Oh I forgot to Post on last one, that in these pics, Pic #5 is a NYCD plant, the same age as all the others but for some reason had trouble growing in the beginning but finally took off. I dont have a Hypothesis yet on this plant

Sadly They all have been stricken with heat stress, due to my T5 chains slipping and getting to close. But they are still growing Well! Im waiting another week before Force Flowering and then its 10 weeks for the NYCD and 8 for the Hypnoberry

Just water them good for a couple days and they should pop right back up. I keep my T5's about 6 inches away.

anbesol
06-15-2008, 10:54 PM
Yeah I was doing that. They are all a bit damp so im letting them dry out a bit more.

My guess would be to reflect some light.

Looks good so far

Thank you greendestiny for answering the question, it reflects light up towards the underside of the leaves, hoping to help with the lower nodes.

Looking good bro! Great strains, I'm subscribed!

Just today I forgot to leave my A/C running when I went to work, and we had a HOT day. Like 95+. House temp was 90 when I got home, and my grow cab was at 93. It was like this for about 8 hours, and I'm only a week from harvest. I hope to god that everything will be ok. What do you think?

anbesol

hey bomb. if my typing sucks its because i just took cuttings from all 4 nycd's and cleaned the razor blade off and sliced my finger open. ouch.

I think ur stuff will b fine. one day wont be bad. ive had high temps b4 and they went longer then 8 hours ha. what state r u in? im in NY and its been like 75

anbesol, those are some beautiful, big, wide leaves you have there! I know those babies will yield some beautiful bud! I can't wait to watch the NYCD grow and see the harvest and smoke report. I've heard and read nothing but incredible things about that strain. It is a bit pricey for me at this stage in my growing experience, but look forward to possibly trying it in the future. I have not heard as much about Hypnoberry - I will have to research it a bit.

I hope you don't mind me adding some simple, well-deserved kudos to your thread.

Be good out there!

06-26-2008, 07:41 PM
Thanks Jakezking, by all means tag along. im not doing pictures all the time, just changes. the plants are starting to sex, so as soon as i can really tell, then there will be more pics. im pretty sure my last hynoberry plant is a male (waste of money for 10 seeds)

06-28-2008, 12:51 AM
FUCKING GREAT NEWS!!!

OUT OF THE 5 NYCD PLANTS I AM GROWING.

I HAVE 3 CONFIRMED FEMALES!!! THEY HAVE BEAUTIFUL LITTLE PISTALS!!! one of them is too small to tell right now, and one that i figured would be female seems to me may be a male. its the smallest plant out of all of them and it seems it may have balls. will wait a bit longer. maybe 5 more days before I kill him.

OH GLORIOUS DAY! JUST 9 more WEEKS haha (maybe)

Ok i have to admit that when it comes to rock wool, i fuck everything up. i dont know what it is, but i cant make anything grow in rock wool. So i just ripped out all 10 clones and decided to start over, since i know which ones are females. Im just going to stick to what i know and use good ol' soil. Im really excited to do this, so once the grow is over i can choose a mother i like and stick with her.


Bombdiggity, hit me up with some of that BB and Bubble and ill smoke u up some NYCD when shes all finished :-) haha.

06-29-2008, 04:36 AM
looking awesome anbesol. cool to hear they're flowering, as much as the NYCD is sure to promise I'm interested in seeing how the Hypnoberry does, it sounds like a pretty decent cross. :smokin:

I never have any luck with rockwool either. I always end up overwatering it. the same goes with those peat pellet things, which I can say have to be worse than rockwool (you have to submerge them in water so they expand, and by that time, you've already overwatered).

I know alot of people that root clones in soil and wouldn't do it any other way. the only advice I can give is not to mist the clones much while rooting like alot of people suggest - as long as the humidity level is fine and the medium stays damp it's unnecessary. what you can end up doing is babying the cuts too much, so they'll be reluctant to root. that's what I've heard at least, and I think that's partially where I've went wrong in my past cloning attempts.

good idea with the tin foil over the pots to reflect some light to the undersides of the leaves. I'll have to remember that. :thumbsup:

anbesol
06-29-2008, 06:28 PM
the hypno hasnt shown sex yet, but i will let you know. i just chopped the only male NYCD and repotted one of the smaller NYCD into its old pot (i changed the soil, dont worry).

