Oct.7 day 68 buds are still stacking and getting harder every day & trichomes on all plants are now milky except for Trainwreck #2 which has turned into a long flowering sativa. Powdery mildew has gotten a little out of control on most of the potted girls so I started the long & tedious task of harvesting 1 plant per day starting with Blue Fire #1. Being a one-man operation I’m not looking forward to all the work that lies ahead however judging by the look and smell of these babies, should be well worth it in the end.
Oct.8 day 69 cut down all the main colas on Blue Fire #2 & Strawberry Banana #2. Giving the lower branches a few more days to finish then chop chop and into the freezer. 😜😁👌
Oct.10 day 71 cut down all the main colas on Godfather OG #2 and keeping the rest for fresh frozen water hash. Also started trimming Godfather OG #1 eight days after she was harvested. First time drying in the garage which is detached from the house and is not insulated. Average temps in there this week were low 50's-60's F and 55-70% humidity. My concern was temps being too low and the fluctuating humidity. So far after eight days of hang drying in the garage with 2 small fans lighty blowing directly on the colas, God father OG #1 was dry and ready for final trim. That worked out better than I hoped. 🙌
Oct.11 day 72 Trainwreck #2 got chopped whole and is hanging. I would normally trim it up quite a bit before hang drying but I need a break today.
Oct.12 day 73 Strawberry Banana #1 finally got chopped today. I shot a video of it in time lapse which compresses my five hour chop time to about one minute.
That concludes the harvest of all my outdoor girls this season. Stay tuned for more photos, final weights and reviews.
...till next time
Thanks for stopping by
See ya and stay safe
If it starts from the bottom up it’s a calcium deficiency, if it starts from the top she needs more water! ( from my experience of course) hope this helps friend & happy growing!✌️🏼🌱
Those are some nice trees! Are you using RO water? Just wondering if what you're experiencing may be due to toxicity rather than deficiency. Just a hunch, but if you don't have a lot of coco in your soil mix and not using RO water, it may be too much cal mag. Also, if there's an excess of potassium, this can cause cal/mag lockout. Not sure if any of these may be factors. Are you checking pH and EC/PPM? I'd use the power of deduction and try to rule out all possibilities before making any major adjustments. Good luck and happy growing!
@Peeman, Happy to help in any way I can. Not sure how much I helped in this case, but I find that sometimes I am more helpful asking questions that making suggestions. I am still learning and I will be watching to see what your findings are. Hoping to learn a thing or two for myself! Good luck and happy growin'!
@FoTwenny, hi there and thanks so much for your reply.
I am using R/O water and growing in Foxfarm ocean forest soil with a little extra perlite. PH is usually between 6.2 and 6.4 and I calibrate it twice a month. Last PPMs may have been a little high at 1350 but that number is still lower than the manufacturers feeding chart. I’m using future harvest full line at just under full strength. Thanks again for your knowledge. I’ll try my best to get her back on course. Cheers
Beautiful grow and your home looks beautiful as well I’m going to do The Godfather og next I’ll be following along to see how it goes I really like your growing stile you have some big plants I no Ontario has a short grow window really great grow buddy nice work
Happy growing and good luck with the rest of your grow
Thanks @simps, I just harvested some indoor Godfather OG a couple of weeks ago and it's FIRE. You're gonna love it
Good look with your grow and all the best👊
Thanks @ChitownCannaChica, You can always try to grow autos outdoors as they stay relatively small and you can bring them indoor at night. cheers and all the best
