Twox - Birthday Cake - Purple Urkle - BlackBerry - A Reveg & More

Love that diy drying rack. Are you blowing air in or exhausting out? I may have to do something similar.

Thanx, It Actually works really well.
The drying tub is using a passive intake covered in cheese cloth to stop unwanted fuzz and hairs getting on my buds. The ducting is connected to the tents intake and exhausts air out of the tub with suction from the inline fan. I cut both the intake and exhaust out of the lid so the buds don't really get air blown on them but it keeps the humidity down. You could probably just use a box but I wanted something big to fit up to 6 plants and to be honest I think it will only hold 5. I'm actually done drying now so I'll have some pics up later with some weights.. I'm aiming for a half pound a month and I think I hit my mark this time with these ladies...
 
Flowering Tent update, Day 40.
And they're off.... Everything should start bulking up here soon as I hit week 6. I'm noticing some thrip marks on some of my leaves so I hit the 6 new VCOG with some captain Jacks dead bug and I think I might sponge some on the other 6, I don't really want to spray them thus late into flowering so I'll get it under control soon. Besides that Everything's fine and dandy.

Blackberry OG.
She's much bigger than my first run and she looks like she doubled her yeild. I think I was over watering her last time and she loving life this time around. She's smelling really sweet again and my mouth is watering in anticipation. I entered a nug from her last run in nug of the month (Sept, 2016) and she seems to be a hit. I'm super excited to be getting some votes and felling really proud that I'm growing buds worth voting for. I feel like I'm becoming a real 420 Magazine member now, it's really helped with some of my antisocial behaviors I suffer from. Thanx everybody.

Just a couple shots. I've journaled her before but she's still the densest bud in my garden and her sweet flavor is intoxicating. She's coming along smoothly and she's going nine weeks this run with the rest of them.

Purple Urkle..
I SEE PURPLE!!!
LOL. , just on the tips of the calyx's. I can't really hit her with cold air due to the rest of the plants in the tent but I plan on using some purple max, some cold water and maybe some ice to force her purple at the end. Her buds are not really that big but she has some nice bud formation going on. Looks dense to me.

Birthday Cake Kush

I'm loving the buds on this plant but her stems and weak branches are annoying.. she needs way to much support to hold her self up. I tie in and wiring her branches up every other day. I will definetly use some netting on the next batch and I'm going to cut silica out of her diet in hopes of some harder stems. I'm not sure if there's a product on the market to help with these issues but I'll have to research it.

VCOGs.. These 6 were in the veg tent way too long and she turned into a jumbled knot of branches. I didn't plan on a 9 week flower and i stuggled to keep them off the light....

Soooo, I started growing about a year ago and this is the reason why. I had a friend give me some herb from his neighbors outdoor that he harvested this year and it was trash. I would be so depressed if my grow yielded a bunch of this... Thanks 420 for helping me avoid herbs like this.. I still smoked some though, lol..

Orka cross update:

They came out good. I cut one early as seen in my earlier post and she was fantastic. The other 4 are almost all different, some are a little more Viper cookie dominant and some are more Orka dominant. 2 of them turned out hermie and 3 were stable (ish).. Since these were accidental seeds I'm happy with the out come. I definetly keeping the first one and can't decide on the second. I'll post some single nug shots tommorow with a proper review but for now, how about some eye candy..

Flowering tent update. DAY 46

Everything is going smooth this grow so far. There's a little yellowing going on with Blackberrys leaves bug she did that last time too. Everything is getting heavy and i had to wire up a bunch of branches.

Purple Urkle:
Still not really turning purple but my Temps haven't been lower than 74 degrees either. I hope she likes the purple maxx I'll start feeding her soon. Really small buds on this lady so I hope her taste and high make up for it..

Blackberry OG
Bulking up nice. Her super cropped tops started falling over so she's putting on weight. Lots of white hairs still but she's going 9 weeks this time. Smells delicious

Birthday Cake Kush:

She looks almost done to me.. she has a few white hairs left so I'll let her go 9 weeks. I really like the look of these buds and the smell is exactly what you would imagine. I might hit her with the purple maxx too but I haven't decided yet... I really want to cut a sample but I'm trying to be patient..

Okra cross update:

They turned out good and they're all different so it's been fun to smoke. Final yeild minus trim and some popcorn ( 4 large jars)I used for hash was 8.9 oz... I'm hitting my goal of a half pound a month so that's good. I have a few low yeilders flowering right now so I probably won't hit my mark this month but 8oz was way more than I needed. I'm going to have a bunch left when I harvest in two weeks so I'm keeping my self supplied. It's also outdoor season so I'll be getting some flavors from my friends... I really want some Pineapple Express, it was soooooo good last year.

