    ok so thought I should stop in and give final numbers. :weed: Not as much as I was hoping for but I got 584 grams. Close to 21 ounces. I learnt a lot hands on that you just can't get from a book or google and enjoyed every step of the grow. I'm going to take my time and plan out my grow area...

    Sorry for the long delay. Work and life have kept me on my toes. So as for the grow-harvest-curing all is going well. Had 20 jars curing but the first batch (6 jars) was ready to be broken down more after 2 weeks in jars. After removing all the stems 6 jars became 3 ¾ full jars. I have...

    :eyesmoke:Hey guys! Glad to see the three of us are sharing and helping each other. I'm really beat! Worked a 12 hour day and then had to do a water change and clean up on one of my aquariums. Then had to do some laundry and stuff (gotta have clean shorts lol). AND then I harvested another third...

    So they say 65 your plants will probably go 80. Grab any old magnifying glass for now and get used to looking at the trichomes. You will see a ......... Look here https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/353534-trichomes-explained.html So that's what we are looking at and what...

    I have heard a few that say go until stem snaps before jaring but those were mostly older videos and literature most now seem to say jar and good bend and flex back and open and remove more often over the first few days... But really it's all about just watching the RH and not letting em get too...

    Good to hear from you EC. I'm so baked smoking my own top shelf lol I think the first batch is good to be cleaned of the larger stems. I kept them on because it created space between the buds in the jars and good hanging points in the initial drying. I'm no longer removing all the buds from the...

    Humidity is staying at 55 to 60 steady now on first batch. going to reduce burping. Remove the big stems and be set to store long term. Stems are also cracking on bend so I know I'm there. Harvested a second batch today :) Day 5 of flushing. Cropped the colas on plants B,E and F. Did A & C tops...

    So I realize with this flush I need to drain and add fresh water to my rez daily. The salts are really leaching out. Day 1 ppms were at 135, tap water level then after one feeding it was at 280. Fed again with same make up and it jumped to 390. I'm going to drain and fill the rez between each...

    After four days of drying in 70 to 72F and 40 to 50 % rh. Dependent upon whether the dehumidifier is on or not. My climate this time a year can go from stone dry to swimming in humidity in 12 hours or less. My grow is all in one room so I have to control the humidity and it affects different...

    Nice Ec. Hope your trip and auto burp went well :) I have to hit 448 to be mildly happy (hoping for 1.5 times that = Mr optimistic) This first run has been fun but I'm definitely taking a break between the next grow and basically start over with the next one. I want to dedicate a room entirely...
