Make a delivery today that will pay the bills for the next two months. It allows me to do things like yesterday I roofed a habitat for humanity house by my self. Those guy's are so easy to impress. From what I see there is no way he will get a conservative vote ever. I think some would even vote for Stalin first.

I need a recommendation for a new scale. Went to off load some today and my scale varies by 5 grams in a ounce. I suspected as much but had to confirm with another scale. So if you can tell me of a good one let me know.

On another note I checked with some one how a sample was. I had told them to wait a week to smoke it. They went right a head and smoked it after 1 day. It had been 3 and a half days since I had cut it down. They said that it was a real smooth smoke and tasted great. So it was either the drip clean or the pro-tekt or both. But when I had told them when I had cut it they could not believe that they didn't cough. I want to thank B. Self Reliant for getting this on his thread and Crazy Composer for mentioning the silica.

So far everyone likes the Big Blue. They say it is not a overpowering high, smokes smooth with no coughing, taste great, and smells wonderful. Hopefully now that the heat is controlled in my new flower room it will be even better.
 
Hey quick way to check ur scales is with either a nickel or a dollar. most nickels are 5 grams and a dollar bill is usually right at a gram. I use the same scale that I use for reloading for my stuff, very accurate and also can b recallibrated.

Nice job IC, do you let the flush drain on the floor or do you have a floor drain?

I let it go on the floor. It drains out the side of my foundation pretty quickly. Sorry to hear about your power outage. I hope things get better for you.

Today I put the next six plants in the room, so tomorrow will be their first day of darkness. The Plants that were in the room are about 50% milky rights now.

So the new plants are the following: 3 Big Blue, 2 Snow Dawg, and 1 OG Chem Dawg. I tagged them and put them in behind the old plants to get them ready. Below are two pictures of the next run. If you look close you can see my tag on the one picture. The tag will be put on the screens when the plants are tied up later this week.

It does not look like I will finish trimming tonight. I was over on Bobbles thread telling him to get his run going and to stop with the unimportant things for now. Well It occurred to me that I was doing less important things when I was trimming. So I went over to the room and sprayed for mold then tied up the new plants so I can get the room back in order. I cleaned the floor and now it is back up and running. The new plants have just over 7 weeks left.

So back to the trimming her is some root porn from one of the hempy buckets with the plant it came from.


So back to trimming and I will get the last one in the morning.

My brain is too numb to remember, but was this harvey the first in the new configuration?
The third photo is the new round? They look huge and very well developed. Have they already finished their stretch?
Can't wait for my first sativa donut so I can have full screens like that!
Great job bro!

This is the first harvey in the new room. I think that is at the end of stretch. These are also indica dominate like 90% so they don't stretch much. I have to veg for a while to get them to the size I need to fill the screens. This run is only 5/6 full as I needed to put 3 plants from my other room in here short term. I have not posted the new round yet as I just got it tied up and trimmed last night. It is 3 big blue, 2 snow dawg, and 1 og chem dog. Not sure what the snow or og will do yet as they are new for me. The big blue is a good strain if you put the time in to veg.

Arminius I thought I would show you my new plants so you can see what I start with. I don't know how much the snow dawg will stretch yet so I put it between the big blue. I know the big blue will only stretch a few inches, maybe 6 total. These were put into this room on the 6th so not long ago. the snow dog is all the way to the left and the other two are big blue.

Well I have to go scrub the skin off of my hands again. I will try to get some shots of the new room up today or tomorrow.
Try some fresh squeezed lemons or lemon juice from a bottle. :D Works a treat.

Great setup you have there... glad to see you working it out.


Couple tips that will improve your yield and quality. :dance013:
(Your plants look just like another grower's plants I helped out)

Ease up on the nutes... your plants look stressed from veg through end of flower. Try to err on the light side so they get lighter green when you mess up... not darker.

Ease up on the nitrogen... Dark green is a bad sign.... super soft velvety leaves is a bad sign as well... avoid both. Too much nitro going into flower makes for but that is leafier, fluffier and with more stem. Too much nitro through the entire flower will hurt your potency. Less thc will be produced.

Move the lamp further away the last 2 weeks... keeps from vaping off the more fragile turpenes that are being produced.

Again, you have an awesome setup there... you're going to love it when it's dailed in. :D

FWIW: I highly recommend Maxibloom and/or GH Flora 3-part used according to Lucas, Rez or Gr3atfulH3ad... depending on your setup. I recommend using those and no other additives... until you have everything else dialed in.

Stay Safe! :blowbubbles:
