These girls are just days away from harvest! I will closely monitor their pistils, calyxes & trichomes throughout the week so I can determine exactly when to give these girls their two days darkness before chop!
They are all starting to fade out really nice and the smell just keeps getting stronger each and every day!
After this last feed/flush I will only give these girls R/O-Distilled Water with nothing added whatsoever.
Please enjoy the videos I posted of the girls! Thought I’d add some music to the videos vs loud condenser microphone picking up fans 🤣 Only videos for now, I will post actual pictures and macro shots throughout the week before harvest.
Update: 9/7
The pistils and trichomes are about right where I want them. I’d say I have about 90% Cloudy, 7% Clear & 3% Amber Trichomes. A majority of pistils have gone from white to amber and have retracted. The girls have stopped drinking water so I transferred them to my darkroom to finish off for two days. After the two days I will chop and hang at 67°F @ 55%RH for 8-10 days until the stems begin to snap.
@FreshCoastOrganics, I’m pretty sure you know that auto flowers only need 6 hours of light per day. They are programmed to veg, flower and harvest by a set time so 2days of darkness is not necessary for auto flowers but do you bro good growing
@Gutismoke102, Could you please elaborate on why? I’ve grown probably 50+ photo strains but now dedicate all of my time to autoflowers and would like to know if there is a specific reason why autoflowers don’t benefit from darkness? Thanks bro! Good to know!
@MrHightimes, I’m trying to get better! But the Filmic pro app is amazing for improving video quality and the cheap clip on lens I got from Amazon does a really good job at making it seem like a real camera! All cost me less than $40 usd!
@FoTwenny, Thank you! I’m guessing that Pheno #2 will be the strongest (she’s the densest and has the most trichomes out of the three). Pheno #1 is definitely the most vibrant, just not as dense or as full of trichs like #2. Pheno #3 probably won’t be too impressive, but out of the three she has the most blueberry/fruit like scent but way less trichomes than the other two.
I will find out soon though! About 85% of the trichomes on #2 are cloudy so she is getting close, the other two need a little longer but these all should be ready in just about a week or two! Thank you for checking in!
@Canna96,thank you!! I’m a little worried about the big one, she’s getting droopy but I’m still trying my best to determine what’s going on with her. My other girls is starting to go through slight N and K deficiencies so hopefully the bloom feed helps her out. Hopefully she turns out well! Thanks for the encouragement!
listen!!!! i'm learning to make vids and yours are really nice!!! those plants!!!😵
The vids look almost like a matte filter?? is that premiere? or is that just a good recording?
GL on the contest! and the grow is greaT!
@MrHightimes, it’s a pretty damn good lens for the price! I love the macro shots it takes too! Now I just use that for checking my trichomes, it’s way easier than using my microscope! 24fps gives that cinema like footage but if you plan on slowing down the film for any slowmotion shots turn the FPS up because 24fps is awful slowed down 😂
@TheOtherSide, hey brotha! Thanks for the compliment! I’m hoping they swell quite a bit in these next few weeks before Havest but so far I’m happy with their progress. Have a good one man!
