Getting this journal up mid grow. This is my first run ever. I threw in some bag seed I had laying around while waiting for my order to come from Seedsman and now they’re all growing together. We are on day 29 of 12-12 light schedule, so stretching seems to be done and now just focusing on keeping them healthy and fattening up those buds!

TreeTent310started grow question 7 years ago
All my plants have purple stems on the leaves at this point. They look totally healthy besides that. Not sure how to resolve the issue or if it is not even big deal. Just don’t want to negatively impact yield. Any advice?

This could be a pre-sign of magnesium deficiency, but your leafs would not be in such good shape. Since all your leafs are looking healthy, and not showing any other sign of nutrient deficiency, this is probably strain related : no worries ! I'll be around, waiting for your next update, until then good luck with these beautiful girls bro !

Does anyone have any trimming advice? My neck and back and even hands hurt from trimming everything and I still have one left to go!! Easily taking me 3-4 hours per plant. Any suggestions!? Also do you prefer wet or dry? Pros and cons of each??

Theres no pros or cons to either, other than personal preference, there are no studies to show one is better than the other. Trimming is a pain, and I know as I've done many big plants at one time needing more than one person to get involved. The best advice I can give is to get set up before hand and comfortable. Set up the TV, Ipad or whatever it is you want to watch or listen to. Next thing is positioning as your back will be the first thing to give out, try to sit up right as its easy to slouch down but don't. Use a pillow to support your lower/middle back. Pull off the big fan leaves before getting into trimming. Then begin trimming for 30 minutes or so, then have a little break, have a drink and something to eat and repeat. Theres really no secrets to it just hard work unless you have a bag trimmer or auto trimmer but i prefer to trim by hand. Hope this helps. We all go through it. Also, I find wet trimming easier as the buds are still swelled up. when dry its more hassle to get into.

I lost a bit of size while drying my latest grow. However, the buds were a bit more dense once dried. I'm not sure how curing will affect the buds. This is the first time I'm curing. I'm thinking they will be a little larger due to the increased humidity from the Brevas.

generally speaking i find wet bud and dry bud to compare at 20-25% weight and volume. that said, my current plants are growing rocks. literal rocks. and i am hopeful they do not shrink that much =P

Nice Nice work man. I tried to order some of those seeds but something's going on on the site today

@Chance, I know Seedsman is having a 4/20 sale with lots of freebies and discounts that could be part of the problem! Lots of people placing orders! Good luck I would recommend Seedsman they have all kinds of strains at good prices have ordered twice with no problems...

Great week! Those buds are amazing! You are getting close! My girl is starting to show brown pistils too. I'm figuring 3 weeks for me. I agree with your review of Seedsman! I ordered from them and had my seeds confiscated by customs. I contacted Seedsman and they sent me out new seeds in a really, really stealthy package! They are great! Our drug laws, not so much.

Man that is a great harvest! I wonder if Blueberry Auto will grow out the same way? Your trimming is very professional. Even with my glasses and tons of light, I can't do that well. Sucks getting old. What was your trimming and curing process? I wet trimmed then and left them on their stalks then hung them for a few days in the dark. Then I dry trimmed and manicured them. After that I put them in mason jars with a 58% Breveda. I've been burping them once a day for the last few weeks. I've smoked a little out of the jars, but I'd still like them to develop a better flavor and aroma. I ended up with a whole container of this awesome kief. It tastes really fresh, and immediately whacks me in the head!

@TreeTent310, Thanks! I didn't expect to win. There were so many great harvests. I actually ended the competition in 5th, but something happened and I was in 3rd then 2nd by Monday morning. I think some people refused the prizes so I was moved up the list.

@TreeTent310, Thanks, but I don't stand a chance. There are a ton of good harvests this month. My back was killing me by the time I finished wet trimming my last grow! After drying, they required a lot less manicuring. My mason jars smelled like fresh grass for the first few days, but now its completely changed. I think your buds look very well trimmed. Nice grow overall. Gratz again! If you are entering newbie contest, and you should, good luck!

@TreeTent310, I'm growing some seeds that I bought from Seedsman. They are Royal Queen Autos. They didn't hook me up with any free seeds when I ordered. Next time I'll pay attention to the breeder specials. They really came through when my seeds were confiscated by Customs in LA. They reshipped them in an extra discreet package!

Thanks @Quexos, she came out pretty good. Definitely the most visually appealing of all the girls!! Hopefully she smokes/tastes as good as she looks/smells!! The seeds were cheap too I got a pack with these Jack Herrer and White Widow for 3 each for like 15-20 bucks. Highly recommend Seedsman!

Looks very nice! Have you noticed (last photo) that the most dramatic color change in this strain occurred where the fan was blowing/cooling the plant? I wonder if placement or method of lowering the temperature during the last two weeks would provide your crop with the 'blueberry' colors everyone is looking for? I've been thinking of including a bucket of dry ice & have the fan blow across the bucket to both cool the entire tent as well as supply additional CO2. Something to think about?
TreeTent310
TreeTent310commented7 years ago
@R_Owl_Mirror, thanks man! Temps in the tent were fairly consistent high 70’s to low 80’s. I have seen others get some really dramatic color changes when dealing with cooler night temps. Definitely interested to try it out/interested in growing purple/colorful buds not just leaves! If you DO try your dry ice experiment I would be curious to see your results!!

These are some great looking plants! I love the way the buds formed. I really like that round flower formation. Those buds look really dense. You are going to have a nice harvest.
TreeTent310
TreeTent310commented7 years ago
@Quexos,thanks so much you’ve been following along the whole time! They’re all pretty much done and yes indeed they are looking quite dense hopefully they maintain density through drying/curing we will see in the next week or 2. Today is day 70 of 12/12 I’m thinking chopping no around 75 or so depending how the ladies look.

You're good to go! Textbook, sir! Looking forward to the harvest pictures and weight =)

TreeTent310commented7 years ago
@Jaindoh, thanks bro! This grow really has gone pretty much by the book. None of the girls have given me too much trouble at all. Honestly the flower phase have been a breeze just watching them fatten up and water/feed every few days and that’s all there is to it! Harvest pics should be posted next week and dry weights a week or so later I’m guessing. Stay tuned!!

Jaindohcommentedweek 77 years ago
Excellent bulk forming! Make sure the temperature and humidity stay within range, that's the best way to the yield and density you want! Liked and followed; let us know if you have any questions =)
TreeTent310
TreeTent310commented7 years ago
@Jaindoh, thanks man the environment in the tent has been pretty consistent only varies about 10 degrees between night and day temps and keeping humidity in the low 50s sometimes even down to 40% really depends how recently I watered them. Hopefully I’m on the right track! I’ll have another even bulkier update next week!! Thanks again!

I have this too sometimes. I’ve been told that it could be a phosphorus deficiency, but upping the P nutes didn’t seem to change anything. Some also said its normal with certain phenoms. I stopped worrying about it since all else seems fine.
Quexos
Quexoscommentedweek 47 years ago
That is a killer looking light! Your plants look really nice! I guess that means the bagseed is going to be flowering as well. That is going to be one crowded tent! It's probably nothing, but your stems are getting awful red. My girl is in the same stage of flowering, and I have a bit of red in my stems. I've been keeping an eye on her to see if any sort of deficiency shows up. So far I haven't seen any issues. Your plants look really, really healthy so there shouldn't be an issue. Just something to do while you are waiting for her to finish.
