GimmeTheGoods First Grow - Advice Appreciated

[GimmeTheGoods]

@prodigy
Thanks for the accidental like lol but yo dawg real talk man be easy with that in ur new place.sounds kinda skecthy with the pop ins by the landlord. If u were talking bout the sscs sample i had then it was dried the proper way with the rest, 8 Full days. Wasnt harsh at all super smooth surprisngly in a little glass piece. Didnt taste good but didnt taste bad either.

@nimi no problem man anytime. Honestly after my experience with my 3 hermies if i were u n really wanted to push it i think its possible but theres still a risk Of fukin up the females,you have i believe 2 weeks i read somewhere from the Day the male flowers are developed into the actual 'balls' until they open and release pollen meaning you can try n keep em a little longer n chop before they open n maybe get a few extra grams. I chopped mine at about the size Of urs maybe a little bigger n got a nice lil stash. Just remember tho itll be very premature so dnt expext a good taste or smell or get stoned.

Wow thanks del, man i really REALLY appreciate that man. Whats ur setup up, light wattage, exhaust fan cfm,grow room size, strains, soil/hydro, ac, nutes etc....?

Im running a 600w hps and its in the middle of a huge room so no need for exhaust fans. I'm growing in soil with general hydroponics organic nutes i got at a local hydro shop, and my strains are 2 Papaya (Nirvana) and 1 Kaya Gold (Nirvana). I'll be following this grow and cant wait to see how it turns out!, Best of luck to you.

Nice set up to start with. U got any oscilating fans? If u dont get one,it helps strengthen the stems so they can better support those huge colas youll get later and i also feel itll help light penetration a little bc the leaves n branches will sway. Whats ur temp and humidity? Glad to hear u grabbed a seat as i dont really have a huge regular audience just alot Of people passing thru. Ima post pics tonight so ill have some bud porn for all u who care.

I do have a fan blowing on it 24/7 and my temp's/humidity are 78/50% and I'd love to see some bud porn .

Good stuff, keep those optimum conditions n u should be good with a lil tlc. Btw how far along are u if u didnt already state? Are you fim'ing ot lst'ing any Of em? Since ur only running 3 a nice lst would help yield out quite a bit. I got u On the bud porn later check me out around 11 tonight or tomorrow cuz i got some last minute Christmas shopping to do. Ay do u know about mychorrhizae (mightve mis spelled lol) or benefical brews? Im gonna try em next time,their supposed to really kick things up a notch! Research em if ur not familiar

 

[GimmeTheGoods]

Nevermind i see ur in Day 5 Of flower today. Btw u do know that the flowering Day countdown isnt from switching to 12/12 but actually about 10-14 days AFTER switching to 12/12 when they start throwing pistils. Just letting ya know incase you didnt so u dont f up your countdown n harvest early. I also read somewhere that when starting off n u 'think' its time to harvest to maybe let it go another 5-7 days unless ur absolutely sure meaning u have at least a 30x maginificatiOn jewlers loupe or microscope to see the trichomes.

 

[Delman150]

I've done alot of research so i know about the magnifier and the pistils showed 2 days after switching to 12/12 so I'm 3 days in, I'm not really going on the days more on the amount of amber trichs so ill the papaya when it gets 50/50 amber trichs and the kaya gold when its 25/75, thanks for all the info, And yeah i read about those things you were talking about that starts with the M next time ill try it out for sure.

 

[GimmeTheGoods]

Photo update time!!! Dont mind the super nute burned leaves i got shit back in check after my 1 1/2 week flush. These pics are from this morning which is approximately Day 32 Of flower

 

[Delman150]

Niice looking really good dude cant wait to see what you get out of those beauties!

 

[GimmeTheGoods]

Thanks man. For some reason the og18's are not frosty at all! Im baffled....

 

[Delman150]

Probably just the strains genetics im sure it will look like it has sugar all over it lol

 

[GimmeTheGoods]

I hope man. We''ll see tho

 

[SSNUGS]

I would recommend you clear all the dead leaves out your inviting bud rot and bugs into your grow leaving dead and rotting vegetation in your tent.

 

[GimmeTheGoods]

Damn for real? I will take ur advice Ss n do that as soon as i get home tonight n feed em their first dose Of nutes since flush. Thanks alot man,u saved me alot Of heartache bro. Good looking out

 

[GimmeTheGoods]

Ay since i got so many should i pull em by hand n leave nothing remaining or cut with scissors n leave a little stem behind?

 

[Delman150]

Try to just pull on them they might come off if not you can used some sterilized scissors to cut them, I had some problems with dead foliage earlier so that what i did and the plants were fine. I just cut them at the beginning of the stem.

 

[GimmeTheGoods]

Yea,del i usually give em a gentle tug n if they dnt come off i leave em. I was just curious cuz theres alot Of dead fans up top which is very useful in the plants photosynthesis process so im kinda unsure. But ill do my best tonite n do whatever the situation calls for whether it be pull or cut. Thanks for the advice

 

[Delman150]

How did it go, did you decide to take the leaves off?

 

[GimmeTheGoods]

Yea man i took a decent amout Of em off n staked an og18 that was starting to lean.
Heres the og.18 standing at 4ft 4in.

 

[GimmeTheGoods]

Spicy Whit Devil, also over 4ft tall n smells like blueberries!
