This was a very interesting week to say the least, we had our ups and downs, health wise has been great, plants are loving their extra lights I added, soaking up their nutrients great, hardly any to no nutrient burn either. A few lower fan leaves loosing color and dying, to my knowledge it’s fairly common to loose some at this stage in flowering. Buds are just continuing to develop and grow! Now what may be the problem you may ask? Well unfortunately about halfway through the week I was shocked/surprised/alarmed but also very disappointed to see a male pollen sack on the tallest lady.. continued to inspect all three lady’s and the largest plant had 3-4 sacs and one split open. Sprayed with water, plucked the sacks. And have since been monitoring them closely. Removing any I find. Not sure what happened. I have zero light leaks, temperature has never been over 82 degrees, no major shock or stressing besides topping the two largest plants once and slight defoliation as I go to expose covered bud sites. Just plane bad genetics from being a bag seed and had a hermi? Anyways, since I have found a few more on the tallest and about 4 total on the shortest unknown strain, still to find no pollen sacks on the birthday cake, however I’m sure they are there and just hard to see due to it’s small structure. Anyways this late on in my journey and the last grow I’m doing before I move. (New place means new grow area with no pollen) I’m just going to ride it out and hope for the best turn out.

What does the ice water do ??
Cheesefarmer420
Cheesefarmer420commented5 years ago
@ProfDoty, I actually purchase all of my water, just natural spring water because my tap water has a very high ppm reading, so if I were to use that along with my nutrients I would receive major nutrient burn. I just toss about 8 500ml water bottles with ph balanced water in the freezer for about 4 hours. This typically freezes about 50% of the water in them and leaves the rest ice cold. I then water like normal and take the ice left over and place around the base of the plants.

@Cheesefarmer420, cool ! Do u jus freeze regular tap water ?

Cheesefarmer420commented5 years ago
@ProfDoty, not 100% on the science, or even sure if it works for that matter. I’ve talked to several growers with more experience then me. Some swear by it saying it helps ripen the buds at the end of the flower cycle. Simulating a first frost or cold weather at the end of the plants life in the natural world. This is my first time experimenting with this method but so far I can say I’m pretty impressed. The girls seem to love it, changing colors in the leaves very fast, not only purple, but yellows, oranges, and even some hints of reds. Doesn’t seem to affect the colors of the buds like cold temperatures do, but simply help give them one last push to help finish beautifully. Followed by 24-48 hours of pure darkness and these old timers swear by it.

@@ATOWN, glad you enjoyed! Keep an eye on my journal for the following 4-5 weeks and watch the magic happen! They are getting a very nice frost over them, it’s hard not knowing 2 of the 3 strains, however it also adds a bit of suspense and excitement to see where they all take themselves.

@DTHEREID, thank you! I appreciate it, they are finishing up nicely! Two of the three I actually harvested and are on day #2 of 6 of hang drying in my dry box set at about 60% RH and 64 degrees fahrenheit. Low and slow just the way I like it.
