After I got everybody moved around a few days ago, I tweaked the 4x4 and 3x 3 tents Environment. Both Kent's now have their exhaust fans set to one. This is helping to keep the temperatures up a little higher and the humidity a little higher. This is to take advantage of the higher C02 levels. They have definitely responded!
I definitely hope they are at the end of their stretch! The light is as high in the tent as I can get it. The big girl is seeing little less than 1200ppfd at the very top. That gives a nice little DLI of 47.52. The others are a little lower, but I don't know if I have anything to raise them up that small amount to even the coverage.
I'm running the C02 at 1200 PPM, so I don't think that's too high of a light intensity.
You can see the light and it is at the very top of the tent. I think I'm gonna start running the UVA light. Set it to run five minutes every hour during lights on. I think it's conservative enough not to harm and enough to do some good.
This is 21 days from flip.
I like how these girls are forming up! I definitely like how the main branches Spread out with multiple secondary branches. I think the stacking looks pretty decent also.
Here's the big girl! She definitely has some big side branching. I think she's going to need some bamboo to help support them when they get heavy with flo to help support them when they get heavy with flower. They are stout, but they're just too long not to support them.
Her tent mates in the five gallon bags.
Things are looking great in the seed making tent!
We have browning pistils everywhere!
I played with the color to contrast the browning.
Look at that generous frost.
You can zoom in at various other bud sites and see the same thing!
Such Outstanding results on reversal females!
I wish I would have made a video! After I took this picture, I slapped that girl and a
huge Cloud of pollen popped up!
Last few days I have been reaching in and shaking them without looking. Was the first time I slapped them as I was looking at them! It was pretty cool!
Realistically, I think I really only need to keep them in there maybe through this week. I'm pretty sure I have currently quite a few potential pollinations that would probably suffice. If I let it go too much further past this point, those seats are not really going to mature fully. my thought process is that whatever seeds I get at this point or a week later, would be
fully mature when I let her go as long as practical.
Does that sound logical to you guys?
And here is the Crazy S1 clone from the 4x4 ten I'll start training her this week. The other crazy S1 clone is pretty far behind. The other two girls didn't share their light very well!
It's almost a shame that the next couple of days I'll chop this girl and put her in the freezer. Those buds are almost too pretty to do that! She is a medicinal so she gets converted to live Rosin!
But as soon as she is harvested, I can change the environment in my lung room. I can then turn the AC up a few degrees and then also turn my exhaust fans up. I'll still have the same VPD, but more air flow. I like lots of air flow! Especially running the higher CO2!
I guess I need to start thinking about the next grow. Today is 21 days from Flip. They should have roughly 45 to 55 days left. Naturally these seeded girls will probably run a week to two weeks longer to make sure the seeds are mature. I will probably chop them when I see seeds trying to pop out.
Probably the best thing I need to do is get the media set up for the next grow. I think I will use my two largest totes and start that sometime this coming week.
I don't really know if I'm going to start another grow before Christmas. It
kinda sorta depends on my old Crown Vic. I really need to rebuild the suspension and give it a tune up before I take a Christmas trip to see my boy. If I can get the suspension done before the end of this grow, then I won't start another until after the first of the year.
I wanna have a nice little Christmas visit with my boy and the family.
I kind of think I want to do another photo run. I really want to try SuperTrainWreck in a regular earth box. I could make the 4x4 Tent in all Twenty20 Mendocino with Snow G. I think those two should be compatible to run in the same tent. Maybe
@Twenty20 Adam will give me his expert opinion! I was really impressed on how early SuperTrainWreck put on the frost outside! Too bad the stupid Bud rot got her during that stupid long humid period.
I would kind of like to do
@Jean-O The Legend In a regular earth box and in the 2X4 tent. I'm pretty sure that that girl could fill the tent.
That leaves the 3x3 tent. I do need to grow at least one medicinal. I could run either autos or photos.
Here are my auto candidates:
Aunt Jeannie's Elixir ............. A known strain and quite Good medicine .
Auto CBD Victory
Vidamints............... A known strain grown twice and very very good medicine
CBD Haze
Auto Elephant A known strain, very good producer and also very good medicine
Sweet CBD................. A known strain but I did not handle her well. Kind of inconclusive on whether she's good medicine or not
Gold Widow C B D....................@BCBudlady ................ Can you clear up if that is an auto or a photo? And is she a big or small girl?
Here are my photo candidates:
CBD Mazaar
CBD Skunk Haze.................... They currently growing girl that produces well but unknown quality of medicine. I suspect it will be quite good.
I do have some other gifted auto medicinals, but I really want to make more seeds of them before I grow them out. I'm just not going to make seeds on this run.
And that's The status of the Grow today! Now that I've got this update done, I can finish up on moving things around and getting my new PS5 setup. It will definitely be nice to play on the weekly playlist with my crew after most everybody else had already migrated to the PS5.