Heres the pic of the chopped Male. you cant see the balls very well, but they were there. its just the top area, i cut the rest up. What i do, as to not bring attention with throwing trash out, i take my plants(that i dont use for hash) and chop then up and store them in gallon zip lock bags in a dark area for a few weeks, they start to rot and no longer look like cannabis.

bombdiggity
06-29-2008, 06:35 PM
hey thats a good idea for throwing them out - i wish I had thought of that. I just kinda chop it up as much as I can and then wrap it up in a grocery bag or something. Good thinking :thumbsup:

anbesol
06-29-2008, 09:25 PM
Thanks Bomb!

Ok, So this is amazing, Better Results that i though. Out of the 5 NYCD, One was Male. and Today The Hypnoberry Showed Sex and ....drum Roll Please.....Female!!!


I have 5 Female Plants now, I have taken Clones of 3 of the NYCD since these were the older ones, will take more when the other 2 get bigger. Heres a pic of the garden....Hypno is on far left in white pot.

Hey Guys, I need some help. Cloning is really pissing me off. My clones are 3 days old and they look really droopy but still green. I have them under 2 65 watt CFL's in a mini grow box. They have a humidity dome over them and the humidity is about 90% temp about 78-82 f i really cant get it any cooler in there. i do have a 4" exhaust coming out of it. Im using Fox farm Potting soil, and 1/4 tsp of each GH nutes. Lights on 24. is this normal or what? HELP PLEASE. I HATE DEALING WITH SEEDS. and i just want to get into cloning.

bombdiggity
07-03-2008, 02:06 AM
I'm not a cloning guy but I'm not so sure about using all those GH nutes right now - I think you need rooting hormones

edit: its also only been 3 days you gotta have some patience :thumbsup:

jakezking
07-03-2008, 02:39 PM
anbesol, your grow is looking outstanding! It looks like your ladies are about to grow FAT! They have a good, solid vegetative base for putting on some huge buds!

As for your clones, I am also not experienced in this area, but maybe some rooting hormone would help? I read a thread of stinky's at some point, and she had a pretty thorough guide to cloning - it may have been mixed in with one of her logs? I have seen where some people trim their clones down at start - cut fan leaves a bit shorter, since the root system is not yet in place to support all of the leaves?

I wish you good luck in your cloning endeavors, and congratulations on your supreme lookin' plants! Be good out there!

anbesol
07-03-2008, 04:48 PM
Thanks Jaze and Bombdiggity. I used Clonex on my clones. I opened my grow tent today and all my plants looked sorta gloomy. i figured because the soil was dry, so i watered them and lifted the lamps up a bit. hopefully they will perk up. it might also have been that my room was up to 90 degrees. im not sure. ive trimmed some of the dead leaves at the bottom aswell. Im pretty sure this wont shock them since ive done it before and have seen no change. except for the growth in other parts. its almost over with week 2. im getting anxious and i want to see these babys in full bloom. erg.

Ok, So I decided to ditch the 65 watt CFL's for my clones and decided to buy a one bulb t5 light for 25 bucks for the clones. They are doing a hell of alot better, and using t5's makes me smile as well. im hoping though in the next year that i can switch over to a 400 watt digital ballast. i just dont have the room right now.

anbesol
07-05-2008, 08:23 PM
Heres Some New Pics. I opened my grow tent and one of my T5 Lamps were off covering the front 2 plants. Hopefully the light reflection from the other ballast got to them too a bit.

