First grow in 10 years.

You grew a beast!

Thanks man, I really had no clue at first she'd get this big! Having that 600W all to herself just made her go crazy! The purple is starting to come through a lot more, and even getting some golden/orangish hues!
Things are really starting to look up for me! I got a new job that I GENUINELY love, I only work about 5 hours a day, and I'm making nearly double in that amount of time than I did working 10 hours a day at the dispensary.
Now I have all the time in the world to take care of my grow. And I just realized, a lot more money for improvements!!!!
Can't wait to see what the next 6 months bring!
Thank you all for the support, it's made this all the worthwhile for me. Dont think I'll ever stop growing again!

Definitely do not stop - it would be a shame. Look at her - stacked like a Brazilian beach babe!

so I guess tonights the last night of nutrients. Gonna start to flush her tomorrow for a week, then on to harvest! I'm excited, and a little nervous. Dont really have a good space to hang her right now. Was going to do it in my bathroom, but I need to go in there. From what I've read you want to hang them in complete darkness for usually around 7 days before you get to the bagging/jarring step.
Thinking about buying a small tent thing that I could use for harvesting/small veg room. Don't really want to spend like 150 on the one at the hydro shop though. Trying to think about some kind of box or something I could make to hang them in. Maybe I'll drape some black plastic and make a small space for them. Yeah, that sounds good. Cheap, but shouldnt hurt the flavor of the smoke (god, i hope not anyway...)

Getting quite a bit of purple now. Camera sucks and hps light messes with it, but you can still see it sort of. Feels like a shame to start flushing now, bye-bye to all those pretty colors, but that's ok

Fun challenge

 

[Elements001]

Alright, here we go, the final stretch! Just started to flush her. Gave her 10mL of General Hydroponics FloraKleen. In my little chart is says to give it the Florakleen with every watering, but I was wondering if that was necessary. I figured I'd use it for the first 3 or 4 days, then after that drop it, and just give her distilled to clear up as much as I can.
I used distilled water for this watering, and after the 10mL Florakleen, it read 14ppm. Ph was at 4, so I put in a little ph Up. that brought it to 20ppm. Think the ph up was pointless, but did it anyway.I think I'm just gonna use the florakleen tomorrow. I don't think the 14ppm were really enough to bring the ph down that much. The distilled water was just too clean for pen i think.

What do you think she will yield? Ima just throw out a blind 4-6 zips

 

[Elements001]

That's exactly what I was thinking. I gave one of the colas a little pinch the other day, and holy shit is she dense! At least 4, I'll be happy with 4. Wouldnt be surprised with a little more though. 6 definitely isnt out of the ball park! The most I ever got before off one plant was like 1.5, this is awesome!!!!!!!!1

 

[Tonygreen]

Density helps. 2 zips of sour bubble looks like 1.

Flower Day 60

Flower Day 60

 

[Elements001]

So much purple now. Noticed she's throwing out some white pistils every now and then. Guess she could go for a little longer, and luckily the flush seems to be taking longer than I expected.
Giving her 1 gal distilled water with 10mL Florakleen at 20 ppms, and the run off has stuck to around 400ppm. Got more food built up in that coco mix than I thought.
The fan leaves are starting to yellow, but they have at least a week to go from what they look like now I believe. Still see a lot of lush green ones.

Well, I wasn't quite expecting this...

looking good E haven't checked in here in awhile seems like those ladies are treating you right any day now huuh?

 

[Elements001]

Thanks man! Yep, any day now. Flush is taking a little while longer, but thats cool. I'm gonna miss this girl. She's done such a great job. Can't wait to see what smoke is like. The Banner they had at the dispensary tested at 21%, and it was crap compared to this(was great smoke though, thats why I kep the seed and grew her ). Should be a good one

 

[tleaf jr.]

yea you do miss them when there chopped but here comes the fun part lol

Post Trim

These are still really early on in the drying, but good enough to vape out of my cheapy box vaporizer. These are two of the "crappy" fluff bits i pulled way way below the canopy. Triched out and really smooth. The most incredible taste of strawberries. This has a lot of the Strawberry diesel in it. Has a full on head high at first, then moves all throughout the body. This is just really nice. Not knock you on your ass, make you think youre tripping, but its just nice. ahhh, nice. Can't imagine how the smoke will be a in week or two

What a beauty! Bravo!
