First Grow! Sealed/Closed Room, 2400 watts, CO2, Mini-Split AC, SmartPots, Dehum!

I don't know if it's like money but I will say that on my last grow (first) I pulled 2.6 lbs. I had buds all over the place!! There were jars here, bags there, random piles over there. It was pretty fucking funny. In college I would spend an hour picking out bud flakes that fell in the carpet. I found a bud under my table saw last night that was probably equal to a $40 bag. I was like "huh, where did you come from?". Put him on a shelf to deal with later.

Good problem to have

Good cure links. Can't wait to see the conclusion and next round. Clones huh? What strains for next round?

Can I just interrupt thing to tell you that Endless Sky clones take forever to fucking root and then the roots grow slow as hell. 3 weeks from cutting to transfer? Seriously?

Thank you.

Clones of as of yet unknown strain.. we shall see!! I may have just been lucky enough to stumble onto something brilliant thru a riu connection! cant say much right now, just hoping it all works out smoothly.. Ill keep ya posted.

Well I can't say anything as he is applying for patents but he I'd developing some lighting hardware. You could probably PM him if your curious. He's in CO as well and I know he wants some growers to run tests.

all i can say is WOW! setup and everything +rep

UPDATE! Day 6 of Curing for the Jock Horror Buds...

So today is about day 6 of the Jock Horror buds sitting in jars. I've learned a few things...one I probably could have dried it one more day, keep that in mind for the LSD harvest upcoming, as it was very wet the first day or two. Also, my Wal-Mart little corded probed digital hygrometer is much less accurate than my newly acquired Caliber III Digital Hygrometers (see left jar). Caliber III shows much higher rH% readings. So I've been adjusting accordingly to get the rH% down....left the lid of the jars open last night for about 10 hrs. Still high levels of rH%. I've pulled them out of the jars twice and left them out for an hour or so. I've been burping the jars about 3x/day. Still high rH% levels...my ambient air is about mid 60sF and about 25-30% humidity right now.

This isn't to say anything is gone wrong, because it hasn't. Just trying to follow Simon's Perfect Cure to a tee. Gotta get that rH% level to 60-65%, and mine is still wanting to hit 70%. Will keep a close eye on it. Here are the pics of my jock buds in the jars. They look less than they are because the hygrometers smoosh them down and the high rH% helps compress them into a big ball also. Thus, my reasoning for taking them out of the jars some too.

The smell is still mostly green, but not terrible, and I have noticed from burping the jars that the smell is SLOWLY SLOWLY starting to come back, I expect to have something tasty in 2 weeks.

THANKS RIU!

LOL I got My Caliber III the other day and I just love it. Fits perfect in the mason Jars, no more guess work. I need about 10 more LOL

Shit I need about 30 more LMAO. I didn't get the caliber III, I got some other ebay ones for like $10 each. I got two and just figured the measurements in those two will be good for the whole lot. I am debating using a big tub or something for the first week or so of jarring. I just have two many jars. 48 right now. Should have gotten the gallon jars instead of the quarts. oh well.

I'm wondering the same thing, is a bigger container better for curing? seems it would be easier to maintain a stable environment.

I think as long as you can keep from crushing them your going to be golden. I am thinking about picking up one of those big long and short containers designed to store clothes under your bed.

I mean glass is best as it doesn't have a magnetic charge like plastic does, but I can't see me knocking off tons of trichomes anyways. The whole glass jar thing just seems like a pain in the ass and I suspect is for those growers that have a couple ounces, not a couple of pounds.

True about glass and bigger harvests, but check out the ball widemouth jars. I can easily fit 3 ounces plus per jar. Those are the big ass jars in my pics.

Also, 420jars.com makes a huge ass jar. Its way overpriced, but it has a metal push seal type lid on it. Its the biggest one they make. Like 2.5 gallns or some shit. I picked one up recently for any main colas i dont wanna break apart to cure. This jar can easily hold a pound or more id say. Its fucking huge. Maybe 2 lbs. I put a qp in it and it swallowed it up like nothing with like a bajillion times more room still.

Ps caliber iii rocks!! Love mine!!

Oh LF and bonzi...

Just remembered this since were discussing non glass curing...my humboldt bud cures in turkey bags. They are food grade and air tight to hold in baked meat juice and shit. Of course their natural ambient air is super humid and cool, much different than mine, but still....and hes harvesting 35 bs plus per cycle, so....lil different..but the thought remains...

Turkey bags are huge and cheap...

Put a half pound or pound in one and tie a knot in it. Open it twice a day to burp it. Very similar principle, but much easier and cheaper than glass.

I fucking hate pulling the buds out of the jar. Feels like im breaking trichs left and right getting them thru the lid...

My LSD is coming up on 2 weeks flower and it's just getting to bud. Wanted to let you know a I am still
watchin' and waiting for your LSD harvest. That Jack Horror looks great! It's not the amount it's the

Bout' 2 week'ish. Thx for tuning in bro!

Update! Day 63 Flowering, Day 123 Total...
Nothing terribly exciting here, just waiting for these fuckers to finish. Argh, they are taking forever. Plumped up fat ass thick colas, but the hairs are still white, even tho they are receeding. Scoped em again and thick fat little resin heads sitting on the stalks, mostly milky, no ambers yet tho....what ya think? Think I will be done in 2 weeks? Also, the rH% levels have been rising a lot at night, getting into the low 50's at night, too high for my liking now. I cranked the dehumidifier down to 30% to see if that keeps it sub-50's, or at least like a high rH% of like straight up 50, and not 54 or some shit..

Also, I added two Air King 9126 model commercial fans. These are the large pedestal oscillating fans. Put one on either side of these ladies to really create a wind tunnel. This should help mitigate any mold chances these last 2 weeks...substantial breeze! So now there is 1 wall mount, 2 floor fans, 2 air king pedestal oscillatings, and one inline fan sitting on top of the carbon filter blowing on these ladies. Thats some serious air movement now!!!
