Final update before harvest :):):):):)

everything is going great! come harvest time, it will have been 2 weeks since my last nutrient watering, which is hopefully enough time for the chemical taste to go away.

i did a "flush" sunday, where each plant got 2 gallons of water (both sitting in 2 gallon pots). I have a lot of perlite and sand in each, so i probably got close to 1.25-1.5 gallons back in the bucket i used to catch the run off.

watered yesterday with pH'd water (pH ~6), giving each plant 1/2 a gallon along with molasses. did the same thing today, and saw run off in the trays they are sitting in, which hopefully is carrying the salts/fertilizers with it.


i did a trichome check today, and they "seem" like they are all cloudy, but i could almost swear i saw some clears, but its hard to compare at this point. i havent really seen any ambers yet, which is good. does anyone know if its a rapid turnover rate from cloudy to amber? cause at this rate, i could let it go another week to really develop the buds, but i dont want to look at the trichs one day and see 15%-20% ambers. anyone know?

i would have been pretty upset with myself if i had harvested last week when i had originally planned. they are getting so much thicker and producing so much more resin in the past week, i am almost hesitant to cut it down this weekend. but then again, i love that heady, speedy high. id rather harvest too early, than too late and get couch lock though :weed:

ill be watering with another gallon of water+molasses between the two plants probably saturday, and then chop em down either sunday morning, or monday morning. fuck im so excited! plus im going to florida for thanksgiving while they dry, so the wait will be a lot more tolerable.

awesome job cant wait for the final weight.

also I hope your drying conditions don't fluctuate while you are gone, worst case causing mold. You'll be fine though

Nice job on the grow man.

Just wondering what your grow room was like... Soil...Lighting.. Months in veg.. months in flower..

+rep on the journal and the plant... lookin forward to the harvest.

god damn i couldnt help myself. i chopped down a little popcorn bud site to test it out. i did the microwave steam method to dry it out. hopefully it isnt insanely harsh. i should have enough for the weekend, and then ill be gone on vacation, so they should be dried for ~1 week by then. it was just too tempting.

That shit is nice, you smoke all the time or just every once and while? I saw a homemade dryer box and it looked legit and cheap, i will look for the post and link it here. It does not use heat, but redirects air. :bigjoint:

soil and nutrients were both miracle gro products

lighting has about 300 watts, with 3:1 ratio of 2700K to 6500K. about one month in veg, and then 11 weeks of flower. they are lookin pertty

holy shit. just harvested one of the plants so far. i got 146g wet!!!

i figure when its all dried and cured, it will be half the weight, so about 57g, which translates to a little more than 2 ounces.

this is so much more than i expected, and i still have an entire plant to trim later tonight. the other one looks like it yielded less, but i really dont care at this point haha
