Will do. I usually trim big fan leaves when I first chop but this year I have been leaving some on cause it makes for a slower dry. The Gorilla zkittles went purple and 7 foot jumbos.

So I've heard of the "bud wash" which I don't really get but I think patting them down a bit with a towel sounds like a good idea. Gonna go out in the rain and do some chopping. I got tahoe OG kush and Gorilla zkittles waiting :)

So I planned to do a harvest today, Sunday. But this is the 8th week in a row of rain. I would wait it out a week or so but we will be getting frost most likely on the east coast where I am. Can I chop down in the rain and hang the few plants near a semi warm environment(boiler) to dry out and...
All good points. The outdoor farming horse manure is really good. Really Good! I have a good source of it too. Led's indoors sit pretty close to the tops- I'd say 6-8 inches distance. I actually use fox farm during repro stage on the outdoor plants to get them the notes they need. I use what i...
Indoors I'm running two led's. Run autos mostly on 18 hours. Using fox farm nutes indoors. Outdoors I've got plenty of sun, southern exposure using 5 gal buckets with horse manure, milorganite, touch of lime to lower manure PH. High "N" during veg stage with increase of P/K during flowering as...
So all the budsI've harvested, indoors or outdoors, dirt or hydro are light and fluffy and not dense like what is out there on the market. I know a lot of bud is vacuum packed which would condense buds but I wonder what I could be missing. I change my chemicals as weeks tick off and plant goes...
So in New England area we have had more rain then I EVER remember. My girls are semi-ok considering the deluge of rain (some small bud rot that I will clean out ASAP). My trichomes are ready to harvest but it's been raining. Is it ok to harvest when a little wet? I do a 1st phase trim when I...
My thought was the roots get more oxygen in the hydro vs soil setup...thus bigger and better roots leading to more uptake to help the plants produce more product.

I get what is being said. As a senior gardener at 57, I've actually been gardening since high school. Regular gardening that is. I have a big vegetable today garden and made my own Raspberry farm. I make awesome jam!!! Good for the munchies. I used to take care of country homes for rich people...
All great points. My well water PH has always been spot on for gardening. Under 7.0 always, usually around 6.4 ish. A DO use an aquarium air pump. Did not know they make "hot" air which combined with the heat wave that hit could've been the tilting point. I have calibrated my PH meter (with...
