Cheers dude, I only get a glimpse of the root-ball after entering the Flowering stage, due to the weight of the plant on top of the lid.. However I do see in at the top slightly.. and they are white so thats the main thing ... I can see a little more through the water level window.. and the roots only really seem to take up 5L of room of the 10L tub?!! lol she seems happy enough so I am pleased about that .. Yeah! all lights (except green) are on the 12/12 cycle now !! - STELTHY....Stelthy^^^^^^^OMG!! Top notch stuff^^^^^^^^...You got 3 weeks from now? And you got those UVB lights on for 12hours ? DAMMMMMM,,,,,,,, nice work amigo ..you are a happy man
How often do you look at the root ball??
Yeah dude, I am on my last week with nuits... then its just a case of flushing until the trichs are the preferred colour... I was tempted to do a water cure instead of an air cure but since it'll bemy 1st time curing in that way I think I'll only water cure an oZ and see what the difference is - STELTHYthat sure is a monster cant wait for the weigh in, nearly there aint ya bro?
I've never heard of water curing. Could you elaborate or link to a guide?

Apparently from what I can make out : You can feed the plant right up to harvest, then you cut the buds down.. and submerge them in room temp water for a number of days.. after a few days you change the water for fresh water, this method removes 99% of the nuit build up and most of the green colour.. it can remove the smell, but it keeps the potency.. but the main bonus is : The smoke is super SUPER smoothI've never heard of water curing.

Sounds interesting. I'm def curious to hear how this turns out for you. How long do you keep them in water in total? For example with air-curing, I know that you're looking to cure for 3-4 weeks at minimum, but I can't imagine keeping your buds submerged in water for that length of time without running into some serious problems.Apparently from what I can make out : You can feed the plant right up to harvest, then you cut the buds down.. and submerge them in room temp water for a number of days.. after a few days you change the water for fresh water, this method removes 99% of the nuit build up and most of the green colour.. it can remove the smell, but it keeps the potency.. but the main bonus is : The smoke is super SUPER smooth
As I say, I will cure just an oZ this time to see just how good this method is, and will most likely do a report on it Hope that helps - STELTHY
Apparently you keep the buds submerged in water for either 5 or 7 days.... then its just a case of drying them .... It sounds easy enough and straight forward.. I will defo do a report on it, I can't help but wonder if there'll be any extra benifit of double curing the water cured buds... ie/ Harvest > Cut & Manicure > Water cure 5 - 7 days > Dry for a few days > re-cure in Mason Jars > Smoke !??Sounds interesting.
