Some nug shots from today. Nem and 2.0. The leaf is my pp x gluetang cross and it's looking very sativa ish. I also did some stripping on the 2nd tray. Now I've gotta figure out a way to get another tray in there for all the extra plants on my veg table.

The 3 in the first tray hit 40 today. Tried making some rosin with dry sift but I think I'm using the wrong bags. Machine cam with 120s and I think I may have pressed it too long. Product smelled burnt.

Looking great in here. What is the biggest difference good or bad, that you see in the lighting switch so far?


I've been contemplating getting a press too but jm no help on how to use it.

So far on the light, I've noticed that I'm able to keep it about the same distance as I was with cmh but the plants seem a little more leggy and needing support. I've definitely noticed more of a stretch. And that was with the light 12 to 18 inches above. Havent noticed any bleaching at the 12 inches like I would have with cmh and they plants are nice and green. I do think bud size looks to be comparable with what I was getting from cmh. They're nice and solid so there's that.

Flower room shots today. First tray 41 days in and filling in nicely. Second at 24 days and budding nicely. They're throwing frost already which is always a good sign.

Shot of the nursery chugging along. Next to cycles are already planned and vegging. As soon as the 3 come out I've got 9 going right in in 2 gallons. Then once tray 2 comes out it'll be 10 sherbtinis and 5 mimosa going in in 1 gallons.

So far I'm liking the led. Capability to run 2 trays with less wattage than 2 1k or 2 cmh. The nugs I think have filled in comparably. Tray 1 at 44 days, tray2 at 26

Can anyone take a guess what deficency is in all of these pictures? I see plants grown like this all over icmag but no one has an answer or ignores there is a problem. Your yields look low because of whatever is going on. Telltale for me because the buds look underdeveloped, as if they cannot continue stacking as they should. Leaves and sugar leaves in particular change texture to plastic-like - note blistering. Also, early browning of pistils. Fan leaf tip browning and seratted edge browning. You just will not see fat, swollen, stacked buds; regardless of strain, the plant will not properly stack + swell to finish. The end product often has a hay taste, low general terpenes, less than optimal gland coverage, bud has different texture than dank bud.. dry(?), poor yields. It is on the road to what people term "dud". You see the shift happen a few weeks into flower.

I see this same issue or lockout, whatever all over the icmag.

I do not think it's underfeeding. You have same great stuff. More dialing and addressing whatever that is and you'll be golden.

For me it was a root pathogen killing roots. Your roots look great. Interesting..

So I don't think my yield will be low. There 3 plants in 2 gallon pots of coco. The stardawg will probably be 4 to 8 oz. The top buds are all popcan sized and the lowers are very solid. The other 2 at least 2 to 3 per. I'd say that's not bad from 2 gallon pots. It really is underfeeding on the stardawg and a bit of overfert for the other 2. They seem to be stacking just fine. The nugs are solid all the way down the plants. The pistol browning was me touching the nugs or brushing up against them.
