She actually started flowering half way through last week. Lots of nice bud sites developing and I definitely am smelling a bit of "the funk" as I like to call it. The smell has been managed so far by a 4" carbon filter, but we'll see if it's up to the task in the coming months. Regarding autos, I was reading that they should start a growth spurt before they stop growing to let the buds develop and swell. I hope that happens soon because she looks like she can keep stretching for a while and I'm not sure I have the room for her to keep going.
I started moving some of the trained branches so the canopy fills out a bit better. I think it's still going to take another week of moving everything around, but I should end up with a dense, wide, even canopy.
I started feeding her by using the lowest recommended feeding with the Big Bloom (1 TBSP/gal) and Tiger Bloom (1/2 tsp/gal) fertilizers from Fox Farm and feeding ever other watering. If I notice any nute burn, I'll water twice before feeding again.
9/4 - I actually decided to try to give her a bit of a stronger feeding next time - 3 TBSP of Big Bloom, 3 tsp of Tiger Bloom, and 2 tsp of Grow Big. Might be too much, but wanted to see if i could get a bit extra out of her before it's too late
@Gutismoke102, Thanks - yours are looking good too! Looks like they're both about the same age (or I'm 1 week behind). None of the other grow diaries I've seen of this strain looked like mine except for yours so I'm going to be keeping an eye on that.
@TheUk420Show, Awe man - I wish. They were still pretty short, around 24" (61cm) but the LST really helped them produce.
Final results are 118 of the dense, good smokable buds, and 46g of airy/small buds in the hash pile. Totaling 164g or 5.85oz. Harvest diary will come soon along with a smoke report.
Great diary man! Id say your issue with the lack of smell/taste was definitely due to the cheaper lights and not even anything to do with the light output bc you wouldnt have yielded as well if that was the case but the actual light spectrum the LEDs put out. Howd pressing the bubble turn out though and how were the terps on that?
@DrWeird, Must have been an alright return if you were trying for diamonds and sauce man fair play 😂 But the upgrade will be sure to reflect in the next batch, I went from shitty 150w setup off amazon to the spiderfarmer sf2000 and sf1000 a couple months ago and still cant believe the difference, the new samsung chips are rediculously bright for the energy they use😵
@ElMangoLoco451, thanks for the input! I'm also thinking that when the temps went over 80F for an hour or two a day, that also contributed to this. Also noticed the leaves tacoing a bit too.
Well I'm glad I upgraded to the Kingbrite for the next run
The bubble wasn't bad, until I tried to get diamonds using the jartech method and basically decarbed it. Well.. next time will be better 🤣
