Beautiful job man, this is very inspiring for a new grower :dance013:

Hey Gadget thanks for stoppin in man and welcome to ICM. Glad you liked the grow and thannks for the props. I'l be starting round 2 soon and table 2 is close to being done. Not as good as table 1 but had different things going on with it.

When round 2 is ready I'll start another thread for it.

Did a feeding last night, usually Sat & Sun flower doesn't get anything but because I was busy on Wen with trimming things got pushed back. The moms got watered too they were thirsty.

Table 2 Week 7: PBPS 15, HZ 8, DN 5, AB 2, FP 1, SE 10, MO 15, ph 5.9, ppm 1450

I upped the PBPS a little since they're getting close to the end and kicked in a little more bloom booster. Still though table 2 is no where near as good as table 1 was. Although the CDS is putting on some weight. The OG is scrawny compared to last time. And the SG is suppose to be on it's last week but I'm gonna push it one more and see if she'll give a little more. :plant grow:

Working on a way to go with a sealed room since it's getting warmer and things are gonna start heating up soon. Plus I'm wanting to get the most out of these girls as possible. Geez I feel like a pimp :smokey:

I'm wondering if I seal the room how I can vent the lights w/o pulling any ac out. I can go in & out of the attic but that would be a hot air exchange and don't know if that would help at all. Any ideas fellow farmers? :wave:

Took some pics of veg and of the emptied pots from flower

Some mag def going on with the CDS in veg


Phosphorus def with the BK


As you can see the OG's rooted well in the 1gal pots


I was concerned that the roots may have turned green in the white pots but they didn't.

Well it was feeding time on the grow and because of the deficiency I upped the CalMag and added some Diamond Nectar to veg.

Veg Week 2: PBPG 13, HZ 8, DN 5, ST 1D, CM 5, PS 1.25, PH 5.85, PPM 1077

SG & FOG Week 2: PBPBH 20, HZ 8, DN 5, CM 5, HP 5, FP 1, PH 5.9, PPM 1500

Table 2 Week 8: PBPS 15, HZ 8, DN 5, SE 10, FP 1, AB 1.25, MO 15, PH 5.9, PPM 1512

Table 2 SG Week 8: Flushed RO ph 5.85, ppm 18

I'll get some pics up of table 2 tomorrow.

I've been drying the buds and some feel dry but the stems don't snap they just bend. I read to wait for the stems to snap before curing. Is this right?

When "snap" is mentioned, it is meant that the branch make the snap noise w/o breaking. In most cases after hanging for 7-10 days, they buds are ready to be jarred. Just make sure you open the jars during curing to let the moisture out and the fresh air in.

As promised some pics of table 2. Both the OG & SG are not doing well at all. The OG's buds are oddly shaped. This could have been caused by one of 3 or all 3 factors mentioned earlier. The only one doing halfway decent is the CDS

OG


SG


CDS


The 2nd round will be starting soon but some changes wil be made. Sealed room, either E&F of drip emitters not sure yet. Looking to use smart pots with a coco.

That's sick!! They actually look great broo. I'm not sure if you've seen it. But the bud structure on the let say sour diesel ibl. Some OG cross's have crazy bud structure. But if you've grown it out and didn't look like that could just be diff phenos.
