Rsawr's 5 Strain Disaster

[Rsawr]

Week 2. The stretch wanes. Baby buds are here in force! Small tent gets more light per square foot, I have noticed it tends to start flowering a few days faster. Maybe next grow I'll add a second light to my 4x3 tent and see what happens.

Everyone is a bit dark green. This is my first run with maxibloom only throughout. I am sitting around 600 ppm. I might back off to 500 and see if they like that a bit more.

Little tent: lemon pineapple on the left is so far not fasciating further. Pistash on the right is happy and carefree.

Big tent: twins on the left and middle are still creeping higher, blue cindy seems pretty happy at her height. Clearly shorter than the twins.


Ignore the splint on blackberry. I didn't slam one of her mains in the cubby door last night... Still no obvious gender, but she is only at day 12 of flower I think. Definitely in the stretch phase. She gets more sts tomorrow. Cmon balls.


Blue skies and fluffy clouds.

Week 3 complete!
Big tent: Twins still creeping? Or maybe they're done now. I put cindy up on a bucket! :]

Little tent: Nothing much to report. Few lanky lemon tops got supercropped. Light on %100


Still no balls on flippy, gonna mix stronger sts. She has pistils. >;[

Keep em frosty.

Looking great @Rsawr what's your plans for the new tent?

 

[Rsawr]

Thanks! :]
New tent (3x3x6) is going to replace my 4x2x5 after this run. Add some much needed headroom, and a bit more space for equipment inside. Still planning on 2 plant runs in it. The old tent can be a dedicated drying tent!

How nice will it be to have a dedicated drying room? Do you currently pause between grows to dry.

 

[Rsawr]

No, I usually hang in the room itself until one of the two tents are free. Makes the house reek, even with a carbon filter running in the room...
This will be nice!

lol I bet! Can't get a negative pressure in a large room.

Alriiiight. Week 4 complete tomorrow, but I won't be home during lights on for pictures. Cruising height achieved I think. Got an unruly twins top that's just above the lights, I'll try to find a good spot to bend it down into later. Twice a day feedings, bless my back. 550ish ppm, still rocking maxibloom.
Big tent:

Little tent:

STS flippy is still throwing pistils. Mixed a stronger batch. No, YOUR glove had a hole in it, and YOU have one weird stained finger...

Keep it cloudy.

Week 5 down. Halfish way there.
Flippy reversed! Sweet!


Big tent:


Little tent:


Both tents are fighting a bit of wind burn, big tent is running a few degrees hotter than it would like in the last throes of summer at 88ish but no big deal. It's not getting hotter. They'll make it.

Smooth rips! :]

 

[Rsawr]

6 weeks down. Nothing much to update aside from having to add yoyos.
Big tent:

Little tent:


Peace.

 

[Rsawr]

Week 7 down.
Lil flippy is going to be plucked for pollen to be stored for next time soon.

Big tent: Oops, floppy town. They sagged towards one side. I added a fan, some yoyos, trunk ties, stakes, and a second exhaust. Should be able to hold themselves up now, but it ain't pretty.

Little tent: less stretchy stems, less flop. Okay okay, more light in my big tent next grow. I hear ya...
The tops picture is one of each that by training ended up right near eachother.


Get frosty, friends.

Gorgeous jungle you've got there.

 

[Rsawr]

Gorgeous jungle you've got there.

Thanks. It's starting to smell nice whenever I open the tents. I am getting excited.

 

[Rsawr]

Week 8 complete.
RIP lil flippy. I cut off all the male flowers and tossed the rest.

Big tent: sustained collapse. The measures to keep the floppy ladies upright is so far working.

Little tent:

Next generation begins. Gonna be trying out some new lights over these. I bought a mars hydro light to check it out. And I won a viparspectra light. Fun fun!

Peace and nice snacks.

 

[Rsawr]

Week 9 complete. I think my time in trim jail is fast approaching... *sigh*
Big tent: leaning ladies.


Little tent:


New kids on the block: 6/6 popped, bubba's sis is being a bit funky.


Peace.

 

[Laughing Grass]

Do you do all your trimming by yourself? Ugh you're going to be busy.

How is the smell?

 

[Rsawr]

Small tent smells like pineapples and something creamy. Big tent smells like lots of berries. I get cherry from one of the twins.

I trim alone, I'll be whining about it in WnB next weekend, worry not. ;]

Bummer, I still think there's room for a mobile service that trims for hobby growers. I'd pay a $100 for someone to trim my weed.

Tell singlemalt it smells like hawaiian pizza.

 

[Rsawr]

Hokaaaaaay....
Big tent: dead rippy cept for Cindy. She looks all beat up but whatever, I have a few weeks.

Little tent is now THESE GUYS: the funky leaves on bubba's sis are resolving.

Got 3x Seedsman Bruce Banger (one will be culled)
2× Seedsman Peyote Forum
1x katsu Bubba's Sis

Chopped 4 of the 5 big girls
Pistash and lemon pineapple fell yesterday, the twins today.

One of the twins smells like cherries plus garlic. Rsawr is sad.

Very impressive!! I’m hoping I can get my indoor rotation close to that. Much respect
