And it’s a wrap chopped,dried,and trimmed, and curing in jars the trimming was hell over 15 hours to trim these I wanted to shoot myself lol but the end product smells and looks amazing! How long do most of you guys cure your haul? and how much better does it all get if you cure it awhile and what changes after you cure it? Just wondering I usually only cure for a week or 2 but I think this time I’m going to cure a lot longer cause I heard it makes it better but I don’t notice what’s better from my experiences from me smoking it after a week of curing or 2 weeks of curing can someone please help me understand why they say it makes the stuff better the longer you cure thanks

Hey guys need some help please! All my plants are doing great awesome but the Purple Punch (Photo) has been doing this lately the leaves are turning yellow more and more it started with a couple and now it’s all the fan leaves I know for a fact I’m not over watering them 100% I feel if anything I’m under watering them cause I wait for the fan leaves to start getting a little droopy before watering them I have read it can be from under watering them or a nitrogen deficiency or that it’s hungry and wants more feed the problem is I use gaia green and it’s a slow release fertilizer and I just feed them again like 2 weeks ago and if I feed them more it still has to break down and that can take weeks so I’m going crazy over here cause it’s doing great other then that the buds don’t seem effected at all and they are still growing I just bought some stump tea hoping that it will give it what it needs I just watered them so I figured I’ll start brewing the stump tea today and water them with it tomorrow and instead of watering every 3 days I’ll start watering every 2 days if someone can help I would greatly appreciate it! And if anyone used stump tea will that have enough nutrients if that’s the problem I plan to also add earthworm castings to the tea also with the stump tea powder let me know if I am taking the proper steps and if I need to do something other then I’m doing please lmk thanks

Girls looking great just cruising along! They all stretched out pretty nice the past week or 2 and the Northern Lights in the back right of the tent is slowly packing some weight on. 4-5 weeks and these girls will be done it’s been a long haul but almost at the finish line can’t wait! If anybody has any advice on something to do in the final weeks of flower to make the Photos finish a bit stronger please Let me know! Cause for the most part I don’t think I can do anything else you help them bulk up but I could be wrong! Would love to hear any tips anyone has thanks!!!

So they are moving along pretty nice!! Top dressed the girls with 5 Tbsps of Gaia Green 2-8-4, 3 Tbsps of Gaia Green 4-4-4 , 5 Tbsps of Gaia Green Basalt Rock Dust, and 8 Tbsps of Organic worm castings 1.25-0-0 they are now half way through flower they are almost done! Don’t judge my fan that I rigged to my tent lol it works great and gives them awesome air flow plus the fan was just sitting around so why not right? I will keep posting until the end if you have any recommendations or questions feel free to comment thanks

Omg amazing!!!! These are starting to frost over a lot. So frosted the buds look white it’s crazy! They are buds are really starting to develop nice and the northern lights plant in the back right corner is starting to get orange hairs and the purple punch in the corner left is crazy frosted the 2 strawberry cough plants that are the front 2 are looking great also just a little behind the back 2 plants I can not wait in another 2 weeks or so they will really start packing some serious weight I can’t wait!!!!!

Did some light defoliation and cut out the yellowing stuff at the lower levels due to no light exposure. So now the only stuff on the plants are sites that are getting plenty of light and lower sites that are now receiving light. Now they can focus all the energy on the prime bud sights throughout the all of the plants

The girls are starting to flower nice after the 12/12 flip I can’t wait to see how these girls end up this is my first photo run and it’s going great!

So the time is finely here I flipped these girls 3 days ago! But before I flipped them I defoliated and lollipoped them about a week and a half before the flip just to give them time to recover from the stress( which there wasn’t any) lol but I rather be safe then be sorry ! And also I feed them that same day 10 Tbsp of Giai Green 2-8-4 Power Bloom with 3 Tbsp of Giai Green 4-4-4 All Purpose and also 8 Tbsp of 1.5-0-0 Organic Earthworm Castings and watered them with 6.4ph’d water that I had in buckets bubbling for 3 days so it can remove the chlorine. And I must say these girls look great! Growing perfect with no deficiencies nice dark green leaves! I must say I couldn’t be happier with the out come so far I’m just wondering what my haul is goin to look like!! I’m getting excited and impatient myself Plus jcan’t wait

Ok need some input and some advice so I lollipopped and defoliated these girls like a week and a half ago I top dressed them an gave them a big feeding of 5 Tbsps of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 5 Tbsps of Gaia Green Power Bloom 2-8-4 and 8 Tbsps of Organic Earth worm castings 1.5-0-0 they responded great no visible shock from removing so much leaves and growth it actually appears that it was exactly what they needed cause they grew back faster and bushier and they are looking great.So I would like as many of you guys to comment and give me some advice on my next steps cause this is my first photoperiod grow and I’m learning as I go so with that being said I would like to know it the lollipop job I did looks right or should I remove more and work my way up a little higher on each branch?Also should my next step be to defoliate again and put up my net? Then my final question is am I leaving these in veg too long? Should I flip them into flower after I defoliate and put my net up and give them 2-3 days to recover from the defoliation then switch to 12-12? I would love to hear from as many of you guys and I would greatly appreciate it thanks in advance!

