DV8's Deviance

[Trala]

Thanks for saying that, but I just learned the technique off peeps in here. It’s not my invention or anything. And I agree, fridge drying keeps the colour and bud so fresh.

Now my advice, not that you asked lol. Your Reveg looks like a dropped pie. I think you should pretty her up. Life is too short for ugly plants. I would treat your Reveg like any plant you were pruning back. Now she’s regrouping, I’d give her another trim to encourage shape and a repot or uppot as they say in here to mess those roots up a bit to encourage spread.

Fucking modesty.

Ok, thats true. But without you no way could I trust the process. You're a peach.

Ouch.

Look honestly I haven't 100% committed to her beyond donating some clones. Ill censor her out to save your eyes.

Makes perfect sense to me, thanks for being thoughtful enough to give directions and lay it all out.

I had a good look at her this morning, she probably could pull a second harvest given proper love.

Im still unsure though, I have some girls I really want to grow, and planning future space is tricky. Her total reveg and second flower is a tough fit.

One or two (at least) good clones would make it worth the horror Ive put her through. Maybe my grow buddy could find a spot, give her(another) life.Ill see where shes at in a week or two when the first snips for clones come off. So far Im just well pleased she didnt toe up on me yet.

Opened the flower tent today and BANG!
Got smaked in the nostrils by the Blueberry. Never in my life have I had such an experience, I thought the scrubber  must have stopped working!

It was on, and functioning.

Almost feel silly counting her as close after that. Was her legit signal shes ready to start chasing the dream of having little babies grow inside her with some mutant beast that can send his pollen through solid walls, locked doors and zips. Aint gonna happen for that poor spinster.

Miss Muffin chilling

This clone girl is almost ready to go in. Shes basically growing more outside the pot than in these days. Quick tidy and she can start her reach this week.

Seedlings all looking good.

Already got my eye on that Wedding Cake, early bolter, which Im very pleased about.

They are due for a very light pot veg feed.

And last of all the clones. The Runtz girls need some tough loving. Ill put one in early, and one later. The side node girl is a little more uniform, so the topping clone might go first and just let her be a hot mess. Youd swear they came from different mothers.

Watermelon Zkittlez girl needs some coaxing from mediocre. Shes not terrible, but she needs some love. A bit of heat, light, and a something to feed on and she could go on to be a swan.

Shes more fan leaves than nodal.

By far the tightest of the 3, and her lineage suggests at least so far that they dont get huge. Might be the Zkittlez side. Ive never really seen a monster Zkittlez derivative anywhere, and certainly not in my seeds so far.

 

[DV8]

Seedling girls got a bit sad today. Hopefully a quick water gets them going.

As for the rest business as usual.

Had my grow buddy drop by Friday, and another mate come by Saturday, both of which have adopted girls from me.

It was kinda nice for them to be so positive about the current girls and the ongoing feedback about the buds going out.

That is a huge part of this for me, sharing with others, helping out, and trying to grow the best buds on a boutique scale that I can. To know the end user is loving the result inspires me to do better and keep raising the bar.

Honestly, the day they legalise here, Im setting up shop, no doubt about it.

Cannabis is set to add over 90  Billion dollars to the US economy this year, and may be as high as 160 Billion.

Not to mention the impact that has at a local level. If nothing else your states have got that part right.

Until then Ill keep toiling away trying to hone my craft and improve my skills and grow efforts. Thanks for all your help, directly, or indirectly, because you are making a bunch of people very happy indeed.

Pic dump. Obvious the temps have gone colder now.

It'll be interesting if that regrowth plant produces any nannas in an attempt to self pollinate. I read that can happen if you harvest but leave the plant still alive with a few pop corn buds, which is good if you want some female seeds of that plant. But I'm curious if that happens as it sounds a cool future option to have. And your garden is looking great!

Tell you what mate that would be a happy accident, but a welcome one if it transpired.

Uppotted last night.

Colds kicked in kinda proper. I can tell the difference as temps drift. Vpds have been terrible for about 2 weeks

Too hot for 5 months, too cold for 5 months, about 8 weeks of easy weather.

Might add some lights or heating, not sure yet. Wait till weekend rolls around make some changes.

Blueberry probably come down, might covert the big tent yet into veg for a bit, move Miss Muffin into a 2x2 and use the 4x4 space to create better temps.

Fucking Botrytis

Dead leaves was the give away. I wanted to wait but this girl is coming down tonight.

 

[DV8]

Ok so final wet weight tally went 500 cut, and nearly 90g went in the bin.

Fuck me that was one heavy girl, she didnt look it but she was as solid as shit in her uppers.

My guess would have been 5Oz dry save for budrot, if I gave her an extra week maybe more. Should be a 4Oz effort once done.

Spewing she got so little but in a really tricky spot to cut, like 2 inches below three of the mains, they were so tight on each other. I just thought bin it instead of trying to save above and below.

Anyway another (so far) successful one down, theres no guarantee on any of them.

These were proper 420 worthy buds, well pleased, definitely my best yet, they look delicious and full of resin.

Cpl day 1 post trim pics.

I didnt search for the best, few good ones there though.

If it wasnt for botrytis would have left the sugars, they were loaded up.

Gotta learn what to do with trim, there was some high times thrown out for sure

Veg girls

Miss Muffin.
Shes all sorts of needy right now. Poor thing

Fucking mint bruv.

Good job. They are bursting with health and their shape is bang on.

Even your Reveg looks good! This with shape she’d be better lol.

I did snip her up a touch. Shes nearing donor time.

I’d defs give her another spin around the carousel

She has fought hard to come back. She deserves another go. She is more than an organ donor. Well I think she is lol.

Im thinking about it.

In offsite news here are the 3 girls moving into flower

 

[DV8]

3 more shipped out, Blueberry, Runtz & Watermelon Zkittlez clone.

Tents look a bit more empty, but will give me some numbers for cloning & a chance to reset. Id like to reorganise power cables, give the room a good go over and put some flooring in.

Dropping the next full run should allow everything to go into the flower tent and clone tent long enough to make the changes, and help me keep up with paying the plants enough attention individually.

The offsite run might need to do a full veg.

Humidity continues to be an issue, still loving it though.

Oiiii tell him to clean up his act or I’m calling CPS (Canna Protective Services!)