Im seeing alot of bud formation on all of the plants

Mr.GoodMorning02
07-05-2008, 11:37 PM
hey anbesol, that was very fortunate to get all girls with that strain, did you get them from soma? I'm also pretty sure those clones shouldn't be in nutes yet and the soil looked very moist but if they're looking better under the T5 then i guess they should be fine. Plants all look nice and i haven't seen the nycd in full bloom yet so i'll be sure to be checking in time to time...good luck bro

Hey, I Might Have Missed It But What happen With The Clone's?????,,,,When You Showed Them At Three Day's, That Is Normal, Just Keep Misting Them & They Should Show Root's In 6 To 7 Day's, Then The Rest Will Be History....In My Bubbler's, My Clone's Get Nut's From Day 1, I Have Seen On A Regular Bases Root's In 3 Day's!!!!......I Average Taking Around 600 Clone's A Year, With at Least 98 to 99% Rate, It Very Seldom I Loss A Clone, But It Does Happen!!.......Good Luck on Your Cloning Success, & Your Grow's!!!

anbesol, those pistils are smokin'! I'm happy to see your fine strains doing fine! It looks like they're doing great under those t-5's. I've really been lookin' into an indoor setup, so I can continue to grow during the winter months. Do you mind if I ask what kind of tent you're using, and how well you are satisfied with it? Your tent looks like the kind sold at High Tech Garden Supply. They seem to have some pretty sweet setups for lazy asses like myself.

Thanks for those awesome pictures - the hypno looks great, but there is something about that NYCD that just steals the show as far as I am concerned. She is amazing! Keep up the outstanding work, my friend!

The NYCD does steal the show lol!

actually i didnt get the grow tent from HTG, The tent brand is Homebox and its the HomeBox XS. its great for keeping small plants, but with my carbon filter i have about 3 feet of solid space to grow. id like to get a 6 foot box so i cant get an HPS light. buy-the-homebox.com - universal indoor grow box kit (http://www.buy-the-homebox.com/shop/product_family_homebox_xs.html)

anbesol
07-10-2008, 01:00 AM
Friday will be the start of the 4th week of flowering. So who wants to match on this when its done? :D ha

really dumb question. The NYCD claims to be 1o weeks of flowering. Now do i continue with the nutes all 10 weeks or when it hits the 8th week should i start flushing for the remaining 2 weeks? can anyone give me some good detail on that? and what week do you think I should start the aggresive blooming (gen Hydro products)? aswell with what week should i also start to do the ripening phase? im very confused, i dont want to screw this up.

I did the first week in transition phase
Then for the second and this week(3rd) i have done a regular bloom phase. so when should i do the aggressive bloom and then ripen and then flush? HELP!

SnSstealth
07-10-2008, 01:54 AM
id be going into aggressive this weekend...IMHO, i always flush last two weeks, 3 weeks for bigger than 3 gal....ripen for 2-3 weeks before that...split the chart by your flowering time....4 stages after transition 10 weeks....2.5 weeks per phase...least thats how Id look at it...

07-10-2008, 05:27 AM
Yes Thanks SnSstealth, that makes alot of sense. as soon as friday hits (my next watering) i will switch it over to aggresive for 2 more weeks. then ripen for 2 more. then flush for 2. Thanks so much

Looks like he was about 1/4 right on the additional lights. I'm going to have to learn about lighting at some point, but right now the sunshine works mighty fine. I may come knocking at your door for some help with a tent and some lights when it starts cooling down here.

That was a wicked lookin' forest shot showin' some really good branching. Those arms and legs will be able to hold up quite a few sweet buds. Keep up the good work, my friend!

Hypnoberry then the rest are NYCD.

So on the last pic, i had actually cut the bottom 2 rows of nodes off so to give the top buds more juice. they havent even flowered yet so i didnt figure it would hurt it.

I have to say that the NYCD is a strong hearty plant. I recomend it so far lol!

Those are some dark green beauties, anbesol! I know I was saying the NYCD was stealing the show, but your Hypno is looking fantastic too! You've a good eye for the budshots too! Looks like you have your grow well under control, and these ladies will have a nice, stable climate within which to thrive! I'm anxiously following their progress, as I know you are!

