Good Morning all ! Opened the grow box this AM and was struck with a light, sweet odor. NL is not overpowering with smell but had a real nice smell when I touched a bud. Getting to look better now and seems to be in a hurry to fill out her stalks with flowers. Am curious about how it is going to come out. Smells nice. Gonna mix up another feeding today. Still determining whet to feed her !
I’m thinking she will be done in about two weeks then on to curing, the most important step. Her lower leaves are all dying off and the tops just Keep on Truckin !
I made that grow box about three years ago out of extras in my wood shop and it has been great. I have it in a small closet in my man cave. It was 48" tall but I put a Condo on the top and it is now 60". That extra made a huge difference with my Skywalker OG. Got three oz + out of a single plant with the 17"x18"x60" box !
Had a massive storm last night and there are leaves all over from the trees and flowers. At least it took all the flowers off the trees that were causing me breathing problems !
Watered with pH water only and am looking at time to split the stem this coming Saturday and Watering only for the two days before.
Gotta get out and clean up the damage from the storm today. Hope you have a great day.
Was lucky enough to have my son help me with the yard. It is great to have a son that will drop anything to help Dad ! He knows too well all my medical problems and helps me as much as possible. My other son would help also (I have twin boys) but he lives in AZ ! A little far to help with the lawn.
Got the garage cleaned out so at least I can put the new Camry in the garage away from the hail. Have a great day brother.
Just checked the grow box and it is stinkin’ to high heaven. Love that smell and it is getting stronger every day. The cola’s are filling in nicely and are looking good. Getting close to the time to split her stalk and put her in the dark for a couple days. Got a feeling that it is going to be a good crop.
I am going to plan on harvest in about a week. Then off to Australia ! Want to get her dry and in curing for a while.
I will take pictures tomorrow when I take her in for a good soaking and trim.
@BIGE Hey, how’s it going? I can’t remember how your skywalker came out. I was reading my old journal and couldn’t remember your finishing it. It was great for me and I still have a little left, believe it or not !
My NL is doing well and I am going to split the stem and head for the darkness very soon. She has had only pH water for last two feedings. Time for splitting means Drills Up ! I found some irory chopsticks that I bought in Guam that are collecting dust and they should slide through the stalk easily. The wooden ones bound going in last time.
Hey Fellow Stoners ! Well, she is in her final days of life. I have been flushing her with only pH water for three days. Today I split the stalk and put a chop stick from Pei Wei through her heartwood. Closed her back up and put her back under the lights. She is certainly not the best grow I have had but all things considered, not bad. Ten main colas and two small buds that I kinda missed that got big before I caught them. Usually do not leave them but hated to cut them now. will give me a few bowls on them.
Forgot the length of time to let her go before 48 hour darkness but I am figuring about the 15th will put her in darkness. Any comments on how long to leave her with the stake before darkness ?? She smells sweet. Not all the trichs I usually see but am happy she is done. Porn pictures of her are below. Have a feeling from the smell that she is gonna be good.
