Waikiki Queen - My 1st Indoor Grow Ever!

[wellfleetion]

So I somehow got one of my tent openings around most of the warm air exhaust and so a majority of that warm air exits right out. As you can partially see, I ducked taped the shit out of it and it's pretty tight. I'm sure this is not 100% good for the dehumidifier but I'm going to return this one for the same model and just get the warranty with that one. Anyway, I just checked and the tent was a cool 78F with 37% RH (lights just came on, so...) when I came home today (room temp was 67F). Not bad!

This was after the lights being on for about an hour. It may go up 2 or 3 more degrees

This strain is supposed to be in flower for 10 To 12 weeks!

 

[Tomula]

You got your environment in check. Nice.

With the lights on and the humidifier on it gets up to 88F with the RH at 37%. But it's kind of warm in house here at 75F right now (it's usually 70F), so I can make it cooler. That dehumidifier works great for my tent though.

Ha ha, it's the curious cat! I bet she/he loves to chew on your leaves.

 

[wellfleetion]

HAHA, oh yeah, she tries to nibble!

That's some nice bud right there! Very promising, keep it up!

 

[wellfleetion]

Thanks man! Seeing the light at the end of this long tunnel is nice. My next mixed strain should take much lesser time with fewer mistakes!

 

[wellfleetion]

That dehumidifier is really doing its job well. I'm psyched that the venting of the heat out of the tent from it is working so well too! This should pay dividends with trichome production, especially this final 5 - 6 weeks. I'll post more pix next week.

This is all 4 plants.

Being my 1st grow and lots of mistakes, I'm worried about yield. I have a lot of little branches and popcorn buds underneath. Next time I'll be sure to lollipop. Another lesson learned of many! I hope to get 4oz off 4 plants. That sucks though!

I just watered/fed them. Another 5 or so weeks I'm figuring. I'm just starting to see some red hairs. I gotta get a magnifying glass next.

Yes that's great thing to have. 60x for the comfort. She looks amazing. Do not worry about the popcorn buds, even those will turn out great!

Oh man....you have it going on now. Don't worry about yield. Just keep treating them well and yes, get a jewelers loupe. And get yourself plenty of jars for curing.

 

[wellfleetion]

Tomula, I need to learned some skills from you! Your threads are awesome. Next grow and I'll LST them.

Thanks Jim! I bought a bunch of glass jars and have read up on curing.

I can not wait!!! I've been without herb (due to a lack of $) for 2 days now! I have always had something something to smoke for the past 2.5 years straight so this really really sux right now! But I fully understand patience is everything and will respect that as I didn't come all this way to just screw things up at the last minute.

Thank you! I think a pause in smoking is gonna reduce your uptake, just start slowly.

So at this point that dehumidifier is keeping RH at 45% consistently. The inside is temp is between 80 - 84F.

I

Just fed them. I wish I could say that was 1 plant but its 4. Big fat dense heavy colas though.
