Blue Cheese Bubbleponics *My first time in water

[SMOKEnCHOKE]

6 weeks on friday...I like to take the pics once a week that way I can notice a difference hahaha....Everyday when I look at them i'm like well they look the same as yesterday but once I see the pics i'm like wow what a difference

True story, I usually take my pics every 3 or 4 days and sometimes even then it's tough to tell.

I finally started a grow journal of my current grow, if you want to take a look at some shots here is the link.

I love to come home and have to raise my CFLs one inch higher and add a gallon of water back to the tank. THEN I know they are growing!

Looks a lot like my buds (oh I remember them well). I miss my girls! Just a bit of grower's remorse. LOL! What strain is that?

Oh boy, I just fed them PK 13-14 on its 5th week. And the buds just seem to inflate overnight! Looks like we're both firin' together soon but your's 1 week ahead of me...when are you harvesting?

 

[MostlyCrazy]

I grew BF LSD. It's a skunk/afghani cross backcrossed with a skunk#1. It grows short (mine were inthe 28-24" range at finish). It's real trippy to begin with and then that afghani power shows up and you get very relaxed without the couch lock. WW is also a sativa/indica cross but I think the LSD has more power.

Don't you just love it when an additives actually works. It's like cooking something for the kid that they really, really like.

The tops of mine should be done very early september but i'm not too sure about the bottom....Maybe a week or two extra for these ones that are getting light starved

It's Friday! Lets see some pics

Not much you can do about the bottom buds other than side lights. I concentrate on the doneness of the top 4-6" of bud. Anyway, when the tops are done the bottom is close and partial harvest is a waster of time. The air buds also dry earlier and give you a "coming attractions" view of the power of the tops. The bottom buds will be more of a "in the head" high than the tops. Nice change of pace sometimes and then you can decide what high you want for the day.

So you think I should just harvest it all at once? I figured if I gave the bottom an extra week or two they would fatten up a little no?

Here are some new pics!

When you harvest the plant and remove the top buds the plant will go into shock for a week or so. It will slowly get back to finishing the buds so if you have no other grow planned and can take your time to harvest then you can try to get the underbuds to finish completely. If another grow is planned it just waste time to let them finish. Look at the trichs. I harvest when the top trichs are about 10% clear, 60% cloudy and 30% amber or there about. The underbud at that point are usually about 50% clear/50% cloudy. It's a matter of timing as to when you cut but I look at whole plant development to decide.

I do have another grow planned but when I say harvest the top buds I mean just the one big plant....It got sooo big it towers over the other 3.....So if I harvest the big one partially in 3 weeks it won't affect the other 3 right?

 

[MostlyCrazy]

No it's won't affect the other plants so harvest away and let us know how that works. Whatever the stage of the big one when the others are ready - - - cut it and start your new grow.

I just figured if i gave those other 3 plants a few more weeks then they would be perfect....They all have lots of bud sites but are definitely a few weeks behind

It's so weird how they took on such a sativa like pheno....The big one should easily give me 2-4oz's and then hopefully if i can squeeze that much out total out of the other 3 plants i'd be very happy

 

[MostlyCrazy]

Sounds like the same way my monsters usually work. If I have 3 plants to start, one will be a runt, one will be medium and one will be a monster. I was lucky enough on the last grow to have one runt (hit the trash pile it was so small) and two monsters. Maybe I'm getting better! Nah, just got lucky this time. They were clones taken from my previous monster though.
