TBE Indoor LED Black Indica Nov 18

[thebigearl]

Day 7 since switch.
Watered this morning, last water was Monday so they were pretty dry.
Ph 6.3 and 6ml calmag per gallon only for this water. Each plant got 4 litres, as usual.
They've stretched any where from 3 inches to 5 inches in the 7 days.
I've also been spraying the colloidal silver on one branch 2x a day. (morning & night)

Nice stretch! Oh, I just had a thought to pass on because I was reminded by the pretty little pistil pic. Van Stank uses a paintbrush and applies pollen just to those pistils and ends up with loads of seeds, and the rest of the plant is still perfectly good unseeded bud...sensimilla .

That’s super interesting Shed

Looking good Earl, just went into flower myself

That too is my plan when /if I do get pollen!

Looking great TBE! Hope you get some pollen and look forward to some seed makin

Thanks Dutch,
Any of you guys defol during flower?
My ladies are bushy as all hell again, and they need a trim. I like clean ladies.
Should I wait another week as to not distract them or just go for it?
Opinions welcome!
Today is day 8 since the switch.
Cheers!

Most folks defol before flip and then again after stretch is over so you can see the final structure of the plant, and which leaders made the canopy and which can be used for clones .

 

[thebigearl]

Thanks Shed, Works for me!
I did defol about 5 days before the switch, but a few of these gals just fill in the open areas!
I've got a cardboard box full of fan leaves and lower branches from the few times I trimmed em, it's crazy.

 

[InTheShed]

Save 'em for canna-oil edibles! Mild but worth it.

 

[thebigearl]

Not much to report but I load up some pics from the weekend.
Watering Tuesdays after work and Saturdays late morning, seems to be in a rhythm now.
Humidity I have stabilized at 45-50 %
Lights on temp of 25.5c and lights off 18-19c.
Happy and healthy!

Out standing!

Day 20 flower.
Been watching this one branch on #4 for a while, quite interesting.

[InTheShed]

Got the dog and the kid to keep you company...nice . Plants look great! Is that one of those superbranches where a few merge and combine into one? How far down did they join up? That could be a massive cola with all that sugar supply, or not because the plant doesn't know what to do with it. Time will tell!

 

[thebigearl]

It's been Single branch far as I can tell. This is the plant that has shown a few deformaties since birth.
Definitely excited to see what it becomes!

 

[InTheShed]

Looks like the first or second node! Crazy

Can't wait to see what it turns into...

 

[thebigearl]

4 weeks down. Moving along nicely. No concerns yet.
Still on same water schedule, seems just right. Saturday mornings and Tuesday after dinner.
4 litres of water with 8ml calmag + 6ml Bloom. Each plant.
Today I bumped up to 10ml Bloom.
Ph'ing the water between 6.3-6.8
Temp with lights on 25c
Temp with lights off 17-18c
RH 40-55%
Lights are really close, and they like it.
I gave up on the colloidal silver spray, didn't seem to be working. I'll try again next grow perhaps.
The blurples are from last week.

Tent look terrific Earl! Beez0404 had a thread on CS and he used a paintbrush. Not quite as hard on the plant and easier to control where it goes. He paints one stem from node to node 2x a day. Thread is here:

5 weeks down. The stink is strong now! Mmmm, soooo good!
Got a couple projects underway, a new "tent" and a led light build. Waiting for delivery on that yet.

 

[Dutchman1990]

Looking fantastic over here earl! Nice new grow box build! Can’t wait to see it all setup

What kind of led are you building??
