Looking good even with the b.r. hoping yer yield is superThey are! Ied myself in the forehead with a bud when watering this morning and was surprised by its density.
Thanks BL! I've been spraying it with BT every 3 days or so in an attempt to get it to harvest without too much new rot.
Hey Shed I got a question for you, I checked out your thread about supercropping. What I’m wondering was if it’s too late once flowering begins? Maybe you could look at my Temple Kush give me your thoughts. Thanks CLThanks Carcass! Some of my biggest harvests were on plants with the most botrytis.
Thanks N! One of the biggest flowers on the TW actually supercropped the stem.
Thank you Captain!
I'd need a link to spot your Temple Kush, but I will generally supercrop all the way up to the end of stretch.
Thank you double H! I'm looking forwarding to harvesting with no further major issues.
So I can have my and cake and smoke it too?
Sure! Eat it Smoke it! Cake is good!
I like cake
too.lol
Wow 2 days only, how hot is it where your growing? Looking very niceMonday greetings all! Not much happening here and I'm not one to post daily updates on the same plants, but it's been a while so I thought I'd do an update on the Summer grow, flip day 55.
I've been giving them each a gallon/day pretty much all through flower, and I wanted to see what would happen if I waited for the pots to feel light again. So I watered on Friday afternoon and then skipped Saturday and Sunday.
I didn't do a measured leaf wilt angle (LWA) test, but I can tell you just from looking at them that they are beyond a 50% change in LWA and it hasn't even been that hot. So much for trying to reach 11 days outside!
Here is the Purple Urkle looking thirsty:
And one of the top flowers:
Here is the Trainwreck looking thirsty:
And one of its top flowers:
They each got 1.5 gallons this morning so I'll see how the recovery goes, and I'll get an idea of how quickly they're drinking in terms of harvest timing. Also, the heat is supposed to be ratcheting back up later this week, which should make them thirstier.
And interestingly enough, even though they're both in the early indoor harvest window (@Weed Seeds Express has the Trainwreck at 56 - 63 days and the Purple Urkle seems to be 55 - 60 days), I'm not tired of looking at them yet!
Thanks for coming by for a visit.
Thanks Grateful! Considering the root aphids and the heat and the possible overabundance of magnesium, they don't look anywhere near as awful as they could.
The work is just part of my morning routine since I've done it practically 365 days a year for the past 4+ years. But at some point I just get sick of looking at them! Maybe when I start up outside again in the spring I'll do a shorter veg and turn them over a bit faster.
Thank you Carmen! I want to spread it over two different weekends so I wonder if this weekend one of them will tell me it's done.
Thanks Captain! It wasn't that hot this past weekend, highs in the high 70s maybe? They are probably close to rootbound though after 153 days above ground and in these 7 gallon pots for close to 100 days. I want to do a rootopsy after harvest to see if I can spot aphid damage, so I'll know then.
That makes sense. Let's hope you have one ready to get the chop this weekend. Do yours hang for about a week before jarring, Shed?
That should be interesting. Good plan!
I try to hang for as close to 7 days as the weather will allow. But when the stems almost snap when they bend I cut the buds off and put them in turkey roasting bags for burping. I don't usually jar for the cure until 21 days post chop to allow for as much chlorophyll to "burn off" as possible.
Why do they burp better in turkey bags than jars, Shed? Yes, I'd be very interested to see your journal of the post-harvest stuff.
