From seed to harvest it is between 8/9 weeks . I would say you will have some plants ready in around 3/4 weeks by looking at them .

That's exactly what I needed to hear brother.

What do you think @Antonio_DutchPassion? Is that just in time for the new grown 'n show? No hard feelings if it ain't :bighug:

@NORB YIPPLS, thanks for the rep mate!!

I've sprayed my ladies one last time with the BoomBoom Spray about half an hour ago.

This raised the humidity so much, that I've set the extraction fan to 50%. This will keep a nice airflow through the plants and remove all that humidity at the same time. Lowered the light to 50% as I don't want to run the risk that water bubbles burn some holes in the leaves.
I'm aiming on getting the tent back up and running at the right VPD in around 1 -2 hours. This should be enough time for the ingredients inside the BoomBoom Spray to be absorbed by the leaves. Also I would like to keep the wet time to a minimum as I don't want to risk any mold of course.

I started out with a VPD of 0.40 or even a bit lower. Now, half an hour later, I'm already up to 0.78. So if I get back up to 1.14 in the next half hour I'll be a happy camper. I'll also be downloading the time lapse images every now and again to check if the plants are still wet. If I see no drops on their surfaces, I'll start by turning the light back to 60% and then adjust the extraction fan accordingly to keep de VPD between 1.10 and 1.20.

Regards,

Bob :toke:

Solid plan. Ah, you'll make the GnS no problem, they'd be silly not to include you.

Thanks brother!! I really hope so

Also wanted to show you guys the reaction to the BoomBoom Spray. First frame is yesterday just after spraying, second frame is today, 25 hours later!!
Look at the plants that remain in position and look at how they are expanding... Nice no? :woohoo1:

It did take a bit longer for the tent to get back to normal values and I even had to turn the extraction fan to 60%, but after about 3 hours everything was dry, but because of the "Boost" they received it was hard for the system to keep up. This morning the pots felt like they lost about half of their weight, which isn't that difficult to believe.

I'm now hovering at 1.13, but this comes at a cost. Namely temperature...Would love to see it at 24°C/75°F, but the weather outside prevents me from getting there. Luckily the ladies have warm feet as the heatbed is running full on.

Regards,

Bob :toke:

Ye mate, just in time I think. Before we get everyone on board, send out the seeds, etc etc. I think most of you will start somewhere middle of April anyway. And if not, I'm sure as hell to make an exception for you

Keep it up and finish this one properly first! :cooldance:

Thanks so much for the trust in me :thumbsup:

You better know it brother!! These ladies will get there's in due time, but first they need to grow up a bit more.

The expansion is just crazy and we're not even finished producing pistils...I'd be inclined to give them another spraying next weekend, but I'm not going to. This was the third and last treatment and I'm following the guidelines to the letter :thumbsup:

I added another picture to the gif. I'll try and not touch the plants so they stay in place and the difference is more pronounced. I'll try to make one every day/other day... :shooty:

Hey friends :bighug:

Let me start by saying that I'm glad I'm extracting air to the outside and so create an underpressurized environment in the tent as well as in the lung room. Opening the tent throws a sweet musky smell in my direction and fills the lung room almost immediately...Pure bliss :drool:

Ten days after my Schwazzing attempt these ladies have filled in the open spaces very well. I've seen this with my mate @Vapo's ladies, but I'm very glad to see them do this in my tent as well. :woohoo1:

Before I show you guys some more budp0rn, first the technical stuff...
Don't tell my wife, but I've place a small heater set at 18° in the lung room. This really is needed as the temperature had become the bottleneck.
Doing this did change things inside remarkably...Humidity went plummeting down, so much so that extraction is back at 14%. The higher temperature (I actually aimed the heater in the direction of the co² yeast generator :chimp:

) and the low extraction optimizes the amount of co² which remains available for the ladies.
So yeah, I'm very happy I added the heater. :coffee:

I'm keeping the VPD above 1.2 kPa, but below 1.3. By next week I'll be adjusting that to above 1.3 kPa.

Don't know if I should be turning the light a bit lower? What do you guys think? Feedback is always appreciated, you know that right? :d5:

I'm already at 50+ DLI, but try to optimize everything as best I can, so I'm kinda in dubio about lowering the amount of photons :shrug:

Ok, enough technicality... :wiz:

As promised I've added another time lapse picture to the gif. And expansion isn't stopping you guys!!! :yay:

Just amazing, the amount of trichomes on the buds and surrounding leaves. A real extraction cultivar that S.o.S. is! ♥

The pistils are starting to curl a bit, which indicates they have lost their vigor and the only thing they can do is fatten up those calyx'.

Yup, that larger pheno does stretch and this opens up the buds. Is this a bad thing? I think not. Less chance for moisture to get stuck inside. What do you think @Sawney_bean?

One of the large pheno plants, which I think could fill up nicely!

On the small pheno ladies, the amount of pistils and the close proximity indicate rock hard nuggs... Hmmmm, patience is a virtue, my friends. :rofl:

Who dusted this lady with icing sugar?

I'm gonna shut up now... :hookah:

Ok, one more thing...But I think you guys won't mind and some will even be looking out for it.
Today's time lapse. Duration = about 4 days, I already moved the files before I could look up the start/finish date :wall:

. Speed = 60fps. Enjoy!!

for following along peeps! Happy to be a part of this great community :smokeout:

Bob :toke:

looks fantastic mate. The larger pheno will have more of a cheese leaning side to it . Yummmm. Keep up the good work mate , love it.
