Around about 60days i know it wasnt a long grow lol :dance:
good luck with the new setup Dragon Virgin hahaha

Nice! Looks like I'll be chopping 3 next week and the 4th one 10 days after :booya:. Then finally a new thread for the hydro grow. Do you by any chance know anything on letting harvested seeds dry before germinating them? I keep finding, "let them dry for a month after picking" or "seeds will be ready to plant as soon as they fall out of the pods"..

Lol I'll have a lot to experiment with so I think I'll just pick the ones that fall out first. Also debating on doing some sativas this time around.. Been smoking indicas for too long. I feel like snorlax. Eye-ing the short stuff auto assassins right now.

Lol Sounds like a plan :dance: on the sativa note all mine have been indica dom but the Auto Bubble was Sativa and its great to have a mixture of both to suit what you wana smoke on the day/ night :thumbs:

2x Day 60 and 1 Day 52 Purple kush, Day 70 Purple ryder & 1 Royal Queen northern lights

Almost at the chop! :booya:
The 15th marks week 4 for the seeds. None have fallen out yet. So I may just chop everything else this week and keep the seed stems for another week. Would it also be okay to just cut the seed stems as low as possible and keep them in a cup of nute water? I could use the space in my tent for the hydro setup asap.

Looking nice mate :smokebuds. Not sure if yr idea for the seed stems would work though,you may just have to wait till there ripe maybe someone else with chime in with a suggestion

I tried to germ a 3 seeds a week after they fell out and still don't have any sprouting(4 days soaking in paper towl now). I usually wait one or two months and get great results.

Thanks for stopping in red! Still haven't found an answer but I'm gonna try looking around.

Damn, that doesn't sound so reassuring... . Keep me updated if they sprout! I hope I can get at least 3 to bust this round.

Chopped the northern lights and one of the purple kush girls last night! (The one that isn't growing seeds) That purp smells too fucking good. So fruity. She may yield a little over an ounce from what it looks like. Not bad for a stunted 1 footer. Don't feed nutes too early. Learned that the hard way.

More good news. Plucked one seed off the other purple girl and germed it in moist paper towels. SUCCESS! Got a nice tap root going. Purple lights is a go :booya:

Way ahead of you dragon virgin! Btw, when did you chop your purps? I'm thinking mine may be ready by day 65. I'll take some pics in a bit.

Doing some research on hydro. So far I've got a 20 gallon tote, 60 gal pump with 2 airstones, 6x 3.75" net pots (haven't decided how many I'll grow at once), 180 gph submersible pump for a drip system (hose directly in net pots) and thinking of adding a fogger to a separate glad-ware container zip tied to the top center of the res with 100-200ppm max of water soluble nutes. As far as feed schedule goes, I'm thinking 15 on, 45 off for the drip system until a bunch of roots reach the water then cut it off and 2 hours on, 2 off for the fogger.

Gonna do a general hydroponics lucas formula run this time with micro and bloom started on day 14 at half strength (4ml micro, 8ml bloom) and dialed up to 5/10, maybe even 6/12.

Chime in with your opinions on the above because any info would greatly help me out in the long run!

I'll give you one to consider that I didn't when I first did an 18 gallon tote grow: changing nutes every week. A gallon of water weighs about 8lbs.

Just something to keep in mind.
