Ak-47 - LED - DWC

Damn that's some nitrogen in your bloom 3 part. I use Advanced N and the Bloom part as a 0 next to the nitrogen part its all P and k. All I can say bro is your a far better man than me. I would never be pulling my plants earlier for a guest. they better be understanding or find some concrete to sleep on.
 
My suggestions are: Don't cut the nutes until you start to do a flushing for harvest. Week before guests arrive flush. Last day before their arrival you can harvest and hang the buds in a box to dry. I hope you can find a place to hide and dry the girl's box. I use a green cfl to maintain a lower RH and have minor heat source in the box. Green colored cfl. Good luck.

i wouldn't cut nutes yet either, i usually wait until 5 - 7 days before harvest day, there's where i cut all nutrients feeding her only phinal phase or a clearex solution (correctly pH'd of course) and let her feed on stored nutrients.

way to go man, you're almost there, i cant wait to read about your yield and smoke report, have a feeling that this is going to be definitely a win :high-five:
 
My guest happens to be my mother who is visiting for health reasons. She has to see a specialist and will be staying here for 20 days during her multiple visits to several specialists so we can get her healthy and ease her suffering. Any other circumstances I wouldn't really care but in her state the last thing she needs is to stress over her son being a drug Lord. She's not understanding or compassionate about medical mj and through her upbringing and propaganda sees it as a hard drug that ruins lives.

10 years ago when I first started medicating I had her talk to my chiropractor, family doctor and physiotherapist and they all assured her that it was mostly safe and if it eases my daily struggle with arthritis that it would be an alternative to me popping synthetic pills several times a day.

She would have nothing of it and even cried thinking that I would turn to such a drug to ease my pain.

Sorry for the long back story but I hope it helps see my situation a little
 
As for something that's more on topic.. I wouldn't be cutting nutes completely... just cutting out most of my nitrogen. Still a bad idea eh. I'll just stick to the program and keep her going as long as I can.

Last resort is harvesting a day before her stay begins and drying and curing off site... which I would prefer to handle myself but I'm sure I can find someone at least half competent to lend a friend in need with weed a hand.
 
Sympathies for your predicament Nine44. I am sort of in the same spot. My son moved back home and is just too nosey. Trying to break into my grow room. Being unable to pass a pee test is a problem for him. Heavy equipment operator and tests frequently. I don't want to get him back smoking. Especially my medicine. I guess it's not exactly like yours but it does suck.

Sorry to hear that Jim


Here's some shots without the blasting of light emitting diodes.

My side branch seems to fail under the weight of its own nugs.

Aww man I missed the majority of this ride :( Looking absolutely amazing though! Congrats!

I am curious... don't you have am air filter? Couldn't you just dry and cure in the grow space?
 
That was the initial plan but I'm converting the grow space into a Veg garden for the winter. LED grown tomatoes, peppers and I've had good luck with my sweet potatoes outdoors so I'm thinking of comparing them to some led grown sweet potatoes.


My trichomes appear to be cloudy now. No amber and some clear so I think I'm worrying for nothing and I'll make it to where the plant needs to be before harvest I am almost positive.

My main concern is so much happens in the final two weeks I don't want to miss out on it.
 
I'm doing tomatoes and lettuce, Bok Choy and Chard inside. I normally just over winter my tomato plants, but this year instead of High power CFLs 250 Watt actual, I'm using a Mars II 700 watt LED too. Might get some tomatoes to go red with that much power and heat. My tomato plants are four years old. I am moving it into the basement now and have 5 tomato clones under a 2' T5 now. They will be in the recycling hempy system for the tomatoes and NFT for the veggies when I sent them up in the next couple days. Have to clean and sanitize the PVC and buckets, five of them, and the perlite. Inside my NFT has 21 plant spots, outside it only has 7. No glue on the PVC and it is easy to take apart and reassemble.

Never tried growing sweet potatoes. I see that some people grow them in 5 gallon buckets. Is that how you do them?

Just hang in there. Can't wait for your smoke review.

Hey I grew the sweet potatoes in a Rubbermaid Rubbermaid tote. From what I noticed they branch out according to how much surface area of soil you have not how much depth, so I'm not sure about the buckets and how they would yield.

My outdoor tomatoes produced a total of 2 whole tomatoes that weigh less than one of my sweet potatoes lol
 
I'd like to try growing those sweet potatoes. We eat lots of them here.

My tomato plants, 6 of them, grow to 25 feet long and give a hundred or more 1 pound tomatoes every year outside. I use "indeterminate" tomatoes. They grow as a long vine. Bush tomatoes are like Autos, they have a certain life span and start tomatoes at a certain time of their life and then die. They are "determinate" tomatoes. Mine, indeterminant, will be giving tomatoes as soon as I set up the garden and plant the tomato clones. Normally it takes from 55 to 65 days for the first tomato from a seed grown plant. Clones start flowering right away. I hope I get tomatoes inside this year. It will be the first time in 4 winters.

Never thought about tomatoes being like cannabis, but they are related. Determinate tomatoes, bush types, are like Autos, you can't clone them. Just grow from seed. And Indeterminate tomatoes are like Photoperiod plants. You can clone them or grow from seed.

I never got many tomatoes when I grew in the ground either. Soon as I made this system on my back deck, I was giving them away.

I was thinking about advertising locally to set up systems. Got a couple months to decide I guess.

Well to be fair drying should only take a week or two at best and when they are in jars you can put em where ever you want. If you can hold up for a week or two you should be fine especially if you are cutting it so close. Thats just me though, I don'tl like trouble or hassle haha
 
Just treated myself to an arizer solo. Must say it's pretty dang good.

Packed the little bowl and it vaped it completely in the 12 minute cycle. I think I prefer the temperature a lot lower than most. I started at 4 and moved up to 6 but I think the flavor is much better at 4 and probably better still at 3.

Will dig out some buds I've been saving since January of everything that was tasty that I had this year. Can't wait to taste them vaporized.
