Time for another update here folks;
between Friday and Saturday I’ve watered everything in the flower tent... Unhappy with the ppm of the mega crop at 6g/gal (~500), I decided to add until I hit~750. At around 8.5g/gal I had raised the ppm to 733. I should mention that my tap water is typically anywhere from 90-150. I know all of you MCers are going to slap me on the wrist.. but the first time I ran the Cookies n Chem, my feeds were reading in the 1300-1500 range and that was my frostiest harvest I’ve ever grown. Everything looks great without burn today, so I’m pretty sure they liked the heavier feed. Anyhow, on to the show;
Pomelo auto
This girl has ballooned out to some really nice and girthy buds. She’s also nice and frosty and smells exquisite of orange peel and rotting meat. Today is day 70. She’s got 3 weeks maximum until she meets her maker. Her trichomes still show quite a lot of clear, so even though she looks great I know she’s not that close to being done. I’m expecting like 20 grams or so off this girl. If it’s more I’ll be elated.
Flower tent
Today is flip + 20, the end of week 3 of flower. The
Cookies n Chem looks freakin great. She’s starting trichome production and it looks to be a dense one. The two big girls have got a nice fruity gassy thing going on. It’s like sweet gas. I guess that’s why i named her Gasfruit... I took a cut of her almost a month ago. It hasn’t rooted yet which makes me concerned. The Pure Gas cutting has rooted and is almost ready to go into a cup. Depending on how they finish I’ll either try and reveg a Gasfruit clone, or just keep the PG as my cut of Cookies n Chem.
My NL is frosting up and just looking boss. She’s so massive... definitely the largest plant I’ve ever grown. I measured her stem, and if she wouldn’t have been super cropped or trained, she’d be almost 5 feet tall. I’m extremely happy with her shape. She’s not going to have a gram of larf anywhere on her. between chef Butt, Kyle kushman, and my notes from my last grow (specifically that my light penetrates to 24 inches maximum) I think I’ve shaped this girl nearly as perfectly as a can.
The star pupil is well under way with bud production. She’s frosting up well too. She’s got a very distinct way of growing though, the buds stay kind of encased in leaf.. especially compared to the NL where the buds are just kind of out in the air.
That’s pretty much it for today. I wish I could do updates more regularly, I’m just too exhausted during the week to do an update after work. I’ll leave you all with these family shots.
thanks for checkin it out
