First one is the Purple Kush, then Power Kush and Power Kush #2, followed by Brainstorm.
You can see the Purple Kush is the frostiest by a mile

PS: I was wrong earlier. By my usual time table they are 3 weeks from harvest but I forgot that under this bulb the pistils were late to the party, ultimately prolonging stretch and harvest. So I'm thinking more like 4 weeks at least until harvest. Second PS I will flush tomorrow and immediately follow up with fresh nute solution

I strongly believe that there is some kind of salt build up... I've been watering juuuuust right so I don't get to have any extra water draining... I thought I was being clever but my laziness just backfired on me. I'm thinking of switching to an ebb and flow one plant system cause I'm always gonna do mistakes because of of my lazyness
But enough of about that... Happy holidays my friends!

Haha! Laziness (ok and a brain that refuses to wrap itself around chemistry) is the reason I am going no-till soilI strongly believe that there is some kind of salt build up...

God its looking good in there! Gonna get a nice yield off that lot mate! I need to look up the ebb and flow system, don't know exactly how it works. The DWC is pretty easy!I strongly believe that there is some kind of salt build up... I've been watering juuuuust right so I don't get to have any extra water draining...

I checked my Cali Hashplant seeds and they don't look very viable. I submerged the best looking one in a cup of water but it got tossed away by mistake. Needless to say I am pissed. I dropped the other two in water hoping that one of them will hatch. Fingers crossed

Ebb and flow is similar to what I'm doing right now but it's automated and because of that it works slightly different. I don't think it's absolutely necessary to go fully automated hydroponics since I will only be doing one plant at a time from now on so I can save up a little cash and invest less time in my hobby

Add some Epsom when you feed and it will help with any salt build ups.I strongly believe that there is some kind of salt build up...

Good news. Both seeds cracked with taproots so I'm thinking of keeping them both. So my next grow will be two California Hashplants under a SCROG

How long till the chop Grape?

7 days from now will mark the beginning of week 8 since the switch and the beginning of the harvest window. That's how I see it. But I want to do this right, AND by then I'll have started work already so time will fly by faster, hopefully getting rid of this angst
I checked trichs today and they were about 10-20% milky and a few light amber here and there. A more realistic number would be 14 days from now but things can turn fast so who knows. BTW I have the same scrog net as you do, what do you think of it? seems a bit thick to me

Nice, yeah I would say 2 week mate but play it by ear! When do you like to chop?
And the nets ok, I'd have much rather made my own screen but just haven't had the time, it was a quick solution! The space between the squares seems a bit too much, I haven't measured but seems a lot more than the 50mm (2") that I would have made. It's not ideal but its serving a purpose!

I like to chop in the morning right before lights on. I've noticed the smells amplify over night so I'm thinking maybe there's a lot of terps at that time and it's a great time to chop. It's crazy though, and stupid. Everybody has got their own ritual

I'm bang same mate, just before lights on! Which is going to be an arsehole this time as my lights come on at 10pm lol
I might fuck the ritual off this time!

You're only complaining because you have a lot to chop off
which shouldn't be a complaint at all

So it occurred to me that plants look so sickly because the roots might be pot bound.

First pic is Mendocino Purple Kush (runt). She has 4 beautiful main tops (very chunky) and the frostiest of them all. I want to run this again
Second pic is Brainstorm which is all milky trichs (hard to take a picture of). Ready to harvest, I'd say. Also she is smelling very very fruity
