Damn those are some frosty buds!

Don't change a thing!

Damn those are some frosty buds!

I didn't expect the tropical sativa to frost up like this. A great surprise.

Don't change a thing!

Not much to do now. I'm still keeping the PH between 6.0-6.5. Other than that just tap water top ups, and cool nights.

Project I'm working on in the grow area. Future mount area of CO2 Controller as well as a strong place to secure the CO2 bottle and regulator. The wall board will also be used to mount things currently on cinder blocks, on the floor. I'll be putting wall mounted boards up throughout, to make mounting things simpler.

Big sheet of wood painted with flat white ceiling paint, hard mounted to wall. Board will be used to mount the CO2 Controller and to secure the CO2 bottle, from the clumsy grower. I'll also mount the air pump, and try to come up with a cable routing system too, keeping things tidy.

Beautiful

Beautiful

They look like they're just covered with ice crystals, the way they look under the lights.

Colombian Gold
Day 82 since flip.

The grow area is running normally.

Day four of PHed water.

They are drinking but not a lot.

The flowers continue to finish.

Now have the CO2 controller. Even though it won't be in use till spring 2024, I had to plug in, at the grow area. It showed 400 something and continued to rise to 600 something, with me in the room. Numbers in parts per million ppm.

CO2 controller, tank, and board to mount things too. Regulator delivery still a week out. Won't be in use till spring.

CO2 controller powered up and giving me the ambient CO2 levels at the sensor. It went to 600 something pretty quick with me in the space.

Looks like you’re getting all automated brother. CL.

 

[gwhunran]

Great flowers!

Thanks Stone, They're looking and smelling good. I've got tester that's just now dry, that I'll post a picture of, in a moment. I think there may be some gold color in the cure.

I'm about as automated as I can be. I don't have sensors measuring the reservoir, and I still have to hold the hose and eyeball my reservoir top ups. Not having a sensors, I have to test the PH. Heck, I'm still using a flip phone and do all my interneting on the laptop. I got a good one though. Finally got a large solid state harddrive, no more spinning platters.

The grow area is running normally.

We're back on cool nights, so the grow area is getting down to inkbird's heat turn on setting.

5 days of straight water.

The flowers are in the final stretch of ripening.

I forgot to post the tester photo. It already smells nice.

Tester bud from a few days ago. It's dry and smells nice already. I'm thinking there might be a little gold in this cure.

Looked like a wheel of cheese

Looked like a wheel of cheese

Fortune cookie at hand. Everyone knows how big they are, right?

The bud is actually four pieces. A small top spear and four lower buds on the same stalk, that were cut off. I carried them loosely in my hand, to a spot with sunlight. And they just stayed stuck together, so I left them that way.
