[SpaceBucket] First Grow - Queso y dulce

Good luck with the grow ;)

What a beautiful little plant. She is turning out great! You must have a strain from Antarctica. That's some chilly temps.

Should I do something with the bottom yellowing leaves?

You have trained her nicely! She has great bud sites that are pretty clear of shade. You will have some very nice buds when you are finished.

This looks like its coming from space! You should call it Area 51 Thumbs up

Good luck on the Space Bucket. I started my plant out in one. I love those things! I got hooked on the hobby and bought a tent though so I didn't finish off the grow in the bucket. Growing an auto in the bucket is a good idea. She will flip to flower a lot faster and you won't have as many space issues. Really LST this girl! You have a small space to work with and you need to keep that plant trained!!!! You might want to invest in a canvas smart pot in the future. They have handles so you can pull the plant out of the bucket a lot easier. It gets tight in there.

Looking wonderful, thanks for sharing ;) I'll keep passing by, keep it sweet! jaypp

Interesting grow! Keep up the good work

Nice work getting that plant trimmed and trained in your space bucket. She looks great!

Nice photos this week! You have a few damaged leaves in the first photos. It could be the fan issues you were talking about. It looks like you trimmed those off. New growth looks very lush. Those squat, ruffly leaves are good and bad. They are very short, so they don't take up a lot of space, but they are really wide and shade producing. Keep up the defol and LST during the stretch. I wouldn't worry about the pistils. My last grow was a photo and it took almost 4 weeks for pistils to show! If you are seeing a lot of vertical growth then you are right on schedule. Keep training throughout stretch so you can have room for those beautiful buds in your bucket!

You are really filling out that space bucket! It looks like every available space is being taken up by foliage. She is looking most excellent this week. Those big fat leaves are going to be trouble for the lower bud sites. You can still trim them off, but take your time. A few leaves here and there, and the plant won't even notice they are gone!

She's fattening up because she thinks its winter! 😉 Your girl is looking real close to being done. Have you looked at the trichomes to see if she is ready for harvest? You are 8 weeks into flowering. You should be close. You've done a very nice job in this bucket grow.

We're always learning mate, well done with your harvest! ;)

@ElPresidente Good job taking a picture thru a loupe. I see only clear, immature trichomes. Breeders’ schedule recommendations should be taken loosely, as your conditions are different than theirs were, and to some degree it’s marketing bullshit. You’ve been cautioned wisely already by @Quexos to keep an eye on trichome development daily! Harvesting early is tempting because you’re eager to enjoy your hard work, but stay the course until you see at least 1/3 amber and you’ll be rewarded. I prefer half for a rock solid stone. All amber becomes cannabis Ambien. Cannbien. All clear is like a weak dose of mescaline. It feels like it’s going to get awesome once you really get off, but you never do. It’s all giddy anticipation and it’s gone. If you want to be STONED, wait for amber trichs

Listen to @Stick re watering. In flower give her just enough water. And late in flower, when there is no more actual growth but only maturing, let her go a little extra thirsty between waterings. She will sense her dehydration and respond with increased essential oil production. FROSTY! Lo que queremos - What we want. Sigue como estas. You’re doing fine. She’s got a ways to go yet. And you have night air temp 46oF!?! The F stands for F’ing cold, hermano! Late in flower that means awesome colors!

Hi @ElPresidente! Several small waterings are always better, this helps to avoid overwatering and will allow you to have a better understanding of how your plant reacts to water/nutrients/dryness. Happy growing! 👊

@ElPresidente is a lofty moniker. I like it. Denotes confidence with dignity rather than braggadocio. En cual país quedas? LST job is admirable. For a bucket you’ll do well it appears. ¡Buena suerte, señor!

Gratz on the harvest! You are right, your next grow will be better than your first. Each time we learn new things that makes us better growers.

Looks good ! Nice nugs!!!

She is looking great! Your LST work is going to have such great benefits. I'm looking forward to seeing this bud canopy.
