GDB's Express Grow

[InTheShed]

I bet that tent smells like it looks amazing!

Thanks, Shed.

I run no filter, so it's not only the tent that smells amazing but the entire room and it's adjoining room, where Mrs. GDB used to keep some clothes. She has moved them out since this grow thing got started! But she does still do her ironing in there and either she's become nose-blind or she's grown to like the smell as much as I do!

Hello growers.

It's Flip + 60 for the Express Grow and I'm just here doing a lot of thumb twiddling.

I still believe the Black Domina will be the first to finish, based on the firmness of her buds. But, the Grape Ape has the shortest breeder estimate for the flower stage. Her buds are much larger but not yet as dense as the BD buds. So I thought, the GA could currently be riper but just might be a strain that doesn't produce really dense buds.

I decided to cut a bud off the bottom of each and put them under the scope in order to gauge where they stand.

These are the Black Domina trichs:

And these are the Grape Ape trichs:

Clearly, both have a ways to go, but there's not a lot of difference in their current states.

Twiddle, twiddle, twiddle.

Thanks for looking in.

Peace.

I'd say that BD has more time ahead than the GA, but twiddling will keep you busy while you wait!

I agree Shed. The GA is a bit further along.

Based on the laws that govern my little universe, I pretty much assured that the BD would go longer by predicting it would finish first!

Looking great as always GDB. You could always bust out a jar of your finest and do a smoke report thingy instead of twiddling? Ha!

NTH

Let's hope!

I'm interested in how grapey grape ape is compared to Pinkman Goo. My Goo was pretty grapey

 

[Grand Daddy Black]

Hello grow folks.

It's Flip + 61 for the Express Grow and I got a little surprise when I opened the tent this morning.

The Pinkman Goo, which had been maintaining fairly good posture, was falling all over herself. Branches were hanging every way and all over. It's as if she had just given up trying to stand erect overnight! I did not see this coming.

I took her out and tried to support as much as I could but I couldn't get them all back up.

The Black Domina, on the other hand, continues to hold herself up (for the most part). But I believe she's heading to a collapse as well.

Here's the tent shot:

So finally I had something to report today. I need to be careful what I wish for!

Thanks for stopping by.

Thanks Ms. T!

Looking great as always GDB. You could always bust out a jar of your finest and do a smoke report thingy instead of twiddling? Ha!

That's funny, NTH!

The lungs said take a break from smoking for a bit so that's what I've done. I guess I could do a report on my latest batch of gummies, since all I've been doing lately is eating those.

Stone, do you have a pic of your Grape Ape at the end? Did she have dense buds?


PEACE.

Looking good ! She must be putting on some weight bending limbs and all

 

[LKABudMan]

Maybe the earth's gravity increased a bit last night? If not, those buds are just getting chunky and heavy. Good luck keeping them upright

 

[InTheShed]

I'm having trouble keeping myself upright as well today so I'm going with BudMan's gravity theory.

And if your going to wish for anything, wishing for buds so heavy the bend down the branches would be the way to go. Way to go!

 

[Carmen Ray]

Wow GDB your plants are amazing

 

[Carcass]

Yep, those buds are just too big!
Don't you just hate that?
Things are goin' fine one minute, and a few minutes later, you've got big, fat buds splayed out all over the place ...it just goes to show you, it's  always something...

 

[Trala]

Oh. My. Fucking. God!

Those plants are chocka with bud!

Hello growers.

It's Flip + 64 for the Express Grow.

This morning I got up just in time to grab a pic of the girls before lights-out. As usual, my plants are showing utter disdain for what they look like at the end. Seems to be the same at the end of 95% of my grows. In unison they say, "You want a lovely bouquet? Well there's a flower shop around the corner."

But the buds are doing great! All of them are firming up nicely and the ones on the Black Domina (right rear) are about rock hard. She has to be getting really close. I need to scope her again soon. The BD and Grape Ape are devouring and dropping leaves like crazy. But the Pinkman Goo (front right) continues to hold on to most of hers.

You won't see any of these floppers in a photo-dependent OTM contest! (@Azimuth, "No surprise there!)

Have a great Sunday and thanks for stopping by!

Peace.

Nah, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, G. Like picking up a raw diamond in nature. Doesn't look like much to the untrained eye but, when you know what you are looking at, you have an entirely different perspective.

And those look to me like some choice bud.

 

[smokesbetter]

It don't have to look great to smoke Great !!! Shoot I like towering buds !

Wow. That's such a nice thing to say, Azimuth!

Has your account been hacked?

Thanks Smoke!

I've trained my old eyes to look past the leaves and focus on the buds, so it doesn't really faze me.
