Top 44 from seed

[Guest]

Aint it nice to have GOOD herb thats come form your own hands?
Hope your harvests bring you a very nice smoke.

In regards to flushing, i usually flush seriously for the last 10 days or so.

I flush once or twice during veg aswell.

Its all personal preference at the end of the day. Alot of peeps do it differently.\

had issues with the camera last night. Heres some pics I just snapped.

The pics don't really do them justice. They are frosty

not to much longer. less than 2 weeks (more than likely) till I start harvesting. can't wait to sample this shit. Im thinking Ill cut a lower bud in 5 days or so for a small sample Can't wait to smoke my own buds.

leeroy- you know it man. can't wait to smoke some of my own bud.

ezozo- thanks, and your right I am very excited to try them. If they take longer thats fine. From what Ive been told its around a 50 day strain. Heres the thing though,I had alot of phenos. So who knows if the people I talked to had the same phenos that I do. Only thing I can do is check the trichs. When I say I think they have a certain amount of time left, its just an estimate. This is my first time flowering so I don't really know what to expect.



I just hope they fatten up a bit. and if they want to get a bit more frosty I have no objections

looking good!!!

looking good!!!

chomping at the bit, eh hehhelol.

Looks like another couple weeks though & 3-5 days drying minimum. Your patience will be amply rewarded.

My puter's been down for a while, but I'm up & running again with a spankin new hard drive.

peace,

Nice to hear from ya dezer. Do they look OK? To me they look small, but I don't really know what I should be expecting, or how much fatter they are going to get in the next couple of weeks.

I need to get a new hardrive myself. Did you get an external HD?

I plan to take one small sample at 45 days from the plant that looks the most ready based on trichs. Then a small sample at harvest, which could be over the course of a few days since I have different phenos. I want to give them at least a 2 week cure before I dig in. Its gonna be tuff though.

 

[Guest]

G.O.G,youll love what you see.The last 2 weeks or so they will get fatter n start to pack on alot more trichs.I had a plant that i wanted to pick around 53 days.It was from a friend,who told me 2 let it go 63 days b4 pickin .I did,and in them last 10 days it looked like it put on some weight.I mean u could really notice the difference in size in just that last little bit of time.Good luck.p.s.-I know how you feel wanting 2 smoke yur own buds.For some reason it always tastes better and is better when u make yur own!

 

[pheen]

without reading all 10 pages are they flowering for rufly 44 days?
the buds look good man.

 

[gift of gab]

dances- thats what I like to hear. I can already notice a difference every couple of days.

pheen- thanks, and today is day 38 of 12/12.


I fed them today, haven't decided if it will be their last feeding or if I will give them one more. I did decide to use the PB only from now on, so no more chemicals for these ladies.

I water every 4 days and feed every other watering.



I can tell you one thing already, I am very impressed with the trich production, and will more then likely be doing a full clone run of my favorite pheno. From the amount of trichs present already, and knowing that my buds will get a cure, Im becoming more and more confidant that my buds are going to be better than the $50-$60 an 1/8th/$300-$350 and ounce buds in my area. I love this hobby, just think of the money you save, and the quality of smoke you are blessed with.

can't wait till mid November

EDIT:
the 2 pics of my fattest cola have dissapeared Oh well Ill just have to take some more sooner I guess.

 

[Guest]

Damn straight buddy, growing your own fine buds.
Christmas is going to be a smokefest!

 

[pheen]

[gift of gab]

leeroy- regardless how much it snows this year, its gonna be a white christmas

41 days 12/12

41 days 12/12

pic 1- crappy pic of the indica pheno. As you can see its the largest and looking to be the best producer.

pic 2- plant 2

pic 3- last plant

so far its a toss up for trich production between 2 and 3. OMG they are sticky. I cut a lower branch from plants 1 and 2. I know its early but I don't care. Hope they get me high One thing is for sure, they are frosty.

Tomorrow Ive got to get a microscope of some sort. The hairs are starting to turn, I hope they start to finish soon.


the pics turned out horrible today. Sorry, but I never claim to be a photographer

thanks guys, I actually picked up one of those radioshack 60-100x microscopes on my way home today.


Ive decided against any more feedings. Tonight they will get a plain watering as scheduled, then in 3-4 more days I will start flushing them.

The trichs are just starting to get cloudy, probably around 20% at this point. How long till they start to go amber? I plan to pick them when the trichs are 1/4 to 1/2 amber, that should get me the heaviest stone right? BTW I just checked the trichs on the lower branches I cut last night. What part of the plant should I check or just all over?

I picked up a scale today too. The buds I cut last night weigh right around a half oz wet. It looks like about an 1/8th, Im curious to see what it dries to. I trimmed the buds last night and have them in paper bags to dry. Since Im in a pretty dry area, I decided to go straight to the bags instead of hanging, in an attempt to lengthen the process. If I just hung them they would be dry in a couple days, with the bags it should take a week or so Im hoping. then a week cure and its off to the races. I got a 1/4 last night, hopefully between the buds I just got and the buds I cut last night I can hold myself over until the colas are ready for consumtion (guessing about 2 weeks after harvest). Of course I have no idea how much longer they are going to take so it could be over a month until I get to try the colas.
