Buds are set.

Microgrower,
Stick around till fall. I have plans on firing up my 400 CMH, maybe vertical, in a bigger cab. Just waiting on those cool fall/winter temps. Might be either Mandela Safari Mix or Nirvana Master Kush. Not quite 12 week strains, but the Safari Mix went 10 last time.

Keep it green homies.

So last night my power goes out for almost 4.5 hours during my light cycle. It came back on about an hour before lights out. Stupid fucking weather.

Anyhow, anyone have experience with what is the best course of action. I reset the timer to go off at the normal time and it should be coming back on in a couple of hours. Should I just stay the course or make some adjustments for the 4-5 hours of darkness thrown at her last night.

Shouldn't do any harm since you didn't disturb your dark period.
Nice work again so far mate :)

What Garuda said!

you should be all right if you reset the timer. The absence of light isnt the problem its too much!. i'd add another day to the flower time due to it missing out on almost a half day of growth. otherwise you should be fine. :tiphat:

I topped every shoot except the smallest three, which are now overtaking the topped ones. Seems to control the stretch better.

HAHA! That's what I thought too but my current C99's tripled in height during the stretch this run even after a lot of topping....bet it would have been much worse without the topping though...

Looking great so far on this run Sarge :good:

What's the high from the Citral like?

Day 19 Flower

Day 19 Flower

Did a little top up of the res after 36 holes of disc golf this morning.
She drank almost a gallon in 5 days.
Unfortunately, I'm seeing the tip burn again, even though the EC has been between 0.7 and 0.9 during flower. She sure doesn't like a lot of nutes.
My cab temps have been really low (70-74) since I started running the AC. I'm going to remove the duct muffler and install my POS odor sock on the end of the fan to drop the cfms and raise the temps into the 80's
Maybe another week of stretch. I'm letting her get closer to the lights this round, with less training.

Y'all have a great memorial day weekend. I got mine off to a good start with a 9 under on the second 18.:jump:

sarge -

the tip burn might be from the plant drinking the water and the ppm spiking. i would try to keep the optimum amount of water in it constantly. other wise it doesn't look bad at all the very tips of the leaves and it doesn't look to have progressed to the serrations... i wouldn't worry too much. i wanted to say that the size of the nuggets on this plant look much larger at this stage of game compared to last time. i love being able to compare photos.

im blazin bong loads of haze getting space cadety then out for dinner at my favorite hole in the wall. Have a great time this weekend.

keep em green.

K+ for bong blazing, Hazy.
Typically, the EC has been dropping as the res level drops.
I'll try to keep the res topped up and do weekly changes to see if that helps.
Cheers

Hey Disco, Chomp and MJ,
Thanks for stopping by.
I did a res change on 5/31 and was blown away by the brick shaped root mass packing the tub. There was even a nice indentation in the middle of the brick where the round airstone sits. I should have taken a picture but the camera battery was charging. Buds are noticably more developed than last time as well.
I've been able to keep the cab temps between 80 and 84, lights on, and my res temp is staying between 66 and 70, since the addition of the Odor Sock. I've got pretty high RH at lights off, approaching 80%, but it drops to 50% with lights on.
I dont know if these changes are the reason for a better looking plant, but I'm sure getting the cab dialed in doesn't hurt. Now, if I could just get the nutes dialed in and quit burning her once flowering starts.
