Hey bud,

Today is chopchop, all below...

Havent smoked yet obv but from what I have seen and smelt so far, I would say yes.... Especially as I become a better grower, increasing size and yield while preventing some of the issues I ran in to. Have 4 more GSC seeds anyway though just paper-toweled some Green Crack and have to decide whether to do the West Coast OG or the Gorilla Glue by its side... First I need to chop the blueberry which has a good week left in her....

Day 62 - Choping GSC

Hey peops,

Today I have chopped down the GSC, she smells amazing, just shame about the final size and weight, only 52g wet... I will be luck to end up with a half ounce, but a half ounce of luscious bud i must add!! All trim being saved for cannabutter, something I have always saved up sugar leaf for but will do separate batches with trim and actual sugar leaf...

Blackberry still has some days left in her... She is swelling like a mofo and also smells amazingly berry like, hehe.... Hopefully she will wight in better that GSC, well she defo will!!

This morning I hooked up the Mars Hydro 400, next to the 250hps, ready for my next grow. I have also paper-toweled a Green Crack and must now debate on whether to drop the West Coast OG or the Gorilla Glue next her.... What you guys think? Will obviously be doing a separate journal....

I am also planning on using the hps with the LED but only during flowering stage and only set to come on for 45m-1h at a time with an hour off in between so not to overheat the environment.... Good idea or bad? Seeing as its all connected with the carbon filter and cooltube reflector, I may as well no?

Looking Good!

When your tent becomes empty for cleaning to get ready for the next run, turn on all of your lights and exhaust fan during the hottest part of the day and record how long it takes to reach ~ 90°F. ( kind of high for HPS so you may need to keep a little higher from the plants) this would be the longest time you should run all of your lights together. Then turn off the Mars or HPS and see how long it takes to get down to ~78°F. This would be when you can cycle the light back on. Not ideal but really the only issue doing this is the lost photons during the grow cycle.

Day 66 - Bringing down the BB & GSC Weigh In ;(

So Today we started off by weighing in the GSC as believe it or not it was crispy enough with a nice dry stem, all after 4 days, can that even be right? Came in at a miserable 13g of very tasty looking, sticky and crystallized bud... Will transfer to jar with B62 pack tomo.

Bud is out the grinder, defo still carrying a bit of moisture but it just smells amazing and will definitely improve and improve... will go ahead and roll up this fucker.... Quite tasty and smokes pretty clean but defo needs some further curing...

Now that we have something to smoke, time to chop the Blackberry. It could have gone another few days but not gonna get that much more size I dont think and seeing around 10% amber trichs which will do fine. Plus I have Green Crack, Gorilla Glue and West Coast OG in paper towels for my next journal.

Girl Scout Cookies = 61g wet

Better than the gsc but still a shiteeee yield... Really need to fix that asap, hoping the lower temps and different spectrums of the LED help me next round.... In fact im praying!!

Yields will get better in time bro, you took them all the way to a harvest of highly respectable sparkly nuggets, and thats what really matters. Look forward to seeing you take what you have learnt from this time round into your new grow, and the increased growth that is sure to come with it

Jam:

I have 40 plus years of organic fruit and vegetable growing experience and most of it transfers to indoor cannabis growing. I learn new stuff every day. I have had some great successes and some colossal failures and everything in between. The important thing is to keep trying and don't be afraid to ask for help or try new things.

You're in a great spot to get the knowledge you need to be a great farmer!
