Brix! The Quest For Grade AAA Organic Cannabis

[Radogast]

Hey thanks Rado! I'll definitely be adding a half gal from now on starting at lights on. That should be a huge help. Now i just have to get my drying environment dialled in. Not sure how well standing water will work with lights off but this grow was a huge eye opener that my environment is off. What do you do when its time to dry? May get a cheapie small humidifier for drying.

I run a whole house dehumidifier - one of those knee high things that sell new for a couple of hundred dollars. I buy them used at auctions for $20-$40 until I find one that works well. My dehumidifier sucked about 1/2 gallon out of the air of the flower area last night.


I've been falling behind on threads and just caught up on your photos -- Wow!

Thanks Rado! This humidifier is making the room the right humidity little by little. Took a while but I'm now getting into the 50s. Should be perfect when drying time comes around.


It's already getting heavy in here. Gonna have to get a bamboo or something to hold one of the side colas.

I'm really liking the spacing on your bud sites, all I ever seem to get is big bushy messes lol.

Increasing humidity helped a lot, what’s your humidity like in summer?

Hey KB thanks. This Tut gets pretty crazy too. It's prone to pm because of how bushy it gets. I did a pretty heavy defoil before flower cutting branches that were in the way of others then cleaning the branches and only leaving the first 5 or so nodes. Doc suggested only leaving about 5 nodes at flip and i am really happy with how they came out.

Thanks pw. Its still going up. Very happy. Peaking in the 50s. In summer i want to say it was around 20-40% but i was using a cheap and most likely inaccurate weather gauge. Upgraded this grow and the environment is a lot easier to dial in now.

 

[Pennywise]

Our humidity runs a bit higher in summer so only have to deal with heat thankfully.

 

[BedroomFarmer]

Yeah, its so dry here. Hopefully this one humidifier does the trick. Normally the ac set to 78 is good enough.

Cant wait to do cat. Think they need a little longer.

Hey Rich! Looking awesome and I'd say they're ready for the cat! How many days post flip? Also, I'd remove those dying leaves.

 

[Pennywise]

So you do the Cat once the flowers set?

 

[weenmeoff]

Exactly PW!

Def ready for the Cat but the pots feel like they could dry out some more. Think I'm good to do cat today? Def gotta clean up under there.

 

[weenmeoff]

Oh, gotcha, yea let em dry out. Rock on!

 

[Pennywise]

Those flowers are definetly set, now it’s time to start bulking up.

 

[JustMeds]

Its CAT time as soon as you can.

 

[BedroomFarmer]

Thanks guy's! Ok so I checked this morning and I can't tell. I mean the pots are heavy but maybe its just from 10gal of soil. I could pick them up pretty easily tho. They look slightly thirsty to me but not sure if i should let them dry a little more.

10 gallons of soil is pretty heavy, just saying.

 

[weenmeoff]

When was the last time you fed? Not sure what I was thinking saying let them dry out. In flower, they should get fed/water about every 4 days. Give em the cat!

 

[BedroomFarmer]

Thanks guy's. I know Doc said to let them dry but not to let them wilt. I'm guessing they are dry enough. They got a drizzle a few days ago but not a full drench. I'll probably get on the cat then since they seem dry enough but not wilting yet.

 

[Graytail]

Keep in mind that the plant itself is getting heavier, too. That's fooled me a few times.

I bet they're ready for a drink.

 

[BedroomFarmer]

Great! Like a couple of housewives, It's getting Catty up in here!
