Going to be needing gloves now as I can't touch one part of the plant without getting trichomes on my fingers. It literally does have triches

Thats not to bad Mr.. it could be way worse. I somtimes get them small spots its nothing to panic about but I still would bring down the nutes to under 3 tsp per gallon and watch the EC/PPM so you know whats really going on with the plant.. still looking good ;)

hey that even that bad :clap: (at least I don't think it is but i'm still a newb grower hehe)
It doesn't seem to have gotten any worse. Took some more night shots. Checked the res last night it is drinking a little over a gallon in 24 hours.









little pic of the light setup and filter, how dirty it's getting... neon zip ties = win.

You have both the hoses leading out or is it all just connected to one hose leading out?
air comes up through an inlet at the bottom, goes into the carbon filter, cools the light goes through the fan and out the left side of the tent.

requesting a side shot that shows the area under your screen. Looking damn good, mr2shim!
Ask and you shall receive.



Here's the back side of the filter that shows the routing better.

Ha, talk about prompt delivery! Any chance I could get some tasteful nudes?

Seriously though, side shots of scrogs are some of my favorite grow pics.

Me too. I love the foundation pictures, stem, branches, and roots. I love those kinda pics. I'll take a pic of the stem and post it later on today.

Thank God for aluminum tape! Best stuff since duct tape.
I know. I bought a 50ft roll for like 10 bucks at the hardware store. Best 10 bucks I've spent in a while.

What is that you have covering your fan? Does it help reduce noise by any chance?
No, just some kinda cover that came with the fan.. I never took it off so I'm not sure if it reduces noise or not. Fan is still fairly loud. It's a 4" inline fan rated @ 190cfm.

Ah, gotcha.

I'm not expert at this as it's my first grow and I have really on experience on anything else other than what I have in my setup, but I've heard that smaller fans are noisier? I'm running 6" fans. But I can tell you that from a trial & error run…*running insulated ducting definitely helps reduce the noise output.

Man, your plant is really looking awesome!! :clap: It's uncanny how similar your setup is to my TD setup - I'm so happy it's working that well for you! There's so much green in there, don't worry about the little brown spots - when the plant is that size, it's difficult to keep all parts of it 100% happy - it's like the different corners of the plant are in different time zones..lol... one side may have a slight deficiency while the other side could be just the opposite... damn I wish I could +rep you! lol.. :leaf: Keep it up - almost there!!!

Yea I've heard good things about insulated ducting but I'm not gonna worry about the noise, it isn't so bad to where I would be worried.

Thanks. I love the setup, everything is a tight squeeze but it works! I've noticed what you're saying, some spots are showing signs of under nute while other places have small signs of nute burn. I was thinking earlier today how insane that sounds but thanks for the conformation I'm not crazy. :lol:

How much longer do you guys think this thing will flower for?

I'd say 25-30 days. There is a lot of fattening up yet to come.
That's what I'm thinking. Hopefully it doesn't go longer than 9 weeks total. I'm so ready to chop this monster down!

That is going to be a monster, ya better put a leash on her.
I know, I think I may pick up another holy smoke seed soon for my next grow. Don't think I'm gonna grow the Nirvana Ice.
