300w LED + Alien Blackberry grow

[Kill a Watt]

flushed for the past few days and chopped off the tops. the really large ones were getting bud rot from the density. i lost out on some nice buds.

AD, thanks mate. I'm eagerly waiting for the stuff to dry to get total weight.

 

[GP73LPC]

although you feel you could have done better, and i am sure you will and can, 8 ozs is nothing to be ashamed of.

that's gonna be somewhere around .75 gpw

did a quick trim on the dried buds. looks like i'll be getting more than 8 oz

i keep telling myself .. only a few more left..

 

[GP73LPC]

lol...

alright finished trimming what i thought is worth trimming. the rest is gonna be turned into hash.


total dry weight from this grow is 12.9 oz. i think it could have been better but oh wells. i'll live with the results. some of the nugs were really really big.


i foliar fed bloom nutes all the way up to week 4 which i believe helped with this grow. the idea came from sp1 at RIU The Lost Art of Foliar Feeding
there are people for it and against it. i like to try things for myself and see the results before saying it does or doesn't work. air flow is necessary to avoid PM. foliar feeding made a lot of sense as imo it's similar to hydro where you can feed it frequently. in soil you must wait a few days between feedings through the medium. i fed 2 medium feedings through the soil weekly with a watering between. the foliar was fed daily.


if i were to do this again, 1)i would have went with coco as the medium instead of soil as it dries faster. 2) used more blue leds for quicker veg. 3) went with a different strain (it's a indica and the bunched leaf grow really sucked as some of the small fan leaves between the tight budsites died. as a result, the really big dense buds rotted. i know i lost a lot of weight because of this.)


here is the bud porn. thanks for all those who followed along. it has been a ride for me with these leds.
