End week 9, day 63 and the harvest has begun. I pulled 2 PurpleLemonades on day 62 and placed in Quarantine (darkness) for 48 hrs. The other 2 will be pulled and put in the dark when I cut and hang the other two out to dry for the next 7 to 9 days. The plants are gorgeous and buds are plump and frosty as, you know what. Trichomes are mostly cloudy with about 5-10% amber. I am wanting a cerebral high for daytime use this summer and this should fit the bill nicely. Buds came out in nice big nuggs, little bigger than a golf ball, and dense as heck. The branches are droopy and bobbing all over the place. A few branches have snapped from the weight. I think they will average about 112g each dry nuggs. I'll be happy with that, it should get me through the summer. Also, have some OG kushes and some GG4 and a Tangie finishing up in the next few weeks too.
I also started my Fall strain this week. They popped up on 4/24 (day 1) and I will be starting a diary soon. Look for it soon... I'm really excited to see this strain (not much info on it so I hope it lives up to its description).... Garden of Green/GDP Auto X Gumberry Auto... sounds yummy and I am wanting something that is purple every time.
The PLs gave me some gorgeous colors, pink and violet and some purple, just not like I was hoping. I'll be back to update this week with a few more picks after I pull and hang the others to dry, then it will be a week or so before the dry harvest report. After a 2 to 4 week cure I'll update with a smoke report.
Thanks for turning on and tuning in. Be sure to Follow and Bookmark for final results. All comments and questions are welcome.
Peace and health
I got some leaf clawing going on and I'm not sure why? Only 1 of 4 plants that are under the same conditions is showing the condition. The only new introduction has been some cal mag in very low doses (1ml/gallon). It doesn't seem to have slowed growth in any way. Any thoughts?
@smowkabowl Hi mate it looks to be root stress related maybe the substrate is too warm under the surface and is causing issues with adequate Oxygen supply to the roots
My suggestion would be to add a little cool water slowly to effected plants roots then apply some type of mycorrhizae such as Great white from plant success or similiar product
@Grey_Wolf, I appreciate the prompt reply to my help question. What is the ideal temperature of H2O to feed your plants? I've always heard between 68 - 75F and never below 62F. Peace and health
@Grey_Wolf, that is about 64-65F. I have a well that is about 65F (18C) coming out of the ground. I have always thought that was to cold and I would acclimate it to room temperature. I will start feeding at temps closer to 65F and see how things go. Peace and health
Sympa! 👍 Mais la tienne n'a pas eu de problème au démarrage, la mienne a stagné les 2 première semaine et ne fait que de se réveiller. Je te souhaite de t'amuser avec ta jolie demoiselle.
Let's grow 🤘😜
@WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm, right on man, the first one I grew I stunted and netted about 50 grams or so. It never purpled out for me though. I think I solved the issue for these four. Peace
@WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm, Yeah, it's happened to me before. Once that happens with an automatic you have to decide whether to continue and spend the energy to finish, with diminished results or pull and start over only having lost 2 or 3 weeks time. Peace
@northernMike, yikes! No wonder your growing that Candy Cane auto, winter is in full blast north of the border. I may have to start that strain in Sept/Oct for an Xmas treat. You're right the Lemonade looks good anytime of year. Peace
@CaptainCream, appreciate it mate! Yeah, that last one has some trippy colors goin' on. A nice long dry and cure and I'll be chillin' all summer long. Peace and health
