Day 48 Flowering
I don't have new pictures to post right now because the buds are mostly pressed up against the screen where it is difficult to access them (and I don't have the time to mess with it right now). I see a lot of orange hairs, but Im not sure when I should think about harvesting. I should probably start flushing now. My biggest fear is still the heat off the glass, but everything is progressing. No doubt I lost some crop due to heat/overgrowth. I just need these fuckers to mature so I can get them out and start over with a new batch.
The biggest lesson here is to not let your plants get to big in veg!

Day 54 Flowering
Its been a couple weeks since I've changed the res. I can't tell you how busy I've been with my business. It has also been discouraging how tall these plants grew. Completely my fault. Newbie mistake. I see a lot of orange hairs and nute damaged leaves. I changed the res this evening with about 680ppm of nute strength. I'm going to give these girls another 5-7 days before flushing. The good news though is that the buds I do have look pretty good and are so resin filled its unbelievable. I actually picked a little sample and it smoked incredible even without full maturity and flushing!
Pictures to come at harvest. Like I said before, its very difficult to get a shot worth while.

Dude, I feel for you just watching the past few pages, those babies a FULL, standing room only in there
You need to remove a couple of those guys and maybe even clip a couple branches for damage control
Have they stopping growing up yet?
I just don't want to see the whole thing go bad from too many plants in there
Good luck on what ever you do just weight all the options and I am sure this won't happen to you again
I am also working in small quarters so I know what you are working with

Learning process takes years to master this trade. Quick update on how my soil went, pulled of about 2.5oz blue widow, 2 oz moby dick, 1 oz blue hash, 5 oz nyc sour diesel and white widow.
Now as an experiment i did all 5 of these in the producer unfortunately few of them took off while others laged behind(bw) giving me no choice but to flower . Several of them came about an inch away from the glass. one hit the glass and its buds started to squish, so i cut an inch of the top and it seems to have done no harm. So i have about 7 nice plants and the rest are only half the size of my box. All my plants are turning purple some tops are completly purple ill take some pics at harvest. 4 days of flush, 4-6 days of ice and darkness should really bring out the purp.
I also have cut 20 purple kush clones and preparing for the next cycle in the producer. You should also be getting ready for your next producer show

This always happens around harvest the harvester is to busy getting stoned he forgets all about his journal. lol
im a few days from harvest and i can agree that this producer is pulling off some resiny buds. They are exploding with crystals and put my soil job to shame. And people are telling me my soil is very very good

I worked with several strain which really messed up my timing wouldnt recommend it. As you can see some strains stretched while others produced several colas. So far white widow, blue widow turn out amazing in Triple A category. They dont stretch much and produce many colas very nice smell and lots of yield.
Wouldnt recommend
Moby Dick Good strain, high yield, little stretch, bud look nice, not much smell.
Nyc sour diesel Too much stretch, very little yield, Extremely skunk smell
Blue hash Way too much stretch, ugly buds but full of purple, no smell. Fluffy.
My schedule
Veg
·sensi grow A and B
·vita boost
·*h202
·*grozyme
Flower
·sensi bloom A and B
·*Big Bud
·Vita boost
·*Mother earth tea bloom
·*Carbo-load
·*H202
·**Grozyme
·*Overdrive
·*Final phase
Ive * the most important nutes, ones without star can be replace with anything. H202, grozyme carbo-load huge. h202 will oxygenate your water and will kill any bacteria and strengthen roots. Growzyme will work with h202 and break down nutes allowing plants to eat faster. Most zymes will not work with h202.
My ppm went about so in flower
week 1 - 400
·week 2 - 800
·week 3 - 1200
·week 4 - 1400
·week 5 1400
·week 6 800
·week 7 Flush
·3 days of ice water
So after all this i got 17 oz, using 2-400w, 1 125cfl and 2 sunblasters
3 of those trays full, filled the dryer

I spent 300 for a true clone online if your ever intrested can send you the link. If youve ever had true pk ud know how potent it is. Its almost impossible to find aswell. Im going to be ordering my second producer right away there very easy to use and very streath. Now that this one pulled off 17 oz its already paid for it self the co2 tank and all extra nutes

Thanks man, i thought i really screawd up when i did the different strains. as you can see the blue widows are only half the size of the box. So i thought i would get quater pound forsure. Turns out those little plants had 9-12 colas each. sunblasters forsure did this. Everything turn purple aswell giving the final product even better look
