you use 1 pack per quart? i have been trying 2 and like 4 in half gallon jars. will 1 do the trick?
also look at the fan leafs frosted up on eurohighs plant lol. from the stem all the way out to the fan leaf amazing stuff. i may have to get some of that dinafem gear to replace my critical kush with that critical +

Their site says the 8g pack should handle an OZ but I also kind of compared it to the containers the C-vault was pushing with them. I can fit more like 2oz +- in a quart so thats what Im trying out. This is the first time I've used the Bovedas. I also tried to dry and cure my bud to about the 95% point like I normally would. I think the less "work" you leave for the packs the longer they will last.

Yeah looks like my girls will be ready about the same time or later. I'll be pulling a few colas right around Dec25th but the rest of them will be ready in the weeks following. Unfortunately (unless I pull my unripened buds right now) I won't have shit ready to smoke on Christmas Day. Luckily I have some awesome friends for whom I've done favors for all year...thanx yall for gettin me through...you know who you are. Updated pics coming soon...

just jarred up my big girl. after 6 days drying she came in at 59.2g of good smokable bud, and 20g of hash making material, so all together over 80g from 1 plant. I'm pretty happy with that number, even though a lot of the buds are looser than I'd like...
also, just cut down the small one. so I'll have buds with 1 week of cure under their belt as well as buds that are JUUUUUST dry enough to smoke come christmas
gotta love variety!

I like how you do it eurohigh... Do you plan to reveg that healthy stem? Or clone her? or both?

Pity...after I harvest & have a defoliated but otherwise healthy stem living in a bucket. I change the nutes, change to a MH bulb & flip on the lights to 24hrs continuously. In a week new growth returns...in 3 or 4 weeks they are ready for flowering again. Thought maybe you were planning to do the same. Nice yieldThanks
No all thats not bud and trim goes in the trash..

Same same same... I've found the only way to easily reveg is to cut your plants back down almost to the stems...just leaving a few leaves for respiration- they bounce right back after a couple weeks of 24hrs light & then I either allow them to get back to normal size to SCROG train or flip right back into 12/12. If you leave any bud- even tiniest of popcorn budlets- it will grow back much larger during veg & attract mold.
I have no idea how many times you can reveg a plant with no detrimental side effects but this will be the 3rd harvest from my current girls which will be ready in the coming weeks. I will only try to get one more reveg out of these girls & then clone them out to preserve a couple phenos as mamas & clones. Essentially what I've been doing up to now is cloning except I'm not actually taking the cuttings- I just leave them on the plant & flower them out. Problem is I want to change my setup into a rdwc & that's impossible with these fully mature root balls & 3/4" diameter stems. I plan to upgrade my system by adding a separate veg tent for mamas & clones. Then it's on like donkey kong... Perpetual garden is the goal- tired of running out of bud between harvests

Amber alert! Was looking at my trichs under mag & saw a few amber...harvest time approaches
Yea i could do that but there are 3 things against that..
1. I suspect beginning of rot root in one of the plants.. Im not sure but it looked a bit brown compared to the other 7 roots..
2. It smells too much.. Its absolutely insane! no joke it reeks my carbon filter could not take the smell and i had underpreassure in my tent..
3. I dont think i will be growing this strain ever again.. The appeal is not what i had in mind.. And the other strain i know so well kicks this ones *** .. But ill know more when im done curing it.
Uhh sounds really good.. Im excited on your behalf... Happy trimming ^^

ahh well there ya go... Rule #1 of reveg- don't reveg it if you don't want more of it... Root rot is a major concern of mine as well. I was adding gallons of h2o2 every week to stave off the funk but found that pondzyme & low res temps are more effective than hydrogen peroxide. See: Heisenberg tea stickyYea i could do that but there are 3 things against that..

Yea i know what you mean.. Ive lost 4 plants to root rot in my life.. Thats 4 too many.. My water was 18c all the way in this grow..
