Still alive. I may have cooked off some of the terps by letting the tent temp get to 80. It is what it is. The leaves on the flowers are taking a yellowish tint. I wonder if that is from mr removing the overcharged water.

They look pretty awesome to me
Yes indeed. Full even canopy and very healthy looking.They look pretty awesome to me
I figure one week+ remains. I dropped the light from 11.5 to 11 today.
What has worked very well is the forced filtered air. Just a cardboard box taped up to seal it, with a hole cut for taping a HEPA filter (3M 1900) and a fan inside to pull air through the filter and blow it into the tent.
I bought a couple AC infinityoscillating fans for the sativa tent. They came with a fancy book they made about growing “hemp” in their branded tent and fans. Nothing about the critical inlet filtration, and the fools could sell a filter box with their fan in it. I guess I will keep using the box I sealed up with tape, stuck a fan and hose in, and a 3M 1900 filter taped on. This works well. Balance the speeds between the inlet and exhaust fan (don’t use the controller) to get the tent temp, flow, and pressure right. I run a little positive pressure.
This helps keep the dope clean. I have not had SM or PM this run with the filters. No spraying.

So this box is your only intake fan? That’s a crazy smart hack. TY and looking forward to seeing your harvest.
Should I top water in more feed, or just let them finish?
I figure about a week to go. Here is P3s main cola:
Edit: the camera - and this is just a mini iPad- sees close better than I do. Some cool colors deep in the flowers.
Should I get greedy and feed again?
Edit again… I did feed them. Last time, i swear.

That ones not done. I would feed er again for sure. Mine were mostly bright orange hairs and full calyx's by now but I was dripping 1.8-2ec and feeding a P/K bloom booster. Coco and mostly salts vs yours in soil. The punch I had grew that type of pointy tops where as the metals/grapefruit were flat and round tops.
I'd feed them again but I'd be top feeding plain water in between feedings. In soil its feed 1 to 2 times a week and plain water the rest. Def no more N as the tips are burning. I'd feed but keep it mild. The important thing is to keep them healthy. They do look a bit too green so I think your soil mix has too much Nitrogen in it. This could be one of the reasons you keep saying you don't usually get good smells. Its good to try new things especially when you are starting out.
Other than the little bit of extra green and a bit later finish they look great to me! One more feed might even be what they need to give them that last little push to the end. But be patient you don't want to get so close to the end and pull them early and loose the yeild and maybe some terpage you know.
Happy Holidays

ps I'd also check your water source if you havent already. In a new room it the first thing to do always.

yeah , i remember the plant and, your plant-your choice but thought you were crazy to give it away... though you have your wires crossed about the story. I would never tell someone that they couldn't grow.. even if it was true.
OPG testers were not my line, they were Paniks from RG iirc - so you ditched my plant because another breeder had hurt your feelings !
VG.
No, I didn’t have room. Don’t make me dig another bean out and grow it again! Cause I am thinking about the next lineup. I want
WLD, Wide Leaf Dope.
WLD, Wide Leaf Dope.
here they are again:
I started at the front left and went clockwise...
and not sure which this one is.

Getting closer to taking the tops. The light is 10.5 on, power is reduced too. I have been changing out the wick bed water for fresh, to reduce the residual nutes.
Gonna be some dope come out of this run.

Happy New Years its going to be a sticky week from the looks of it! Are the Punch on the back or right side of the pic? Looking great you can see the buds are lightening up in color.
Happy 2023 back at ya brother LT. I think they are all punchy, cause the smells are the same. That different plant at the right rear with the canoe leaves is the only difference that I can tell. The label show the back plants being punch, front ones metal. The left rear may be a metal, as it is labeled with a ? Due to confusion when I planted the tailed seeds.
I am wetting the next seeds that will go in there today.

Let me know which are which when you chop so I have a good idea if you have them marked. I think you said in a previous post I will check tonight can't remember. The front two look bulkier. All 4 look like the punch like top with the points where as my grapefruit and metal were rounded tops.
The one you posted with the spears pointing out all over the top and less resin in the pic looks like the Punch mom.

thoroughly enjoying the grow....nice work!
If you didnt move them the P5 and P3 are in the back and the Metal are in the front.
But P5 is labeled “M?P5”, cause I kinda lost track by the end of cupping them. I will segregate the buds, easy since this is a pretty small pull. The lowers will be given more time, and any seeds will determine that. I might even put a towel under the hanging buds so dropped seeds can be identified.
I really appreciate the opportunity to grow these out Lost Tribe. I made fewer mistakes this run, and so far had no PM/SM issues. I’ll get to the others as time and opportunity allows.
We’ll see what the root autopsy shows regarding the smallish size.