Thanks again for being willing to help a wannabe indoor grower out, my friend! We'll see where the future leads me - I'm pretty certain I will be moving indoor in the Fall, so look out for the questions to start flowing your way!

Be good out there, and enjoy your weekend!

wow have the buds got bigger. i'll be taking a picture soon, maybe a day or so. they hypno has taken on alot of weight. Im starting the second phase of aggressive bloom on tuesday. (increasing the liquid cool bloom, to one teaspoon instead of 1/2 of one.) everything else is the same on the grow chart. Has anyone used this grow chart before or going to start using it?

Ok here are some new pics. Again will start second Aggresive bloom in another day. The NYCD bud's are getting bigger and bigger, even the lower branches. They smell very skunky. However the Hypno smells a bit like my nutrients. I want to smoke some buds so bad. but im being good. im waiting till they have been cured.
I finally got a bucket and a mini pump so i can keep my nutirents mixed up all the time and use it also to feed the plants

So i Picked up the Book "Organic Marijuana Soma Style" who as everyone knows is the creator and distributor of NYCD. He says in there that he starts to Flush at the beginning of the 8th week. Does that sound normal? should i only do the ripening phase for 1 week? or should i cut down my aggressive bloom time (2weeks) to give longer to Ripen? Please Help

Hey anbesol, goes quiet sometimes for a few days, don't worry i'm sure people are still looking in ;)

I'm not much help with your questions i'm afraid, your girls are looking good tho :thumbsup::thumbsup: but aren't you a little early for ripening and flushing? I could be wrong, i'm not familiar with your nutes or schedule it just seems they're still some time from harvest.

Hey Hudson. Not the NYCD. they are 10 weeks. im on week 5 ending on friday. to week 6. i decided to start ripening the hypnoberry because that plant finishes in 8 weeks. so im starting ripening now for the hypno then flush at start of week 7. using final flush with that.

NYCD got some more time.

so next grow. im getting at 400 watt digital ballast and a new grow tent. :) my girlfriend decided that she likes the thought of free weed haha

400 watt can produce quite a bit. I'd say that a 400 watt can illuminate a square meter, so looking at seed reports for yeild (which is measured M²) you can get an idea for the yeild of the strain using that 400 watt hps. Just a stoned idea while reading your thread.

In regrads to your KWH question. going from a 250w to a 400 w is only a difference of 150 w. If you figure you will run them on avaerage of 12 hrs a day that equals about 54 kw a month. Look at your bill and see what you pay there but here in Boston that would run another 6.00 a month or so. Your rates may be different though

So in smelling my plants they NYCD has a weird hashy smell. I also want to say that there is a slight beef jerky smell to it, and being a vegetarian i find that gross. so im hoping that goes away. The Hypnoberry has a very fruity smell almost like candy necklaces. They hypno has put on a ton of weight. i cant wait to see how much i get out of her. im really bummed i didnt get a clone because she sure is great looking.

hudson88
07-24-2008, 02:07 AM
Hey Anbesol,

don't be bummed about not getting a clone from the hypno, why don't you try revegging it after harvest?

Take a look at this thread by Rusty Trichome ;)

Ok. Its the Start of Week 6. For the NYCD I will start doing the ripening formula. For the Hypnoberry I will still give a bit more ripening feed to her as well but just for a few more days. I plan on flushing with Advance Nutrients Final Flush in the middle of week 6.

Soma flushes his NYCD at week 7-10, now anything i have read said flush at 2 weeks. Does anyone have anything to say about that?

jakezking
07-25-2008, 02:59 PM
anbesol, where are all of the pics, bro? Sorry it's been awhile since I was in your log, but I've been trying to catch up with everyone yesterday and today - work is allowing me a bit more free time lately. The last set of pictures showed some ladies starting to thicken up a bit - gotta love the love handles on those MJ ladies!

