3rd Grow (2)Banana Kush, (2)Bubble Gum, (2)AK-47 and (1)Girl Scout Cookie Extreme

You sure did time that good. I was just figuring my projected harvest date and it came out to be July 4 and with drying time should be very close to your arrival, but it wont be cured

No worries man, there’s time. I have to pick up some autoflowers for guerrilla outside to grow someplace, just until I get things sorted out.

My new addition to my grow room. I mainly installed this to bring out the colors at the end of the grow. It will also help with humidity.

Will have to play around with dial and temp readings because this is just a cheap one I had laying around in my garage. Not high tech at all

Nice, I have up ac in bedroom window right outside grow room and it’s got my RH down to mid 30s during day but can jump to 60 at night. Gonna try using adding dehumidifier when I get home next weekend. Hopefully it will help drop some during night cycle. Keep us informed how much it helps please

I don’t know if you remember my last grow, when it was the start of winter and my basement humidity was 20- to 30% and I had massive trichomes.

So I want this again PLUS I want some more color too, which comes from cooler night time temps

I remember this grow @MAXHeadRoom looked like lengthened velcro! Sticky! I hope that air conditioner helps with the colors.

Have you looked into how PH affects the colors as well?

I just read something about that on another post. Hey was that you! Was it a higher PH. Give me some details and the logic behind your madness. lol :rofl:

@MAXHeadRoom I found while running NFTG that adding Tritons Trawl has brought out the colors in my last 4 plants without having to manipulate ph or temps late in flower. Just my observation. I ended up buying a gallon of it and add it to all my plants in flower :v:

Well, I have to do more research on it, but depending on the strain and the type of color it is likely to present, raising or lowering PH can help make it happen.

This is from an article you can find by googling “bud color cannabis”:

Some strains of cannabis change color as they flower. What’s the secret? Genetics. Anthocyanins are a group of around 400 water-soluble pigment molecules classified as flavonoids. They appear red, blue, or purple according to their pH.

It goes on to say that purple anthos prefer a neutral PH, blues prefer a higher PH, and yellow/orange prefer a more alkaline PH.

Thanks man, I will pick up a quart and see how it works. I don’t think the strains I’m running really don’t have to much color in them but I would like to know how to do it when I grow some blueberry or blue haze or something along those lines. People really dig weed that has color in the dried bud. They think its stronger or more potent.

I’m out of likes, but it’s worth a shot! Colorful weed has better bag appeal a lot of times, but not something I personally look for when buying weed. I’m more concerned with the frost :v:

Before I joined this forum, I had no idea what part of the plant got you high. Now that I know of course that is the area that I try to improve is trichome development. I do know that very low humidity will make your trichomes huge. I ran 20-30% my last grow and you saw the results.

For sure! If you can have those RH numbers in late flower you’re in good shape. It’s harder for me to control RH in my garage and I’m gonna have to bite the bullet and get a dehumidifier soon

2 Likes

I may not be able to get those numbers this time of year either, but I’m going to try to get them as low as possible with what I have. Currently have a dehumidifier, a good one, and an A/C unit that I installed last night. I’m doing temp and RH testing as we speak. Will post results later

Weekly update

We are at day 39 of flower. I am using NFTG on my BK, AK-47, BG, GL AND GSCE. The White Widow Auto I am running AN perfect PH with that and I am real happy with both the nutrient lines ATM. I hope that doesn’t change. The grow room is smelling great. It smells like lemon pledge in there.lol

I installed a AC in my flower room to bring down the RH and that seems to be working.

I’m trying to get that in the 20’s but I don’t think that’s going to happen.

Left side of the grow room. WWA in front and BK in the back. The WWA where growing so tall I had to super crop them. I tryed to time the WWA grow to harvest at the same time as the BK, but these autos just do there own thing. I would say they are 2 or 3 weeks behind the BK.

On the right we have 2 AK, 2 BG, 1 GSCE , 1 GL and one BK clone I just threw in there when I started flower. I was small then, but now I think I might get 2-3 oz out of it. One of these smell like lemon pledge.

Veg room is off the chain with the wavy boards. I have never seen growth this fast and the fan leaves are HUGE. Most are the size of my hand or slightly smaller.

Some bud porn and future BOM entries. They are starting to fatten up and with the low humidity should be packing on the trichomes.

!

Trichome pictures. They are filling in but there is still room for more to grow. These are from the AK-47

I have been feeling pretty good the last 2 weeks. Only had 1 really bad pain day, and that was from over doing it by mowing the lawn. Still no word on the Clinical Trial that I was suppose to get enrolled in. I can tell and see the tumors are growing and I’m starting to look pregnant. About 3 months along if that was the case. Well God’s in charge so he knows what he is doing and I just have to be patient. It will all work out in the end no matter what happens.
