Harvest day.

Harvest day.

Damn Me and my boy been Snippen All day!

There's a ton here! there's alot of crystals, from far away it makes the bud kinda look purpley, but when you get up close, lots of trics.

I am happy so far, lets see what it weighs in a week.

The little silver tray and the garbage bag box is the fluffy lighter stuff that was below the canopy. The basket and big bin are all dank ass buds. Don't get me wrong the other ones are sure smokable!! 4 boxes of bud total!

Thanks Brother, i am just Glad I only have a few more photos to take! I post 12-15 each time but I take like 30.

Now I have been posting this thread since 1-30 thats 17 weeks!! 30 * 17 = 510 shots.

I need a break. But once I get my mother plant pumped up I am gonna cut some more clones and veg up some beasts. I got some killer Ideas to make my grow even sicker!!I will start up a new thread for it. I know I am gonna beat whatever GPW I end up getting with this harvest. Glad to see this part of the system works so far!

Thanks everyone! Yeah they ain't dry yet so please hold for the weight n smoke report. The plants went 11 weeks, I am sure I coulda went 12 but they were at a nice happy medium.

So I did this grow with 1 126 watt HGL Penetrator.

Now I just made a new bracket n shit, damn its a beast. 254 watts of power. Seems like about the limit for me, my grow yo's, and the light mover I have lol!! but seeing it in action is a thing of beauty. There's no trim around the long sides just feather boa. then the wide sides each have a 2" piece. I left about 3/4 of an inch between the 2 units.

Basically just mounted some eye hole studs in the factory hang bolt holes. then just made my own bracket out of some 3/4" aluminum L bracket.

Fair play Buddy L:eek:oks Good,
I hope you get your weight out of it, after all the hard work you put into this one Mean!
What you expecting 8-10oz or more? Looks different to mine & i think its gonna taste better to look at it,. its defo friuty skunk though, seems to be the whole theme with this strain, the slightly Fruity Sour Pheno i had smoked the best, ill be real interested to hear your report! Good Luck with it all & its nice to see your keeping the strain. Hope shes a killer for you bro!
Peace & Respect........Scroger! ;)

Thanks Hoot. Just checked on the bud, They lost most of the water already. I would say by Wednesday for sure they will be nice n crispy. Then I weigh them post the amount n then get smokin!!

Also just as a note on the bigger light setup 252w. I already got some dp Oasis cuts growing under the new setup, adding the second penetrator rasied the temp 8-9 degrees from what it was. My cab was at 72-74 when the light was on that side. now it looks to be at 81-82. I am glad because I am pretty sure buds grow a bit more aggressive in a slightly higher temp than 74 when under LED's. If not I guess I'll turn the exhaust fan up, but I really like the stealthyness of it all and that's the loudest part, the 4" exhaust fan. Still can't here shit with it up the whole way unless your ear is freaking on the wall like a seashell effect, I coated the pipes pathway with concrete board "stuff for behind tile"
