Thank you keltic. :battingeyelashes: :Love: Let's see how they're doing today.

Daily Update: Day 55 & 57

Aside from the essential oil foliar torture of the autos and a Brix foliar for the Criticals, nothing much going on except that rush to harvest by those autos. :slide:

The photo tent and Fantasmo Express. Lifted the light up a couple notches and gave everyone a quick spin under the lights. The Fantasmo Express smells amazing! It's all I can do to stay away from her. The pistils have almost all changed and I bet I could snip a ...........NO!!! :laughtwo:

The auto tent, plugging along. I think the Med GOM 1.0 may finish up at the same time the Fantasmo Express will. They seem to be almost neck-to-neck.

image9895.jpeg


Auto Jack Herer is beginning to really stack the flowers now. Still no signs of any trichomes, but she's a pretty thing, that's for sure.

The Dark Devil Auto is beginning to do a rush of pistil change now.

There's my favorite baby. :Love: Makes me droll just looking at her. :laughtwo:

image9901.jpeg


That's it for today. On to Callanetics now. I hope to see some of you later while I take some breaks. Things are getting exciting in the study hall, and I'm trying to get everything out of the way so I can get back there. Lol!

My expectation is that you've already been busy spreading joy, so keep it up. Admit it, your life improves every time you make that outreach, doesn't it? Good, that makes me smile. :cheesygrinsmiley: We're making a difference just by being.

:Namaste:

I just love that Dark Devil, Sue. Man that's a pretty girl

Pictures really don't do her justice Noob, and the smell..... Ahhhhh.... :laughtwo: She's in transition now and she'll become even more beautiful as she bulks up and the pistils fade back. This one's on track to be a real stunner.

The next one I'm topping earlier and training like arteekay does. I should be able to double the yield with the next one. :battingeyelashes: This one got away from me.
 
Daily Update: Day 56 & 58

I spent most of the day keeping my daughter company at the hospital waiting for her partner's father to have surgery, so thank goodness there wasn't anything I needed to do except give the photo tent dwellers a spin under the light and fill the reservoir under the Auto Jack Herer, which is still drinking faster than I'm getting water in there. :straightface: Be more attentive Susan.

image9949.jpeg


The Fantasmo Express is coming down in the morning, breeder timelines be damned. This baby's ready and trichomes are turning amber, a development SweetSue doesn't care for at all. I like the zippy, edgy and slightly frenetic cerebral high of all cloudy.

Such lovely structure to these trichomes, eh? :slide: I keep thinking "the most sativa-dominant strain offered by Mephisto Genetics." :woohoo: In about a week I'll be in a position to see what that really means. :battingeyelashes:

image444.png


image9952.jpeg


I went right out the door this morning before I had a chance to open the tents or I'd have caught how thirsty the Auto Jack Herer was and topped off that reservoir before leaving. I completely forgot about it yesterday. :straightface: That oversight has been amended, and I'll be more consistent from now on.

I got in there with the loupe and checked the trichomes on the Med GOM 1.0. She's not as close as I thought. Most of her trichomes are still clear. That's good news, because she'll bulk up now as those mature. She's a mass of trichomes under those big, gorgeous fans.

image9953.jpeg


image9954.jpeg


You have to forgive me here. I got a little carried away with my Dark Devil Auto. :laughtwo: The pistils are progressing nicely through the change. Her trichomes are about 50/50 clear/cloudy, so we have a couple more weeks to go. I'm really loving what this Timber Vero 240 is doing for this plant. The addition of the CFLs has improved the development of the lower buds. I count all of two popcorn buds on this specimen. Everything else is thick, dense flower balls. :yahoo:

There, all done. Wasn't that fun? :laughtwo: I can't get enough of the Dark Devil Auto. A dozen times a day I walk over there and stare in amazement. I sure hope I can get two ounces out of her. With everything else that'll get me through to the next harvest. Next planting is on Sunday, so seeds get dropped into water tomorrow. Time to make the final selections. I'm thinking Strawberry Blue, Carnival, Dark Devil Auto and Crossroads for a start. I'll get the timing down better as I progress. By the next planting I'll be on a roll.

I'm not sure I'll do any cloning right now. The only plants I have that I'd be cloning are both high CBD, and I don't know if I'll need them at this time. I'm pretty certain the harvest of the two Criticals will be sufficient for another cycle and I'd prefer to build up my stock of sativas. You notice the list above only has one auto, my signature DDA. I need the experience of running photos and that time is now.

I stumbled into a YouTube channel today titled "Facts, Irish People" that was some of the funniest stuff I've come across in years, so I'm going to treat myself to an evening of fun and laughter and get lost in there. :laughtwo: I've been working too hard lately, and some levity will balance that out. Tomorrow I'll be fresh-faced and rarin' to go at the Study Hall again. For tonight it can function for the most part without me.

You all have a delightful end to your day. Keep spreading that joy around. I was sitting in the surgical waiting room today watching those Facts videos and trying not to scream with laughter, so joy was oozing out all over anywhere I went. :laughtwo: It's good to laugh so hard your sides ache, isn't it?

I'm going back in now. LOL! I'll be seeing you around the yards as well. I can only laugh that hard in spurts. No need to break something. :rofl:

:Namaste:

Fantasmo Express, Into The Dark

I was up until 5 this morning, which means I slept until almost 10 AM, too late to do a sunrise chop, my preferred method. I was thinking, give her one more day, possibly two, and let her dry out really well, when it occurred to me that that drying out time could be done in absolute darkness and possibly ramp up trichomes at the same time.

This space looks to be the best location in the apartment for this time out. I pulled my shirts out (priorities, right? :laughtwo: ) to make room.

image9979.jpeg


All ready to go.

image9983.jpeg


image9986.jpeg


Monday morning, bright and early following 48 hours of complete darkness, she gets pulled out, photographed and chopped.

image9984.jpeg


This left more space for the photos to spread out. I could almost hear them sigh with relief. :laughtwo: Looking in I can see it's a day for drenches.

image9985.jpeg


I've always wanted to test this out on my own.

We haven't seen the outside of your tent in awhile... how stealthy are you in daily use?
Click to expand...

I keep it stealthy Rad. If someone's coming up I throw the switch and everything goes dark and quiet, and shift the shelf back in front so it looks like it's been there all along. The closet has a curtain that closes it all off from view. No one comes up here but immediate family though.
