THE SpACE CaB : STEALTH CFL / Home Depot Cabinet / Kerala x Skunk #1 & Bag Seed Grow

Well I picked up another timer at the depot...The problem I then had was that both timers could not fit on the 3-way plug I had....So i removed that, and installed two receptacles...

C99 and PF continue to grow....One is definitely looking a lot more sativish than the other one.....

And the KS continues to yellow..It's real hard to see from the pic but some leaves off the main cola have turned brown and died....I am hoping this is ok...I did a ton of research, and no one has a clear cut answer on how to end your grow....Some say: flush, no flush, feed until the end, stop feeding, etc.....I just hope I made the right move...I'd hate to see her whither off and die without being completely finished....

No one thinks those dead brown leaves that are now in the middle of the cola will affect the smoke ?

I had no idea what to do so I kind of did the middle...I stopped feeding, and have just been watering...Yesterday when I watered I gave her an extra gallon....

OH YA: I got real lucky I think when I was installing those outlets...I had to take off the female end of the power cord for the cab....well as I was about half way through unscrewing the screws I felt a little shock...Then it dawned on me, I was playing around with a live wire ! Lol, I forgot to unplug the cord, lol.....Funny thing is I have one electrician's screwdriver by Klein, and I just happen to have grabbed that one not even really thinking which screwdriver I had...that might have saved me from getting seriously zapped ! lol

EXACTLY 11 WEEKS :

I feel as if I should not have stopped with the nutes....I really still don't see any amber....I will say that most of the trichs do look cloudy though.....And, it looks like the cola is finishing faster than the rest of the plant....Maybe harvest the cola first then let the rest of the plant finish ?

C99 & PF Update - DAY 23 OF VEGG :

well I feed them that mixture for the second time now slightly increasing the Jack's dosage, and they responded well...The one plant (I think the c99) exploded overnight....She grew about 2" and into the lights, lol...The problem I now have is that I cannot raise the light any further....I really wanted to vegg these for a month...It stinks that the KS is taking so long....

Also, they have really outgrown their pots...Their are all kinds of roots that have popped out the bottom, and have been air-pruned....

Well the two new plants have outgrown the vegg chamber....I had to toss them in with the Kerala Skunk....Today is day 83 of flowering and still no amber trichs....

The two new plants are in 1.2 gallon pots, and have outgrown them....As soon as that Kerala is done they will be going in 5.6 gallon pots. Today makes 29 days of vegging..

it looks like you still got some good bud out that cola, fuckin bud rot, that thing was so dense it couldnt get any air in it, that sucks. what was the humidity in there? as far as the trichs, on my good grows of past, ive always waited for a lot of amber and it just never seems to happen, i dont get that??? i wonder if the cfl's have anything to do with that? have you been smoking any of the kerala? if its a good high and youre happy with it, cut it now to make room for the new girls. it should get even better after some curing.

on another subject, aint it funny how this fourm has changed over the past year. theres only a few of us left that follow each others grow from a couple years ago. i wonder where they went, other boards??? ever since that EMP on here, it hasnt been the same, LoL.

Ya cd, that cola was very dense...and it was partly my fault.....I didn't have the big fan blowing on the plant...I was using it more to blow the hot air out....dumb on my part....I guess I was thinking the plant could not handle the air blowing directly on it, lol...what was I thinking ? Humidity was high...not exactly sure the # over 60 or 70% maybe.....I have since put a dehumidifier down there, turned on the central air, and put the fan directly on her.....I noticed the dead/dying leaves went from moist to crispy......so I think I bought myself a little more time in flowering with her....hopefully I can get some amber trichs or it gets stronger....so even without amber trichs you have grown some strong weed you would say ?

Ya who knows where everyone went....what do you mean by EMP ?

I've done a little research on trichs as to what to use possibly to get more....not sure if that equates to amber trichs or not.....

