Have to wait till am to take pics of recent flower space move not disrupting her during transition but my other flowering space is humming along once again playing with light distance
have light at about 16" from tallest Kola may lower another 2" tomorrow just tie kola down some but they are falling under their own weight already so another night might not need to
Crappy picture but Bubblegum has proven to be a challenging strain right from start took over week to sprout and has crawled to it’s second set of leaves much to my surprise. The bag over it is to deal with my low RH in space the Super Skunk was 3x as quick to start and settle in to space
Pistils already starting to form so stretch is almost over but filled screen nicely none the less also lowered light a couple of inches to around 20" will drop it more in a few days hard to explain the UV LEC throws warm to my hand is 10" but bleached leaves at 15" 2 harvests ago by moving light lower too fast So testing slower adjustment to let plants adapt. Will try and get light into 16" range on my other flower space and move light slightly behind other side so if I see ill signs I can know exact range
I guess it’s hard to explain how large these plants actually are lmao since photo is always at angle both flowering spaces are 6’x3’x7’6"
plants are around 3’x5’ so my W/FT is around 21 half what I would recommend to others If I wanted lb per space would run 2 315w or 1 600w and 2 plants every round as it sits I get 4-8oz strain dependent have some low yielders that I just like for smell taste etc. I am also quite subject to my playful nature in that I test and abuse my plants often rather than just babying them
It’s simple really what I love about hydro if they don’t like it I change it no need to flush or wait for medium to get back on point added airstone to both units which boosted roots some and improves water temps since the air adds warmth I would love to pair up my lights for 1 grow but would mess with my schedule light movers are working like charm too think once I get lighting range dialed in will get thicker kolas but very hard to explain how green my ladies stay top to bottom compared to HPS even 3’ away and under canopy
Edging light every closer did res change today on aero unit and lowered light couple more inches. Replaced belts on snow blower which was royal pain and took longer than I expected but more snow on forecast so needed to be done
Well it froze overnight which made me replacing door not an option I now have resize door frame since I had cheated and put interior door on while rushing to seal in shed. Which is now swelling and getting stuck so an odd size which I would have to custom order for a steal door, ended up buying 32" door in frame for 160 50 less than the custom door without frame or hardware and 30" is a standard size go figure so need to pull out door frame move stud and header and try to trim siding which is frozen. This all while trying to stop heat puking out of my shed
lol,sorry about that @Donaldj
i put in an old metal door that was insulated.
i was more worried about summer temps…lol
what a diverse range of grows here at ilgm…
Nothing to be sorry about first door was $80 and was meant as temp door so lasted longer than I had expected but the wet warm winter I have had was not expected moisture usually isn’t in air during winter here.
debating making some shatter tonight? Have to check my trichs on PK in flower #1 tonight if it’s close may put extracting off for a few more weeks? should map out how new door is going in
My other flower space has entered harvest window on second flush watering tonight at about 80% milky 5% maybe amber be another week to harvest by my guess? Think I have refined my extractor process to nearly perfect my shatter came out rock solid like hard candy
just a rough idea of size
still atleast half plant to harvest easily double my last harvest a couple more days and will harvest the rest just letting it finish a bit more
