Ouch... Thanks now I got somewhat of an understanding how that deal goes.
Yeah, I really didn’t think that one through, but fresh frozen was hot on the market at the time .. came out ahead, but now you can’t hardly give fresh frozen away. Dry bud is even tough right now due to Croptober... a fucking shit ton of outdoor on the market right now, and cheap. We see this ever year, which is why we’re staging our crops to overlap that surge. By February or March, most of it is either gone or gone bad. Then us indoor growers can get a decent price again. If you can squeeze your last crop in, and on the market by August, you can take a short break, and wait it out.

Starting week 7 : I’ve dropped the day temps to ~80 , and the CO2 to 1100. Almost got all the inventory on a final heavy feed. Dimmed the lights down a 1/4 turn. Not really sure about all of this as I have never run a grow with high temps and CO2 in a full room, but they seem to be happy so far with the exception of a P deficiency that I didn’t catch early enough. Noted. We’ll see how we finish.7FAE850D-53F2-4A7E-9BA6-75428985FE05.jpeg068A0360-7EEA-4957-A612-D76A2801BA6E.jpeg

Grape Diamonds.... I hate GD. I did manage to produce a pheono of it that I do like, and I still have the Mother, but the rest are very heavy feeders, and don’t fit into the rest of the rooms feeding schedule.BDA1C2DB-A07C-4488-AA83-F05DF7FBC542.jpegED1EAA21-C415-4FEE-AF4D-35F20B9CFF2B.jpeg

Well damn, son.
That sure looks disappointing...
:cool:
Really it’s just the Grape Diamonds. Lol. They just look pathetic. Most of them seem to like a heavy P feed, and everything else likes the same feed. But!, I am going to keep that one mother that produced a couple of good thick plants, not the next run, but the one after that.

What do you feed them? What EC, nutrient breakdown by stages?
Early to late veg is Botanicare Pro Blend at ~1000 ppm with Mammoth P and corrected PH. Temps at upper 70's and CO2 at ~1000. Transition is Tiger Bloom, Mammoth P, Rasta Cal Mag.. temps upper 80's and Co2 at 1400ppm. Sorry I don't have the EC conversion in my head. In week 7 I'm bumping down the Co2 and temps to mimic Fall.

Kind of a cold day here in Oklahoma, so I thought it would be a good day to make some RSO. This is about 1/2 lb of bud, and 2 liters of Everclear. Boiling off the alcohol right now. Then we’ll see what kind of yield we get. My guess is around 12 ml of raw RSO.

This was from our personal outdoor grow.. fucking amazing how much shit is in outdoor bud. The fist cloth I sent it though looked like a mud bomb. .. or a mud hammock, LOL... When I run indoor,.. the first cloth run is very clean. and really not much to see in the coffee filter. But this outdoor was surprisingly dirty. If I would have known this beforehand. I would have been like "wash behind yo damn buds bitches!" LOL.... fuck, I have been isolated for a while now..... dont get me wrong, I know there are peeps in Manhattan that can't just go walk around on 12 acres and escape, but...these are really strange times we are living in.

I hear ya on the dirty weed.
I normally try to give the freshly chopped plants a good dunk in cold water to loosen all of the crap that accumulates over the summer.
In hindsight, it's pretty disturbing to realize how much crap I've smoked.
We had so much rain this summer that my little Bubba looked like a mudpuppy with all of the splashing.

Broke out the Niffty Fiddy. I don't know why I even break out a camera these days, most cell phone cameras are pretty impressive.
Starting week 8: These Orange Kush Cake run about 9 weeks, so we have a bit to go. But some of the 10th Planet are looking like they might be long finishers too!.. I guess we shall see!

Aaron, such a nice grow journal. Very excited to see your finish weight on the current run. Wondering and I apologize if I missed it but how did the jacks do for you? Asking because I see your using your old nutrients.