But this is what I've heard using these may lead to more trichs:

Bloombastic - seemed to be the popular choice
Biobizz Top Max
Liquid Karma
Koolbloom - liquid and powder mix

yeah, the rock lock, lsd, fast sweet bud, buddha syrup, kandy kush, fruity cronic, all the real good strains i grew, most of them were real spotty with the amber trichs. maybe like 30/70 amber to cloudy if that, meaning mostly cloudy. its always the freebies that suck, LoL. way to high for flowering, those numbers are great for vegging and you want below 35% for flowering atleast. my numbers here are always 20 to 40 so i dont have to worry about it. the plants still grow fine in veg mode and its great for flowering.

a stronger fan blowing on the plant might have helped, but lower humidity would have been better. the fan blowing on the plant will just make it stronger, which is a good thing. i think i had the mi5 do that (what i thought the seed tree was) it was like a head of lettuce, LoL. the main bud was solid white on the inside from being to moist even with low humidity, it was just so dense.

about a year or so ago when the site was hacked and went down, everybody lost like a month and a half of post/info/pics, i call it the EMP, LoL.

UPDATE: CHOPDOWN ! ! !

well that's it for the Kerala....Plant stopped drinking water, and leaves were dying so it was time...Had to make room for the next bunch....I will say the buds seem to be a lot more sugary so that has to be good....It took me about an hour and 45 minutes to trim those buds last night !!! Anyways here's some pics.....

Oh, and I jarred what was left of that main cola...I think I may have let them get too dry...This was the remaining cola from what was salvaged...It looks more than what it is cause I didn't cram it in jars....The weight on it was 26.9 grams,,,,So I am sure I smoked a gram already, and threw out as much....So the main cola would have yielded about 2 oz if not for the bud rot....Seems lighter than I thought....

Oh, and I smoked some more last night before I went to work...It has definitely gotten stronger...I was going to call my gf when I was driving but I wanted to wait until I got on the expressway where it was easier to talk and drive, lol..I really was concentrating.....So that's a good sign. lol.

man, that shit looks frosty!! make sure keep burpping those jars, that humidity is a little high for drying. looks like a real good haul man, way to go!!
Ya thanks..., that extra week I got out of the bottom colas really seemed to help.....those buds were real sticky last night while I was trimming them !

I jarred the rest of it...I found more mold...I lost at least another 10g in mold, and maybe more...I am researching mold now....

Weight of what I jarred today was 86g....The buds are wicked light...a filled one quart jar is roughly 10g.....

So looks like the total after mold is around 4oz. So in terms of grams per watt it's around .22...Obviously would have been better if not for the mold....

I've been smoking it...It is harsh...It makes me cough up loogies....

It's not that strong...I hope that changes...It like gives you an uppidty head high that doesn't last too long. Really feel nothing in terms of body effects.

hopefully some curring will make it a little better for ya. thats what i hate about this growing shit, when you smoke some and sit there go weeell, i think i feel something and then you try to trick yourself into thinking its good. i remember back a couple years ago smoking shit that would knock your socks off. i havent bought any weed in years, but i havent been that stoned in a while either, LoL. all those other grows have been just good enough to get by. this is why im holding out on ordering seeds. i wanna make dam sure this next grow knocks my socks off!! im really stuck on getting some type of kush strain.

ya bro...I think that's totally what I did, lol...Tricked myself into thinking it was good, lol....

I am definitely going to be more picky from this point forward, although that Kerala was a freebie....

If you want to get knock your socks off weed I suggest you take a look at Sannie's gear....From all the reviews I have read is that his stuff is reaaaaal strong - like world class from what I've read.....I got that Sannie's Sugar Punch on deck for the next grow I think....I want something strong too.

If you do go with Sannie's pay the extra $6 or whatever it is for the tracking on your package...I didn't first time, and never got my stuff....He did work with me though on the second order....

KERALA UPDATE:

Oooooohhhhhh Yaaaaaaaaaaaa, we do have some THC in this stuff after all, lmao.....

I've smoked about two bowls but it's made me very motivated....Definitely an upper - do - things type of smoke.,...Since I smoked and had like 4 cups of coffee we went to Home Depot and bought some new flowers....and paint......then we painted a potter outside.....storm came so we went inside.....Now I'm drinkin a double vodka and tea with lemon, and I am finally cleaning up my grow area.....And this is what I am listening to....wow, cool....this weed just got better....Good thing is this is main cola weed that has been curing for a week or so.....The whole rest of the bottom colas had decent amount of more trichs.....so maybe things aren't half bad after all.....

Onward with the Show ! Time for RIDE ON the SPACE cab !!! oooohhhhhh yaaaaaaaaaaa !!!!!!!


just noticed this might be the first time i ever say both the guitarist and bassists playing double-necked instruments....
