Gettin near cuttin time for this blueberry bush

[greenearth5]

Im excited to say that i have trichs all over the buds and leafs. I do not yet have a magnifying glass but i can see the trichs with my bare eyes and i can firmly say that they are very developed. I can not yet tell if they are cloudy, clear, or whatever. I am trying to get a blue/purple color going on my bush so i might induce less lighting hours and stress it out. I have it on a 12/12 times but lowering by an hour a week might work.



If i have not mentioned it then this bush is 66 days old and 36 in flower. I probably have 4 weeks left. But before i finish up I want purple buds. I better get an ounce of dence thick heavy purple stick icky icky ewww we buds that taste so sweet to smoke.

well i got a microscope but i cant really tell what the trich show.. the white hairs on the bud are starting to turn brown or something.. other then that the buds are swellin up nice and i cant wait to harvest it

Not quite done yet man... give it about 4-5 more weeks they will be totally worth waiting for b/c if thats original blueberry those nuggets will get huge.

i do not know if its original or not. this is my first grow. Here is the link and the details they give. I have a 60-100X microscope and i can see the trich but i can not tell if they are ready. They look clear still but maybe cloudy?!?! Its hard to tell. I do not see any amber as of now but i havent looked very much


Our Original Blueberry is a mostly Indica (80% Indica, 20% Sativa) strain, that dates to the late 1970’s. A large producer under optimum conditions. A dense and stout plant with red, purple and finally blue hues, that usually cure to a lavender blue. The finished product has a very fruity aroma and taste of blueberry. It produces a notable and pleasantly euphoric high of the highest quality and is very long lasting. Medium to large calyxes. “Blueberry” has a long shelf life.

here is an update... i might get a 400W HPS/MH setup to finish this baby off

From the looks of it, no where near ready to chopped down! Atleast 3-6 more weeks if you ask me!

instead of effing with the lights and stressin the shit out of them, try to drop the temps down to 50-60 degrees. I had an indica heavy bagseed girl and she turned out a real beautiful purple with the cooler temps

 

[greenearth5]

I might not fuck with the lights.. its just a though thou... i would totally dig it if i got purple buds and i do try to knock the temp down at night... but it is in my room and i have no choice but to keep it room temp which it stays around 60-70 by night... any sugestions on how to cool it off more... should i put bottles of ice in my res during night?

u deeffently need to wait before u cut her its way too early....to get the room cooler invest in air cooled lighting...more air movement...and maybe another fan pull fresh air into the room

 

[greenearth5]

I have sufficient air blowing in there already. Here is my setup. If i got the 400W HPS/MH then i would deff consider getting a air cooled hood of somesort.

[greenearth5]

[greenearth5]

So do i just buy my regular 400w HPS/MH light system and also buy a cooltube.. or can i get them already in the cooltube... also i would need a small can fan and some ducting

 

[downhiller6325]

i have a great site to order all u stuff from...heres the link
http://www.htgsupply.com/
best place to get lights....dont get a small fan get a bigger one with higher cfms because u want regret it...thats wat ive always read....and i got one fro about 200...and mine isnt that loud....go with the vortex...and if u have a ballest than u can just buy a cool tube reflector

 

[greenearth5]

Yah, That is the best place ever. I got my 150W HPS for only 85 bucks with S&H. I am checkin out there 400W HPS/MH for only 200 bucks including S&H. But I havent seen it with a cooltube pre-installed but rather to purchase seperatly.

no i got mine with the cool tube its an add on....the one cool tube was like 288 with an hps...than i bought a mh for my digital ballast....thats another thing to invest in.....get the digital ballast... and tan i ended up with another cool tube system...so i can now set up a 2 room system...

 

[greenearth5]

So whats the difference between the digital ballast and the magnetic one? I think i bought a magnetic one becuase it was the cheaper of the two. I am moving soon and will be getting a large walk in closet .. So im trying to prepare for then. Maybe get a 600W instead of 400?

EDIT: I see the add ons when you customize the grow lights. I didnt have that choise with my 150 Light.

I never liked adding ice to the res as it just seems like too much of a shock. Bags of ice laying around would bring the ambient temp down if its a small enclosed space - but you'd need to experiment a bit to get the temps right

I had a major heat issues in my 3 chamber cab with my HPS so I made some modifications see my running thread in post No. 303. Take a look at the pics it will definitely give you an understanding of how to cope with the temp issues during lights on & lights off with out turning into a snow man if your cab is kept in your room.

When I was starting off I felt isolated because nobody had a cab like mine (it was purchased) so if you have any questions let me know ill be more than happy to help.

 

[downhiller6325]

digtal is alot quiter and you can switch between the mh bulb and the hps...but you cant do this with a magnetic.....
