lol Sin, I just came in from my grow room.. It's 12:47 am.. I went out there at around 10:00 with about 2 g's of some Ultimate Indica that my buddy gave me to try.. I didn't have anything special to do out there, no maintenance or anything.. I just sat there staring at my buds.. I couldn't stop... I would roll a joint, smoke it.. Stand up, crouch down, adjust some branches, sit down again, stare some more.. Pack a bowl, stand up, look around.. LOL Next thing I knew, the weed was gone, and it was almost 3 hours later, and I still didn't want to come back in. I could sit there forever "Watching the grass grow" It's my favorite place to be, and the Wifey is really starting to hate it..:( Oh well, she smokes like a boss too, and knows what the end result will be.. Who cares if I have to make things up to stay out there for hours at a time..:)

Lol, early on in my first run I was experiencing the EXACT same thing haha. I'm going thru it all over again lol.
I had to have it out with my lass about the amount of time I was spending with them lol.
Now she spends all her extra time elevated lol, so arguing about what I'm doing lol, she just can't be bothered!

It's also good when you're thinking of way to upgrade and improvise around the room lol.
The Smoke & stare lol. That should be written in the books as a technique lol.

:peace:

Hey Tokin, thanks for swinging by dude!! Lots of people say its not good to smoke around your plants, for obvious reasons, but I have a decent ventilation set up, and my room stays pretty smoke free. Like you said, its the most relaxing place to kick back and smoke. It's like my own little Tropical Island. :leaf:

This is my first SOG run, so the numbers are yet TBD. There are 18 plants on my table, and I would be happy with a lb. I vegged them about a month and tried to keep them short due to space restrictions. My last grow I did about .5g's/watt. Anything over that I would be happy with, and consider it an improvement..:) Things have gone real well this run, and they are getting noticeably bigger every day.

I update at the end of each week, so stay tuned for end of Week 7 pics this Sunday.

Finally got out there, and things are looking awesome! I love this stage of the game because they are in swell mode. Calyxes are exploding everywhere! I gave everything a good flush last Monday (beginning wk 7) and things are starting to yellow up nicely. Even some purple in there.

I have been checking some Trich's here and there, but haven't found any Amber's yet. My Blueberry Kush is 90% milky, so they should start turning soon. I remember from last grow, once they start, they come quick. I plan on harvesting all my BBK tops on the 25th, which is exactly 8 weeks. I will let the popcorn get some good light for another week, until the Great White Shark & Chemo are done for sure. Still not positive about this Purple Kush. Some looks like it will be done in 8, some 9, so we will see what happens there.

This is the time where you have to be super patient. It all looks so good, but I know if I cut early, the last 3 months were a waste. Same with a Dry/Cure. If you mess up your dry, you can ruin the taste/smell of some dank buds. Jar it too quick, you risk mold. :wall:

On to the good stuff.

You've got some buds! Should end up with a good harvest!

Any plans for the trim? hash? you have some sugary leaves...!

Looks like the Chemo is pretty far along. How much longer are you planning for this one? From what little I can see/know, it looks closer to done than even the BBK?

Thanks for having a look Mr. I always make some gooey ISO oil with my trim.. I love that shit..:) The Chemo I usually let go 9 weeks. Breeder site says you could take it a 7 weeks, but meh.. Trich's are still about 60-40 Milky/Clear.. I will probably take the Tops next week with the BBK.

Here are a few ISO pics from my last harvest. No chlorophyll, straight golden brown goodness.

End of week 8 yesterday!!!!!!. I took down the Blueberry Kush Tops only. Ambers set in fast over the week. I got them at about 10ish% I will let the rest of the popcorn buds fatten up over the next week, until everything else (Chemo, Great White Shark & Purple Kush) is done.

There are clearly 3 different Phenos of the BBK. Total, I took off about 25-30 tops. They are hanging now. I rigged up a spot to dry, in the room outsider my grow room. Tested the temps and RH over the last week, and they range from 70-75 temps and 50-65% RH. Should work out just fine. I set up a fan to circulate the air in the drying room. Not directly on them, but they are gently dancing on the line.

I haven't taken any pics of the remaining lady's yet.. will get those in a bit. Here are a few from last night.

Nice!! I went for the Small LST'ed plants this time. None of them are over 24 in. I should have supported them better, as you can above, the weight of the buds are making the arms fall. It was ok on the table, towards the end, it let some good light in to the middle of the plant.

I have never tried AK-47, at least not that I knew was AK47 for sure. I have them on the list of seeds to pick up when I finally do order some.
