*=UPDATE=* Smoke Report *=UPDATE=* Harvest Totals **Smoke Report and effects** to follow after cure, May 10th ish. This was my second ever indoor grow, and compared to my last grow I have learned a lot. My goal this time was to get about 1.5-2oz a plant, up from my previous goal of 1oz a plant from last grow. Best part is I got to my goal!!😁 Next goal will be 2oz+ a plant. This was the last time I will be using my homemade grow tent, it was compromised out of recycled Styrofoam, miss-tint paint and glue, it provided me what I needed to get the job done one a extreme budget but it is preventing me from doing more. The main problem I ran into this grow was humidity control/space. The fan broke half way through and I was too lazy to get a new one as I figured I'll wait till I get a real tent. This mind set enabled some mould to flourish and that is why I had to harvest early. I felt if I let the plants go 2 more weeks, I would have hit 2oz a plant, it was only a few grams away, however if I kept going with the mould I would have been down to 1oz after all the rot was cut out from both plants, that shit fucks up your grow fast if you don't manage your air circulation. So the main things I learned: 1) I was underfeeding my plants in there 2nd half of life, thus the buds from the previous grows and this one suffered a bit. This grow does have the most dense buds I have ever grown, but it could have been better. 2) PH is key, I still did not have a PH meter but was blindly altering the PH of my water by adding in some citric acid, not only to neutralize the chlorine but also lower the PH a bit. When I did test the soils PH using a soil testing kit, it was lower then previous grows. This helped get more nutrients into the plants and grow bigger. previous grows the PH was 7-7,5 ish 3) You can get an "ok" harvest off of blue lights, my grow was under seven 18" 6500k 18w sunblaster LEDs, and I thought they would never get over 1oz a plant because they don't have the best spectrum for cannabis in flower, among the other dumb things I do as a novice grower. but they worked out just fine, still going to upgrade in time with proper lighting in the 3500k range. 4) Once the plants get bigger and buds start to becoming more dense, the air circulation is needed, its is not longer optional for a budget grow in a shity homemade tent. 5) Defoliation works. my plants have ruffly the same amount of buds, however the plant that I fiddled around with mainlining and defoliation had bigger fatter buds vs popcorn nugs like the opposite plant. 6) Fungas gnats are annoying, fuck them, use nematodes to kill them flat in there tracks. 7) Getting better at making edibles. :) So other then that, the only real differences between this is last grow is lower PH in tap water, more lights, slightly bigger pots, bit more feed and different genetics from a different breeder. I followed everything else ruffly the same. My own hydro break down from lights alone is below. I did not notice any big difference between the two plants and there phenotypes, I was meaning to take a clone and try and grow it outdoors again but forgot and that was my last of the seeds. I was surprised that one of them was a male. not even hermi, full blown male. I'm not into breeding or I would have kept him, Yields: Plant # 1 - male, killed Plant # 2 - 42.1g bud, 13.15g trim (1 .49oz, 0.46oz) bigger fatter buds Plant # 3 - 45.1g bud, 13.15g trim (1.59oz, 0.46oz) smaller nugs, almost all popcorn. =Overall - 87.2g total bud, ave 43.6g a plant. 26.3g trim ave 13.15g a plant. Smells: plants 2-3 - both smelled the same, in the beginning they had a lovely sexy lemon sent, then in the end it just turned into something else, I think some of the moulds in the tent altered it a bit. Will wait till after cure to see what its like, I noticed some changes in just drying and having them in the jars for two days now. Now that the cure is all done and finished the two strains smell a bit different in there respective jars but there smoke is almost identical. plant #2 or pheno #1 is more of a classic OG Kush smell to me, its earthy, herbal and pungent. Hints of pine in there with lemon bit woody. plant #3 or pheno #2 is more of a bright one, It's sweet smelling with berries in it, some hints of almost floral like in it, not quite rose or lavender something else, not what I was expecting at all. I like this smell better vs the other plant. Smoke Report It took its sweet time but I finally got it in. I myself do not smoke, so I relay on my roomie for this part of the report, they are a long time smoker 10+ years. They have reported that the smoke smooth and easy going, they would say it was a bit smoother then my previous grow of OK Kush CBD and Blackberry. the only noticeable differences between the different phenos is that pheno #1 is more pungent that phoneo #2 but over all the smokes flavours and quality are the same just brighter in phone #2, I feel these are a bit off from the original seeds I grew back in the day from my first ever grow but still high quality. this was rated as a equal balance of sativa and indica feels on smoking but the smells where leaning towards sativa a bit. m0use +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Cost + Time Analysis Of Growing Cannabis. m0use’s Breakdown +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Light Schedule === growth: 18h on 6h off flower: 12h on 12hr off GROWTH: 35days 5am-11pm-on -- 11pm-5am-off --- Cost of kwh with on-peak "20.8c", mid-peak "14.4c" and off-peak "10.1c". 5am - 7am -- 2hr @10.1c/kwh off-peak 7am - 11am -- 4hr @20.8c/kwh on-peak 11am - 5pm --6hr @14.4c/kwh mid-peak 5pm - 7pm -- 2hr @20.8c/kwh on-peak 7pm - 11pm -- 4hr @10.1c/Kwh off-peak --- 6h @10.1c/kwh 6h @20.8c/kwh 6h @14.4c/kwh --- Using the previous c/kwh numbers above I can find out the daily cost of the lamps in the 3 peak periods. growth and flower 6h x 10.1c/kwh = 60.6c/kw * .126 kw = 7.64c off-peak 6h x 20.8c/kwh = 124.8c/kw * .126 kw = 15.72c on-peak 6h x 14.4c/kwh = 86.4c/kw * .126 kw = 10.89 c mid-peak The "h" hours and "kw" kilowatts cancel out and we are left with a value of "c" cents per peak period add all the peak periods up and you get your cost of running the lights in cents per day c/d --- growth : 7.64c + 15.72c + 10.89c = 34.25c/d FLOWER: 52days === 8am-8pm-on -- 8pm-8am-off --- Cost of kwh with on-peak "20.8c", mid-peak "14.4c" and off-peak "10.1c". 5am - 7am -- 0hr @10.1c/kwh off-peak 8am - 11am -- 3hr @20.8c/kwh on-peak 11am - 5pm --6hr @14.4c/kwh mid-peak 5pm - 7pm -- 2hr @20.8c/kwh on-peak 7pm - 8pm -- 1hr @10.1c/Kwh off-peak --- 1h @10.1c/kwh 5h @20.8c/kwh 6h @14.4c/kwh --- Using the previous c/kwh numbers above I can find out the daily cost of the lamps in the 3 peak periods. growth and flower 1h x 10.1c/kwh = 10.1c/kw * .126 kw = 1.27c off-peak 5h x 20.8c/kwh = 104c/kw * .126 kw = 13.10c on-peak 6h x 14.4c/kwh = 86.4c/kw * .126 kw = 7.77c mid-peak The "h" hours and "kw" kilowatts cancel out and we are left with a value of "c" cents per peak period add all the peak periods up and you get your cost of running the lights in cents per day c/d --- flower : 1.27c + 13.10c + 7.77c = 22.14c/d Lights === LED’s I use are 18w each and I have 7 lamps on an aray. 18w*7 = 126w | 126w/1000 = 0.126Kw growth: 18h/d lights on * .126kw lights hydro use = 2.27kw/d flower: 12h/d lights on *.126kw lights hydro use = 1.51kw/d G:79.45 + F:78.52 = 157.97kw for the entire grow.

