Awesome harvest Bob. Almost 10 zips off of DT1 is stellar brother!! And over a pound and a half off of 3 plants is something I hope to get to some day.

Awesome harvest Bob. Almost 10 zips off of DT1 is stellar brother!! And over a pound and a half off of 3 plants is something I hope to get to some day.
Yea Bb i wana say thanx for turning me onto this style of growing since im doing pretty much the same thing jus not with an auto pot setup u got me major jelly with those lol wish I cud afford another big upgrade n i wud get a setup like that lol wud sure make it alot easier on me but yea still gotta love the organics n the kelp meal reminder was great guna give her some of a tea using craft blend next week and I think that should boost her enuf tht i wud feel safe to flip her since she is starting to get fairly bushy and I dnt wana lose the potency of the soil b4 i put her in flower cuz ive been vegging her for alil over 3 months now ill post a pic or 2 ina min here gotta go take it first lolThanks everyone for the compliments... yeah did very well this round.
Specially since we went away for a month, came back re-filled the water res then back on the road for another 3 weeks then back to finish this round up.
I did have help about 3/4 of the way thru the August trip and got 15 gal added to the res... once these plants got big and flowers, they were drinking 60gal of water a week. I don't know how they survived the last week in September ... I'm betting Kelp Meal FTW.
Hey next round already going full steam. Man I love fall and winter and spring for growing.
Just changed some lamps so now full on 100% Vero29 V7 COBs @ 1250w. Finally no more heat. Wow what a difference.
Gotta give a shout out to Dan @ Timbergrowlights for giving me great service and custom built lamps the way I wanted them.
Everything the same but the lamps and BOOM, epic (for me) results.
The soil mix is Coots mix no-till on like the 5th round. Just keeps getting better and better.
Basically been doing water only for 7 weeks of the 13 week grow. Supplemented with several IPMs with Silica (horsetail Fern Tea + Pro-tekt + Ful-power foilered on) and a few ACTs with EWC and Kelp Meal early on and half way thru flower. I went minimal with everything but water. The plants get access to all the water they want with the AutoPot XL (7.5gal) system. All I have to do is fill the water reservoir.
My main challenge was getting plants away from the lamps, as they grew up and past the height of the lights - they were at max height.
So super stoked with this last round. We did very well with minimal effort and minimal input.
Less work = better results, it's a thing. Something I've been trying to perfect all my life!! hehehehehe
DT #2 = 200g dry & in the cans
DT #3 = 220g dry & in cans
DT #1 = 275g dry and in cans
So almost 25 zips dry.... 3 plants. That's off the hook for me.
Put them in flower and left for a month vacation out of country. Leave them alone, they know what they are doing!
They were clones that were in VEG about 6 weeks from roots to flower room, each plant was about 20-24" tall @ flip.
Harvest pics dried and trimmed.
DT #1 275g dry - that large C-vault holds about 6 zips dried:
Some frost
All the buds are covered in long pistols like this... this is dried! Mix of white and light orange.
Hairy Cola....

I looked at them C-Valts.... Can't get my cheap ass to buy them. I like the gallon glass wire tops. But even they get costy. Damn I look back at the days three 4 jars wood last acouple months.... Wow was that forever ago. I use damn near that anymore for budder batches... I use these big ass film canisters my son found somewhere. Black plastic that holds, depends on if you seriously pack it between 1/2 - 1 pound of dry product. 14-inch film canister... But gallon glass canning jars are like 10 bucks at some store???
Dude you can do some serious growing under a good HID. Tested and true lights... But then it's the heat issues that come into play. I could see a LED in a tent,,, but to me better yet a HID in there. Ambient temps matter there. Unless you going to flip an AC unit in there. The Nice thing about an ac unit,, is it dehumidifies also...
And in one of them big tents,,, you need about 1200-1500 watts HID which makes alot of warmth. But if you have to get reflectors also,,, look into inline cool tubes with wings. You can leave one end open and it will help exchange the air constantly. They are cheaper than most other lights. The last 4X8 I did had 2 600 watters in it,, and temps aren't that big of a thing. They raised the ambient temp 6-7 degrees with a 6" booster fan drawing airflow thru the tubes.
Congrats on the DT. I just cut a c-99 variant. Sucker did acouple seriously major main buds on it. Mine could've been a big single cola plant in like a gallon pot. Alot could fit in a 4X4 square?? Well Keepem Green my friend
This is the second time I've had a cortisone injection in the shoulder and got some relief. I'm not sure how long the first injection might have lasted because the doc ordered the MRI and all the damage was discovered and we headed for surgery about a month and a half later. Of course, being such a terrible patient 4 months later I had revision surgery. Doc said the tendons weren't in great condition and described them as like wet Kleenex. I had 2 rounds of physical therapy and that shoulder is pretty much pain free just not 100%. Overhead work or even reaching up is problematic.
This new doc thinks I can rehab this shoulder through exercise without surgery or going to physical therapy. I've got a print out of all the exercises and I'll give it a rip. Of course I have to stop doing things that might re-injure this thing. As for the exercises, I'll have to view this as a priority. Lakein's Law: What is the most important thing for me to do right now?
As for the back. Mine is not much better as I have degenerative disc disorder and bulging disc at L3-L4. There was one other area of minor damage and that MRI was taken 11 years ago. I still have problems but got the back better with walking and exercise. The sciatica in the right leg is much better and my walking stick is in the closet. As for muscle spasms in the low back, I still have them but it's usually a result of me trying to do too much and hydration issues. Docs all cite cigarette smoking as a root cause of DDD.
Now about oil. I have plenty of infused olive oil. One capsule gets me pretty damn high for hours. I still have whatever pain I got up with.....it's just a bit more pleasant to handle. Perhaps I'm so stoned that areas of pain are not sending intense pain signals to the brain.
I'm probably going to grow a balanced CBD/THC strain one day. Then maybe I'll be able to confirm pain killing abilities (at least for me). Inflammation causes most of my pain and I believe it possible for those finding relief for cannabis are getting some reduction of inflammation through the ECS.
Possible Ace in the hole. I'm growing my first pure indica - Pakistan Valley. I remember one website that listed the five best and I've got three of them. I'm still not convinced of pain relief of any of them. Maybe I grew them wrong.
Rad said:THC helps pain more directly, but as Magic Jim describes some of it isn't removing the pain so much as limiting how much you care as about the pain. THC helps manage the emotional component of pain as well as directly promoting healing and health.
