King's Winter Bomb Seeds & Purple Monkey Balls 2018

Okay so quick update busy as fack !!

Harvest time !

Thc bomb mid week 8 flower chop clayxs were slight showing amber and it beinh 50/50 and all I thought it would be a good time with aphids moving in and all.


1010 gram wet from reflector 144 light -thc bomb

986 grams wet from the unit farm 120 -thc bomb

Was able to hang for 6 hrs chop few zips and now off to work

Good news is temsp
And rh in the room with everything hanging is 60-64% rh and 68-70 f
Gotta fun but though I’d share that info.

My unit farm lights buds are bigger and denser no doubt there however.

More info to come off for now lovelies
 
Alright iti buddy same guess as mine eh :lot-o-toke:

EDIT - Congrats on the harvest. Looks good! woohoo weed in the house. trim party at Joe's.

I was going with that too - so changing to 420g lol

On your aphid attack. Wash of what you can call it a day and be glad your crop didn't look like this - cause I had that a few times and had to toss no amount of bud washing gets the aphids off, or very many of them anyway. They secret sugar out their ass called honeydew - many insects harvest aphids keep them alive feed them and harvest the honeydew for food. It's a thing with bees (wasps) and ants and probably many many more insects. I think the black aphids come from some pine tree like white pine (not positive) and are invasive to the pines. Wasps harvest them for food. So if you have a pine near your home and see a lot of wasps all spring summer and fall leave the wasps be. Dont kill them. Eventually they will clean up the tree and move on to the next infestation hopefully somewhere else in the neighborhood. The wasps are not that aggressive and will only sting if you hurt them. I've done a lot of research on this as we have both the aphids and the wasps at our cottage and of course white pines.

Here's a pic of the aphids with the wasps I'm speaking of. Usually aphids attack in a big swarm like this and get stuck to the plant with honeydew when your spray to kill them. They suck bad.... easy to get rid of hard to wash off when you get this many. I've had them like this and its a toss. You'll be fine. Hey if the ants and bees like em, cant be all that bad for us I'm thinking.

1 or 2 here or there, meh.

VVVV This is not good VVVV

Here's a link on the bigger fellow in the pic and what the wasps that harvest aphids look like. Cute little fellas. Just don't wack one if he lands on your arm. I think they bite first then sting if you get more aggressive with them. I'm allergic to bee stings and why I did a lot of research. Getting stung in the wilderness in Ontario with no help for hours could spell disaster for me.

OPP whats your emergency?
Ouch, You're gonna have to go jump in the lake for that one. lol
 
Here is some new info findings pics of aphids , (not best sorry). One branch had nothing on it second one these black aphids here in Ontario we get them and are known to have presence here . From internet searching studying trying to. See if credible .

Also slow and low trybattrnkt number three . Second time was decent I think . Chem dawg auto .
Okay nap time for this old man









Chem Dawg looks Tasty !! Sorry got behine on thr read 4 pages (damn it ) didnt get the notices ??? Fixed now Hope
 
Ok Joe I'm saying this in my penny wise voice as he's not here but I'm sure this is what he would tell you. No spraying chemicals this late in the game. Chop them, docs bud wash them, hang dry for 3-4 hours, take buds off of stems, put in paper bags and put into frig. Every day open bags and flip or toss buds just from sticking together in the same spot. After 10 days take out of frig and paper bags and let sit on a counter for 10-20 min. Then put in jars about 1/2-3/4 full of buds and a hydrometer and close with a sealable lid. After an hour or 2 check the humidity and if it's where you want it (in your case 58-62%) leave Jared and start your cure, if still to high put back into paper bags and back into the frig for a day or 2 and check again. Do this until you have your desired rh.
Thanks Derby/ Penny , something new for next run !!

So came home after the day and rh was 68 % and temp was 66-68f currently standing beside meter in drying room allot about just over 300 grams in fridge slow and low drying rh hitting 89 % so burp few times a day ?

Sorry so the hanging room
Is about 8x8 or so and it’s 66f and 62%

Seems like a sweet spot ?

How long do we hang for two days then trim and dry rack of temps are stable like this?

Chem dawg? Where is the chem at ? Sniff sniff
 
Congrats on the harvest Joe! :welldone: I never guess weight because I'm never even close so it's embarrassing.

Watch for N toxicity on MadDab's WWxATF...seeing the clawing at the ends even on new growth.
Yeah bro dabs called that out have backed off on cal mag 2-0-0 nitro ...

Also backed off on how much food I am giving it it really is less is more is t boyz? In hydro specially ?

It’s all shed just you coming over and being a wicked human is great for me bro.

I hate pest !!! Really I do shed it makes me cry to any man or woman who get them and have hard time controlling them.

Sighs

What is a fella to do bud
 
I like to trim wet but that part is up to you. At 62% RH you could leave them there for ever and they'd be perfect.
Then it’s just watch temp as to high or low can result to mold correct ?
 
At 62% RH the temps should be cooler to prevent mold, and good airflow is important as well. 50% is usually what they call for for drying but with air flow at 62% and lower temps you should be fine. I dried my last harvest that way and I never had to worry about them getting over-dried.

You had loads of pests outside, so just stick with the neem in veg and the iso/water in flower along with the dish soap spray and you'll be fine. Don't use the strong stuff on flowers.

Meant to say moved cherry bomb in under the ufo120 see if she likes this light . It really opened my 3x3 up air movement is key !

I like to trim dry - I think because I'm lazy and I think it's a little less work. But I trim without gloves and wipe my tools and hands with ISO alky-haul after every trimmed every branch. No matter how you do it, its work. I like to grow plants that are super easy to trim. I get trimmers elbow and trigger fingers and a neck ache most of the time. Because wife = slacker. Now looking over shoulder for wife incoming.


If your hanging to dry I just trim all the fans off and hang up the plant and wait for 3-5 days depending on RH in the house. The higher the longer it takes. Usually in the winter it's pretty dry say 30RH so plants dry in closer to 3 days. In spring/summer/fall I put them in the AC living space and they usually take another day or so.

You can point a small fan on hanging plant if you worry about mold and I always
worry.

Don't worry about the RH in the fridge. It's always going to be high. That's how we get the slow part of the low and slow. The fridge goes thru a thaw and freeze cycle pretty regular and thats why its humid in there. There's a heater somewhere in the fridge that thaws ice so it doesn't build up. I dried buds in the fridge for 3 weeks while we were out of town. All was well when we got back home. Worked amazingly well. Just no room in there when we are home. lol.

Quick bomb update

Week 8 mid flower I choose the two Thc bomb I looked at the calyx areas on a few different colas and seen tad amber to liking in hopes I pulled it at right time feel good though. Maybe I could have went few more this is learning curve.

My plants got hurt all purple monkey balls , white widow x atf, white cookies x atf , Dutch delight and cherry bomb the least .

But from dish soap to foilar feeding to the bug b gone treatment I gave the plants all edges are browning ?

So backed off on food best I could and no pest detected but looks sad droop . Hope in few days they bounce back kinda sucks taking it back to basic and shooting mil .25 only for nutes bloom
And micro and 2 mo cal mag instead of going more it’s hetter to under feed they say .

Learning learning .

Speaking of @bobrown14 thank you for that heaping knowledge of aphids and wasp and pine trees and
More . Truly remarkable and thank you for taking the time to look after a brotha .
