#1- very sativa expression, completely diff look than the sisters. 3x stretch, great side branching, even growth, sort of a musk and a cedar nose on top of a bit of dark fruit. i have a feeling i will really like the smoke on this one. lining up to be around 12 weeks. should yield well.
#2 - looks "kushy" to me. huge trich heads, big calyxes growing in like braided spears. stretched almost 3x but still has a WLD look to it. the leaflets are almost teardrop shaped, overlapping eachother at the widest parts but with space between them at the nexus. crazy kerosene stink. bag appeal will be off the charts.
#3 - "candy" pheno. the most intense undeniably blueberry smell, SWEET, like blueberry ice cream maybe. almost 3x stretch. nice spear buds. great branching with good buds all over. calyxes and trichs are smaller than #2 so poss less bag appeal, but i'm confident smell and flavor will be unrivaled, except poss by...
#4 - "floral" i've been calling it. as loud in blueberry as number three but less sweet, leaning more to a floral expression. it makes me think of like those hippy gums you buy at stores like whole foods. if you bought a bougie blueberry gum product at whole foods that's what this smells like. much shorter structure. only stretched like 1.5x
#5 - shortest, lowest yeilding, least fragrance, least appealing of the bunch. still frosty fire! chopped her early as HB needed some smoke. tester nugs dried real quick have impressive flavor. only gets me more excited about the rest of the sisters!
#6 - came out of nowhere looks a lot like that sour bubble, i'm thinking maybe the SB in the digiberry is making an appearance. good timing since the SB was lost! huge girthy buds on a compact frame (1.5x stretch). ridiculously frosty. almost crunches when you touch it. lighter coloration on the buds than the other plants. fast and heavy. nose is mostly hash, with a bit of dark fruit and a hint of sweetness.
#7 - fastest finisher. 1.5x stretch. same giant trichs and calyxes as the #2, but totally diff bud structure. more crowned. reminds me of the tops of pre-98 bubba but the rest of the bud is longer and skinnier than bub's fat golfballs. also hashy on the nose but it's gonna rival #2 on bag appeal and it finishes 2 weeks earlier. decent yield but nothng wild.
#8 - the runt. this came from the same seed as #7 but i never seperated them, so she was out-competed. i think it deserves at least another run because any evaluation from this round won't really be fair.
man that's one heck of lot of charcoal for 2 yards.... 4 x 17 =68lb + 25lb of biochar. seems like allotta amendments for only 3 bales of peat with all those full sacks going in heady
How you liking those 10 gal smarties? I'm thinking bout making the switch to all smartpots for my indoor, already use em outside.
Great looking ladies in there, cant wait till you get some more pics and get that thing running full steam, harvests every month then (half flower room)?
any link to the room design you based this off of? whats the benefitS?
Thanks and best of luck! I'll be watching!
following this one close.i have the same height,and was thinking of switching from 1k hps to these same lights.i hope you kill it,good vibes.
peace-T-
welcome SH! this certainly is a bit roomier than the old closets!
I think having to start at a micro scale was a good learning experience for me. my partner is an old friend with a background in biology and plant science, but this will be his first canna grow. im like, "pretty nice first grow, buddy!" I like to spoil my friends anyway. after a year 's worth of crop cycles hopefully he'll be feeling confident in taking over the whole space.
I'm always gonna love a good closet grow tho! here are some shots from the old bare bulb closet for posterity.
