I'm glad I tried that cracked seed- it was the worst looking of the whole bunch- it actually looked like it'd been stepped on...it almost went straight to the trash can...
Thanks, Beez! It's been postponed till tomorrow- I've got granddaughter duty this afternoon....
Maybe just send them a reminder? I had to remind 2 sponsors about my potm prizes...
Like they say, the squeaky wheel gets the oil.....
No biggie if she doesn't- she's super healthy, and she's growing buds like a big girl...
That's too bad- all the seeds I got from Dope have sprouted just fine so far- the ones giving me trouble are from Cannapot (Austria)
Yeah- they were sneaking them out before, why can't they sneak them out now?
That makes 2 of us.....
I told @Nev I'd post up a few pics of my trichomes when the IG is ready to harvest- I couldn't seem to get any decent microscope pics, so you may just have to zoom these a bit.
Yesterday, there was very little amber- today, they look ready to harvest (15% amber+)
Annnnd...now I have to wait till tomorrow.....
(sorry the pic quality isn't the best)
So pretty!
What Shed said. Although I could have said it better, using at least a three-syllable adjective. 
Same here. Dope Seeds is great. I've always gotten my orders and prize winnings from them, and their seeds have always produced top-notched plants for me.

Well, today was Harvest Day for the Iced Grapefruit- she was 17" tall, 112 days old, flowered for apx. 8 weeks.
Grown totally under an @Atreum Lighting Hydra-1000 LED (100 watts)
Fed only @GeoFlora Nutrients "Veg", plus a little @Blue Planet Nutrients Calmag Pro, and Easy Weed.
The seed was a gift from my son, @Justin Goody ,apx. a year ago
Here's a final shot of her in the box:
One little thing I noticed last night- she put out a little drop of amber colored "goo"
I think it's called "guttation"
No big deal, I just thought it was interesting...
Now on to the harvest pics-
Restraints removed, ready to get chopped:
And a mere 2 hours later, we're done! (sorry for the blurry pic- I had goo on my fingers...)
All those sticks were holding up the buds:
One of the colas:
On to the drying room- I weighed her, but forgot to get any pics of that- her wet weight is 549g/19.5oz.
So probably looking at apx 5oz. dry (I thought there was more than that, but the scale don't lie...)
She'll hang here for 5 or 6 days (probably 5- it's hot!)
And one more thing- this was a pleasant surprise this morning:
A Gorilla Glue (photoperiod) sprout!- It's from the sad looking seed that was also cracked...
It's not centered in the cup because the other 3 seeds (duds) are also in there.
This one sprouted less than 24 hours after going into the cup, so it wants to grow!
the other 3 are just dead....
And finally...since the box is empty now- these 2 ladies spend the day outside, but then they live in here at night (lights go off 12:00am to 4:00am) so they get an extra apx.10 hours of light per day, which isn't going to hurt anything, since they're both autos...(Amnesia left, Chocodope right)
I'll do this until the GorillaGlue is big enough to have the box to herself..
And that's about all for this update!
Thanks for looking, I really appreciate the support..
I hope everyone has a great weekend!
(tomorrow's lil Nova's day, so I won't be around)

A neatly trimmed beauty Carcass...congratulations on another great harvest! Also, 
for the new sprout.
I love this pic because it looks like an enormous branch that's 8' long and balanced on a small square table:
Have fun with the schlepping!

Congrats on the harvest and on the sprout, Carcass!

It's only about 25 feet farther to schlep them into the box, and the extra light should do them some good- maybe they'll get done sooner (so I can start a couple more...
)Thank You, HashGirl- I'm pretty happy about the sprout- I'd pretty much written those seeds off...
Congrats on the Iced Grapefruit harvest - looks as good hanging as it did growing.
Congrats on the IG harvest, Mr. C. She is one of the prettiest plants (as opposed to Shed's "pretty") that I've ever seen on this forum today.
I hate this pic for the same reason Shed cites and for the fact that I stared at it forever trying to figure out what the hell I was looking at. Please don't make a habit of doing this.
Good morning C She’ll
Great haul and brilliant photography
1,2,3 back to me...
You know the, I don’t know what you call them, actually I think it’s just plant LOL, I’m talking about the seeds we started at approx the same time, oh and gear change, I still refer to them as my seeds when in fact they are day 40 something. But back to my question, there are quite a few grow areas I struggle with and flipping is a big one. Approximately what age do you flip?

Congrats on another brilliant harvest. What a beauty. I'm with GDB I couldn't wrap my head around that photo 
It is a bit late here though and I've been staring at my phone screen for a while.

I'm with Vet and GDB. I didn't know what I was looking at either.

Thanks, Beez! And it still smells like a sweaty armpit...
I can see why, at first glance, you'd go wtf??
Tbh, I didn't notice it looked odd till @InTheShed pointed it out...
Between 45-50 days, so far- like when the plant is half as tall as you want it to get by the end- although
with quad training you need to remember that some of the stretch will be horizontal growth...
If it's a real fast grower, I'd just go by size, and flip earlier, since I've got height limits in the box.
I may start waiting a little longer, (55 days or so...)since my last two plants topped out at 17"...I'd like to get them to apx 24" if possible...(that's the limit in there)
Take a close look at the lower left corner, and you can see my finger- I just held it up and snapped the pic- in retrospect, I should have held it up a little higher...
Thanks, @oldmanjj !Nice work! Looks great
And Thanks for checking out my journal- feel free to stop by whenever you're in the neighborhood!
Lol. I was a little confused by the pic but then saw your finger at the edge. The way it lined up perfectly with the shadow of table legs, etc. Created a curious optical illusion. Well done! 
you gonna do a quick dry and test of the IG? Please? . Then go shopping and dance down the biscuit aisle?

If I'd of tried to do that, it probably wouldn't have worked...
I am- there's a little bud drying on top of the stove as we speak...you gonna do a quick dry and test of the IG? Please?
I'll probably just be glued to the couch for an hour or so..at least I hope so- I'm almost out of my "bedtime weed" (purple punch auto-lasted me almost two years) and I need something mellow and relaxing to take it's place...
I think Purple Lemonade would help with that...and it's a beautiful grow.
And I hope the IG does too. She just looks so dangerously energetic to me! Lol.Similar threads
