'Glookies #2' by Barney's

Hey! I'm not doing to bad on these updates, being high af and all😃. I always did them before I toked, but this is much better...what the hell have I been doing this whole time... Anywho, Imma rambling already. Here's an update on Glookies on Day 19 of Bloom (I am waaaaay off😅. Almost Week 3 in these pics). Following time stamps and this is the correct day, so here's the Deets: The Good: -Just like MS, this girl is stacking very fast and I haven't seen this early girth before. Had other plants like it, but didn't look like this till at least Day 28 (Checked my old photos and grows to check this). Her nutrient schedule is working really well for her, it seems. She has a great color and texture, moreso then the other ladies. A Perfect green hue that these pictures do not really show. Next week I will throw in some photos of her behind a black sheet so colors can pop. -Terpene profile has also started with this girl. She is the weakest of all four so far, but she is picking up on a daily basis. Feel like I smell pepper, earth and some cheese(?). Whatever she's doing I feel it will be a great taste/aroma once all said and done. The 'Meh': -Tent acclimation, that's it. Everything else is on cruise control👍 Notes of the Week: -It was near the end of this week that the FloraMax8 came in from FuturVert and I was able to make some moves and changes to accommodate QS's ridiculous growth rate. She is now on her own under a single SF-2000 in her own tent, dead center. Pretty much tapped out the buffer space with the lamp so the dimmable SF is being used at 65% and 45K Lux at 16-20" above canopy. -MS, Glookies and Gelato have all been moved over to FuturVert tent now and am currently running 65% at 45-50K Lux (I know lux isn't a hard/good read, it's just all I got and I use it as a benchmark). I feel I've dialed in the light but not the environment in the new unit, just yet. -Not too happy with my Inkbird automation right now. Devices were calibrated but fell out of whack. Two devices side by side will have a literal 3-4 degree Celsius difference and that's just not cool... These are now being used as benchmarks too and I've kinda gone back to manual acclimation to cover my ass. I see that I need something more accurate so I can actually walk away and be comfortable with the device(s) readings. That's just not the case right now. Looking at TrolMaster as a new means of control and automation. -When I get busy in other areas of my life, even if it pertains directly to cannabis, I tend to lose sight of my own projects and make mistakes. This has been happening again and I'm taking a step back for a bit to focus on what's important. I want/need my medicine and would like to pay a little attention to my end of things before over-stepping again. I'm an obsessive fella and can fall down rabbit holes very quickly. When my focus drops it takes time to get it back and it would be best to stop doing this, lol! I'm good, girls are good, current schedules are good, just see the writing on the wall and know where I'm heading if I don't buck up. -Have a little project for an EggHunters challenge w/ a Skunk #1. It's, ahhhh, not going too well😂. 14 days old and looks great today, but I stunted the crap out of her and she's maybe 6 days old looking. Have three weeks of Veg before I have to flip for the contest rules and I really don't know what to expect. Just for funsies👍 *FuturVert FM8 Update (Power-Point)*: -Stupid powerful lamp man. Going from 240W SF's to a massive 660W FSG is a game changer and I have to be careful with this. Running at 24 inch buffer at 65% and this is achieving the 45K+ Lux rating in and by itself. -This lamp is one of the first test models with WiFi Dimming using ZigBee Ports and controls App. This may be a feature and integral in future, but for now it's not within the system and part of my job is to run some tests to ensure there aren't any issues. So, Day 11 (Jan 29th at time of typing) of running this girl and I've had zero issues....well, a couple, but it was my input errors and lack of reading instructions! 😂 -With WiFi Control I may set the lamp intensity, on/off times, fade in's and outs (Sunset/Sunrise), Alarms, special schedules and even frigging monitor power draw and savings by plugging in your kWh rates... I had no idea it had this much going on with it and I thought this was all just for dimming. Nope, it does a lot of fun things😄. I can even make it dance and should take a video of it running it's calibration test, lol. It's fun to stare at and play with. -So, Zero issues, plants are praying, no fade or light damage and it doesn't put out much heat at all. I don't have an IR gun but can see that this 660 puts out about as much BTU's as a single 240W SF. No fans or anything, just well engineered heat sinks to pull any heat up and away from the board. More then impressed. -Will post actual listed specs next update if you'd all like to see them. This is getting long, however, and I'll stop here. Thanks for checking her out everyone! I didn't say this in the other entries, but I have nowhere to take photos anymore, after the move to the new room😂. There is literally nowhere to do it and they're way to big to get 2/3'rds of the plant in frame, ha! Soooo, in tent pictures for awhile now. I remove the other girls so there's a focus on the one, but it definitely isn't optimal. Another thing I'd like to work on and feel I'd enjoy getting into photography more/already am. Just a phone, a couple apps and any black backdrop and it's totally doable👍. Cheers all and have a great Week! Enjoy the girls and your fruit. I will catch you on the other side. Peace👋✊
