Day 68. This girl is going down after a few more days of flushing. I have already flushed the for 2 weeks atleast, but I just want that extra clean burn. Buds look absolutely amazing. Still not sure of the exact strain, but these are definitely some kind of Sativa OG. Has that Skywalker look to it, but I would love to here your opinions on what you think it Might be. I am pretty much a Glass/tubes kind of guy, so soon as they get a week of drying and a week of curing, we will find out.

24 led's. nice. what's the wattage on the box?i just bought a couple sylvania to test out, they say 60w equivalent on the box. 8.5watts 800 lumens. didn't really count the led's they're arranged in a circle like this though. just counted...only 10...

i see you said 14 watts. sorry i'm blind. 2 for $13 is kinda pricey though for $13 i can get like 4-6 of these.

The day 68 plant is looking nice and healthy.

Both are really sativa leaning. I would keep them flowering for another week or two. There are lots of white hairs all over the plants. They don't look ready to me just yet.

Yeah I'll let this go up to 11 weeks. The other plant has a stinkier pheno, but jesus it is a long flowering plant. The other plant is still 80% white hairs, so give I'll give it 12 weeks or so.

A few of the tops on plant 2 are pretty much done, while some other tops are pretty white as you can see.

Day 71, here are some tops from Plant 2 and Plant 1. (Left and Right)


Plant 2 is on the cusp of being pulled. Plant 1 needs probably 2 more weeks. I pulled the nutes on it a little too early, but it smells and looks fantastic, it just needs to fill out more.

I am wondering how long I should run plant 2, its triches are pretty damn milky white, not all glassy like a week ago. It still has some white pistils, but mainly orange amber now.

Also, could be some Sour D. All the Sativa characteristics, the "Chem" esque smell, and 10-12 week flowering time all line up. I wish I knew the exact genetics, but I can't be sure.

I took a small bud off plant 2 on day 70, and its been drying for a few days now. It only weighed a gram and is almost done drying.

That's how I test mine.

It's old school. But it works for me.

If I smoke it and go buzzing around the house from place to place and can't stay focused on a task. I give it more time.

I prefer a more mello buzz.

Day 73.

Here is the canopy for Plants 1 and 2.

Also a close up shot 1 and 2

Plant 1 is still half clear half milky while Plant 2 is nearly all milky trichomes. Plant 1 still has plenty of white pistils, but Plant 2 is mainly orange/amber and a few white pistils.

Plant 1 will get atleast 12 weeks and Plant 2 is just about done. I am just reluctant to pull because I want it to achieve its potential, but I don't want to go over and have potential herm issues, and Its been really hot lately so temperature has been a challenge, also stash is low. These pictures looks pretty different compared to what I see from my eyes. The lighting and everything makes the biggest difference. They are much darker in person with less white pistils.

These are taking forever! Hope the quality makes up for it.

Day 76, chopped down plant 2. Stinking and looking amazing. I estimate 20-28 grams dry.

Plant one will get more time.

18 grams dry. Used a few in testing and experimentation. They hung for 2 days, spent 1 day on cardboard, and now have gotten their secondary trim and have been jarred.

Not as much as I planned, but I switched lighting throughout my grow and didn't get the optimal amount either. Still pretty good none the less. Plant 1 is still going and looks and smells way better. Just waiting on some more pistils to turn amber and we are good.

looks like you could have stood to go 2-3 weeks longer. i'm still on my first go with the led's but from my cfl days i remember it taking a week or two longer to fully ripen than under hid's. like a slow roast.

18 grams is nothing to sneeze at though. :tiphat:

Smoke is fantastic. Literally the perfect morning strain. The banana smell has gone away and tastes dank. Gives you that warm buzz that you feel on your forehead and strangely in my hands and feet. 18 grams doesn't make me exactly self-sufficient, but it does help out a lot with costs. Profile is like a Sour Berry on the nose, but not that offensive lemon OG sour taste. Solid stuff indeed.

Sounds like a great smoke. Quality over quantity.

Just a few tweeks and the volume will be where you like it.

Recently discovered a small hermie on the lower growth of the main cola. I don't think it was all that developed but I cut it off and chopped her down day 80 to avoid any future potential issues. Much denser buds on from plant 1 and smells like some kush. I estimate around 18 dry as it has a few less colas then plant 2 did, but the colas are thicker.

#2 has been drying a week, and its curing is starting to bring out more flavor. Potency is definitely almost on point with my regular supply. Taste is getting there, still has a hint of that fresh weed smell, but I would say after another week or so of sitting in the jar, it will be fantastic.

#1 is just beginning curing. Dried for 3 days hanging at 42% RH at about 75f, got 1 day on cardboard, and now are jarred. Found 2 white seeds, decent size, but zero maturity. I assume they popped up in the last week and I just couldn't see them because of the buds.

I haven't weighed #1 yet, but estimate its dry weight to be pretty close to what #2 did.

Planing my next crops, debating if I should just go big and get a 3 gallon container, and try to do a monster , or stick with two 2.5 Liter pots with a shorter veg time. What do you guys think? I am also going to retire this thread as the title is annoying me and is inaccurate.

Might I suggest.

Sticking with smaller pots keeps the heights down. Look for shorter wide pots cut down taller pots.

Plant 1 is 15 grams dry. About 2/3 are colas and the other 1/3 was lower larf. Just giving it that last little cure for another week or two and then I will give a detailed report.

Just germinated 2 seeds. One labled Holy Grail and another random OG seed. The HG seed has busted and has been planted and the OG seed still hasn't popped yet. It is also a super thick seed so maybe thats why? Gonna give it a day or two before I try another.
