Hi all,
time for the next update!
We're at day 80 from seed and day 43 of flower.
There has been quite some swelling going on, we're getting there!
I'm going to have to support the bigger buds real soon to prevent them from breaking off the branches.

Here's the whole tent with the 3 CBDSHs in the middle, the toweedoes on the right and the two jackflash clones on the left:



the CBDSHs stretched a little more then the jackflashs. The 250w hps is allright for this run, but I'm thinking I might upgrade to a 400w system next time.
also I will not let any plants in this tent veg as long as I did this time ( almost 40 days).
I'll keep em short and bushy next time.

here's one from a shorter distance:



I had the blumats flood my catch trays accidentally. After beeing away for a couple days the rez ran empty and the pots incl. the blumats dried out pretty much. plants were all droopy and didn't look good as the pots I use are so small, they require regular feedings through the blumats and don't hold much moisture. the blumats opened up fully, dried out and then I refilled the rez. Of course the water went right through like a flashflood... stupid stupid stupid, my own fault.
Now temps and rh are exactly back at rh20% and day 22C/ night 15C.
The images were taken after the plants recovered from the accidental drought and after the flashflood.

Expecting a good 4 weeks left to go for the ladies if all goes well.

I have to say the have a really nice smell to them ( with a hint of vanilla??). Much better than at the start: When I did the first defo the sap on my hands smelled like horribly bad breath, ugh.

Allright everyone, take care, stay safe and see you in a bit

Hey great thread here Chevy, love the pics. I'm actually waiting on a pack of 5 fem CBD SH seeds to get here and then I'm gonna be starting my own CBD jungle. Interested in seeing how this strain does outdoors vs. indoors, hopefully I can grow some monsters and get half a lb per plant. I'l keep my fingers crossed hehe.

good day cbd aficionados,
Next update!
Day 87 from seed/day 50 of flower.
I defoliated them quite a bit a couple days ago to get more light to the lower bud sites.
It was a jungle in there.

Here are the CBDSH ladies:



on the bottom, next to the blumat dripper lines adn the thermo/hygrometer you can see green cables... they are heat cables I put in the cab in order to be able to switch off the room's heating. No need to heat the whole room when I only need warmth in the tent.
They draw 40w and sem to hold the temp during lights out pretty good.

And here are the JF clones/ flower day 50:



Both the CBDSH girls and the Jackflashes have some problems with light and/ or heat stress. Only the ones just outside/ between the spreader and the outside of the AAW are affected though. They seem burnt, so I took the spreader out. all lower shoots and the ones directly under the spreader are ok.

that's it for today,
saty safe& take care everyone

Hey soil margin,
thanks for stopping by.
that's exactly what I got too. Popped just three of them- 100%germination hahaha.

Next time I will top them directly after they get to their 3rd or 4th node.
After that, a week for recovery and then straight into 12/12.
I have neough side shoots& branches but they stretched crazy under the 250w hps.

I'd love to grwo em really big too, but even if I did a run with just one plant it would get too big for my setup. Thinking more but smaller plants from clones for next time.

I'm sure you can get you 1/2 pound from one big plant though. Probably more if all is dialled in. The calyxes are swelling up crazy right now! Update in the pipeline!

Yeah Kiloz,
It's def. my favourite hang out spot now !
The tomatoes are still green, but they're putting on weight every day and soon they will be red and juicy !
I hope they will be tasty too... we'll see ;-)

Hi everyone,
Welcome to the next update on my CBD gals and their neighbours.
We're nearing the end of week 8 of flowering and they're getting ready.
CBD crew says it's a 10 week strain, but I have started monitoring trichs now.

Here's a shot of the whole tent:



The stems of the two largest colas broke/ bend, but luckily without cracking the outer hull of the stem, so they're still intact aside from the funny angle they are bend now.

Here's a shot of one:



It does look a bit weird, but trust me, they're ok and now at least a bit further away from the heat of the bulb.
Here's a closeup of one of the larger colas:



Is it just me or do the pics of our plants always look somehow smaller and less impressive than the real thing ?
Man, Some of the colas I've seen here on IC must therefore be gigantically awesome in reality ...

Here are the jackflashes and one of the broken CBDSHs is photobombing hahaha



As you can see I put a trellis in the whole tent. While it came too late for the 2 CBDSH colas it is definitely helping the rest of the colas remain in upright positions and prepare for touchdwon.

And here's a shot of the small more sativa like JF that took forever to root and was therefore way behind in veg.
She's a grown girl now:


They do look like they're going to be ready soon.
Starting week 9 they will only get water for the remaining time til harvest.
The heat cables have held the remp pretty constant at 23°C/73f day and 18°C/64f night.


Already at this point I have to say next time I'm going to have much less veg time.
top at 3rd or fourth node, let them recover and then straight into 12/12.
I've been wasting a lot of vertical space by letting veg too long and also a lot of horizontal space by not having more, smaller plants in there.
Well the bonsai moms are doing fine, so no prob for next time.
I kept a bonsai mom of every plant In here, so after determining my favourites after harvest, I can decide which too keep and get going without much delay.

Well, that's it for today,
take care & stay safe

Last but not least,
here's one last pic for those who have been following closely.

The toweedoes:



They're getting bigger everyday while producing new flowers all the time.
I pollinate them with a painting brush.
