for the link and excellent cover on the clones!

Never understood the reason for backbuilding on a home grow since it's just for bag appeal, but it's a fun experiment.

Nice frost, but all I kept wondering is where the Rakuten logo came from! Your shirt?

Coming down the home stretch. I plan to harvest all 5 plants at the same time, so I'll wait until the last one is fully ripened. We mostly consume for pain relief and sleep aid so we'll be fine with more of a couch lock.

You'll see some damaged leaves in the photos. I think I am still battling mites and deployed more of the good guys. Also, you may notice in the nutrients lineup that I've switched back to a sterile reservoir. When I changed it out today if was full of sludge so I'm sure I mixed the beneficials improperly.

Even with the scope it's hard to see what these things are.

These buds be stacking...I know...trim jail for me

Beautiful canopy and I'm sure you will be vanishing into trim jail for quite some time if you're taking them all down at once!

I think I am still battling mites and deployed more of the good guys.

Looks more nute, pH, or wind related than mites. Mites would be lots of tiny white spots rather than large blotches.

I suspected the mites because of the holes in the leaves. I do have pretty strong fans going so could well be wind damage.

I keep hoping to get time to trim them up but it just hasn't worked out that way

 

[stardawg17]

Well...I don't think this is the droughting technique @Krissi Carbone has been promoting. Guess I'm about to find out what happens when you pass the 50 degree wilt point

Apparently the irrigation line plugged up. Compare to just 4 days ago...

It looks like they were possibly at the 50% mark then. Guess I know to pay closer attention. The Lord giveth...the Lord taketh away.

 

[stardawg17]

Can you tell which feed line had an issue?

This is why it's good to grow more than 1 pant

 

[Krissi Carbone]

Oh no Dawg! I'm sure she will perk right back up once that line is fixed, friend!!!

I fixed the line last night and the line on NL3 was dripping slow so it got replaced too. PQ1 was still droopy this morning but lights go out 5am so kinda expected. Unfortunately I'll be out of town until Sunday night so prayers and good vibes will have to do

I expect a great recovery and a successful trip!

Thanks Shed...IDK about the recovery but I came in at 139 in a 1100 player tournament, so I call that a success

and

( is what you get when you type : congratulations : without the spaces between. Somehow seems underwhelming!)

It looks like she's gonna pull through

These past couple of weeks have been a rough since we got called back into the office. Unfortunately, the girls have been neglected as a result. I didn't get to change the reservoir this week...I just kept adding just enough RO water to keep the pumps from sucking air.

Tomorrow I'm planning on a full day in the lab and I'll do a proper change then. According to the breeder I should be harvesting the Northern LIghts tonight, but, the trichomes tell a different story. Tomorrow I should be able to post a proper update. For now, here's the trim job on NL3.

Sauga View

Collected the larf off the bottom. I can't help but think that the trichs in these little buds contain CBG...so I think I'll collect them and maybe make some oil from them.

 

[InTheShed]

Looks like neglect isn't doing much damage but I hope you get to spend a bit more time with them!

I doubt there's CBG in that larf since I believe it's converted to THC earlier in the flowering process.
