some fat nugs building up on the autophotofreaks

they are coming good lol

trouble is now ihave my seedlings in the new grow under 2 100w floodlights 1@3k 1@6k
they are fine for now but i really want to give the a qb when they are established...
means leaving these freaks with the mars the cheapo and the floodligts.. just when they produce lol

funnily enough i chucked some bananas and peaches around after reading the lo and slow thread and some info from dr ziggy and others, maybe its their natural course, maybe the offgas (cant remember the name, begins with E) has beefed them up, theyve defo bulked since i chucked em in though...
who knows lol

pic update
taken yesterday but didnt have time to upload, day 36 however
critical

you can see in the pic about half way the blue string, had to wrap it around to try and lift up some colas, weight is pulling them over now.
sticky as hell.

 

[falstaffo]

gas1 day 36

 

[falstaffo]

perhaps could have removed more lower growths before the flip, theres a fair bit of foliage and i guess some popcorn will come from the bottom. good for oil i hear though.. which is one of the main reasons for this all lol
some nice colas built up on her though, with still a couple or more weeks to go...

 

[falstaffo]

gas2 day 36

 

[falstaffo]

shes never been as big as gas 2
but shes looking nice still, wont harvest as much but as long as its quality..
couple room shots,

while i was tying up around critica i caught and broke off a outer branch little one
tried to get a close up. not very good at it yet lol its a bit airy bud tbh probably never got too much direct lights

autophotfreaksss

so what y’all reckon so far?
curious as to yields now lol im pretty happy with what im seeing for a first go

Looks like you're prepped for drying & curing!
Everything looks great over there buddy.


I'll hang around to watch the show, if ya don't mind. I'll chime in on topics I'm familiar with. Best advice I can give to any grower is to let the plants do their thing. Give em the time they need. More often than not, the 2 biggest mistakes I see new growers make. #1: "over loving" their seedlings... watering them to death. And #2: harvesting too early.
These girls like to reward the patient.


You're killing it so far! Excited to see where this goes...

cheers pal!!
you are most welcome along!!
am really happy how these are coming actually, i was a bit of a worrier early on this grow, but i soon grew out of it lol
havent fussed with em too muh lately though lol

i do think the gas at lease will need a proper prune soon though, althougg there is plenty of airflow, and rh is staying between 50-60 it does creep over 60 at times. want to make sure there is plenty of airflow dont want no mould now do we lol

i have another journal just started too if you dont mind hopping on there also, always looking for tips advice or any general comments, still a novice, still waiting for my first notch so love any critiquing anyone wants to give lol

 

[falstaffo]

just quick dried that bud i accidentalli broke off in the microwave for 1 min lol 15 second bursts in some paper towel
smoking it now lol not expecting much from this but from first pulls ive smoked worse lol worth not to throw it away at least lol

well it was enough to put me to sleep for my afternoon nap!!
lol

 

[falstaffo]

so we have been busy a little tonight.
the colas are getting too heavy, critica was all collapsing in on herself.
gas 1 is ok for now but a few colas also on gas 2 needed some support.

so as with everything in the diy tent i have fashioned some rails to hang garden wire ties to hold up where necessary.
one down each side

as you can see, pulled each side upright, opened the centre right up and much more air flow and light penetration!!

heres the couple on gas2

i also pulled the carbon filter out of its hole, and extended the ducting in and down for now. it is connected the the filter on the floor atm,
@Old Salt is it better to be up high long term or is it ok on the floor,? im thinking its better up high??
if so il sort it tomorrow

I put the exhaust up high to help remove the hot air up there. My inlets for air are in the bottom of the tent, so there is airflow from the bottom to the top.

 

[falstaffo]

yeah thats how it was set up, due to needing the rails i had to remove the support for it and pull it out of the way.
i think i will strap it up to the wall at the end though.
