was and do both. Only thing I change is I keep the dipping to 15 seconds, def not soaking in the peroxide. What it does for me is this. 1.Skin cells, any on leaf contaminates from watering, pet hair or dander is immediately destroyed and cleaned. 2. Mold. People make the mistake thar if you dont see it, it isnt there. Biggest mistake ever. Thats how mold happens in cure. So I just dont play with it. I just get her done all at once. No lemon or bicarb taste or smell. No trichome loss and they dry in literally half the time due to scientific diffusion, the wetter they are faster they have to mwet halfway to be dry, kinda like colder water boils faster. Lastly people freak about peroxide. Its just another hydrpgen atom no biggie. :)

@FarRedTurtle,No, it's my fault I've should read twice before sending the message. I've seen on YouTube a guy doing it, but without the peroxide. And another guy using only peroxide to get rid of mold. I've tough this washing method was for outdoors crops to get rid of all the insects stuck on the trichomes and all kind of other parasites.

Hey Farmer Brett, thank you for your message. I really appreciate it and the time you took to write it. The app is really great and should be coming along soon. There are a couple of small problems but that is what testing is for as you know. It makes me feel better reading your message, I have gotten a lot of messages and crap about things I feel seem to be kinda obvious. Like a plant being 3000cm and stuff like that. It is sad that some people cant help but to take ot there. I will never instigste, but will always defend myself. I apreciate your kind words sir. You have a fantastic day. What I grew is so fire. I did a dropper test and its at about 25%, live rosin is pressing good and the flower cure better each day. Have a good night.

KonopCh Id appreciate it if you kept your mouth runnong to yourself, you are ignorant and dont have a clue what you are talking about. I am a beta tester for the app. It has been having nunerous problems. I. e data is being changed upon saves, picture formatting and size errors. Next time maybe inquir about your discrepency vefore runnong your mout on someones hard work. I am a didavled veteran an work hard for what I do. I also am going out of my way to make the dotr and app better at apparently my own expense. Have a good one drater.

I have a plant at about week 4 and it looks about the same size as these do at the same age. I was wondering what your yield per plant was after having put them in flower at week 4. Thinking about flipping mine and curious if it's worth it or to wait a couple more weeks.

FarRedTurtlecommented8 years ago
I top and light switch the same day. I go for 14-24 inches. You want 4-5 good sets of branches, that way they will top out like Jewish Candlesticks baby. Also dont be a girl. If the branch doesnt look like ot will make it to the even canopy. Cut it. IMMEDIATELY. When you top otit the plant sends a signal to the branches to grow. Dont waste that signal on a bs branch. BEST MARIJUANA TIP FOR EVWRYONE. YOUR NOT GOING TO HURT THEM!!! DONT BABY THEM THEYLL BE WEAK.

Looks superb , those led s look good , did you make them ?
FarRedTurtle
FarRedTurtlecommented8 years ago
@BigDaddyK, Yes the best tip is do not buy a product manufactured by another company making money. Buy the components from Rapidled, dhgate, etc, not ebay lol. Series wiring and the math is very basic. Go with cree over vero and bridgelux in my op, more support and I believe they are better. Dont overkill, unlike the old mars and etc these really are an equivelant, so my 600 watt really puts out the same amount of light a 1000 watt hps wpuld. Just do the math for your space if you have trouble rapidled is amazing and will help you. Mars and viparspectras are greqt for vegging and keeping mothers. I use a 600w mars for veg which is really pulling 300.

If no one else is going to say it I will. Hey far red turtle thanks for being a beta tester spending your time without great results. People like me would appreciated an app. And without someone like you running it through a test it would end up going nowhere. So for that I thank you..... as far as your grow, it looks like you got a lot of nice tasty buds. Good job well done. Enjoy and don't forget to GROW BIG

hi man! 1.....what a wanderfull grow!!!!!!!! amazing!!! i ask you: you say - Far red light, 2 initiator pucks by @RapidLed and @Growmau5. These lights allow my plants to initiate flowering in about 5 min vs 2 hours. Huge difference. i don't understand , What mean this: These lights allow my plants to initiate flowering in about 5 min vs 2 hours?

Yessir. Built it myself with components from Rapidled. com, not affiliated. Lol. Wasnt oo hard totally worth it. Yields like a 1000 watt hps. :)
FarRedTurtle
FarRedTurtlecommentedweek 118 years ago
Good question. What it means is, when dark comes your plant takes time to start producing flowers, that time is called flower initiation. It tends to take about 2 hours for these chemicals and signals to start. When using a far red apectrum light, the plant is notified at a much quicker rate by literally sensing the "end of day" kinda like a sunset The plants signal isnreciebed almost instantly. It has been shown to change initiation time downnto a couple of minutes. Thus allowing for more usage of applicaple dsrk time instead of it being wasted. :) Therr are nay sayers, Lol. I dont care in 2017 some people think the earth is flat.....
