Rifleman's - Multi-Strain Auto Grow - 600W - Hydro

Bravo buddy, braaaaavo!

I cant seem to keep mine short.. Bulbs are only inches away and they still stretch more then id like

Until last Tuesday when she was put into the airpot she was about a foot under the 1000w, using her big sister BK as a slight diffuser of the light and heat.
 
Just some photos tonight folks. The top two are the amnesia lemon, 3.5 inches six nodes open, seventh has emerged but is tiny still. Then three shots of ST with a solo cup for size comparison. Finally the top colas in order Q1,ST,BK. Sorry for the sideways photos, I know how to take them properly so all I can say is, yep I did it. <smh...dummy> I also took over a dozen trichome photos of each plant, 90 to 95% cloudy. Not a single amber to be seen anywhere. I don't expect to see any on BK as the previous two never did, but damn, this is becoming ridiculous. I'm gonna go Growchick on them soon no matter what. :)



















 
Day 83

Good Monday morning to you all. Sorry for no update or photos yesterday. I had a little out patient surgery last week and just haven't felt up to doing much with them. The water change yesterday kicked my ass too. BK yellowed herself quite a bit last week...scary how fast. She also has started to get her swell on finally. I switched her from Big Bud to Overdrive yesterday. Q1 is getting a little fatter but I think she is about maxed out. ST...my darling. :) I always have liked girls with a fuller figure, and damn if she doesn't have one. The size of these buds are amazing. Every one of them have swollen to beyond fat and have individual buds reaching up from the clusters like little fat baby arms waving at you. Alas all is not well though. I snipped a nice silver dollar size bud from both Q1 and ST this morning and put them under the scope...still no amber to be seen. None...not one! Damnit. 62 days from first pistils. I know some strains won't turn amber, or so I've read. I expected BK not to turn as the others I grew didn't, and it was obvious when the plants made a turn for the worse and it was time to pull them. However these other two should eventually turn, I mean what's the chance I have three strains with that no amber gene. With my luck, probably. <shrug> I put the cut buds in a paper bag and sat them next to my ballast. I'll sample them in a day or two.

That's about all that is happening here...except for rain all week. At least it isn't going to be cold. I'll post some photos mid week maybe if I get the chance. Until then pull up a rocker on the porch with me and I'll tell you some hairy lies from my misspent youth. :rofl: Peace to you all my friends. :peace:



Edit: Forgot to mention the AL. She got 2 quarts poured around her until i got some run off from the croutons. It was her first drink since last Sunday. Looking to move her to a larger pot at the end of January right before flipping the lights.
 
An amber trichome! My kingdom for an amber trichome!

I felt a little bad about shorting everyone on the photos this week. So here are a few I took tonight. As you can tell I had to take some harvest lust out on Exp. Was more like butchering. :biglaugh:






Q1





ST




BK



Exp

 
A cola photo from each. Q1,ST, BK in order. And could it be...an amber trichome...two even? 65 photos between the three girls this morning and this is the closest I've seen. Unfortunately it is on BK and not one of the others which have already swollen, unlike BK. All photos are clickable for larger image. I am 40 ft away from the tent but can hear the Fiskars calling to me. :)









 
Call me Karnak the magnificent. I have been on the ST train since you first showed her off! Love a thick bud with foxtails.

Everytime I do LA's bud back building the result is a bud gone wild with foxtails. Perfect size lil buds for a pipe. :)
 
Hrmmmmmm it seems I am halfway through flower so maybe I will do some backbuilding!

Only do one side of a plant and make sure to mark which side. Although I am sure you won't have any question which side it was at harvest. :) You'll get hooked on it.
 
I'm going to have to try that trick as well.
Looks awesome Rifleman!
