Good tip but I wouldn't have flipped the whole room back for two weeks just for her to re veg so it's still as quick as I could have managed. Now I know for the next one if I need to.

The GSC and Bubblelicious are looking good with their new hairdo. They both have a mean looking trunk on them. Your GG#4 mother appears ready to give up another batch of clones anytime. The rdwc plants are just rolling through late flower. Gonna be a mess of bud coming from them.
Question....Did you top the mystery auto or did it just produce the branches like that?

She’s all natural.
I like this particular cut mostly cloudy with a tiny bit of amber. This will be done at 56 days.
Nope. Single bucket. The chiller is for the flower room.

Hahaha! That reminds me, I actually got accused of photochopping pictures last year. I’m not sure about the “dialed in” part though. I went way too heavy on the EC this go round. I got red stems...purple branches...burned tips...LOL. But man this thing is just sticky as can be. I’m looking forward to trying this batch. I may need to flush for a full week or even more. I’m surprised they’re still alive to be honest.
For any of you who want to try DWC, I don’t recommend going that high. This cut is tuff!
Health update: I’m still alive! Today was cardio. Completed 30 minutes on the elliptical first thing this morning, on an empty stomach, then ate breakfast and walked my 8000 steps on the treadmill. So far, things are still on-track. Antibiotics took care of the sinus infection. I missed another two workouts because of that (which means I’ve missed 4 workouts since July 2018), but I had no issues jumping right back into it.
It’s pretty difficult for us old dudes to add muscle. Reduced testosterone production is a normal occurrence with men my age. However, assuming no other variables are involved, there are ways to increase testosterone production through compound movements. I’ve been trying it and I believe it’s working. Basically, executing lifts like squats, dead lifts, snatches, etc. where you really squeeze/lock your core to push through the movement, increases production of testosterone...thus increasing muscle...even if only ever so slightly due to the already normal decreased testosterone due to age.
I am living proof that it helps. It doesn’t have to be heavy weight...especially starting out. My first squat session in July consisted of body weight only and 12 reps, going about half way down while holding on to a banister railing to assist in pulling myself up. 12 reps...that’s it. Couldn’t walk for two days...trying to fall/sit on the toilet was comical though...
Now I look back and chuckle...I’m still using pretty light weight, but I’m much stronger than I thought I would be at this point. I’m very happy with the way things have progressed. I have much more work to do and I’m determined to continue with as much enthusiasm as I can muster. I told my wife I’m taking her to Vegas the week after 4/20...that will be one year after my heart attack and open heart surgery. She’s never been there.
I rambled a bit...maybe because I hit this stuff. Enjoy!

Your garden is such a show piece. You guys will have fun in vegas for sure. Will be even better now, wonder how the produce is in the dispensaries there?
You are slipping a little though I think.... Is that some green I see through the frost or just the lighting?

I got toasted. I haven’t been hitting the rosin very much lately and the combination sent me to bed with a smile.
I’m starting to see a lot more cloudy trichs with a hint of pink or something. I lost some good magnified shots on my phone somehow. I’ll have to take some more. I have this magnifier for my phone that works well if you don’t fat-finger it. For the most part, the buds are on track or even slightly ahead of normal so I’m pleased about that.
The auto is chugging along. I gave her and the GG mom both a bucket change yesterday. The Bubblelicious and GSC will get bucket changes today. Too easy! Enjoy!
