END WEEK 6

Okay, so Heres my weekly update. sorry I didn't give it on sunday as promised, buuuuuttttt I bet it didnt ruin n e bodies day.

Without further a-due..

Top cola

One of the lower colas

okay guys so a little info on this week of the grow. I have taken two branches that were touching the door and the back of my cab and moved them so that they face the side 90 watt panels. this is good because the tops will get more light intensity and so will the inner buds of the plant.

There is a lot of leaf yellowing going on in these pictures. some leaves are getting color again because I watered with an aerated worm tea that is high in nitrogen, but I did have to remove a few of them.

for some reason the past two days the heat has been kicking in the box. I had to change the light schedule so that one panel is off while the other is on works great temps are around 78F, but im sacrificing some light intensity.

Okay so dose anyone have a prediction on when this baby will finish up?

Looking nice. I'd say it needs about 3 more weeks.

Okay, so I've been trimming off the dying leaves from the bottom of the plant and in the processes decided to pull some of the smaller underdeveloped buds as well. I picked them about 4 days ago and they're dry so I popped em in a bowl. The smell is the same as the taste, citrus fruity with something else thats hard to describe, but it was a little harsh. I defiantly felt the effects. they didn't last long but was a very wired head high.

End week 7

Update! this baby is 8 weeks from germ today making her 50 days old.

There's not a whole lot of changes going on she's growing steady and strong, even so I still have some concerns. Every stem is purple even the main stem could this be a problem? I know now that my temps at night can be at 73F but when my home air is running temps are colder and average around 60F. right before lights out its around 95F in my box. I also have an air intake run while lights off.

(this image is clearer in the attachments)



Is now the time to start flushing? would there be any ill effects if I were to use 1/2 to 1/4 strength dose of molasses during flush?

I took pix at the same angle as last time to let you get a good week for week comparison.

A Great DIY with great sucess!:booya:keeping going.

 

[Muddy]

You could have a little P deficiency this close to finish that could be contributing to the red stems, along with the cold lights off temps. At this point I wouldn't be concerned. They look like they have about 2 weeks left so I would go ahead and start flushing them.

Thanks a lot Vaped! I Hope this system will produce for years to come. One plant just wont satisfy me and im already thinking of expanding. I checked out your box and would love to bounce ideas around with you I love the DIY so please feel free to contact me.


and Muddy thanks for the steady, sound advice. Ill be flushing, but I wanna give one more small dose of molasses in my watering tomorrow then all phed from there

HARVEST!

9 weeks on the nose, 63 days and she falls

So this grow was very special for me being my first. I tried growing a few times when I was young always indoors and I always got caught so for this one to make it to harvest makes me SOSOSOSO HAPPY!

I checked the trics on all the flowers yesterday and saw that they were uniformly cloudy with clear percentage varying from the top (2%) middle (3%) and bottom (5%). on top, I saw some amber and Im not looking for a stone with this grow really just want some heady sativa goodness so I decided it was time.

I dont have any pics of her right before the harvest so I apologize but heres what I do have for you.

Well done, + rep for a fine harvest. DR is still one of my favorites, I'm sure you're going to enjoy it. Will be looking forward to seeing how much she weighed once she's dry.

 

[kamko15]

Muddy, thank you so much for the constant support it always blows my mind that someone who dosnt even know me would take the time to help me so much I only wish I could return the favor.
Dry weight will be coming soon.! as well as a smoke report.

Thanks also for the +Rep!!
