EhCndGrower And The 7 Dwarfs

[Stu]

Terribly sorry to hear this news of mites.... looks like you’ve got a good handle on it and some experience with them before, your beautiful buds are in my thoughts tonight!

 

[EhCndGrower]

Thanks Stu.

I think I trimmed off maybe an ounce worth of wet bud but I never put it to scale. Took a look at everyone else and were looking ok. Will be keeping an eye on everyone this weekend and will do another round of misting on Saturday and hopefully again on Monday. I’m so damn close to finishing but hopefully this misting will allow my Gorilla Bomb to finally produce the buds I see in so many photos by other growers.

Remember all plants are different, the next time you run gorilla bomb it may produce big time.

I have “high” hopes that when I do grow it a 2nd time that my results will be much better than this. Still this grow might surprise me out of no where too. Just waiting for it to get frosty at least

You'll be ok in the end, trichomes are mostly genetics

@bobrown14.... .... for your time to write me and your thoughts on the lights and suggestions.... luckily I have decided to go with the hlg 600H v2 in 3000k.... lucky I bumped into guys like ehcdngrower and others also suggested quantum boards, after I bit of research, that’s the one I decided on.... sadly haven’t ordered yet... but paydays tomorrow and I’ll be ordering one first thing in the morning.

You'll love that light!

I’m excited to order it! Was gonna put on credit last week but with Xmas coming up figured I’d better not put on the card this month and wait for the cash

 

[Uhnstoppable]

Great looking plants! Sucks about the mites tho but glad you caught it before it was too late.
I’m also ordering the 600h soon for my first grow, looks like it didn’t disappoint so far!
I’ll be watching the rest of the grow with you. Good luck

Day 125(Day 55 Flowering) So I’m still seeing those nasty little shits on my girls. So I gave them another spray down of water/alcohol and will do so again on Monday if I can. (Stupid work) It does look like my Sensi Star CBD could be harvested today. They are cloudy looking and see signs of a few amber trichomes on there as well. I don’t mind a little more amber colour to them and would have to wait until Thursday to harvest at the earliest. Have family staying over for a few days and don’t want to stink up the house. The Xmas tree can only cover up so much of the smell Again looking for the amber in my trichomes as I’m looking for more that couch lock for some sleep aid. Cookie Monster, Black Domina, Purple Bud and my Granddaddy Purple are all looking cloudy and should be ready I guess in a week or so I would think. Girl Scout Cookies is starting to show new trichomes forming on the new growth and am probably a few weeks out on that and same with my Gorilla Bomb. So again, die mites die and we’re almost there everyone.

Day 127 (Day 57 Flowering) Well I’m almost there and it looks like I will be chopping on Thursday or Friday. Will put them into 48hrs of darkness starting tomorrow night. Still debating on trying the splitting of the stem but maybe I will hold off until my 2nd grow with more experience behind me. Everyone but my Girl Scout Cookies are showing cloudy and amber coloured trichomes. So my question for the experience growers out there. Is it ok if I left my GSC in the 48hrs of darkness, even if I think it could go maybe another week with the lights?

Because of the mite issue I will be washing my buds before I hang them up to dry in the very same tent. Will be placing them in the hanging mesh baskets with screens and zipper sealing them from any intruders. Will try to find my moms baking scale and get a wet weight to compare to the final dry weight

Gonna be a big harvest!

 

[EhCndGrower]

I’m hoping and crossing my fingers. Do you think my GSC will be ok if I went another week of lights with them? Even after my 48hr period of darkness to finish everyone else?

 

[Pennywise]

I don't think it would cause here to throw hermies but it will slow her down.

 

[EhCndGrower]

Then I will take my chances. Thanks for the helpful input as always

 

[Pennywise]

Good luck with her.

Day 130 (Day 60 Flowering) Been a few days but I have started the harvest after 2 days of darkness. Completely chopped down my Black Domina and harvested 343g. I also chopped the top portions of Cookie Monster, Purple Bud, Sensi Star and Granddaddy Purple. The bottoms portions weren’t there yet (lots of bushy foliage down there) and will give them another week or 2 to finish with my Girl Scout Cookies and Gorilla Bomb. Everyone was trimmed and given a wash in baking soda and lemon juice, then water and then another water bucket. Hanging in my tent in a hanging drying rack to curb the smell from spreading throughout the house. I wouldn’t mind but the family doesn’t share that feeling with me.
