Homemade Stealth Cabinet- Lots of pics!

[EvlMunkee]

Hi Guys,
I know I haven't posted much but I've had some other things goin on.
Things in the cab just keep on tickin, The BH are getting nice fat buds on them and the AK is very close to harvest. The trichs are about 20% amber/ 60% cloudy/ 20% clear. There are still a few white pistils coming out but not many. I was hoping it would get more trichs on it but that may be all that she can do. I was thinkin about cutting off the tallest colas and leaving the rest until I cut the BH. The AK buds are in the 1st, 2nd and 5th pics in the last row. What do y'all think?
Here are some pics from the last few days.

Dude it took me 15 minutes to look through those pics, each one making me higher and higher (I think their was "wood" at some point). They look crazy man!!!

If you haven't read through https://www.rollitup.org/harvesting-curing/28072-harvest-time-tutorial.html take a look and see what you think regarding "ripeness". Dude sure knows what he is talking about. If you're not comfortable waiting, maybe pick your smallest plant and let her keep going to see if there is a difference in potency for you.

Hey Munkee

YUM YUM YUM YUM YUM !!! (i agree with gamber YUM)

I'e been reading and ur on the right line of thinking with taking the top colas and leaving the rest in fact its an excellent way to stimulate lower bud growth i'm defo going to do it either way i reckon ur about 2.5 weeks away from finished product

Hey js,
Yeah, I've read it but I looked at it again to refresh my memory. It's a great tutorial that makes it a lot easier.
So far I have resisted the temptation to cut early but it cant be any more than a week or so away for the AK. The Blue Himalayas are probably 2 weeks away and they smell fantastic!
I will cut the more mature AK buds when they are ready and leave the BH a little longer.

I may as well try it. I have to get the ripe AK buds out and all of the BH need a little more time. I'm watching those trichomes closely but they are slow to go amber.

i think its a matter of personal preference between milky and amber if you prefer your bud to lean closer to the couchlocking effect wait for amber, if u want a more cerebral effect go milky - Jorge Cervantes told me that in one of his films i think

I've decided to go ahead and flush the AK today. In a couple of days I will cut it. The trichs are now about 25% amber so by the time it is flushed it will be time.
The BH will still need another week or so.
Here are some bud pics from a couple of days ago.

This is becoming softcore bud porn munkee. i wonder if its possible for a human male to be attracted to a female plant, all would be well and good until i smoked the misses i imagine

Hi dude, Its nice to see someone else making the effort with their grow cab, in the past I have seen some terrible, poor setups but am glad to see a good setup! yours is simerlar to mine I am still building mine but am using a 600w Hps a 400 and a 250, and am alternating according to weather to keep the lights bright and the temps low, I'll post just the 1 pic of mine I think you'll agree credit where credit's due, I am gunna give you REP. cos its nice to come across a thread thats simerlar to mine yet different enough to make an interesting read! I do have a question I have never SCROGED or done an LST before how s the best way to do so in my cab? I look forward to more updates keep up the top quality work - STELTHY

 

[stelthy]

My setup has changed a bit since the pic, but this is my latest cab pic taken a few weeks ago... I'll update soon anyhow could you please explain to me my query on LSTs and SCROGING many thanks - STELTHY

Good Grief Munk you have a following. Both of you guys are sick OCD Mother F'rs.....and I am soooo Jealous!!

stealthy this is truly beautiful work and you deserve +rep. Throw up a link to your grow and I'll be watching.

Hey Munk, the ladies are looking beautiful!! Regarding the "ripeness" just keep comparing pics of that guys ripe bud and compare to yours. All the hairs are starting to turn so the next thing to watch for are the leaves curling up giving their last bit of energy to her "seeds".

I can't wait for your harvest day.

Now THAT is a nice lookin cabinet, my friend
Congrats on a great job stelthy! Looks like Hydro? If it is, I would not want to SCROG. I am nowhere near a scrog expert but it just sounds like a nightmare. Once the buds get through the screen you don't want to have to pull it off for res maintenance. LSTing though would still work good. I will probably use topping and LSTing to shape my next grow.

It really is an awesome cab isn't it? You ought to have a great crop stelthy. Looks like you watch details.

Thanks js,
The AK is coming down tomorrow I think. It looks ripe, the trichs are almost 50% amber and the leaves have been yellowing for at least a week.
I started flushing yesterday on the AK.

Hey nimbingrower,
Thanks for the rep dude!
I'm impressed with this Auto AK47. It is 1 out of five but it is much bigger and yields much more than I thought it would. The real test will be the smoke test. I don't expect it to be like the original AK but hopefully it will be decent.
