garden update

flipped to 12/12 + turned the lights up to a full 150w on 10/23
everything seems to be growing a bit faster since the flip, itll probably be another week or two before they show sex

night terror doing weird stuff again, one of the growth shoots started growing with 3 nodes. this one is much faster than the rest of the girls

garden update

9 days after the flip and everything is coming up nicely, had a little mishap over the weekend. I was going to change the timer to a 11/13 light schedule while i was away for the weekend but turned them to 13/11 in accident. i flipped them back to 12/12 once i got back though!

currently im having to water once a day, not sure if ill set up the blumats on this run, maybe later on in the grow. I was planning on repotting the females to a 1L pot but i dont think i have space for them right now. After looking at some of droppedcats plants i think theyll flower out in these smaller pots just fine.

also did another round of defoliation, usually id wait til around day 14 of flower or wait for the stretch to end before i start the 2nd round of defoliation but this was done out of necessity. I may have let these veg a bit too long this time, we shall see in the future though!

before picking out males/defol

after

Indicas make dreams happen
You mean to tell me you're pulling these grows off in a 15 x 15 inch space? Absolutely amazing. I have a 16 x 16 x 42 inch tall cab I found in the trash. Just might have to try this out.

yo tomatoes you should def try out a microgrow! theyre super fun and allow you to a experiment and try new things. 16x16x42 is a bit small but youll have a good amount of height to work with, throw some sidelighting in there and youll have some good solid buds :biggrin:

Beautiful shots. It's crazy how the plants come back after defoliation, even with limited space!

It's awesome that you have 4 new strains to try out this round - hope you get a nice Kosher pheno w/ the 24k.

Great stuff bro!

Is the B-witched cakey/doughy at all? Supposedly there is a 'cupcake' pheno that pops up.

Wanted to pick up some NF not to long ago but some people had trouble with intersex so no go.

when ground up she has a bit of the cake smell but in the jar i get a more fruity smell, maybe some sort of fruitcake

ninjafruit is great, havnt seen many people with intersex, id still pick up a pack! she has great smell a nice heady high

You must have the, led's turned right down newstyle? Can't believe they not burning

some of the strains seem to handle the light better than others, alien rift, one of the shortest plants had a bit of light burn when i raised her pot up on the grodan cube. It seems if i slowly raise the power of the lights the plants adjust with them and seem to flourish.


currently im running the cobs at around 150w at ~1.4ma, they were slowly ramped up to 150w from 100w since the start of flower.


i can def see some signs of light stress on the nightterror og, might have to do some super cropping or something soon or its really going to get bleached. shes about 2-3" from the cobs right now. i have the two tallest girls (nighterror/double black) at the front of the box where the cob lighting isnt as strong since they are mounted a little towards the back in the box.

purple drank breath - i think this pic shows how small she is, i may have trimmed her a bit too much before flowering but it didnt seem like this one stretched up at all. she also looks quite a bit further along than any of the others, loving the velvet purple stem on her

garlicbreath - loving this one, just covered in frost and has this stank that just stands out from the rest

pugsbreath - still weird, starting to see some trichomes on her now, straight cookie smell on stem rub
