Through further reading that rosin press has no control on pressure it seems. Which in case I'm actually more curious in the vice style.

I think I'm going to somewhat make
My own. They sell the heating plate kits seperately and I'll buy an actual hydraulic press seperate. The plates bolt right onto the press piston. I can make a 20ton press for just a little bit more then the one in the link.

I have a cob light as well as my blurple which I actually chose clw uses osram chips which are of much higher quality than the Chinese blurple & clw chooses to continue to use them when every one else has gone cob or q/b I know budmasters in England are powered by osram cobs that are blurple & getting good results I guess in a few months down the road I'll know how the osram performs

Well we can see how the osram performs in my thread. However they weren't nearly as big as they could be going into flower. Only problem is I don't have much to compare to. So I tried some of my local buddy's and believe it or not it's some great smoke. So I'm either going to be really disappointed with mine or it's going to be really great.

So it's hard for me to know if I'd have bigger denser nugs with a different light. Once I can get a tally of weight that should help

Your buds look good I've had good results with the quality of my smoke it's the yield that I'm working on the main reason I went led is operating cost I'm running 2 tents on 540 watts of power not including fans or cooling which you need no matter what light you use as well as heat in the winter I ran a 600 & a 1000 hid light for awhile & got huge power bills

Yea, I'm honestly looking forward to a fresh start. They are really getting too much nitrogen which I know can actually slow bud growth. With the nutrient setup I have its near impossible to not give them too much N during flower.

Awesome glad to have you back! Yea I've noticed if you stop posting in a thread it will stop alerting you to new posts. And yea they seem to be nearing the end! Probably another week or two.

Day 38 Flower
So I pulled out the scope, and I'd say they are getting more cloudy and maybe I'm seeing what cloudy really is. I still don't really see any amber though so I'm thinking it may still have another week or two? New to this so don't have to much of a gauge for time remaining.
Edit: according to calendar and strain info known, I would have 2 weeks 3 days for the early end of harvest range.

I am looking to do a bucket swap though as my nutrient mix has to be out of whack. Ppm has been gradually going up. I'm figuring my tap is 150-200ppm of mystery juice so every time I'm adding to the buckets that shit is stacking up on top of what ever was excess nutrient. So probably give them one last fresh bucket swap.

Yea I have the general idea and have looked at them at one of my local buddies in his many grows. But viewing them on the digital microscope through my computer screen is a little different. So without knowing how cloudy they can become before going amber on that screen I won't have a good gauge of how cloudy is cloudy. A lot of these pictures are also taken with better microscopes that can focus at multiple points. You can tell my cheap one has difficulty getting focus through the peaks and valleys.

This thing is cool and all, and would be possible to actually search for microscopic pests, but I'm thinking of getting a simple jewlers loupe for simple and easy trichome checking.

Yea I'm gonna give em some fresh buckets and bring them back down. I've been topping off fresh for the last week and still going up.
