Lol i had like 10 from you liking everything! But yeah man, that happens to me with your journal too, sometimes it just drops off so I just gotta go and check on my own it's weird.
I've been saying another week or two for a month now haha! But yeah maybe another week or two ;)
I reckon another week or two! haha
She looks like shes gonna be well worth the wait anyways!

Haha you can copy that now and paste it back here in two weeks!

I can't argue with that! I love the smell of her too, a real strong like spice smell, and super resinous as i said before. I got quite the catch on this freebie!

LSD 22 days in flower. Getting all frosty already, even on the lower budsites. It looks so much like my frosty Blue Mystic I had grown, wondering if it's that they both are predominantly indica. Amnesia being mostly sativa it didn't get the frosty and similiar leaves around the budsite like blue mystic and lsd.

Put in the 250w hps today, totally forgot about switching from the mh to hps since i'm flowering. Actually glad i didn't earlier though because it may have contributed to my lack of stretch(which i'm happy with). I'm hoping now with the hps running i'll get a little more stretch to put me at a perfect 8-9" above the net. Currently at about 5".


Amnesia is still ripening up, wish i could take good pictures but it's not easy to do. I took some small bud samples from different parts of the plant yesterday and examined them under my lil microscope to see the trichromes. My large buds on top have all this almost new fresh growth from the past month that still has to ripen up. Still unswollen with white hairs and they have a lot of clear trichromes. LSD will prolly finish before Amnesia haha

Thanks man. Lol seriously, i just want lsd to be under the 600w, that's all i care about now. I could fit it in the tent with Amnesia but Amnesia is a whole lot taller so the 600w would probably be too far away that i'd be better off with the 250w inches away anyway

I've read through this ages ago, but can't remember how long have you vegged the LSD for to get that bushy?
My bush is on par with her and she was vegged for near 3 months.
She's looking prime though!

I just think of DWC as a more effort than soil. Am a lazy grower :D

DWC is a piece of piss, soil to me is much harder work! Much better yields with DWC as well! Mmmmmmmmm DWC :razz:

But soil is literally set it up and leave it alone.
I have set mine up to autofeed/water for a full week now. So I can literally leave the tent zipped up and not look at it for an entire week.
DWC is going to need more maintenace than that :P

I agree that DWC will giv higher yields though. No one disputes that.

Yeah she will be splendid under the 250 for now mate! She can't be fucking far off now, surely lol

I always leave mine for around a week, (7 days at the most, I refuse to work longer) I just get a good mate to come in and top the res up to the line I have drawn!
If no one was available, I'd just get a header tank and fit a ball valve into the DWC bucket. Hope this information is of interest to you!

Intriguing. Was under the impression DWC needs constant PPM and PH checks. That and draining and refilled the res every 2 weeks at a minimum.

Do you drain the system down often?

Sorry if i'm hijacking the thread with my Q's, can take it to a pm if ya like :P

I drain and refill every week, never had any major pH or CF/EC/PPM issues, I try and work those out depending on what the plant needs, and if she doesn't like it, she has to work around my lifestyle!
I don't do too bad conisdering I'm not a grower who can be there every day and make sure everything is perfect, I wish I could.

Sometimes I think being there everyday & giving them too much attention is part of my problem since I've retired I haven't done near as good as when I worked all the time lol

Only 4 weeks, and she had a 1 week transition to flower under 12/12. I fill the screen while taking advantage of the first couple weeks of flower stretch. If you go back to page 6 to my post on March 31st you'll see how small she was before she stretched. I flipped to 12/12 on March 31st and she showed first signs of flower on April 8th.

Gotta love DWC! Trust me I'm a lazy grower myself, but it pays off for the extra DWC work, as you can see!

You be pushing to get a 600w in there. A 400w would be killer hooked up to a big arse fan / cool tube.
I have the 600w in my tent with Original Amnesia, once Original is done I will be putting LSD down in the tent, that's what I was referencing. LSD is in my closet under the 250w, I wouldn't be able to handle a bigger light due to temps where LSD is, so yeah no 600w in the closet. No central air in my house so the basement can handle the 600w and only 250w upstairs.

I hear that, sometimes I wish I was like @TheStickMan where I'd be leaving for a couple days so I could stop constantly babying them lol I was terrible at it when I first started, I would worry about every little thing, now i just let shit go and fix itself.

Yeah in the end Amnesia was under the 250w for 4 weeks in flower, so after this week LSD will match that 4 weeks so it's not that bad, probably just have one more week under it vs Amnesia. I have LSD set up a lot better than Amnesia though too so I'll hopefully get better results if she can genetically par up with Amnesia on the yield side.
The poor buds can't handle their weight anymore, I just had to do my third tie up trying to keep those things from falling over. They're all leaning on each other and shit. The biggest culprit is one of the largest buds, it has a ton of white hairs and unripe bud on the top and side of it but on the other side and bottom half it's 10x riper. It's certainly getting there though, I can actually see it finishing up day by day now so I'm close.

I think those samples I took to see trichromes I pulled off a few days ago are dry enough to smoke tonight so I'm gunna give Amnesia a little test tonight. :bigjoint:

That's what is the best part your reward for all that time spent