The calculation that makes sense to me is this, harvested dry weight of usable cannabis buds/trim/keif/whatever in grams divided by total kw used. Could also combine it with grams per total single use costs “anything you used only for this grow and wont reuse in the next, or fractions of multi use items like fertilizers if they ½ full” and see how much you’re investing per gram. "kw" ÷ "g" = kw/g "$" ÷ "g" = $/g I have harvested 4oz or 113.5g on 157.97kw, this includes buds and trim in mycase. 157.97kw ÷ 113.5g = 1.39kw/g of usable cannabis. I’d still try and aim for under 1kw/g. $23.51 ÷ 113.5g = $0.20g The other ratio would have been, 113.5g to 126w = 0.9g/w just shy of the 1 mark. So in total, it cost me 20c per 1g I grew in light electricity alone. Not to bad. legend, kwh = kilowatt per hour kw = kilowatt w = watt h = hour c = cents $ = dollars d = day LED= Light Emitting Diode

Is there a massive difference in colour temperature/kelvin of LED's if the lumens, PAR, watts, intensity and every other aspect you can think of is the same but its temp/kelvin is lower? I use a 6500k LEDs, may mix in or switch to 3000K for better flowers if its proven to work.

Hey @m0use! I recommend at least 3500K-4000K for flowering. You will notice a big big difference, you will start feeling the difference when they start stretching up. And finally, as they will be more warm, you will notice on the size on the buds on next weeks! You can still use your 6500K LEDS while combining with 3000K-2500K LEDs. You will improve your spectrum.

