lovely purple on the lsd :thumbsup:
:pighug:
 
I've been following this for a while, didn't have an account though. I'm growing a Hindu Kush Auto myself and you are a bit ahead, would love to see your updates.

Thanks man! Sorry if I sounded a bit bummed (maybe I gotta smoke more...lol) :baked:. I'll be posting more pic likely today.
 
Alrighty then THC people! Things are getting closer and more exciting in the past few days. The LSD25 is holding steady at only 16.5" tall but here buds are a bright purple and are going to be huge for her size. :growing:The Hindu Kush is still slowly creeping higher and now sits at 26" tall and is starting to get hairy! I suspect she will finally stop growing in the next few days as she is starting to slow down to about 1/2 per day as apposed tp almost 2" a day last week.

Conditions for these girls is 75 degrees during the day and 70 at night. RH is sitting at a pretty consistent 50% - 52% and they are still on an 18/6 light schedule. They are drinking about 1/2 gallon a day (each) which results in about 12 oz in run off per plant measuring at 6.0 ph and about 700 ppm.

I could use some advice though from anyone who might have a suggestion or recommendation. I live in an apartment and I only have 1 grow tent with a carbon filter for the smell. Now seeing that the LSD25 is probably 1 - 2 weeks ahead of the Hindu Kush and will need to be harvested and dried well before the Hindu Kush where can I do this? Would it be safe to hang the LSD25 in the same tent as the Hindu Kush that will still be flowering? If not how else could I hang to dry the LSD25 without getting the smell throughout the apartment?

Here is some eye candy for you all :frog:

Things are moving along nicely in there mate LSD is looking crazy with that dark purple colouring to it , for drying I think it needs to be in complete darkness you might be able to put it in a couple of brown paper bags inside a box or under something that will shield it from the light , not sure of the conditions you need like humidity and temps for drying which might also be affected by keeping it in the tent maybe throw a boveda pack in the bag or box to help with humidity . IV only ever had 1 harvest so will have to do some reading up myself before the chop . :thumbsup:
 
Hey man, I dried my first grow in the same tent while doing another grow. I used the paper bag method and just put the bags in the same tent no probs. I did point a little fan at the bags to move air across em but that’s it.
 
OK quick update for anyone following... Day 54 and all is well. There is a little cupping and tacoing on the top most leaves of the Hindu Kush which is due to the light being too close I suspect. So I have moved the plant as far away from the light as possible and tilted the light away from the plant.

I have reduced the MagNifiCal to 50% strength seeing that both girls have stopped growing and are far into flowering. I will reduce the MagNifiCal to 25% next week and hold it there until harvest (seeing that I am using coco)


Here is the Hindu Kush - yo can see the tacoing on a few of the top leaves.

The Hindu Kush (on left) will be yielding a tonne of buds! The LSD25 (on right) is smal but the buds are going to be thick as hell!

Until next time puff, puff, pass :pass:
 
Day 63 - Things are progressing well and I am getting excited about harvesting soon. The Hindu Kush is going to be a monster whereas the LSD25 is nice compact and it looks like it will yield some nice tight nugs. The LSD25 hairs are staring to curl inwards so I am keeping a closer look on the trichs for changes. So far they are mainly clear but are starting to turn cloudy. How long will the transition from clear to cloudy take on average? And when should I flush?

The Hindu Kush is nothing short of huge for an auto with so many colas and many popcorn buds this will give me a killer harvest I suspect. It is not quit as far along as the LSD but it is catching up quickly. I am down to about 20% in regards to the MagNifiCal and plan on continuing at that level until flush. Here are some pics. I have taken the plants out of the tent to take the pics as they just don't look good under the LED lighting. I found using the flash really shows off the colas but kills the colour (especially the purple on the LSD25).

Enjoy!