Sorry I don't know much about the timing of the strains and when to begin flushing. With my grow, I sort of played it by ear/eye, and really watched the trichomes and pistils/hairs. With your ability to regulate light and watering much better than my outside grow, I can see where you will be able to time a flush much better. But, I would also keep an eye on your trichs to see how they are doing. I wonder if there is an article/thread anywhere which will provide a general time frame of trichs going from clear to cloudy to amber? If there is such a general time frame, I'd use it more than the general rule of thumb regarding the strain, so you can harvest closer to when you want, depending on your desire for a cerebral high or more body high.

Always take my advice with a grain of salt though! I'm looking forward to new pictures though, as well as a report on your new tent and lighting setup. I wonder if 600w in a grow tent is too much, or would prove to be difficult to vent? 400w sounds pretty good, but at the end of the day, if you can vent a 600w, the more the merrier!

Be good out there, my friend! Have a great weekend!

I finally picked up Advance Nutrients Final Flush. Im starting this tomorrow for the hypno. The NYCD are still on their Ripen Phase. Im hoping the Diesel get a bit bigger. They seem like they have been the same size for a week now. same with the hypno. it just seems like the buds stopped growing and all i have going is resin building up on the leaves. That would be great if i still made hash (im sick of ruining blenders and i dont want to drop the money on bubble bags).

I have finally finished my bud drying chamber/hypno's last 48 hours to be in complete darkness before harvest area. haha. I used a large rubbermade box and used an old carbon filter that i bought off ebay (you can see it in my old posts) that is bulky and not so efficient. I cut a 4 inch hole out of the box and attached the carbon filter so the vent was going outside of the box. so the large CF inside the box. I also build a wood square and attached screens on it. however i will attach some strings to the sides so the first 2 days of drying will be hung. I will post pics as soon as i put the hypno in it (im using it to store old grow supplies)....:sorry1: Im stoned lol

Ok, So it is 3 days till Week 8. I have looked at my hypnoberry's trichomes and it appears to be 50% clear heads and 50% Milky White. This is peak THC content and ready to harvest. however im not harvesting until saturday! I have given the hypno 1 cup of flush (last watering) and have washed the buds. (jorge cervantes recommends this to get rid of any dirt from the air that has accumulated) I will allow the water to evaporate under the lights until thursday night when i will put her in my "drying box" removing the racks just for 24 hours of darkness to build the remaining resin glands. So stay tuned for the harvest of the Hypnoberry...:chainsaw:

Anbosol,

Dude you have a lot of ripening to go!! by the looks to me you have another 2 or more weeks!!!

My first grow I harvested at 8 weeks thinking they were done, then my second grow I found that they flower in cycles about a week and a half apart. First cycle ends when the first pistols die off giving you more than 50% red then all of a sudden second round of new pistols form and does this over and over until the plant runs out of energy and the first amber trics appear this is the optimal time to harvest.

Your plants are just entering the fattening stage and harvesting soon will significantly decrease your final possible weight.

This is just some friendly advise from experience and you have some of the nicest plants going on this site!!So I would hate not to see the full potential from your babies.

BOL and GREAT WORK!!!

So you know what sucks. I was buying a homebox L and a 400 watt digital HPS. and i decided not to on the fact that i dont have that much room to spare. I then decided on buying the homebox S and getting the 400. then it dropped to the 250 watt because im going to be growing in an apartment and didnt want high elec. bills. And to the end i said fuck it all. im going to pay some debt off and buy a new illedelph bong instead. I really like the low heat and electricity use of the t-5s and i seem to get weight with them. So until i move into a new house that i have purchased i will probably stick with the T-5's but i still want a homebox L :wtf: but im not going to buy one soon. I found them on ebay for $149 free shipping.
Have I and other grows like Bombdiggity's encouraged any one else to go out and buy t-5's???

Just wondering if you've had any light leak issues with your Homebox. At night I can see a lot of pinholes of light looking from the outside of mine. Most are from the stitching along the corner seams.

