Hot Diggity Sog - Chapter 5: The Big One

[Hot Diggity Sog]

Thanks for the feedback...

I did my last rez change on Wed and she is eating less now than before...noticeably less. I removed 1.5 gallons from the rez and replaced with 1.5 of RO. I may do another change tomorrow and alter what I've been giving her. I adjusted my timers again and she is now on a 10/14 light cycle starting today. Today is day 68 and I'll probably do an update later on. My wife will be doing the photo shoot for me on Monday, Day 71. She could come down as early as Tuesday.

Day 147
Flowering - Day 68

What can I say...she is still jamming. Tonight will likely be the last photo shoot I do before the harvest. My wife called me a rookie and has volunteered to do the last shoot before she comes down. I'm super stoked about this because she has a $2000 camera and went to college for photography. I just bought her a brand new light box and she's going to do her thing on Monday. I absolutely cannot wait to see how it comes out!

Monday will be day 71. I will probably take her on Tuesday but it could be Wed or Thur - I'm checking trich's daily. I'm aiming for 80% milky and 20% amber or thereabouts.
I'm pretty proud of the pictures I took tonight except for the whole plant pic. I still can't capture her in her entirety with any kind of justice.

I was looking at your setup and was thinking you should add some board behind your fixtures and line it with your reflective material of choice. I'm sure it would make a noticable difference.

It for sure would make a difference. A lot of light is being wasted. 3 more days til the big girl comes down! Tuesday night has been set.

Day 150
Flowering - Day 71

Mrs. Diggity did today's photo shoot. She still wants to take them into photoshop and clean them up but I wanted to share what we have so far. The big girl will be getting chopped down tomorrow night.

Like Santa's Chronic tree!

Love the ornaments!

You have to put ornaments on that and make a christmas card.

I bet you could even make a small business put of something like that.

I just wrapped her in xmas lights but the pics came out pretty bad. I may try again. The last thing I want is to break a branch or rupture a bunch of trichs.

I just turned the lights off and tucked her in for her last night. It's going to be a long night. Since I cannot harvest her right before lights come on, I decided to just let her have a long night and I will harvest her in exactly 23 hours. It was a little sad as I wrapped up some extension cords and started clearing the room out. I spent many many hours just sitting with her.

When did you start getting the copper edges to your leaves? I'm not judging just wondering because I've got just the very slightest. I'm assuming it's from the extra potassium for the bloom period?

It started a while ago and I'm fairly certain it was from not enough Magnesium. This was the 1st time ever used RO water. My CalMag feedings were at 2 ml/g when I noticed it. Increased to 4 ml/g and that was good for a while but 4 or 5 weeks into bloom started getting it again. Upped it to 5 ml/g and that seemed to be pretty good but it's hard to tell. Between possible deficiencies and some leaf burn from the quantum boards, ya know?

Simply amazing!

Can't wait to see what happens with these QB's in Chapter 6 : The return of the 50 plant Sog. Maybe?

Yes!

Well, we have come to an end. I took her down tonight. It was both joyous and sad. I'll get some harvest pics very soon - as you can imagine, it was quite a bit. She was every bit as dense as you probably imagined. Now it's all about the slow dry. Target temps will be in the 62/63 range with RH in the 45 range. Once the room stabilizes post-chop, I'll get to work on fine tuning the environment.

Oh...and I forgot to mention - I did no trimming tonight. Everything is hanging with all leaves. I'm going to try something a little different this time.

Some post harvest pics...
