Winter Grow - Indica Mix

[Shovelhandle]

Checked the trics and they look about ready. Mostly cloudy. I trimmed every leaf that I could get at the petiole. I had a few bugs on one or two of the Ceril plants on the dried up lower leaves so I washed them with Safer Insecticidal soap and later rinsed off all the dead little buggies and bombed the grow area while the plants were out being trimmed and washed. I watered them all and now I plan to harvest next week when the soil dries out. I'm still running a heater as the temps are friggin frigid outside and the grow area is cooler than they like. It looks like the low soil temps during the peak bud growing weeks (week 4-6) has stunted the bud growth quite a bit but the buds are nice and frosty. Some bottom buds are having a growth spurt and if they continue to do that I may harvest just the tops. One more week. :hippy:

Three Ceril and the little bubblegum clone from the main plant (bubblegum is the largest of all the plants but I didn't catch a good photo this time)

How the ladies looking? Trimmed pre dried pics would be super. hint hint. I'm in Texas for a few days, sun is nice. Wish we had this winter growing weather in the north. My ghetto connection wasn't the best, but they didn't shoot me. Medicated cookies went through airport security no problem, unfortunately I had to pack clothes so only brought eight. Kinda too far from my babies here, I wonder if they miss me.

I had to leave the grow a couple of years back while we went to Caribbean for 8 days. I had a house sitter that I didn't want to burden with the grow situation so I huddled them all together in a cool dark corner to sleep while we were away. They appeared none the worse for wear. If I can remember correctly they were just about ready to harvest so the cool and dark did not effect any of the bloom cycle.

Well, the trics all look like 'Ready, Steady, GO"! And they have stopped drinking pretty much. So I plan to roll off this grow. Today I took each of the plants from their container and keeping a decent root ball with a little soil I put 2-4 plants each in a 3 gallon bag by strain.

I shut down the heater so the air temp will probably go to 60º with lights off. The canopy will still be 80-85º lights on. These bags will now sit directly on the cold concrete (50-55º). I another day or two I'll stop the lighting cycle and leave them in the dark for a couple of days before I cut and hang.

Nice group of girls there! :thumbsup:

How's that Bubblegum smell? Looks sweet!

I'm always on the lookout for some of the "sweeter" smellin' and tastin' strains.
Please post up your opinion on this one when ya get a taste.

I've got a "Big Buddha" Blue Cheese @ 5 1/2 weeks that's giving a strong "Bazooka Joe" bubblegum odor. First strain I've grown that smelled like this.
