So far so good. Considering that this is my first grow and I have only online resources for comparison I believe I'm doing great. It has been a very stable grow from the beginning up until now. In just a few months I grew from seed to Veg several strains and selected the ones I considered more resilient and strong. Unsure if it's a strain trait or was just unlucky with some of the tested strains. As I have little experience I will not elaborate on that matter. These are clones that I'm running. Bubblegum seems to be the strongest strain as in terms of growth as well as easy to clone. LSD cloning was in comparison slower in rooting and weaker. For cloning I'm using a mist machine and box built by me. Tested different cloning techniques and this one is by far the most effective. Did lots of research to get up to this point. Would appreciate your comments and tips if you got any. Props my peeps.

Hey there Pablo, If you've recently flipped your lights , I would give them another week or at least make sure that the stretch is well and done with before stressing the plant with defoliation. defoliation seems like a nothing for us, but it's HST for the plant so it does get some sort of shock right? Still though, i would defoliate, not a lot though, really take out the most egregious fan leafs, those directly shading flower nodes. plants "feel" the light on those nodes and do send them more energy getting them buffer. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Well Scrog is in place cleanup done. Since it's the first time I'm doing this I am bit concerned if I over did... I'll let you guys be the judges of it. I have increased feed as I noticed that some of the pots were really dry although the plants don't show dehydration. I'm actually amazed that they really smell like Bubblegum 😁 If you guys have any advice it would be very welcome. That's all for now. Happy growing Fam! 👊🏼🙏🏼

Sup ppl? Previous week did defoliation and setup Scrog. Girls bounced back really well from defoliation. Ran into.some complications with the automated irrigation system. The nutrients clogged up the pipe and some girls were really thirsty. All fixed and all looking good. As ambient temperature increases so did watering. Good progress overall.

This last week I actually watered the girls only with PH regulated water without any Nutes to allow them to breakdown the nutrients still in the medium and do kind of a fresh start today. Today the tank was filled with all the Nutes as usual and hopefully they will make good use of them and fatten those buds. If only you could smell the Bubblegum 😁 What do you guys think of alternating between Nutrient Water and Plain Water every week? Props!

Everything going according to plan and as expected. As it is the first time I'm making comparisons and it looks good. Still a few weeks to go. I'd say about two but we'll see. Setup remains the same. Tried a microscope to show you guys the trichomes. Note to self: Get a decent microscope.

Looking great I guess. Time to start flushing. I would guess about two weeks should be ready and dry and another 10 days curing. Will let you know how it turned out. 😁

The ladies are giving all the signs that they are ready to be harvested. Leafs yellowing. Most hairs are now dark. Under the microscope it looks good. Been flushing for a week now. As I still see some under developed I will let it run another week before harvest. Looking forward to this!

Week 13. Harvest

Happy Harvest Day!

Unfortunately got some bud rot in one single bud that was leaning against the mylar but it ended up spreading Infecting 2 plants Total loss around 250g Fortunately it didn't spread further. Good timing to harvest. Not weighted wet hence the info is missing. All of the remaining buds were closely inspected as manucuring to prevent further spread while curing. Curing moist is closely monitored and it is 50%. Total healthy bud 600g. Used two scales, second scale not so precise in mg so I rounded it up about 3g.

Hey there Pablo, hope i answered your question, anything else you need just drop me a message 👊
Pablo_Chacon
Pablo_Chaconcommented6 years ago
@CRiSPrGrow, Yes definitely. I'm also going to increase the water feed system so we can see the results and adjust accordingly as it is Summertime although air humidity is quite high the increased temperature also increases the amount of moist the air can carry but I'm digressing. Let's see how it goes. 😁👊🏼

@Pablo_Chacon, i dig the experimental mind ! are you gonna post your results on here or? 🚀

Pablo_Chaconcommented6 years ago
@CRiSPrGrow, Hey LaBOSSANOVA thanks for the fast reply. Makes a lot of sense but I see some contradictory opinions. As this is my first time I will defoliate half of the grow and the other half I will leave it as it is. Next week I'll be cleaning up and adding the Scrog and I'll post some updates. Cheers Bruv!
