New Grower Vegasbear's Noob Growing Adventures

Day 74

Plant on the left is very much ready to come down. Leaves are yellowing all over, and plenty of amber trichromes popping up. Pictures don't show how many yellowing leaves are really there. Might have to hang-dry her because the fridge is packed. Plant on the right - Rondell - has another week at least.

So, in future grows where I'm planning on doing extensive training, I'll have to remember to omit the silica blast. Makes the branches too fat and woody too fast.

Also, this week is gonna be pretty warm. Shorts and tee shirt weather for sure!

Day 22

Topped again at fourth node on each plant, cleaned up large fan leaves. You can see a random growth tip coming off the broken side of #2 - I have no idea where its coming from because it appears to be growing from where the cotyledon was, not the first node that was cut off.

You can also see where I almost broke #3, and how gnarly their stems are. Silica blast works, that's for sure!

The two remaining plants came down yesterday, at 80 days.


Rondell, who was ridiculously bushy the entire grow no matter how much I defoliated him, gave 14oz wet weight. He had issues the entire grow, slowing down and then having all sorts of minor nutrient issues.

Alfred, who cane out very different than the other three in phenotype expression, gave 17oz wet weight. Would have been much more, but a bit of bud on the lower parts of the branches - especially where light penetration was less than optimal - were kind of airy and less dense than the rest of the harvest and all of that got frozen for hash or butter later. I still have 5# of VERY strong butter from the first two plants.

Day 24
Nothing the last two days. I will do some LST tonight and then be pretty much away from home the next three days (got three back to back 17hr shifts, bleh).

Flower tent got sanitized and the new system from PA Hydroponics got installed. Waiting on some bulkheads and a pump for the res chiller coming Wednesday and it'll be up and running.
