Indoor kfigerm tries his best

[kfigerm]

I have to leave the girls alone for a while and i am near the end. I decided to harvest in two steps. First step was done with taking off the upper colas of ws and scc They ripe and i don't want to risk them nice buds.
Top Left and top back is now in 6 brown paper bags

and these are the remains for some time - changes in the back and right side now (swapped left and right plant - untouched runtz now left )
The leftover canopy is nearly even now and some nice buds left to ripen.

Cheers!

So I was away for a week and the girls were alone. I had a little imp who checked all two times a week and everything was fine, but the res was empty and had to be refilled - no spillover at all, I calculated the watering times well.
So here is how they welcomed me back home.

So I directly continued harvesting and took out the watermelon skittles - at first it was a glue smell but then the watermelon scent came through and filled the room

most of her is taken down and in 10 brown paper bags, the larf is still in the tent - was tired after three hours of trimming.
The next days we will have even more bags to fill.

Cheers! Have a nice Week!

also partially took down this lady - also tired after two hours of trimming. I hate nightshifts, but it's best with all the stink, cos between 2-4 most people sleep tight.
Las pics before harvest - hard to take a good shot, cos the flowers fall down.

the "first flush" is in 5 brown bags and more to come.

Cheers!

the title tells the all about the story - runtz is gone into brown paperbags.
This time i kept awake longer and i also could finish the watermelon skittles. Now only half of the strawbery cheesecake is left over.
But now the star of today - the runtz last pics

Cheers!

All is packed in brown paper bags and drying for the next days. Work is done.
Now one last pic of the wall of white of the runtz' roots.

Have a nice weekend!

Cheers!

So today is the day to sum things up
What is still there went onto the scale

scc - about 30g have already gone with the wind

ws - some misses here too already

runtz - all

so if you substract the bags weight and do a rough approx, there was about 550g+.

The grow was nearly as I wanted it to be, not knowing much about the ladies, except they finish around the same time. And all was only about a week apart from another in the end. In the early flower i had to split reservoirs for one and the little glitch with the lights lead to more stretch than wanted. But alltogether it was really enjoyable.
The Watermelon Skittles buds are really nice and dense, which was the reason i partially harvested her before i left - i feared budrot. But all went well.
The strawberry cheese cake was a bit leafy, but has nice big buds, more larf because she didn't have light in the underwear, but that still was rosinous.
The Runtz has very fluffy, airy buds but was also a good yielder - lets see how she will perform in smoke, and if she really replaces the think different as a benchmark.

Don't know what i will grow in autumn yet, but got some nice beans to test. But i have to sort out the "smaller" growing ones and plant the biggers next spring when they can finish outside [when it is hopefully legal here then].

I hope you like the boring thread and we'll see after a short break to avoid summer heat.
Idk if and when there will be a report on the smoke - all strains are well known and there's no need for another pov.
Perhaps one thing and a note to myself - the scissor hash of the scc was like black afghan with minty scents and flexible for days.
Stay safe and Cheers!

So we head to another grow. The heat is over and the stash level goes lower.
So I have to decide what to grow and let you call in.
First the barneys farm beans I have:

The first spot goes to the BF Runtz auto - i like it. Its wooden earthy taste and the buds resemble the td whithout the pine scent. This stays the specimen for comparability of the grows.

Then there are left for votes:

wedding cake auto - liked the last very much - if not now, then i'll grow it next autumn
mimosa x orange punch auto - new to me
glue gelato auto - i liked the gelatos i smoked, this will be the first homegrown

and there's one fastbuds seed - mimosa cake auto

All should grow and finish in the approx same time window.
All will be in pyramids - two spots left for the threesome.
The only thing that changes is the "even more light" factor - a fc 4800 replaces the 3000 for better coverage - but will hopefully will be dimmed most of the time below full power. It fits perfectly in the 1m tent

Let me know what you would choose and why.

Cheers!

 

[kfigerm]

So it was hard to decide, but i will go with

-bf runtz auto
-bf glue gelato auto
-fb mimosa cake auto

all soaked today as usually in ro water with a little rhizotonic.

Ready for takeoff!

Cheers!

After a day two seeds have cracked and put into eazyplugs - the runtz is late but seems alive.
Lets see if we keep having 100% germination rate since i started growing again. Bean quaility really makes me happy these days.

Cheers!

First pics of the start phase.
Only the glue gelato shows her head, the mimosa cake digs her roots down and the runtz is still sleeping in her shell
So not much to see yet.

but from up above you notice the bigger light - the fc-3000 was given to a friend and replaced with this fc-4800 - will keep it angled a bit until the canopy widens. Starting with DLI 12 - for the glue gelatos sake first full light day will be tomorrow - going with 18/6 and in early to mid flower with 20/4 this time. The complete setup as is with DLI 12 already draws 100W from the wall. But in the previos grows there was a lack of light in the corners and outer ranges, so i hope this will make this situation better and will pay off.

Nutes will be advanced hydroponics of holland 3 part + custom N/Mg, but i'll come to that later when the magic starts. There's only a little rhizotonic in the soak atm.

Cheers!
