I was considering to start at least reclaiming the coco that floats to the top when in a bucket of water while tossing out the goop at the bottom, and mixing it in the next run. If I repeated that process every run, eventually I would be mostly using only the top grade.

I have a Spectrum King SK400+ that I pulled 19 oz of Jack Herer in a 57"x57". I did however have it on a light mover and CO2. I currently use it in a 47"x47" setup. The SK hangs pretty low, so you will lose a bit of headspace in the tent, especially on a light mover. This has been a problem...

I know the smell you’re talking about, but this batch didn’t seem to have it. It may be that I bought them in the winter time so they weren’t cooking in a shipping container for the last few months. Here’s my update; I jarred the nugs today. The system seemed to work at keeping the...

So far so good. I put this unit into service last night and the internal RH never exceeded 66%.

Always leav’em wantin’ more!

Here we go... I’m putting a whole harvest on the line with this concept. The ambient air RH is roughly 30% this time of year, and my previous harvest did not get a great cure because it got too dry too fast. I’m trying to slow things down a bit with this setup. This rig is a three chamber...

Final weight.... 375 grams of very close trimmed bud. Unfortunately I didn’t hit my 1/1 GPW goal. I could have done a looser trim and upped the final weight or included more stem, but I think I would still fall short. Prepping for my next grow now, stay tuned.

I find the Inkbird hygrometers for $13 on Amazon are very close. To cut costs, I also use the cheapest button hygrometers which can be found for $2-3. The trick is to put them in a jar alone with a Integra pack for a while and use a marker to make a line on the face of the hygrometer...

Not much of an update today, but I have been flushing for 3 days and harvested about 80% in my first pass. I’ll post a final weight after I get everything in the final cure phase.

Week 9 Day 1 Most of my grows end like a scene in a movie where the car engine is on fire, all the glass is shattered, tires flat, finally powersliding onto the edge of the cliff, where I must carefully extricate myself and leap to safety before the car plunges into the abyss. This grow is no...

This cut has a nice strong mango smell with a faint diesel smell, and fainter still skunk. The plan is 8 full weeks and 3-5 day flush. As long as I have 70-80% opaque tricomes, I think we are good. The buds really blew up this past week so I'm not going to rush to harvest as long as its...

Week 8 Day 1: Buds are continuing to explode and upper foliage is continuing to dry up, but not such a rate that would cause concern. I continue to pinch off foliage that has browned up to allow light to fresh foliage underneath. I’ve had to support some of the buds that were falling over and...

Week 7 Day 1 I actually lost a day midweek because I left my light dialed down. Otherwise, the buds are plumping up nicely despite losing some foliage. I’m seeing some signs of excess N, possibly from adding cal/mag midweek.... so I think I won’t be doing that again. The schedule calls for...

Week 6 Day 1 The nutrient Schedule switches from Top Booster to Shooting powder this week. The buds are hairy and filling out nicely. I think I’ve got this deficiency situation in hand. The plants seem to like more cal/mag than the nutrient line provides. I have read this is common under...

Week 5 Day 1 The nutrient schedule adds in Top Booster this week. I’m still keeping an eye on the cal/mag situation. The newer leaves coming out of the buds seem to be doing well, with maybe an occasional drawstring. The ppms this reservoir change were a little higher than I was comfortable...

Week 4 Day 1 Starting out at 500ppm’s this week and I’ll let it drift down to about 470 and maintain PH. Some of the fan leaves closest to the lights are showing rust spots. The lower leaves are looking healthy. The buds look healthy in general.

WEEK 3 Day 1: Was having some cal issues as the plants were going through their major stretch phase. The plants consumption of nutes dropped ppm’s down to 400. I added botanicare cal mag at 2ml/gal half way through week 2 to get ppms back up to the target. This cut from my last grow liked...

I must say, I’m a little ticked to discover that I can’t edit my own posts... This really changes the way I have to approach my updates. Any way, here are pics from week 2 day 1 of flower. I had to remain in veg a bit longer than I wanted do to some deficiency issues, but we are on track now...
