Hi all,
Noticing that most of the girls only need to be fed once a week. Moisture meter read from 5.5 - 7, and I havent watered them since last Saturday. Conditions 58%, 73F. Had to turn the dehumid on 24/7 because it hasnt seemed to be doing much. Had it on 18 hours a day, but still wasnt helping. Thermometer said min of 54% over the last few days, which still isnt as low as I'd like. Hmm...
Heights pretty much same as last week. Bud production has increased a whoooooole bunch. Def can see that flowering 5 plants in this space is too much, not getting the penetration to the lower budsites... Hmm part two.
Decided to reveg my two biggest plants after harvest, rather than try and clone. That will give me a month or so between revegging and cutting clones to do a post mortem, try and sketch out the next grow, and tweak whats needed. Also to make some hash, butter, cannapills, etc... all the things I've been putting off (have made cannapills and green dragon in the past, but have never really really gotten the hang of it, but now have the supply to go wild lol) :thumbsup:
Starting to get some pistils turning on the top of the biggest girl, but other than that, still clear mostly. Probably got about 2 weeks left til harvest.
Question, when should my final flush be done / ferting cease?
Cheers :jointsmile:

Hi all!
Not much in the way of updates. Girls are chugging along, fattening up for the harvest. :jointsmile: Did my flush last night, put about 6 gallons of water through each girl (in 3 gal bags). Got a pretty sweet adapter for my bathroom sink that replaces the aerator and offers a garden hose male thread to screw into. Should make filling my watering can easier from now on, as well as making flush absurdly easy. :thumbsup:
The two shortest may not really be ready to go in a week to week and a half, but theyre gonna get harvested anyway since I'm planning on re-vegging my two biggest ones. I dont really see the two smallest as offering anything significant in terms of harvest anyway, so whatever. More shake for bubble hash (must order bubble bags this week, reminder! lol and some mason jars... hmm)
Forgot to take pics while they were in my room, got a nice one while they were in the shower draining though :D
cheers

Lookin damn good spiggs!! Those ladies look just like our jack herers. You can tell they are related for sure;)
Approaching that first harvest huh?! I know its hard, but letting those other 2 go a week or so after harvesting the faster one, will make you very happy you did.

yeah... only prob is i only have one grow space at present... so its more a question of, is it more important to use the space to reveg two future moms or to get an extra half o out of the two short ones... if my t5 fixture comes in this week then i may be able to retrofit another space to reveg, in which case i will let the two small ones go for another week... hmmm
yeah the look and smell of these things is amazing. so citrus-y and beautiful... omfg i cant wait lol :jointsmile:

omfg. i just got the sickest idea. the t5 2ft x 2 bulb fixture came in this week. its bright as all hell. two 26 w bulbs, 52 watts total. instead of the cfls next grow (~100 w of cfls, 50 on each side), i think im gonna suck it up and buy two more t5 2ft x 2 fixtures. (i bought the current one for moms and clones).
and then, rather than have the cfls where they are (prolly not all that useful), hang the t5s vertically on each side of the tent. omfg would that be a way more useful application of those 100 watts or what. that would be absurd.
the things we think of when high :jointsmile:
Harvesting the big girls tomorrow, maybe. Gotta pull out my 30x and see if I cant get the thing to stay focused for more than half a second.
Question -- guidelines on revegging? I know 24/0 w my 6500k T5s, but what about superthrive / b1 / other ferts? how much per gallon, etc?
Ordered my bubblebags this week. Getting excited... :thumbsup:

Final watering!!! tried to just give the plants enough for the next few days. Anticipating a Monday or Tuesday harvest. Maybe Tuesday based on the way my schedule is looking. Seeing mostly cloudy trichs with a little amber; so a few more days should hopefully do it.
Got some different rubbermaid trays for the plants, can now fit 5 trays at a time which is nice because now each plant is in its own tray. Brought in a new intake directly from my room so that there will be something other than heavy moist basement cellar air being drawn in. Have to get a louvre for the vent, theres a faint purple glow emanating from it which looks hilarious in my room at night :wtf: :stoned:
Accidentally cut the power cord for my dehumidifier while I was working on the new intake... whoops. Somehow I don't have electrical tape (in the midst of moving out into my own place again, so all my stuff is in limbo right now lol) so I'll need to pick that up at the home de pot tomorrow too... hopefully the humid whill stay down, I cut the new intake hole to bring in some less moist air bc I've been chillin in the 57-61% range which is way too high for my tastes...
Read a thread in Basic Growing from a few weeks back where sitnky said 2-4 drops of superthrive per gallon for the first feeding of the revegging moms, then just water after that til they turn around. Not sure how much oomph is left in this soil (have to take the trip to the hydro store soon), so hopefully the moms dont freak out too much...
Did some trimming, gettin rid of dead leaves/branches etc. Never done that til now, prolly shouldve started earlier. Getting leaves shriveling in the middle of the plants here and there randomly... weird stuff.
Plants are all very top-heavy. Cant wait to reveg these moms and start playing with cloning. Also need to figure out where the hell my NL x BB seeds got to... lol!
So soon... :jointsmile: :thumbsup:
ps -- def. going with my t5 sidelighting plan next grow. Why not, any good pot scientist would do it in the name of experimentation :smokin:
