There we go 58 flower

Trich

Decided to lower my lights. Apparently had them too high. Canopy @ about 40k lux. I'll gradually go-to 60 to 70k and monitor results.

They look close but definitely worth waiting a bit longer.
I'm sure mine put on about 10% weight in the last week.
You got some fat nugs in there buddy

Yeah for sure going to wait atleast another week. You were definitely right. Glad I got a new light over seedlings though. Now I can wait this out.

 

[Silverfox125]

I agree. One more week should really help finish them off

So I'm going to be checking trichomes everyday from here on out. I'm ready to cut down whatever plant that is ready. This will be my dry box. I'll cover it with plastic lining then a cotton sheet over that. It'll have two port holes on each side. Small fan circulating air.

Have u hit that 60k or 70k lux reading????

Yes the main area of the plants are sitting at about 70k lux. The rest around 30-50k @StonerWunSimba

Edit: with these lights (BudgetLED) I can't go closer than about 10 inches from canopy before it starts reading over 100k. My viparspar veg light is a blurple so the lux meter won't read it properly. Par meters work for blurple though.

Peyote critical

Blue dream

I made seperate posts for my own reference. I think the peyote critical could prob be chopped. Sorry the pics aren't better there's not much room to work

Plant 2

 

[Silverfox125]

Id agree with you. Peyote critical looks ready. Blue dream may be. Up to you. The rest I’d let go a little longer

Whoa that's a huge kick out!!! Viparspar is gonna be my next budget light to add with this bloomspect I'm working with!!! I'm trying to learn more about lux and pars

 

[Havocsm1]

The issue I'm having with the blue dream is it's really leafy and some of those Amber could be on the sugar leaves.

 

[Silverfox125]

It’s always a tough decision. I like to make sure all the clear is gone. Looking good. You’re close now

Same. I'm no pro but I'm learning. Lux measures how bright the light is. Not it's actual intensity. You can get a good idea though because usually where it's brightest it's most intense.

Here's the plan: were gonna for sure chop peyote Saturday. I'll double check blue dream. I'll cut off sugar leaves and get a good shot. I may even do that now. Either way I'm harvesting atleast the peyote between now and Saturday.
