Vanilla Kush - Mekong High - Blueberry - White Widow - Hydro Race to the Finish

CF

My plants are in the 85 deg range and about 75 at night.
Hood is not vented, but we do have a fan right above it pushing the hot air out and an exhaust fan venting the room.
Plans this week are to vent a close A/C duct into the room. Might as well use it since the A/C is on in the house anyway.

Not sure if you checked out my journals, but my VK cola was HUGE. It ended up with some bud rot in the middle and we had to chop the top. The Papaya had it too.

And my previous grow to that was Northern Light. It went 18 wks flowering and probably could have gone more. The trichomes never seem to want to get more than 10% amber.

All good smoke, but not award winning cannabis cup grade that was expected.

I love the Tudes promos. Would like to take advantage of one each month, but we have enough seeds to keep us busy for a few more grows. Unless something really special comes along.

That is a good plan to duct into your room your existing home AC.

I always start my flowering countdown when I actually see the hairs start comming out. So my 16 week last grow could have considered 18 weeks by some people. I think if you would have kept the plant in 12/12 longer. The triks should have turned more amber.

I always get some bud rot on every grow. It is always in my plants that have the thickest bud growth. I usually have to cut out about a quarter ounce of buds from my harvest to bud rot. It is very minimal. Next time I buy seeds I am going to go with a mold resistant strain.

Alot of the Indica strains are crossed with Sativa. I believe that some plants the Sativa could be more dominant and cause the plants to need longer periods to flower. I am not an expert. :thumb:
 
Skyrocket, this plant flowered 18 weeks. Could have gone more, but it didn't want turn any more amber, so we picked her.

What a great looking plant!!!!!!! Beautiful!!!!! I wish I would have taken pics from my last grow when I let them flower that long. I am surprised that the plant would not get any more amber though.....How much bud weight did you get out of that plant? :bravo:

My Mekong High and my Blueberry are almost 18 inches already and the White Widow is already 12 inches. The Vanilla Kush is just growing like a little bush. It has the same folage yet is still only about 8 inches tall.

I don't mind if you post your pics here. I would love to see your Vanilla Kush plants!!! I always wanted to be able to grow outside.....Someday soon I hope!!!;)
 
Papatater, I am looking forward to see your pics!!

Here are my plants. They have fully recovered. The Blue Berry and the Mekong High are about 21 inches tall. The White Whidow is 13 inches and the Vanilla Kush is only 9 inches but very stalky. I am going to lights out tomorrow and start the 12/12 on Sunday!:bong:

The plants have now been in veg for 37 days. I turned the lights off at 6:30 am and flushed the system. I refilled the res with tap water and adjusted the PH. I plan on flipping back on tomorrow at 10am. Then I will change the res with a 600 ppm mixture.
My Blueberry and Mekong High are about 22 inches tall. The White Widow is about 14 inches and the Vanilla Kush was a little over 10 inches but is very stout. This is the tallest I have let plants grow in veg before flipping to 12/12. :bong:
 
Today I turned the lights on at 10am. I changed the nutes. My goal was 600ppm and I ended up with 720ppm. I think the plants can take it. This whole grow I have been about 100ppm heavy on the nutes every change and the plants have seemed to do well.

Instead of my original plan of going with the 600 watt and then moving up to the 1000 watt when the plants get bigger. I decided to go straight to the 1000 watt! That will provide plenty of light to my plants.

The plants are looking great...