Thanks,

Ok! I need help again. not about my plants but an after product... I want to make hash again and im not going the blender method ever again. So i want to buy bubble bags. But i need help. Should i go cheap and buy the 1 gallon 8 set bag? Bubble Bags (http://www.bubblebag.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=34)
or the 5 gallon 4 bag kit? Bubble Bags (http://www.bubblebag.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=32)

I want an 8 bag set but i cant afford to spend 275 dollars on a 5 gallon 8 bag set. the 1 gallon is only 140 bucks. I have 5 plants. that are all about 3 feet tall. would i be fine with the 1 gallon with 8 bags for primo hash that may take a few hours for hash? or should i take quickness over quality with the 4 bag 5 gallon kit?

I know the answer is quality but i dont want to spend 6 hours making hash from 6 plants. please help!

I will drop down to just 1 1/2 cups from this point on for NYCD and the last watering will once again recieve 3 cups to last 10 days during the dying process

Looking very nice and as Hydro said YUMMY.

I still see a lot of white pistols. If new ones are still coming out SHE IS NOT READY to harvest. Also are you going about this blind ( meaning no way to see the tric's ) I go by the tric's when I see the first amber one, Then off with her head. Also I just keep watering them until harvest. What you want to do is about a week or 2 out from harvest stop the nutes. What you want is to stop the formation of chlorophyll, or the green in your plant. This is what gives the bud, what us old-timers used to call the homegrown or leafy taste. In other words you want the plant to remain watered but turn yellowish or light green not that deep forest green by not giving her any nitrogen.

Just some of the things I have learned from this site and put into practice in my grows with great success.

JG. No im not going in on this blind. I have a 60x Microscope and all my trichs are Mily white. You answered my question from a few days ago about the watering. if you see no problem with going up till the day you harvest then im trusting you. I dont have any white hairs that are coming in anymore. I have alot of brown. but the pic doesnt show it very well. Im using my cell phone for all these pics. Im still giving it 10 days or so. that will be at the 10th week. Tommorow will be 9 weeks. I heard you let off on the water though like 10 days prior to help with the drying time and increase resin due to the plant thinking its dying. JG all the help is great. please dont stop. I'd love my plants to taste the best yet. And ive been on water and final flush at ph 6.5 now. hypno for 2 weeks now and NYCD for 1

08-15-2008, 12:17 AM
Ok. I just got to my grow room and the hypno berry has Amber Trichs. I would say about 1/10 per area has amber. So Im pretty sure I will chop her this weekend. I also just noticed, some super tiny ant like creatures in my soil. I couldnt get them on my microscope. I know that during organic growing that little bugs can be helpful..Hopefully these wont hurt the remaining flush...I know that before i throw my clones in here, im using a bleach water mixture to clean it. as well thinking of putting sand on top of my soil to help keep bugs out.

Jerry Garcia 2007
08-15-2008, 12:26 AM
Anbesol,

The biggest thing I do for resin production is 3 days of complete darkness before chopping down.

This practice sends the plant into panic mode ( so to say) and just causes all the resin to come out to protect the hopefully not-existent seeds from the winter. (Note this some of what I have read about what happens and put into practice). I do notice that they are much more sticky when they come out of the closet. Another plus to this practice is no light means no photosynthesis= lesson chlorophyil = better taste. What I mean is I do notice the plant is a much lighter green when done.

Just another tip you may want to ponder.

JG

Harvesting the HYPNOBERRY!!!

Fist 2 pics are hypno without fan leaves.
Last is the bounty. I dont know the wet weight. Im guessing the dry weight will be around a 1/2 ounce. But i could be wrong. I think it will be low though. She smells amazing. Covered in crystals. I checked the Trichs today and they have more amber then before.Good thing i harvested her. dont want any couch lock! Head high please! The main cola ended up being wider then a soda can and twice as long!!! I took a picture but somehow the picture got deleted off my phone. and now the buds are in my drying box.


I just ordered 1 gallon 8 bag set of bubble bags. so u can make hash from my plants leaves

Hey Jake. My friends will never know. lol. I cant wait. I just weighted out the cola on my scale and with 12 hours of drying it weighs 33grams. so im hoping to pull an ounce out of that bud. The rest of the buds are weighing in around 2-3 grams wet! :( Im hoping the NYCD turns out to weigh more. I started growing so i didnt have to pay for it and im starting to get nervous that i wont have enough to get through the next grow. I need at least an ounce a month.

