Walty There’s an entire tutorial on curing at growweedeasy.com. Just keep burping the jar every day until the relative humidity drops down to around 62 percent. You can use Boveda or Integra humidipacks too if you choose.

Walty How many mason jars did you get? I fit about an ounce per quart jar.

Jv15 Right now it’s about down to 60 percent. Just trying to get rid of the hay smell

Walty Congrats on reaching harvest!! A lot of first grows never make it that far.

Jv15 Thanks man! Let me ask you how does the bud look? Mids? Or will I not Know until it drys ?

Walty I think it looks great for your first grow!! You should be proud to share that with some friends.

Walty Good luck! Hope you get your 2 ounces

Jv15 Thanks for your advice along the way. Do I trim before hanging ? Or after drying ?

Walty You can trim wet or dry. I usually like to remove the fan leaves when they are wet and trim the sugar leaves when they are dry. This time I plan to do everything wet. Definitely read up on this at growweedeasy.com. A good cure takes time and they must dry slowly.

leland3471 I was actually just reading not to trim during flower for that purpose. During veg all is good. I’ve been using the LST technique to spread the light love.

Jv15 I actually have done it 2 times before this and it responded very well. I’m surprised. I’m flushing now and going to harvest in a week or so !

Walty How are your buds coming JV? Close to harvest?

Walty How long has it been since you flipped to flower? You want those pistils to brown and curl in first....then you start watching the trichomes for harvest day.

Jv15 Man I flipped them about a month ago. Still white white and straight hairs. Some have orange hairs though

Walty Whatever the breeder says for flowering time, I usually tack on 3 weeks. I count from the flip to 12/12. So if you have a relatively fast strain at 8 weeks, assume you’ll need 10-11 weeks.

Walty 👍👍. Great to see that it’s working out! They were some lanky gals.

Jv15 Hell yea they were

leland3471 Damn. They look great.

Walty That’s what I’d have done. Once they get that tall, you don’t have many options. Good luck!

leland3471 Now that I can see them in the light they are lookin pretty good man. I would start trimming some of those leaves lower down near the pots.

Jv15 Yea gave them a nice trim and rotated them. Smells pretty decent. Hoping for a good budding on them

leland3471 Ya. Soon as I flipped to flower my plants started drinking a ton more water.

Jv15 Yea that’s what I’m thinking is happening. I’m assuming 2 more weeks max it will start budding

Walty I’ve never used a machete before, but you might need one for harvest! 👍. She really got big! I’m hoping you salvage some smoke from her.

Jv15 You think it’s getting too late to get thick buds? I have a feeling I might be getting a popcorn bud plant

leland3471 Have you trimmed off all the lower fan leaves that aren’t getting light? Lollipop’d? That should force the plants to put more energy into the flowers.

Walty Do you know the wattage of that grow light? Not the claimed number, but the true wattage from the wall. That’s going to be your challenge during flowering when the plants want a LOT of light.

Walty Pretty crazy growth, huh? Topping your plants will help to keep them shorter, plus a stronger lamp.

leland3471 Hopefully you get some nice buds out of it.

Walty Don’t let it get you down. Just supercrop and make the best of it. Go back and read on growweedeasy.com to figure out how to improve. You may be able to salvage some.

Jv15 Yea man. I’ll look into that website. Just hope I bud soon and stop growing. Super cropped two

leland3471 Wow. That’s a jungle in there.

Walty Look up super cropping

Tyson What nutrients do you use to keep it organic ?

Jv15 Went with some stuff from fox farm. Stopped using others because they weren’t organic. Happy frog nutes too are good and I used them. And organic 100%soil

Walty You should see little “budlets” after 2-3 weeks of 12/12. Anything going on when you look up close?

Jv15 White hairs. That’s it

Walty It will be more obvious in a few days. By week 3, you should have little “budlets ” all over the place

Walty That will make some room. Glad you caught that male in your first photo too.

Walty When are you flipping to 12/12 lighting for flowering?

Jv15 I did flip them maybe 2 weeks ago. No signs of flowering yet. Strange. I brought this up to someone else too

Walty If they weren’t “mature” yet, it can take longer than 2 weeks. You can tell if they are mature based on whether the new branches are directly opposed to each other (immature) or alternating (mature). Hang in there. You have a jungle.

leland3471 Lookin really good man.

Leland3471 Lookin good. Might get a little crowded in there.

Walty You’re running male and female seeds, right?

Jv15 Just females I’m pretty sure. I’ve been checking them and no sign of males

Jv15 Not sure how far I can push this tiny ass grow room

Leland3471 Yup. Gettin crowded in there. Just gonna have to get a bigger tent!!!

Jv15 Yea I wasn’t planning on it. These things are growing crazy. I wonder how many I can get to 2-3 feet in here. I’m thinking two

Leland3471 They’re lookin really good!!

Jv15 Thanks friend. Going to have to relocate the stragglers eventually. It’s tight in there. Prob will keep two strongest in there for cloning and such. The others will be introduced to the outdoor greenhouse

Leland3471 Good luck with that.

Leland3471 Lookin good.

Leland3471 Those are looking good. Wish I could smell them!!!

Leland3471 I was having the same feeling about slow growth on mine. They still look healthy though.

Jv15 I think we are just getting to excited and anxious haha

Walty Looking good! You might have more plants than you need. It’s definitely going to get tight in there. Best of luck with your grow!

Jv15 Thanks man! I’m hoping most are female but I’ll Be happy with one or 2. I didn’t even have to add any of the extra stuff. Literally perfect air current/temp/humidity

Walty Gotcha! I’m so used to growing feminized that I forget about the regular seeds. Good luck....hope you have a few good ladies there! 👍

pcarver Looks very wet there. What’s your set up? I can help a little.

Jv15 So basically I might have overwatered. I’m going to let it sit for a bit and completely dry. This is a makeshift seedling setup with a fluorescent light. Have a 2x2x4 grow room on the way with a 600 bloomspect light. Have the typical fan and humidity set up as well. I’m using the fox farm trio only for my nutrients.

pcarver Try coco coir mix with perlite. You will be able to water and feed everyday without overwatering. Lots of fan movement. Keep humidity around 50%.

Walty Hi JV.....off to a good start. You asked for feedback, so here is what I see. As you up-pot, you may want to add more perlite to your soil mix to get better draining soil. I like at least 20-30 percent perlite in my 5 gallon pots. Also, what’s the plan for the two seedlings in one cup?

Jv15 Thanks for the follow and help ! Basically haven’t transplanted into another container simply. Probably will tomorrow. Didn’t expect all seedlings go sprout so god damn strong

Walty I would normally wait until the leaves are hanging over the side of the cup before up potting, so there’s no rush. You have time. Just for my reference, What’s your setup? Lights? Tent size? How many plants are you hoping to grow? Nutrients that you plan to use (don’t do it yet).
