Overall very happy with the outcome! This was my 1st grow and I went 100% organic using only KindSoil + Coco Loco with carbon filtered tap water. I used citric acid to adjust my pH down as needed. Zero synthetic fertilizers or chemicals used. I had a scare when I thought she was starting to herm on day 69, which prompted me to chop her down. Turns out they were swollen calyxes, not seeds. Ideally, I would have waited a bit longer for 50% amber trichomes, but she was close enough to where I wanted her to be, so no worries! After 6 days of drying at 48% - 55% RH, the branches snapped easily and the outer edges of the buds felt dry and crisp. At that point, I trimmed it, weighed it, and jarred it up for the cure. At the time of this writing, it is day 3 of the cure and smelling so amazing! I was pleasantly surprised by the yield. 1 plant. 773 grams (27.3 ounces) wet. 101 grams (3.6 ounces) trimmed and dried. This strain was a pleasure to grow.

only 1plant at sf4000?

@Doktorholland, I hope so! Monster is what I’m aiming for haha. 🐲

@Automaniac,this plant be a monster
Automaniac
Automaniac
@Doktorholland, yes, for now. This way I don’t have to worry about upgrading my light when I decide to grow more plants at a time or when I get a larger tent. In the meantime, I could always dim it if needed. 😎

Fruitgrowerweek 3
That's a huge amount of light for one plant, are you sure it's not the sf1000? Would be the reason why she's not stretching...
Automaniac
Automaniac
@Fruitgrower, we’ll see how it turns out in the end. πŸ˜‰ She seems very healthy. And very good progress compared to other diaries of this strain in soil.
Fruitgrower
Fruitgrower
@Automaniac, that's very excessive bro. As I said before this will be the reason she's droopy and not stretching how you'd like. πŸ‘Just an observation
Automaniac
Automaniac
@Fruitgrower, yes it’s the SF-4000. 😎 It’s pulling 454 watts from the wall. I have photos of the light and setup under Week 1.

Looking great! Humidity is low though, i'd bump it up to the higher 50s! My first girls were more droopy with 40% RH due to makeshift closet and once i got a proper setup and 50%+ they were mad perky n stoked! Otherwise making really great headway into the beautiful girls! πŸ‘½

@xbabybitchx, thanks! I recently started watering every 3rd day. At the 3rd day, the pot feels very light and the top inch or two is almost completely dry. 64 ounces of water at the 3rd day wets the soil thoroughly, but not so much where there is runoff. I think the watering is dialed in now. πŸ™‚ She is always droopy when the lights come on, but she eventually perks up very nicely about halfway into the day period and stays perky until the lights go out. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

@Automaniac, OK so i'm still also a noobie, this is my 4th grow, But when I look back at your previous posts some things stand out. You are watering pretty frequently and your heat is high. Plants can get droopy n sad when over watered as well as underwatered. Sticky line to walk haha. I would try increasing your humidity as well as letting her dry out a bit more between watering just to see if there is any change. My first grow I thought iIwasn't watering enough and turns out I actually was drowning her. Good luck!!!! :)
Automaniac
Automaniac
@xbabybitchx, thanks for the kind words! I appreciate it. πŸ™‚ I thought about humidity too. The humidity inside the tent rises to 55% for 6 hours while the lights are off. However, the plant droops even more so during that time, so I thought maybe low humidity isn’t what is causing the drooping in my case. Thoughts?

Was the bud airy?? Did you bud wash or something to increase wet weight ? I’m just blown away by the 28 oz wet weight to 3.5 oz dry.. it lost 87.5% in dry and cure, damn. gorgeous buds tho! Congrats
Ezzjaybruh
Ezzjaybruh
@Automaniac, that makes sense.. I’ve learned the hard way and lost a few ounces to mold going in jars too quick, even with a huge boveda bag in there .. makes sense!! Amazing looking buds tho like I said!
Automaniac
Automaniac
@Ezzjaybruh, this was my first grow and I was so worried about the buds getting moldy that I erred on the side of caution and ended up drying the buds a tad bit longer than I should have. They have been curing for 2 months and still seem a bit too dry. The smoke is still a pleasure, but looking back the yield would have certainly been heavier if I popped them into the jars a day or two sooner.

I agree with GreenBean / be careful not to overwater. As I learnt from a pro on this community, if the leaves are drooping and look puffy between the veins you have almost certainly overwatered her.
Automaniac
Automaniac
@Tripledrop, it’s also worth mentioning that she starts drooping while in the dark period and then perks up again, every day, about 10-12 hours after the lights come back on. From what I’ve read, it’s not uncommon to have droopiness during lights out. Just not sure why it would take her 10-12 hours to perk back up after the lights come back on.
Automaniac
Automaniac
@Tripledrop, great tip on looking for puffiness between the veins. Thank you! 😎 She is really starting to grow very fast now. Looking at some LST soon.
