These widows are giving off a strong lovely fragrance already.

Sorry I'm late but it looks like I'm right in time for the fuzzy part!

Never to late to join a journal!

Right now in the growroom the plants are all in different stages so it's keeping me busy.

WWs are a min 4 weeks from harvest but no more than 6 weeks. I should also mention I changed the light to full bloom last night.

SC is a 7-9 week flower just starting to show mini hairs out of preflowers. Im hoping she starts to flower in a few weeks.

RC is just starting it's journey day 19 from seed. It will be topped a few more times before hitting the flower room. Then it has a 9-11 week flower.

Then comes my next two seeds. Not sure which ones I should plant.

 

[Greensmurf420]

We will start this update with RC

Followed by SC

And last but not least the widows.
Here is Widow 1

Tiny little Widow 2

And finally Widow 3

 

[Greensmurf420]

Well it's been a couple days and everything is going well. The widows are putting on more weight and more trichomes are covering their leaves every day. SC is starting to produce more hairs and looks great. I'm interested in seeing how she will grow during flower. RC is taking to the topping well. It will be a few more days until I start the tie down process.

Here a pic of a ww3 branch loaded with trichomes.

Ooooooooooh. Is that a trick of the light or are the top pistils pink? So pretty!

Thanks for checking in. I do believe that the red led bulbs are giving the illusion of pink. very pretty!

Thank you, The widows that are currently growing are from my own seed stock. I originally bought regular seeds from Nirvana Seeds Co. a few years ago. I grew a male widow and female Widow then pollinated 1 branch of the female. Would that make me the breeder? Idk... the 3 widows are about 3 1/2 ft tall at the moment. I'm 5'6" and the top colas are right about at my nose. The perfect for height for me becasue when I open my cabinet that wonderful aroma is right there waiting for me. I'm hoping they will be ready for harvest in about 3 weeks time but I have a feeling it may be longer.

So this weekend just brought up a great question for my grow. What to US growers do when we have to adjust the clocks back or advance forward? Do you also adjust the light timers or let them be?

I just let mine be. It doesn't change anything for me by coming on an hour earlier. I will admit though that a small OCD part of me knows the clock is wrong and wants to fix it. However, as of now my lazy part is winning.

The ocd in me as well wanted to change the clock on the timers but I did resist the urge. Was curious if anyone else was thinking about this and thought hey if nobody else brings it up I may as well ask.

So my Swiss Cheese Auto is one bushy lady. Wondering if I should do a major defoil or let her be...

And took off the last main fan leaves off the RC today.

 

[Greensmurf420]

Res change day and having the widows out of the cabinet for an hour really filled up the house with their wonderful aroma.

Swiss Cheese received week 7s' line up so that means it just got its 1st dose of beasty bloomz.

RC received week 4s' line up and is now being introduced to open sesame.

All plants are looking healthy and green. I'm not seeing any nanners on the ww1 branch yet and I stopped spraying awhile ago. I think this cs experiment maybe a bust for this round idk time will tell. The cs I was using is 30ppm and from what I see others are using 50ppm. I'm not going to give up on cs. I will be ordering a bottle of 50ppm for a future round.

Well that's all for now pics will be up a little later on

 

[Greensmurf420]

As promised here are a few pics.

Widows are budding up nicely. My arms get so sticky whenever I go inside and move branches around from all the trichomes they are producing.

SC should be renamed to hydra. Cut 1 leaf off and 2 others grow in its place. I'm impressed with the overall growth of this plant.

Last but not least here is RC.

I must say that those white widows are looking very nice, wish I had some of those seeds. Keep up the good work

Thanks I appreceiate the kind words! They are just ending week 6 of 12/12. Nirvana says 8-10 weeks for this strain but we know thats just a guideline. I honestly thought that they would be a little bit further along than what they are now in terms of bud size. This is probably just me being impatient and wanting my finished product. One thing I've learned from my past grows is that we can't rush these plants along. In the coming weeks were going to see these colas fatten up quite nicely.

I need to swing by your grow and check out that blackberry.

 

[Greensmurf420]

So a little update today.

I removed more fan leaves on the Swiss Cheese. Trying to open her up a little more. I have more branches than I know what to do with. I was thinking of taking a cutting of one of the branches for a clone. I know that cloning autos is not ideal but I plan on using the clone with colloidal silver. I don't have that much space in this little cabinet and the widows still have a few more weeks before I can move Swiss cheese into the flower room. I wonder if I could grow the clone in a 2lt bottle for now?

Swiss Cheese

I also did a lot of work on the Raspberry Cough. I took a lot of fan leaves of this plant today. I also did a whole lot of LST. The picture below is right after I finished laying down all my work.

Raspberry Cough

Last but not least heres some pre-bud porn from the widow room. As always I like show a picture of the main cola on each plant. I hope to create a short progression pictorial after harvest kinda like a time lapse with dry weight and smoke report.

Frosty!

Thanks! Hope all is well in your garden

I just realized it's been a couple days since posting. So im just checking in and keeping the journal up to date.

Widows are at week 8 of 12/12, and range between week 6-7 of flower.

Swiss Cheese Auto is week 9 from seed. Throwing hairs all over but no real bud development. Growing under 18/6.

Raspberry Cough is week 5.5 from seed. I havent updated with pics since the LST job I did but it has adjusted well. I plan on putting in a few more ties this week.

WW1 looks amazing she doent look like she will be a heavy producer in terms of yield however the nugs look top shelf. It's been so long since my last successful harvest, I forget how much swelling I can expect. WW3 is looking like it's a week behind in development compared to WW1 but looks like it will pull similar a yield. WW2 should have been pulled long ago but I kept it going. It is more of a pain to keep her but she has survived this long. All I'm getting off that ww2 is one nice size top nug.
