Diary Killing it with Urban Legends Cookies, Mandarine & Sour Cheese (auto) under MH FC3000

[exploziv]

Yeah, bro! Thank you!
Can't wait to puff on the Mandarines! Soon! They still a bit damp, since they been at a constant 19-21 C and 50-60 % RH for a slow drying. Once I jar more buds I will take some more bud pics and then when they nice and ready to smoke I will do a smoke report on each variety.

Very slow drying .. buds are still a bit damp. So far, I got 2 plants I was counting as small and thinking they will yeld like 45-50 gr togheter, put them on the scales and they were 50+ gr buds + 10 g popcorn (under 0.5 g per bud) + at least 5 gr I smoked off it before weighting it. So we are at a partial result of ~32.5 grams per plant, out of 2 plants. This makes me think we are gonna be a bit over 1.5 gpw, but under 2 gpw, most probably.
The mandies, one of them is like 1.5 times the yeld of other bigger plants, and one is for sure second best of the all bunch so they will raise the average, and those will dry last, so really can't wait to see my final yeld and also puff some mandarine, which I haven't tried yet! The cookies are really a killer, nice high and very much relaxation.. u can hug the sofa at any time if you finish a joint too fast or do next one too soon.. so yeah proper killer bud.

Just had a sample of the bushier mandarine plant and I am impressed. More uplifting high than the cookies. And much more nice taste, finer, more refined. Its like puffing some fine tabacco with a hint of citrus and mint/coffee undertones. And it was just a bit fast dried and also I puffed on small popcorns, as bigger ones still not dry enaugh. Should be a gem after some curing. And, ofc can't wait to try the bigger top buds..
Pics of the buds should come in about 2 days, when I expect most of them to be dry enaugh for destemming, weighting and jarring.

Hey hey , time to enjoy !!!

 

[exploziv]

Yep .. bro! I am really enjoying them!

Another 2 plants been weighted and they were right over 60gr bud and 15 gr popcorn buds, so that means 37.5 gr average for those 2 plants, and a nice 35 gr average per plant so far out of 4 plants weighted.
there are 2 more cookie plants drying on the line to be destemmed and weighted, but I will do it another time. Also, the mandarines still need to dry a bit more to be ready for jarring. And they are all chilling at a nice 20C and 56% RH right now.
Mandarines should be well over 100 gr toghether, so I hope to get a tiny bit over 35 g average once I count those. One mandarine plant takes almost double drying space compared to cookies on the rope.. so I would hope for a little boost in yeld.
See you guys soon, sadly (for you guys, for me its's allright hahahahahaha) today I been high as fuck and forgot to prepare the camera and by the time I remembered about it I was too sticky on my hands and too wasted to go get it (vaping cookies while destemming and jarring buds). I promise you guys and gals I will prepare some nice pics when I get to the mandies, next week. one love!!!!

Super buds bro! I can smell them from here. At least you didn't take a chance with your camera. I'm on my 3 camera because of the stickie fingers. I messed up by putting the lens too close to a bud and got stickie on the shutter door. I use a cheap camera and can replace $150. Super garden you did good and helped a lot of people learn about pH and EC. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you! I really hope it helps people cause to be honest keeping this thread takes me about as much time as I spend taking care of the plants on average.
I had no worries about the camera in my case, I was just lazy.

Now I just puffed a o.45 gr joint of mandarine killer and I am enjoying the high. I really recomend this strain to anyone that wants to try a nice auto hybrid. The high is more sativish compared to cookies and also yeld could be bigger on it. A indica loving pothead would probably fancy the cookie killer more. Mandarine I like the taste and its much cleaner and finer taste. And its like almost doesn't need curing, already! Cookies are more pungent taste, but not as fine and qualitative as the mandies, it's a bit too rich, lots of things happening at once. It has more depth to its aromas as well.

lol bro !
as an indica pothead i really agree ,
this mandy is really more sativ and uplifting ,
make me more goin to sativa now ,
which is really not attempted from my habits ....
i like the effect for gaming ( and i'm more reactive and " in " the game ) ...

lol, enjoy bro , and if you don' t know what to do , i can be " the whale "

:friends:

 

[exploziv]

Heya bro! I can not imagine how any of this weed would make you more reactive. Maybe it makes you think you are more reacting. I tried gaming and I just sit there and laugh in front of a screen like mad people and forget about the keyboard and mouse after a while..
As about the whales, I think they keep a fast over winter and live off the fat storage layer.

Stay high and stay happy mate
Enjoy

Thank you, man! Keep doing the same, there!
one love!

Good stuff Sir and makes me once more think Autos are underrated!

Just weighted the smaller mandarine @ 24 gr bud and 9 gr popcorn bud for a total of 33 gr.
Then I made a nice 50 gr jar from the 2 cookies left to weight, with a leftover pile of 23 gr of some buds and al the popcorn. that means an average of 36.5 on those 2 plants.
Total average per 7 plants so far, according to my calculator, is: 35.1428571429 grams per plant. The 2 remaining plants should be a bit over the average, but as you can see a gram here and there doesn't change the average much at this point. Keeping in mind the light stayed at under 75% on the dial the whole grow, which is 187W, we will take that as light wattage, altrough that is a maximum, as I slowly ramped up the wattage so the average W used is probably a bit lower. That gives us an average of just over 1.7 gpw out of 7 plants. So fking close to my past grows, lol.
Anyway, hopefully I manage to feed them a little better and mantain the ph next time so I have a chance at 2gpw, which is kinda the number I would love to beat with my yelds once I figure coco watering and feeding stuff.
Pics coming soon!

wow. 1.7gpwI remembered these plants were in sick and then come back to life under you care. Very nice work.

Pic dump:

So yeah, Killer mandarine gets the orange jar!

I ended up with a bucket of leaves or so.. a big pile!

Close-up on mandarine buds.

You can see the dust and filth on the middle part of the prefilter cloth, between the orange hangers. This is just from a grow, and with filtered intake..

Macro on mandarine popcorn buds. So u guys understand those are not lower quality, just smaller or less dense than the buds.

Close-up on Auto Killer Mandarine buds (from Urban legends). Great smoke!

Again, popcorn buds!

Some half trimmed buds ready to be destemmed, retrimmed and jarred.

 

[exploziv]

So yeah guys, a pretty much good grow, out of a really bad start. This shows you can turn things around if you see the problems in time. For sure it could have been better, but I am very surprised with the quality I got anyway. I can swear the look much better in reality than in the pics. And the smell is fantastic. Mandie is a classy mix fruits and pepper/coffee, and cookies if a fking bomb of aroma, very sweet/frutty, with a lot of undertones going on.

Final weight on the 2 bigger mandies is in. Average of 42 gr a plant (more like ~50 on the compact big one and like ~30 on the tall, but lanky one.)
So that brings up the average at : 36.555 gr/plant and the gpw is 1.759 grams per watt at the 187W (75% on the dimmer) that has been used at most during this grow.

congrats for the big harvest. I watched a ups and downs show here.
