08 indoor to outdoor grow

Is cool Nick, I do know they look good, was giving you ****. Now if you can help me out keeping those leaves from yellowing and falling off..... and remember, hermi seeds tend to hermi.

One SugarGrandaddyPurps got the ax today. Sorry to say no pics, those buds were hussled downstairs and are drying on a screen. On another sad note, she was not near as cloudy as i would have liked her. She took longer even than the mango to clip. I am really looking forward to harvest. The oldest plants we will let go to mostly amber. I am thinking the middle of next month to start taking them.

allrollsin, I do know why my plants went into flower as soon as I put them out. The change in the light schedual. I picked the flowers off them except the Amethyst x Northernlights that I let go and harvested earlier in this thread. I dont think the strain, granddaddypurps, had anything to do with mine revedging. I had three, two went into flower pretty far before they revedged, one, I picked as many of the flowers off of and it went back vedging real fast. I have very high hopes for her, even tho she is very small.

inbud nice results on the indoor to outdoor i will be trying out this style of growing, mainly cause i have no $$ too purchase a HPS,and the only grows I've been around are outdoors and when compared too the indoors I see here wow! the indoors suck nothing grows bud like sunshine! maybe when that luxim bulb finally hits market or when I can buy 8 hps 1000wtrs
did you say you need a manicure I'm in chico if your close enough I'll come help :jointsmile:
ps:? did you transplant into ground or containers? when goin outside

Lol..needing help, by the time the plants are ready, my main helper will be off work for the season, but thanks all the same. Am REALY interested in the words LUXIM BULB, what is it? does it cost less to run than the standard expensive bulbs, will it go into a HPS socket? Guess i should google it. Thanks for looking in and commenting.

Oh...and we are growing in containers, 15 gallons (that trees come in) and a few very large hydro containers and a couple large pots from home depot. Next year tho...i just got a thousand dollars I am gonna put in a retainning wall and grow in the the GROUND!!! Hopefully. If no emergencies come up between now and then, i got that cash stashed for the reataining wall. :hippy:

This morning, out in the garden, looking at the color of the trichs on the three oldest plants. I am seeing some amber, and most all trichs are cloudy. These three plants went into flower on July 26, September 20 is eight weeks. On one of the plants he brought in a few samples for me to look at (earlier) and.......they were so filled with amber I started freaking. So we went outside to look some more. Taking a larger sample, we found that closer to the buds themselves the trichs to be all cloudy. This plant is a cross between Amethyst and NorthernLights (looking more northernlights like), if i remember correctly northernlights has a eight week flowering time. Then we checked the dark purple amethystnorthernlights (all cloudy). He was pulling down a bud for me to take a pic of and the branch snapped. So the pics below. Pulled out the dehydrator, to dry this bud. I want to try smoking some (like i could really tell as bombed on codine as i am right now). Gonna be watching these girls daily, and possibly be harvesting next weekend.

(side note, I am on some codine cause of a tooth ache, so the above may not make as much sense as i think)
dehydrating done, good high, kinda harsh.

Tell him to be more careful next time! :)
Good pic of the purple bud, would be nice to see the trichomes if possible.

Maybe I'll be able to out do y'all next year. :stoned:

INbud how do you know those three plants went into flower on July 26th? Is it because thats the day you put them outside.

I am in the foothills and am not sure when the technical flower period started. I know indoors they are flowering for at least a week before any flowers are visible. So how would I know outdoors?

I am checking the Trichs daily and see cloudy mostly, with a small percentage amber at the most. I have some conflicting happenings in life and am trying to even have a 1-10 estimation of when i'll be chopping. Any ideas?

i know they went into bud on the 26th cause that is when i first spotted flowers on them. Depends on what variety your plants are allrolls. I am pretty sure northernlights are an early eight week in flower plant. But, keep watching those trichs, they will tell you when. I dont understand what you mean by 1-10 estimation on chopping. If you want a good mind high, more cloudy is best. If you want a more narcotic high then more amber than cloudy. Just dont let your girls get to far into amber, you start loosing THC in the trichs when they get old. Good luck to you, with your grow and conflicts.

And my emergency came up, just like clockwork, may not get my retaining wall and a root canal instead. Waiting on the dentist apointment now.:(

root canal...boo hoo! Thats a bummer. I bet some of the herb will help you mend from that.

By 1-10 i meant days, as in nailing down approximatelly when harvest i would be better timed with my flush. I am notsure its really an issue on some of my plants as all the leaves are turning purple as the plant is sucking all the nutrients from them. Cool looking, but a little too early IMO.

Thanks for your advice and well wishes. Post up some nugs when your done, PLEASE

I think my oldest plants will go another week, maybe ten days (started flushing them when i water, every three days now that it has cooled off). The younger clones, (they got their final feeding on Sunday) i am gonna try to keep out there till mid October, frost permitting. The leaves are turning purple now too from the cold.

44f last night.

Here you go SG....
mine look awful...
the cold and losing leaves to yellow has made my garden look real lousy. The cold is making what was left of the green into purple.

I am gonna be taking one of the oldest plants this sunday. It is the big amethyst x northernlights, the one pictured above with the broken bud. It is showing about one third amber over most of the buds. Some more, and some less, but mostly one third amber.
the other AmNL is comming down i think on Tuesday and the largest Purps on Wed.
I got my root canal yesterday and in a day or so will be just a trimmin away. Is kinda funny, when i was on pain killers, the smell of the pot drying downstairs or i was burping my jars, it was turning my stomache. I hope that reaction is done with..or i am gonna be a alka seltzer drinking girl when i trim them.:D I just hate absessed teeth..but the pain killers are almost worse. Glad that is over.
