Hey, X! How goes it my man?! Look below to hear what happened....Cool - can't wait to hear how the Firecracker turned out for you!
QueenTokeLove, WELCOME to my grow, dear lady! I hope you enjoy it here, and you can always ask me anything, I love to help others! And I'm very humbled that you came to look at my garden as well,,,It's so very nice to meet you, chica! Always nice to see more chicks on here! Look below to see my firecracker review...Can't wait to hear about the firecracker...
Hellooooooooooo GT!! How's God this morning? lol! I hope you don't mind my little joke, I meant no disrespect! Anyways, thanks for your constant brotherly love and support of me and my grow...Just feeling your support and love, my friend, really makes me feel like your spirit is really here with me and i'm not really alone.looks like they may have worked better than expected, lol....
Uh, ok, got worried with my babies. So I took the 100w so called grow lights out and put all clfs in their place. 4 14w which when I looked it up said 14w is equal to 750 lumens plus I have one 23 w and a 38w...I hope that is good enough for now until I can get a few more.
Queen, the longer you veg, the bigger the plant, and the bigger the yield. A veg period is not required, though, and some people will grow 12/12 straight from seed.
That being said, when you flip the switch to 12/12, you can expect your plants to double or even triple in size. So, you need to figure out how much height you have to work with (don't forget to consider the lights!) and then, by the time they get to about 1/3 of that height (for an unknown pheno), I'd make the flip.
You may find that it only doubles in size in flower. If so, on your next grow, you can veg a little longer. You can also use LST, Supercropping and other training techniques to help control the height of the plant.
Really? About the veg cycle, so why am I reading 4-6 weeks? This must be the time it will take for the plant to mature, yes? Height will not be a problem for me since I don't have a low ceiling, width maybe considering I have 6 plants but can place some on the floor of the closet with additional lighting when the time comes. I am considering starting the flowering cycle maybe Friday, if not the beginning of next month for sure. I will post a pic of the closet in the near future...
"QueenTokeLove, thanks for stopping in and asking for that help...I'm so sory I was out all day taking care of business, if I was here and had been online this am and all day like usual, I certainly would have answered you immediately, I swear..Our brothers on here did what we all strive to do here, and just jumped in and tried to help you since I hadn't responded, and that's why I LOVE this site"
Rv, not a problem, the thread is very informative though the conversion of watts to lumens is still confusing to me. And some of watts I am using were not mentioned here.I guess cuz some of the ones I am using for now are kinda low as in 14w which converts into 750 lumens, 5 of those and a 26w and a 23 w. The 14s equal out to 3500 lumens, I think and not sure about the last two.
I also have fallen in love with this site. I also appreciate how people jumped in to help, that means a lot to me. I won't hold it against you that you have other things to do which require your time. Being that I am disabled, I spend a lot of time at home and it is good to have something worthwhile occupy my time other than gaming. And at the end being able to see the fruits of my labor. I have been known to kill fish and plants usually due to over feeding but since MJ is such a durable plant I may stand a chance.
"ALso, QTL, I personally think that for the start of vegging like where you are at the moment, what you got already that you described, will be fine for now....I promise."
I had read here or somewhere that it takes 4-6 weeks for the veg cycle, am at the middle of the 6th week but not sure if I should take it longer or not. Due to the fact that honestly I don't know if I have Indicas or Sativas. Yes, I read the threads on them and have them bookmarked but still hard for my amatuer eye to tell. Maybe you can check out my gallery or thread called Hello to let me know. Any can. I think I might have 2 Indicas since they seem short and stubby
Xena, is she named after the Warrior Princess? I use to love that show! I know for my first run I prolly will not be no where near her size. Maybe in the future after a few grows under my belt. At this point I will just be happy to finish the grow and see how it turns out. I have 6 plants total, the tallest is 16 in and the shortest one is only 11 in.
Also thanks to you guys who jumped in to help and posted links. Some of them I had already had bookmarked and one just really confused the hell outta me. Mainly because I suck at measuring. Maybe I should post a pic of the closet I am working out of, idk.
Cut the product, trim it per your preference, but don’t dry it until the stems snap. Take it down while the stems still have some flex, but the product feel dry on the outside. This is a perfect opportunity to drop the dry-feeling flowers onto a screen and collect prime-quality kief that would otherwise get lost in the jar.
Jar the product, along with a Caliber III hygrometer. One can be had on Ebay for ~$20. Having tested a number of hygrometers – digital and analog – this model in particular produced consistent, accurate results. Then, watch the readings:
+70% RH – too wet, needs to sit outside the jar to dry for 12-24 hours, depending.
65-70% RH – the product is almost in the cure zone, if you will. It can be slowly brought to optimum RH by opening the lid for 2-4 hours.
60-65% RH – the stems snap, the product feels a bit sticky, and it is curing.
55-60% RH – at this point it can be stored for an extended period (3 months or more) without worrying about mold. The product will continue to cure.
Below 55% RH – the RH is too low for the curing process to take place. The product starts to feel brittle. Once you’ve hit this point, nothing will make it better. Adding moisture won’t restart the curing process; it will just make the product wet. If you measure a RH below 55% don’t panic. Read below:
Obviously, the product need time to sweat in the jar. As such, accurate readings won’t be seen for ~24 hours, assuming the flowers are in the optimal cure zone. If you’re curing the product for long-term storage, give the flowers 4-5 days for an accurate reading. If the product is sill very wet, a +70% RH reading will show within hours. If you see the RH rising ~1% per hour, keep a close eye on the product, as it’s likely too moist.