Orka cross 4
This one was really Orka smelling. Nice and sweet. I really liked the first one I cut a week earlier (Orka 5)so I won't be keeping any of the Orka Phenos. She smokes good though and has a nice potency. She's a crowd favorite due to the sweet and gassy cleaner smell the orka gave her, the Viper Cookie Flavor wasn't very strong
20161005_172234.jpg


20161005_172316.jpg

Orka 3.
She was another Orka pheno with a little more cookie Flavor.. She was visually pleasing but still wasn't as good as #5..
20161005_172619.jpg


20161005_172627.jpg


Orka 1

She was a nice cookie pheno with a nice taste and light sweet flavor She was a runner up until I found another keeper.. She also had some bananas so she won't be saved.

20161005_173140.jpg


Orka #2, my keeper
This was my favorite this grow. Nice Trichome production, higher yeild, dense buds and a unique flavor. She Has a strong cookie taste with the gassy noted from the Orka. Not quite sweet like some of the other Phenos but that cleaner smell mixed well with the Viper Cookie Flavor, and she's livin banana free..


20161005_173615.jpg


20161005_173658.jpg


Some pics of some un named outdoor... meh, wasn't really potent, I still smoked it though... Kinda of a sweet dirt flavor, lol. The nug on the right was a random orka nug to wash my pallet.
20161005_174152.jpg


just a little peek into my veg tent.. 3 Bday Cake and 4 Bb og for my next grow and some Urkle for the grow after that. Plus the 3 orka I was thinking of keeping so I'll be killing the other one. I won't be Journaling these since I've already grew them before but I have some new genetics in the mail so I'll do a grow Journal on those after I finish this one....

Update with some out of order pics..

I tried some different things with my lighting for pics and I didn't like them but here they are anyways. Day 53 for all of them.. The Viper City og is looking weird to me, I take some pics of her later. I start my flush tomorrow and they will all get one last batch with molasses and the Purple Urkle is going to get a dose of purple maxx. I usually flush for about a week which Is good because they are starting to yellow already.

Bday Cake kush looks ready to me. There's a few amber trics and lots of cloudy heads. She's really got that forum cookie smell with a mild sweetness.. Really looking forward to smoking her.
20161010_202337.jpg


Blackberrys going a extra week this time to see if I like it better... It was really potent before so this should be interesting. The Nugs are definitely bigger this round too..
20161010_202305.jpg


20161010_202301.jpg


This one has me really excited. It's been some years since since I've smelt some Urkle and she's taking me back in time with every wiff. She has some small nugs but I'm going to cherish every single one. The colas are nice but just not "Fat" like I'm used too... My favorite so far.
20161010_202231.jpg

More BDAY Cake, these pics don't do her justice..

That BlackBerry is looking fantastic! I wonder if my Blackberry Kush would like super cropping... I never really like doing that very much, but I do need to start doing some lollipopping and the sort.

Thanx, this is actually my second time super cropping and it was kind of a accident. Both blackberrys had a dominant cola and they wouldn't stop stretching. I tried to bend them but I snapped them both accidently. It really helped the side growth reach the canopy. I snapped them about 2 and half weeks into flower and there was no noticeable negative effects. They are still the biggest tops on the blackberrys.

Here's a couple pics, the top is on the left and you can see the sideways branch trying to hold her up. Definetly happy with her and it looks like she easily doubled her yeild compared to my last grow.. I'll hopefully get 4oz of these two plants.

Quick update...

I hand picked some pictures for a update today but something went wrong with my upload and I'm not doing it again...

Here's a few shots I uploaded earlier..

20161014_195553.jpg


Everything is mid flush and will get one more dose of purple maxx and Bud hardener before going to straight water. I had a perfect plan for harvest but my work schedule is jacked up so I'll be cutting when I can. I can't believe I'm about to harvest again, time goes by too fast these days... After I chop, dry and do a final harvest update I'll bring this journal to a end. My perpetual grow is running strains I've already journaled so I don't see a reason to continue.
 
Almost there... Harvest is coming up fast and I still have buds left:bravo:

Sitting on about a half oz of each orka cross, I better start smoking faster..

Update:
Well, today is day 62 in my flowering tent so I'm going to start harvesting tonight and ill probably finish in the morning if it gets to late. To get ready for this monthly celebration I wanted to finish of the trim I had in the freezer. I've been making ISO hash and I wanted to try something differentdifferent so I busted out the bubble bags

20161017_173647.jpg


After I made some bubble I wrapped it in a piece of unbleached coffee filter and busted out the fams hit straightner

I won't be making iso ever again. This rosin is fantastic. It tastes really wonderful, it burns super clean and I can have it ready in less than a day. . I'm In love and I realllllly want a rosin press now
20161017_184620.jpg


So I think I'll smoke some of this and than I'll get to work. I hope if goes by quick....
