Opar’s First Grow: Blue Dream & Bubba Kush 2.0, 2019

[Opar]

Have you flushed it? A flush will remove salts from the root area and when you feed it right after, the flush will make nutes more available to the plant. Folks do it around 2 weeks before the end. Maybe she's got a salt buildup?

Hey, great idea @stoneotter , I have not. I haven’t noticed any deficiencies or toxicities..... and I generally do have some run off on each watering, but perhaps a flush is in order.... I’ll have to track down a shopvac

Good. You wouldn't notice anything necessarily and haven't done anything wrong. Just the nutes leaving salt residue. Some have very notable results. Shouldn't hurt. At the end of fresh water flush, give the normal nutes they were on so they can thrive. Continued right to the chop day. That's the relatively new scientific approach to flushing as I read it. Regretfully I don't have the link to the science on hand for you.

ill

Damn! I love that word!

 

[Opar]

It’s a jungle in there! Going to need help come trim time....

 

[Sparkey224]

That looks awesome in there opar. Great looking quality with some serious weight. Great bud to leaf ratio. You are killing it dude

 

[Opar]

Thanks Sparkey! I appreciate it! Can’t wait to trim it up and get the bubble machine going.....

Fine tent Opar! Do you fire the Bubble machine often? I got one and can't wait to make my inicial run.

Thanks stoneotter! I’ve used it twice so far. I gotta admit I’m not a fan of the work,and can’t help but wonder at the quantity of the yield (didn’t seem like much), but I have a feeling these plants will yield much better for me (seem frostier).

Soon for me.

Awesome, only tip I got is keeping the bags as clean as possible, they gum up quickly and make it a pain to strain

I've been watching Frenchy Cannoli. Have you seen his vids? Frenchy Cannoli Bubble Hash & Temple Balls

 

[Opar]

Yes I watched a little before, but thanks for posting the link, after my 2 tries, I’m getting a lot more out of them

There's a lot to it for a simple thing. I have to get a good day or 2 soon.

Cutting the bucket tops and stacking them is brilliant. I was super worried about losing trichs off the bottom of the bag, as they were nested to tight together, the tops as separators I’ll be doing next run for sure. I’m going to harvest my one plant soon, next few days I think. Maybe I defoliate too much, not expecting much trim... speaking of which, you guys ever use that bowl trimmer? Scares the sh*t out of me....

 

[StoneOtter]

Yeah, the buckets and a pretty good flow of water. Oh man! How about drying? He is serious about getting it fine and separated to dry. I don't have the space. My batches have been small so far and I haven't hot rolled any either.

 

[Opar]

Going to chop my one plant, not sure what it is, because my labelling got messed up haha... but I’m thinking she’s sapphire og. Small pot, once a day watering is not keeping up with her, she’s not improving, and there is some amber so down she comes, rest should be next week or latest week after... day 58 from flip.

Have a choppy day!

 

[Silverfox125]

Good job opar. Sounds like a wonderful strain.

 

[Opar]

Well, I am surprised at the harvest... I was expecting far less. I had no time to trim so I just cut it down and threw it into the mesh hanging thing to dry it all... I’ll do a trim in a few days and then finish and cure... can’t wait! So fragrant !

hope this turns out!

 

[Opar]

On another note.... I have a few plants in a tent, and they all used to drink water a ton. First thing in the morning. But now the morning feeding pools at the top, and takes forever to seep in..... it’s really strange.... and it runs off much quicker, so it’s like the plants aren’t drinking... can a lock out cause the plant not to hydrate?
