Weekly Update: Flowering tents - Friday, July 6, 2018
In tent # 1 Zam x Pan is growing at a rediculous rate. Lol! She's drinking every day, starting today. As I was finishing up the picture-taking part of this update I was compelled to stop and visit her, to find her drooping badly.
I had a feeling she might be a thirsty one.
Yeah..... I was better about the air conditioning today.
I just love the way her tops are developing in little groupings.
I expect she'll take that two weeks Morglie warned me about to get to blooming. I'm in no rush.
Next door we have the struggling soil girls. I'm seriously considering switching them to nutrients for their final month. I don't feel confident about getting them through any other way. Haven't figured out yet how to pull that off. I suppose start with a very diluted mix and slowly work up.
It pretty much stays around 86 in this tent. Occasionally I'll get it down to 84, but it's rarely any better. I have venting issues I'm dealing with that may require a new box for the fan and filter.
Black D.O.G. is suffering the most right now. I'll either make her a kelp and EWC tea or start her on a low dose of the MegaCrop, but whatever I decide it'll happen tomorrow.
She's trying really hard. Her energy reminds me of the first hempy girls I grew with Osmo +.
Hmmm..... somewhere around here I have some Yum Yum nutrients for organic soils.......Nope, gave it to J with the rest of the stuff for LOS. I think MegaCrop may win out.
Royal Gorilla is showing new signs of stress. I don't think it's the spinosad, just a lack of ability of the soil to give her what she's asking for. They've been getting water and teas, but I don't think it's doing much for them anymore.
Frost is nowhere near what I'm hoping to have by harvest.
Tent # 3 is an olfactory playground. This clone of the DC is putting out some amazing terpenes. My Jamaican friend, the intended reciepient of this plant, will be most pleased. I'm thinkin' he could use a slice of DC cob too.
They're feral in appearance. Lol! I've grown to love their wild beauty. I'd like to get one tested someday to see what it is I'm growing.
I'm still tweaking.
She's sporting the nicest DC colas I've grown to date.
Her tentmate is turning into a sexy show-stealer, isn't she?
The girl knows how to pose.
One last indulgence.........
I'll be calibrating the pen tomorrow and starting my vegging Red Diesel on the MegaCrop. Looking at the sad soil girls, I'm seeing a similar drink for them.
And the mason jar vacuum accessories came in. WooHoo!
Now I'm all set for the next Red Diesel harvest. I'll be trying a new fermenting process Tangwena shared with us where you sweat buds in the jar and ferment them without cobbing. Gosh, this adventure keeps getting better and better.
That's the end of this week's nickle tour my friends. Thank you so much for stopping to share my joy and let the girls have their moment to shine. I'm hoping to find some time to visit some yards this weekend. The med threads got a little busy and I'm feeling a lack of flower time. There are many stops calling for my attention. Hopefully yours will be one I reach.
When I was in San Diego Doob had me shaking, I was so high. 
Pj. How sweet, a new companion for the journey.
