lemon kush

[Nade420xOG]

my first indoor grow. 162 w total. Main overhead lights are t5ho. These pics the plant will be 57 days since I flipped them. The seed website says 60 days Flower time.

last time I fed them was last watering 2 nights ago at 947ppm using Nutrifield nutes. Probably could have fed today one last time. But I just did a molasses and water. was thinking of letting it go until 70 day mark to call it done and cut . How's it look ?

Looking good. what setup?
I thinking of lemon kush for my next round. I've read somewhere that 1 in 20 fem lemon kush seeds show male flowers, have you had any issues?
plus any other info/tips for this strain would be appreciated.

My setup is cfls 4 spirals and two t5ho and one T8 = 162w total . I have a 3:1 ratio of 6500k/3100-2700k since seed . As far as males, had 4 females out of 5 one died. But this is an old seed. I got from a stock like 2 yrs ago so I wouldn't get the new sale seeds.

A as far as feeding looks like she likes to be fed constantly never burned her and she never showed signs of stress.

Good to know nade, there looking so close to completion. What colour are the trichs?.
I used to use cfls but moved on to a hps. Much denser nugs. I do use a 125w cfl for veg tho

Edit :: originally I was going to use a cabinet 30" tall x 23"w x 11" deep . But I didnt have any tools to cut out certain holes and spots in the cab. So what I have is a about the same dimensions in my closet. I used some paneling painted flat white to make the walls. pretty ghetto but classy ghetto.

 

[Nade420xOG]

Trichs are cloudy overall. I'm going till day 70 at the most. maybe a couple more water flushes and be done. 40% Brown hairs now so I'd say my window to harvest is open.

 

[cflauto]

Sounds good. I'm using a wardrobe. 22" x 22" and about 50" tall. Reflective sheeting. With a 150w hps.

 

[cflauto]

I always say to myself 'I'll wait untill the trichs are 20%ish brown' but end up not helping myself and harvesting when 5%.
I'm waiting on a top44 to finish off. Just started final flush yesterday.
I'm thinking about a sog with the lemon kush. I could fit 9 small plants in 19cm square pots. Just over 1gallon. how big do they gey? How long did you veg?

looking good in here NADE got any clones for the next round ?

 

[Nade420xOG]

Cfl height wise it's about 1.5 ft give or take in a one gallon. last time I used 3 gallon pot and they reached about 3 or so feet.. so basically directly proportional.

tleaf Naw man I didn't. I wasn't prepared with my layout. After this round I have to do some rearranging. Since I have an outdoor garden going I wasn't bothered by it. But I think indoor is the way I'm gonna do the majority. Next round fo sho

 

[cflauto]

Great useful info. I think 1.5ft would be ideal. let us know how much they yeild.

[Nade420xOG]

I'll keep you guys posted.

 

[conch]

howd she finish!?

 

[cflauto]

?

 

[Nade420xOG]

She finished nice about a zip wet. But I lost most of it due to stupidity. I got mold during the cure. I was pissed , still am. Now I'm starting over. Yield was pretty nice for a one gallon 1.5+ feet in height. But again that was wet ...

 

[tleaf jr.]

make sure they are dry before the cure , looks pretty good though... I believe that you can make concentrated outta the molded bud if im not mistaken

 

[Nade420xOG]

Ya, I've never made concentrates but you are right. I can use it for that. I think I didn't burp the jar enough (and I probably over packed it) The picture is actually from another jar that was my personal car stash. So I think with the extended opening of the jar and hear it didnt mold. When I put it in the bids had 4 days on racks and were dry to the touch. But the rehydrated lots .

First time I used molasses thru out and I will say the taste is excellent. the buzz also . Not bad for cfl. I'm going to up the bulbs

 

[tleaf jr.]

yea molasses and budswell ftw try not to pack the buds in the jars I like leave 1/4 of the jar empty and tip it on it's side to kinda even out the drying and keep the bottom buds from molding . do you procure in a paper bag?

 

[Nade420xOG]

No no precure. I did rearrange the buds in the jar however.
But I have the Ed Rosenthal book and another tutorial. I'm sure I filled the jar to much and didn't burp long enough and enough days since it was so full. SMDH
