So it has been a min since did any updates as like most Racers and Rod guys we tend to build more power than the size of brakes and rubber to the ground could ever hope to contain.... and I will leave it at that !! LMAO
Errerythang kinda piled up at one time couple weeks ago between plants comming up to harvest, the changes I have made to my grow area and Equipment and the "incident" with BeerRun#3 and it's power to slowmogromifacationators ratio.
Overall I was pretty happy with the results even though I screwed up, to be honest I am not sure if it was shit going on, not paying close nuff attention or just plain not knowing WTF I am doing LOL. The yield was a bit over a half lb pretty much dried/curing and fairly cleaned up. Some fairly nice flowers, some not as nice and a bit fluffy. Turned out to be better than the HS football field turf I thought I may end up with
I missed/fucked up/didn't know a few things which I am totally fine with given where I am at this point and working though that learning curve like everyone just has to do and you can't really get from a book or forum or even a video. You just have to go through the whole process a few times to get a better handle on things and be better at preventing and reacting to some of the stuff that can pop up but hey man I got a a half lb of not to bad Hippy Hay (that works very well in the Waxmongrifier 3000 limited SE producing some good Dabbers), learned a ton that will help moving forward and have met some cool peeps in the community so totally positive experience and tons of fun.
I am no totally sure what the deal was but at the end the Tri were just turning milky, all the plants had some nice frost and to me it looked like they had a week at least or maybe 2 then for about 2 days I was building a Panda tent and "other stuff" popped up so at that point I had started the flush about 10 days prior was not hyper vigilant but it almost seemed that in those 2-3 days frost and tri's just simply kinda faded to maybe 50% of what they had been.
I found 2 plants with 2 or 3 leafs bearing the mark of what has become my arch nemesis PWM. It is never much but has me totally pissed off lol. I get 2 or 3 leafs out of all my plants that will have just a few small spots on them and I am so sick of scrubbing down my tents, wiping leafs replacing ducts and crap. I going to try and treat/clean the ducting I swapped out to be used later but was easier and figured better to replace them since I had more than enuff already on hand. All to no avail... and like I say it isn't much but just nuff to stress/piss me off.
So being I was building this other tent I didn't want to risk it getting there too and I had started flushing I just felt it best to harvest but to be honest I think it was like past the prime time from how the tri and frost just seemed to reduce like that. It was odd though cuz they were milky and maybe a few, very few aber but then like 2 days later *poof* So I think if I would have chopt 2 days prior to that would have been better and I am pretty sure it would have been better to flush longer. It isn't harsh/raspy or anything but I would think with a longer flush/better timing it would have been better but was still surpassed what my expectations were and between area/eq/exp the next go will be better/easier/less stressful.
One thing that was weird and I will sound like a dipshit prob is that half of one of the plants had a fair amount of seeds that I hadn't seen nor anyone I have shown pics or plants or pickins off them I have taken to the dudes at the hydro shop to get their take on things had seen either. No clue if that is something that just happens or if something I did or something I didn't do or see cuz ya we have all gotten a seed or two in a bag b4 but this was weird. Like half of the flowers on this one plant had seeds and I mean maybe 4-6or8 in each bud. I don't know but I will go through my pics and stuff to post up to get some of your guys thoughts on that. It doesn't bother me that that happened really as it was just half of one plant but it has been driving me friggin crazy not being able to sort out WTF I did or din't do or if I did or didn't miss something. i just want to sort it out if I am screwin up so I don't keep poking myself in the eye with a pencil and it keep hurting.
Anyways I have to upload some more pix and go through some to try and find a few shots to show whats up but here are a couple and a vid as well

Oh and thanks a ton to everyone that has helped me out or even just say hi and stuff it makes things so much easier and helps smooth out a rather gnarly learning curve for people that may not want to go huge but do a solid effort to grow more than the Charlie Brown x-mas Tree Hippy plant in the window
Oh, far as that half of plant that got all seedified I learnt it a lesson turned ShortBuss Racing's latest offering loose on it
