My 2nd Grow Show

Thanks MGJ, I think you just might be the only one watching my grow anymore. :pointlaug But yeah I am trying to get the fine details of my growroom all worked out so I can get the smell under control as that shit really makes me paranoid. As for the harvest I am hoping to get a gram per watt but thats a bit of a pipe dream I am thinking so we'll see what happens.

Hiya HC :wave:
I'm counting 3654 views on a thread of 100 posts - that's 35+ views per posting which is an excellent ratio - so folks are viewing and taking in your experience. You're doing well enough that many don't feel they have much to add, just enjoying your artistry... A gram / watt is a bit ambitious expectation early on - I'd say hope for .5 gram / watt and if you do better than that you can be properly surprised and ready for major props. :canabis:

Well I was about 30 days into flowering and some relatives came to stay with me so I cut it down, rather be safe then sorry right?

i'd be hard pressed to not tell my mother to get a freaking hotel room, but i understand, man.

i hope my grow looks half as good as yours in a few months.

Dankbudz: Well I had 3 NLxBB and 1 White Rhino in 5 gallon buckets, The 3 NLxBB ended up yielding me about 4 1/2 oz's in the end.

Fatty Arbuckle: Well Its my under standing is that once the trichs start to become amber the THC begins to degrade. So I harvest when trichs were mostly cloudy. I began checking at around 55 days and i believe i axed them at around 58-59, its amazing how quickly the trichs will start to change color so make sure you pay attention to that. Pick yourself up a 10 dollar microscope from radioshack if you haven't already.

AlaskanGro: Thanks Alaskan it looks like killer dank and smokes like it I was very impressed with my abilities because to tell ya the truth I really wasn't expecting anything too great. I did manage to pull clones but I actually took clones off everything about 28 days into flower as my first try turned out unsuccessful. But the two MMM#2 i got to root and the NLxBB and White Rhino will be going into soil sometime soon. I am not really impressed with my yield because I know to my ability and the strain itself NLxBB is capable of some impressive yields. This next grow I plan on dialing some stuff in better so there is less error this time around.

Hey MGJ thanks for the kind words, If you actually look closey at the clones you can still see trichs on them because i pulled those at about 28 days into flower and they are just starting to revery back to the veg cycle. I do have a question for you or anyone who can answer it as far as curing goes. I have them in jars right now and i am burping them ( opening the cover to let them air out for about 15-30 minutes a day ) and my question is how long should i be doing this for until I can just seal the cover on for good or will i have to burp them everyday?

This one is for you guys and thx everyone who has helped me along the way :joint:

Yeah heavy
Of course if you ever see a trace of moisture on the sides of the jar, keep burpin 'em. I usually hang dry the plant for 7-10 days. Then trimmed and into jars burp daily 15-30 minutes once a day for 2 weeks. Then I burp once a week for 2 weeks. Then I close up the jars. If I'm flush with weed and don't expect to open the jars to snag a bud I check them for that funky rot aroma once a week for another 2 weeks. After that they're closed up and stored in a cool dark place.

Some folks will get mold unless they daily burp a bit longer. This seems to work for me - knock wood no rot on curing buds yet...
