I cannot believe how much growth this week!!! I think she has doubled in size!! For the first time I've had to higher the light fixture. It is now almost as high as I can put it. I'm kinda regretting not FIMing her now...... I hope she does not grow much more in height!

She is getting close to harvest, maybe in the coming week I will take a few colas off if I see any amber trichomes.

Day 98 - still flushing, still waiting for amber trichomes. I've harvested a couple of bits last week & they are drying now. Thats why she looks a bit lop-sided.

Day 105- her last day on earth. I thank her for what she is about to give us. I saw scattered amber trichomes so decided it was time. I am very excited about this harvest. I think she is going to be top quality. Her flowers are dense, heavy and large 😍 What a pleasure she has been this far. Give her plenty of light, a big pot, don't overdo it on the nutrients and this is what she gives me. I didn't even train her at all! The wires are to support her branches before they snapped off due to weight.

She was very easy to grow. Minimal input from me, no training whatsoever. I have to say this seems a 'classy' strain to me. High quality. Impressive. Quite dense, solid buds. Quite frosty.

God yes her buds r gigantic, amazing work. Her weight and smoke is gonna be awesome💯

Wilstangcommented7 years ago
@Dunk_Junk, I trim them then freeze and do the 4micron bag bubble, giving me 3 layers of hash
Dunk_Junk
Dunk_Junkcommented7 years ago
@Wilstang, Cool! Do you chop up the trim first? Or just freeze wet? I'm just bumbling along at this point.
Wilstang
Wilstangcommented7 years ago
@Dunk_Junk, yup I know that way, I make bubble hash with mine, wet trim from plant to freezer to bubble machine nd microne bags

@GreenHouseLab, Thank you. Looking back they were good quality dense buds. Nice genetics, I will definitely grow the same strain again. 💪

Love the timelapse videos, what camera do you use for these?
Dunk_Junk
Dunk_Junkcommented7 years ago
@Kochanski, Thanks dude! I use a Wingscapes TimelapseCam. Took me a few weeks to dial in the settings. The only complaint I have is it has quite a narrow field of view. I don't have any space behind it to move away, my plants got REALLY big this grow 😂 It's a manual focus but it does work well.

Excellent! Final yield is really nice! Glad to see you had an easy time of it.
Dunk_Junk
Dunk_Junkcommented7 years ago
@Jaindoh, thank you! She was dead easy to grow. I did nothing apart from feed/water every day and leave the lights on 24h 😁 I would like to have cracked 5oz dry with her. When I grow this strain again I will FIM her for sure and see how that helps things.

Look at those colas!!! Don't tend to use bottled notes myself, but always been curious about that Terpinator... Any good?
Dunk_Junk
Dunk_Junkcommented7 years ago
@stickyfingers23, I'm going to be honest with you. My growing has improved but I think many other factors come into play. I.E. I've changed/upgraded my lights along the way. Airpots helped a lot too. But if you read up on terpinator it *should* work. It basically makes the plant make more trichome sites. All things point to having it is probably better than not having it. I would love to do a 'lab test' one day to prove one way or another 😉
Jaindoh
Jaindohcommentedweek 127 years ago
gorgeous, much better than the ones i sogged in 2 gallon fabric pots XD the product was amazing, nice medical relief given that its mostly THC -- CBD at 4-5%+ you should be very happy afterwards =)
Dunk_Junk
Dunk_Junkcommented7 years ago
@Jaindoh, Thank you! Do you think she is quite happy in her 40L airpot? 😀 From what I've tried today I'm quite happy indeed! 😍

bushing out nice looking like she's gonna hold some weight
Dunk_Junk
Dunk_Junkcommented7 years ago
@biggreens420, Thank you! Yes there are plenty of flower sites! I just need to keep on top of trimming leaves that block light to the lower buds. I'm not too confident defoliating though, I never know how much is too much.

@bobo420, Thank you! In this week I only used the 4x Cree cobs. I have to say they stretched a bit more than I normally have (with 1000w HID + 4x full spectrum LEDs). In the next week I have switched on the full spectrum LED so let's see if that helps slow down the stretch a bit. 👍