Im actually Hoping i get "hypno-tised" from it lol! I actually smoked a tiny bit of it when i was done harvesting and heated it up with a heat gun. Didnt work very well and tasted green. so im going to wait atleast 2 weeks to cure it before i give a detailed smoke report...Im really into Vaporizers so i will give that report as well as a bong report! lol.

anbesol, I wish you could invite me over for a smoke! I'd like to kick back with some of the folks on this board, but know I wouldn't say all that much around anyone! I can type a whole lot easier than I can talk - most of the time.

The Cure is not only a good band, but a dang good process. I've tried a vaporizer once, and it was pretty good, but I don't feel satisfied unless I can exhale a huge cloud of smoke, and having quit smoking a few times I think I get a bit of satisfaction off the smoke too. I need to break down and get some sort of bong, but I don't like the storage issues. Most of my smoke comes solely out of a bat. I don't think it will matter a dang bit what you smoke that Hypno and NYCD out of though!

uhg. i was bad. I decided to try a small bit of a tiny piece of bud that i accidently clipped off. It was still damp, but i tried it anyway. It doesnt have a real flavor yet seeing how it was still wet..I felt a bit like i just woke up, almost refreshed. But that could have just been the feeling of smoking good grass after smoking a bowl of schwag (uhg, desperate times cause for desperate measures).

So i was in the garden and fixing the NYCD Buds, to get more direct light and one of the buds from the base snapped and i had to clip it off in order to not let the plant try to recover from the damage. So i trimmed it up and threw it in the dry box. Im bummed that its not going to be fully flushed but, i did use Final Flush, so im sure it wont taste like chemicals but i still have a week to 2 weeks left on these

Hypnoberry weighs in at 20.91 grams. Im unhappy with the results and was really hoping to at least get an ounce. The buds smell great. Very Fruity.

Tomorrow I am spraying my NYCD Buds with water to wash them. Tomorrow will also be the last day of light. I am giving 48 hours of darkness and then i will harvest saturday morning. The Beginning of week 10. Now soma says these go from 9-10 weeks. All of my plants have 1/8 Amber on the actual buds and 3/4 full on the leaves that grow from them. So I need to do this before it goes any farther... The Hypno after smoking it, has a heavy couch lock feel. Very goofy.

Willy Jack's Hypnoberry Has a relaxing couch lock effect. Woke me up and cured my migraine. The smell of just the buds resmeble a light skunky/fruit loops smell. Of trying it through the bong i get a light floral taste that resembles roses and oddly Vicks VapoRub (but in a good way)(like childhood if you used it for colds). I do recomend this for small grows. Got to be around 23 inches after being veg'd to 8 inches. This grow was done in a 1 gallon pot. And I recieved 20.91 grams under 4 T5 Bulbs and 2 Lower "100 watt" CFL's. :S5:

I'm looking forward to your NYCD harvest and smoke report, and know it will be equally informative. Nice that you already have a bit of insight into it, so you know it will be some killer bud.

And, you have me hooked already on the White Berry grow, dude! White Berry sounds like an incredible cross. You certainly have some kick ass strains, my friend! I don't know that you will be able to kick your friends out of your place! At least make them bring the food, eh?

anbesol, great grow buddy! I was so excited to come back to your log after being gone for a while and see jars full of bud!

I too got an unsatisfactory yield (weight wise). The fact of the matter is (unfortunately) the lights that we use just do not put out the muscle that the HPS/MH do. I know for you its the electricity bill that is stopping you, and for me its the damned heat! There is nowhere for the heat to go when you're growing in confined places.

Cool thing is though that even with the space limitations, and the lights used, we T-5'ers are still able to harvest some dank buds - and an OK amount too.

Keep fighting the good fight bro! And enjoy that sweet mj! Thanks for sharing your log.