So these things are getting so darn big and bushy lol they are thriving no deficiencies all deep dark green and growing great.As it says in the bio of this grow this is my first photo grow and my 3rd grow all together so I need some help from you guys on a couple of questions and concerns I have ok the first is question I have is what is the process in lollipoping these plants what do you take off and how much of the leaves on each branch But I also heard you cant remove to many leaves cause it will cause high stress but then how do people remove so much of the leaves when they lollipop there plants so can someone put together a plan or a way they would do my plants by looking at the pictures I posted and secondly by looking at my setup when would you guys put these plants into flower I have one plant in a 2x2x4 at the moment but I’m in the process for buying a 4x4 or a 5x5 to grow my photos in and then use my 5x3 for autos but the tent will still be 80inches the same as the tent that they are in now so when would you guys switch them cause I heard they can double or triple in height so I’m getting nerves cause I don’t know what to expect so please let me know guys cause these are the 2 issues I’m worried about cause everything else is going crazy great I love this organic growing style and Gaia Green is awesome and works great i will never not use it just add to it but I thank you guys in advance and I Appreciate your guys comments and input happy growing my green thumb gang #GTG lol that’s my new hashtag lol hahah

Ok lady’s and gentlemen it’s official I had to finally give in and move one of the girls into my 2x2 tent I been fighting it but it came to the point where these girls are getting way to big to keep 4 in my 5x3 tent so I had to put the 2x2 into good use lol So that’s that but as for the girls they are doing great and responding well to the LST my fiancé does every 3 days or so she is really good at the LST process and gets the most out of them and she’s way better then me at it lol and they also got a slight defoliation to expose potential bud sites this will be the last LST and defoliation trying to squeeze out the most we can during the finally stretch of Veg before flower and also the last LST and defoliation before the net goes up planning on putting these into flower in another couple weeks to a month but I am scared that they will out grow the tent cause I heard they can double or triple in size during the first 3-4 weeks of flower my tent is 80 inches tall! Next feeding is in about 2 weeks and I will top dress these girls with a 50/50 mix of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and Gaia Green Power Bloom 2-8-4 and add earthworm castings with it all I’m loving the simplicity and the results of this FULLY Organic way of growing has been for me and and I will never use bottled Nutes or Powder Crystal Nutes EVER again and I’m not saying anything to those that do use them but for my lifestyle FULLY Organic best suits me and results are AMAZING! Stay Smokey My Friends! Lol

I got these girls moving fast with a lot of LST and with a lot of defoliation to uncover potential bud sites each plant is pulled and trained to expose every site from the bottom and is basically on top takes tons of time but love every second of it also loving the organic growing style and I’ve learned alot and I made my own amendment recipe well my own mix of amendments I would say and I truly feel I am now seeing the results after a month in and it’s amazing and so easy compared to mixing a bunch of different things together every time it’s feeding time once a month too dress and then just straight PH water at 6.4 or 6.5 I am thinking about adding Unsulfured blackstrap molasses maybe once a week to feed the Microbes so if you truly see a difference using molasses for feeding Microbes I would love to hear about it thanks

Purple punch (Photo) crazy LST and much needed Defoliation before and after pictures what a crazy difference that made now all the potential sites can get good light cause before it was way too thick and bushy

Did some defoliation and top dressing of the 2 Strawberry Coughs and the 1 Northern Lights and I transplanted my purple punch into a 5 Gallon fabric Pot it’s 3 weeks ahead of the other 3 I amended the soil before transplanting it with 4 tablespoons per gallon of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 25% Earthworm Castings 1.5-0-0 on the 18th 4 days later they are all doing great the 3 that got defoliated look bushier then before but look a lot more healthier and has more of the sites getting direct light

Getting bigger and bushier by the day I keep doing LST every day but I’m at the point where everything is open and all the lower growth is coming up to the top and are just about even with the rest there isn’t one lower branch or shoot that isn’t on top so that’s awesome every thing is getting even light and growing together to make up a thick and even canopy now to leave it alone and let them start to get height cause they are definitely bushy enough I can’t wait to see how this run turns out my first Photo run and my first run using organic nutrients and I must say it is so much easier then mixing gallons of water every feeding just top dress every 30 days and straight ph water it’s easier and gives better results

Coming along great added a purple punch (photo) all the way on the right of the tent!They are growing bushy after LST a week ago! Now to let them get taller my first Photo run and it’s coming out great will update along the way.

Watered the girls tonight they are thriving and really getting bushy! Nice deep green leaves and they are growing fast!Been doing a lot of LST on them everyday making sure the canopy is even and the the middle is completely open to let light hit all the lower sites! So far I am really enjoying my first Photo run unlike Autos I feel like there is always something to do cause autos you basically feed them that’s it you can do LST to them also but for the most part you just leave them alone and they do their own thing! Photo’s you need more of a hands on approach And I enjoy doing this so it’s awesome lol I can’t wait to see how full the canopy gets with all the LST that We been doing

LST training they are doing great excited to try and grow Photo’s let’s see what this will bring
