Day: 130

6 days of drying so far. Trimmed all the buds last night. Buds are about 90% dry and got a weigh in of 270.8 grams , should be about 220 grams once fully dry I would guess

Today was harvest day! Great little harvest for my first grow. Got them drying for a few days then I will trim and throw them on the drying net. Learned a lot this grow and can’t wait to put the knowledge into the next grow. Thanks everyone for comments and advice through out. You guys are champs. Wish I could smoke some of this with all you guys. Once it’s dried I’ll post harvest weight. Cheers 🍻

Day 67 of flower. Purple Kush is ready and the green crack is a day or two away. Looking about 20-30 percent amber tris and 70 percent cloudy on the kush. Gave the plants their last flush watering. Going to start their darkness period Tuesday morning when the lights kick off and I will harvest Wednesday night . Thinking about wet trimming and putting buds on drying net, I usually do a light trim and hang branches to dry then trim buds but think I’m going to try something new. Has anyone ever wet trim or used hanging drying nets ?

JAYLITT215 Good lookin’ plants. Next time put more plants in there or veg longer and spread ur plants out (LST). That empty space around ur plants is missed weight. Lost watts is lost potential grams of bud. U did phenomenal for a first time grower.

Kballum Thanks man appreciate it. Unfortunately I’m only allowed to grow 4 plants at a time in Canada “legally” next grow I might try to sneak one or two extra in their. Thanks for the advice :)

Day: 115

Day 50 of flower , did a trim of all the yellow leaves on the one plant and flushed all the plants today.

6 years ago

MrGreen99 Wow they look great. My plant died working on another one now with clay.

Electrcx 👍🏻 looking good.

Day: 114

Need help! Any clue what this could be . I have 2 plants of this strain and one is fine this one the leaves are yellowing from the centre out and have brown spots appearing over the past few days. Any ideas/ suggestions ? 2 weeks from harvest

6 years ago

ClandestineWestOz What are they being fed In what quantity? Possibly too much P? Lower your dose this last week before the flush.

Kballum I’m doing the advanced nutrients 3 part Flower - 0.5ml per litre Micro- 1ml per litre Bloom- 2ml per litre

Electrcx Possibly magnesium/potassium deficiency or PH really high in that pot. Maybe hit them with some mag/cal or give a good flush??

Kballum Running 432 actual wattage. it’s a 700 watt and a 300 watt mars hydro. General rule of thumb is 50 actual wattage per plant minimum

Back from the weekend getaway. Got engaged this weekend !!! Back to the plants. Came home to a big shock of the plants beyond wilted. I didn’t give them enough water apparently . I gave them a good watering and they bounced back a hour later. Last pic will be of the plants when I came home last night. Gave them a big trim up today after they rebounded.

Scuba What’s with the net why is everyone using them

Kballum Scrog net it’s suppose to stunt the growth a little bit and help separate main stems. Also helps with a bit of support as the branches grow tall

ClandestineWestOz Sweet bro, wishing you some lovely fat nuggets to come!

Day: 63

Wish I could keep these in veg longer but due to a vacation at the end of March I need to put them in veg on Saturday. Been loving how much they have taken off the past week.

ClandestineWestOz Where you going on vacation? Australia to come smoke up with your bro ClandestineWestOz of course!

ClandestineWestOz They’re looking fine!

Day: 58

Plants are exploding after realizing I should have had full spectrum on the whole time, also adding the c02 bag was a great call plants are loving it , such a difference the past few days

6 years ago

Day: 57

Added exhale c02 bag plants are like the new adjustment with having both veg and bloom lights on

6 years ago

Day: 56

Big clean up on the plants today , trimmed up all the bottom junk. Moved my fan closer and added magnesium and calcium to the water to help them out. Also found out I should have had my veg and bloom light settings on the whole time and I only had veg. What do you guys think about having both lights on the whole time?

6 years ago

ClandestineWestOz My led has 3 switches, whites for germinating and clones then add veg light (blue spectrums) then flick the 3rd (reds) for flowering. I’d say use as advised as those switches are there for a reason. A seedling or vegging plant won’t use any red spectrum fir example so the light it’s producing would be wasted energy.

Kballum Thanks man I’ll use that advise

Day: 55

Got the humidity issue figured out. Got a little high so I’ve balanced it out with my fan speeds. It’s down to 45-60 👌

6 years ago

Day: 54

Raised 2 of my plants up to even out the canopy. Also turned down my outtake fan to increase the humidity. My humidity was dropping into the 30’s . Got it back up to 50-65% 11 more days then they switch to flower.

6 years ago

ClandestineWestOz Looking sooo good dude! Keep it up 👍

Day: 53

6 years ago

ClandestineWestOz Looks good bro 👍

Day: 52

Switched the plants to spring water, worried my water might be a little to harsh for them. Day 60 I’m going to slowly transition my lights into flower. Probably take off a hour each night until 12/12 . Unless you guys think I should just switch them at day 65 from 18/6 to 12/12 overnight . Also do you guys recommend I trim all the undergrowth at this stage or leave it a bit longer?

6 years ago

ClandestineWestOz I’d lean more towards training them with that scrog net to spread your laterals out at this stage. Try raising the shorter plants with books or bricks if they are mesh pots to level the canopy and keep adjusting as it grows taller.

Day: 51

2 more weeks of veg left then switching to flower.

Day: 48

2 of my plants have some concerning brown spots on some of the lower leaves . Any ideas /suggestions? I’m thinking either calcium deficiency or nutrient shock. I gave the plants a good flush.

6 years ago

ClandestineWestOz Ph problems manifest as nutrient deficiency type leaf symptoms. Other than that leaf is it anywhere else? I’ve had similar from a small splash of nutrient when hand watering.

Kballum There were about 3-5 leaves on each plants that showed some sign of browning . I gave the plants a good flushing and holding off on nutrients for a few days

Mmantoo1 It looks as if maybe you had a few drops of nutrients splashed up or dropped on the leaf and put round brown spots on it really looks like drop spots. I had done that a few grows back.

6 years ago

ClandestineWestOz Lower your co2 bottle bro, your exhaust will suck it straight out before your plants breathe that stuff in. I’ve seen those bottles literally wedged inside plants stems.

ClandestineWestOz Maybe just place it between the 4 plants 👍

ClandestineWestOz People who hang it high normally have recycled exhaust systems so they vent from a closed room/space.
