Maaaaaaaaaaaannnn I'm fucking DEAD tired. Started packing at 9am... I just gave up for the day and there's a shit ton left. Haven't even started in the garage or my upstairs yet, not to mention tearing apart my grow room once the ladies are moved out tomorrow night. You're damn right MOVING SUCKS!! lol Thanks BKB I'm gonna crash out for a few hours now...

Thanks for sharing. Look forward to more to come
Thanks for stopping by. Harvest should be in a few more weeks!

Thanks mugan lol DICK! ahahah Actually nobody noticed in my last post with pics... I dropped a heavy ass fan on one of my kush girls. One branch snapped but it only had a little popcorn nug on it. The other two branches that got bent are ok. I tied them up with strings to give them more support. I wanted to cry lol but they are doing ok. Still turning red at the top leaves on a few plants. Some are turning purple. All run off on all plants is 6.5 on the nose so I have no idea why these bitches are doing this. I figure if I mention the leaves turning red in every post that someone will have an answer for me lol Still no luck.

There's a slight sign of trichomes but not much steeZz. I just fed them with big nutes last night and I added the kool bloom powder for the first time. I'm really hoping they take to it nicely and don't burn or stress too bad. I need these girls to blow the fuck up!!

I'm glad that last night was their last night here. Apparently one of my lights keeps shutting off then turning back on. I have no clue as to WHY but if I had to guess I would say it's my ballast overheating. I can't put my hand on them for longer than 2 seconds without them burning the shit out of me.

Yea I only used the superthrive when I first transplanted my clones into their 5gal homes. Other than that I used it here and there, never twice in a row or anything real close together so they should be fine (i hope). DUDE! I was not expecting these kush girls to get so fat and dense... but each time I look at them the buds are getting tighter and tighter. I'll try to get some shots tonight. Yea my folks house has internet so updates won't be an issue.

Ok now you're getting me worried...lol. The ladies will be traveling about 10 miles to their new home. What will the stress come from exactly? Just the change in light intensity?

Something else I've been looking into is this dudes 4 day bud dryer: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/62900-4-day-bud-dryer-40-a.html
It's not the proper way to dry and cure I know, but there are a ton of people who attest to this. From what I've read in this entire thread is that you cannot tell the difference between buds that were cured for 3+ weeks in jars or the ones dried in 4 days... The longer this stuff sits in jars, the longer I'm without my own house and the longer it is until my next grow begins.

Thoughts about the bud dryer? Anyone?
hey dubzzy, i have never heard of a bud dryer. I dont understand why putting buds in a jar would have any effect on getting another grow started? is it a state law stopping you?
I wouldnt rush drying buds.. they need a slow even dry time from what Jorge Cervantes has said in the bible.. but he might be outta date. good luck dubz. but i do understand about caution in the cure jars. I didnt burp my super lemon haze properly, it obviously was not dry enough and it got mold. check your cure jars regularly for any moistness that might return to the bud
good luck moving dubz

Hey DAT :) I must apologize for my wording up there^^ I messed up! Instead of hanging the buds in an open room to dry for 2-3 weeks, this guys 4 day bud dryer seems to work magic and eliminate that process. The buds still need to be cured in jars for a few weeks AFTER being dried in the 4 day bud dryer. Anything to take time off of the entire dry/cure process without effecting taste, thc content, etc... is a MUST for me. From the looks of it quite a few people use a bud dryer and have the same results as normal hanging for 3 weeks. What is stopping me from another grow is I need to 'cash in' on this one first! After this one is done I'll be moving into another house, where I can start grow #2 :D

Thanks for the luck everyone. Move time for my girls is T minus 2 hours and 15 minutes. I'm getting nervous lol Wish I had some help to move these things!!!

I had good results with the dryer yep... But I only need to hang mine for 5-7 days without the dryer as long as the humidity in the room is kept around 50-55%. Either way that should be the target RH. If anyone requires 2-3 weeks for the buds to dry I would say they most likely are running their humidity too high for drying. Good luck with the move dude!

How's things Dub?
I've never, ever heard of a 3 week dry.
Hang drying takes a few days. Otherwise you'll crisp your buds to death and curing won't really help much.

The move is complete and seems to be a success! Friday night at 2am I had the most stressful car ride EVER lol All 12 girls were packed into my pops' hooptie van and taken to their new home. There was a ton of people on the road...my guess is most of it was bar traffic. I kept my eyes in front of me and in the rear view mirror. Each time I passed a street light I would look back and see all my buds swaying back and forth lol I was watching to see if anyone was following me but I made it safely with no tail :D

Here are the girls settling into their new grow tent:

There's still a few odds and ends to wrap up in the tent. ie: c02, controllers, timers, etc... but overall the girls are here and this week everything will be hooked up.

Yesterday I found a little something on a bush outside my folks house and dubbed it my new friend Manny! Here he/she is:

2011-08-13_04-56-01_249.jpg
That was the last time Manny was seen LOL It's somewhere in there but we can't find it!

Also, we came to the conclusion that my kush girls are suffering BADLY from root rot. We picked up some 29% H202 and will be treating them first thing when the lights come on today. The cheese plants were also showing a tiny bit of red so to be safe all 12 plants will start receiving the H202 with every feed. The red is really bad as you can see...

I will do my best to catch up on everyone's grow today or tomorrow. This has been a fast paced non-stop bust-yo-ass weekend and I am fucking exhausted!

Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend! See you all soon!