@Dinafem_Mark The seed tin I got these in says "OG Kush CBD" its the black version not the white ones, it does not mention 'auto' anywhere on it, yet the vendor I ordered it from said it was an auto, The plants I grew from it a few years back all seemed to be autos, I started them outdoors and they all popped up and flowered in a short period of time. They did not behave like Photos I grew in resent years. Is the white tin for autos a new thing? or maybe I was sent the correct seeds in a wrong tin from the dealer? Just trying to figure out if I am growing Auto or a Photo that I might have tricked into early flower by mistake the first time round. Was not directly ordered from Dinafem, lesson learned. 😅

Also, does anyone know if there is a FAQ section explaining what the icons mean at the top of the dairy next to my user name? or when the level up happens from newbie to apprentice to other levels? Could not find anything in the FAQ, Mainly don't know what the people icon right beside my user name is, it looks like the "growers" icon on the side of the webpage. but I thought the "eye" was the amount of people who have viewed this page. and the "leaf" for the amount of people who like this grow as well as the "chat bubble" for number of comments??

@DinafemSeeds, The first time I grew them it was my first ever grow, didn't know of this webpage and never logged much details. The place I purchased them from said they where auto, it was online from niagara seed bank, granted they sell both versions of OG Kush CBD - auto and photo, so I feel it might have been a mix up. I did not get the feeling anything fishy was happening, If I remember correctly I had the lights on the same schedule as my other seeds "peppers and tomatoes" for only 8-10 hrs a day. I can see how I would then think it was an auto like I ordered as its flowering started early plus I didn't know much of photo strains at that point. I'm going to change the diaries seeds to reflect this is no longer an auto strain. Will need to up the feeding schedule a bit and determine a time to switch the lights to trigger a flowering period for them. Thanks again for the input!

@m0use, Typically our "Autos" do come in a white tin whereas our "Photoperiod" strains are in our traditional black tins 👍 Regardless the tin should have "Auto" to identify the strain 🙏 Sounds like it's photoperiod mate 🤔 Are they acting like an "Auto"?(e.g. are the flowe ring under 18/6) All the best ✌️ Mark..

There is only one caution I would issue mate 👍 Defoliation work is fantastic but be cautious this far into bloom as it could cause issues with possible "hermaphrodites" 👍 Things do look great with no issue's I can see 👌 Keep the diary update coming 🙏 All the best ✌️ Mark..

@DinafemSeeds, Thanks Mark for the tips! I read that nanners could happen :( The other stuff I was reading said the last week you'd want to defoliate in is its 5th week of flower. As a high risk option for "potentially" increasing bud production. I'm in need of some serious tools before I'll get growing proper. I feel I've botch this one as I'm lacking PH testing in water/soil. the original idea of defoliation for this grow was sure why not, as long as it does not die. Next indoor grow will be next level if I get my supplies in hand/shit together. Still got some outdoor grows to practice with. Cheers

What up bro. Nice and solid grow. I need to know. . . U used 7x 18w cool white led tubes ( roughly 130w -6500k ) Throught the entire grow? Veg cycle and flower cycle? What sort of distance did u keep the light at? Do u maybe a some pics of the setup? I have a 150w cool white led at the moment and was thinking of using it aswell for flowering as i dont have a warm white light currently. I know its not the right thing to use for flowering. Just tryna make do with what i have currently. But if u pulled this kind of harvest from running the cool white throughout the grow. I would be really happy. Also do they get any direct suntime? Or do they just stay in the grow box?

Hey, @AfternoonBlazer, If you look into the other weeks on this grow or my other grows you can find most of what you are looking for. but for easy reference see the answers below. yes I used 7 X 18w 6500K Sunblaster LED's at 1950 lumen's daisy chained together on a side-by-side array. look at grow question in this dairy to see its spectrum. yes from seed to harvest throughout its entire life cycle, only these light. entire grow, veg + flower. I Kept the light around 9-12 inches from the plant. sometimes the top tips got closer but not by a lot. No pics of previous setup, it was a Styrofoam slabs glued and painted into a box. flip though some of my other dairies before this one to see other photos of it to get an idea of its shape. it was approx 1.5' x 1' x 5' - L x W x H it totalled 5m squared ish. not big at all. best for autos or one photoperiod plant. you should be fine with white LED's for your first few grows, its what i did as well. If your just starting out upgrade parts slowly and see what works for you, My lights output have a good spectrum and lumen rating for generalized growing. You should check if yours are in the same ball park. The LED light I used are designed for growing plants vs LED's designed for ambient lighting in a room. I kept the lights around 9 inches from the plant, they don't burn at that height. can go as low as 4-6" but not recommended. No outside sunlight for any period of time. just in the grow box from seed to harvest. Best of luck on your grow. Lots of things can happen, use your grow questions and research your ideas, read through the peoples opinions who disagree and agree to get a full viewpoint of the situation as its easy to become clouded or bias of your own ideas. This helps you determine why this may or may not work for yourself. failures are a stepping stone when learned from, don't fear/focus on them :)
