Update and some pics from the gardens…

Veg tent is holding the next round of 2x 7gal, JTR x BB clone on left and PPP x BB from seed on right. Flipped the lights to 14/10 yesterday to start the stretch. They’ll be at this for ~7-9 days. Both responded well to all the training and have quite a few bud sites between them, should be monsters in a week or two :)

Veg cabinet is just holding a bunch of clones, a few seedlings and up-coming veg plants, they’ll have to hold in here for a week or so when I get the next round going and free up the veg tent. The 2 gal JTR and Harlequin will get up-potted to 7 gal’s and veg for ~3 weeks as soon as the tent is available.

The LED tent has that PPP x BB pheno 2 at Day 29. Hit a couple of branches (red tape) with some PPP x BB from the party cup I chopped a couple of weeks ago. Wasn’t concerned about getting a few extra seeds so it’s a bit of a mess in there - lol. Other than getting a few seeds, this will likely all go to hash, not seeing or smelling anything special here.

A couple of shots from the flower room. First pic going into the room is the 4x 5gal Blue Dream’s. They are at Day 32 and stacking up some nice buds/colas. Should be a nice haul from those 4. Second pic facing the door are the 2x Blue Pyramid’s and 1x THC Bomb. Blue Pyramid’s are pretty well done, they’ll go another 3-5 days, maybe a bit more, depending on how amber they start going, THC Bomb can go another week or so.

Got a shot of the Blue Pyramid showing the purples, nice colour on these towards the end :)

CMH flowering update... Day 49/7 weeks for the Blue Pyramids and they're done! Day 35/5 weeks for the Blue Dream's.

First full run with those 630/660nm reds for 10 minutes before the main lights come on, seems to have knocked about a week off the cycle, ran these for ~8 weeks last time and they look more mature at 7 weeks this run!. Not sure if it's the reds but they're staying in there, will be able to tell better if they knock some time off with the Blue Dream's as I've run those a few times. I'm picking up the BML 730nm bar today sometime before I take off and will install it this weekend. Interested to see if running the 630/660's 10 min. before lights on, the 730nm's for 10 minutes after light out, and 12.5 hrs. of CMH will finish them even faster, that could knock some of these strains down to as low as 6-7 weeks???

The Blue Dream's (front/bottom 1st pic) are just exploding with bud. Coverage seems to be holding great in this footprint, not seeing any significant drop in growth. All 4x plants seem to be still headed for ~4 zips each. ~3 weeks to go for "about a pound" :hump:

The other 3x3 with the Blue Pyramids & THC Bomb is done. Just gave them some water last night and hoping to get back in town by Friday night to pull them. Busy week with work/travel and lots of other shit going on, the ladies are feeling neglected but looking just fine. A couple of the BP buds, more than ready, about 10% amber in there, should be heavy couch lock material this run which is fine, this is my night time or just get shit faced smoke.

Mountain biking is fun but a lot of work! We have to get you setup with blumats or hempy with a drip system before next ski season. The ladies will appreciate it and feel less neglected ;)

Quick camshot of the flower room. Busy at work and travelling, sucks for the garden #$@% Got the 1x JTR x BB clone and 1x PPP x BB from seed in 7 gal pots in there. They were in the tent for 10 days @14/10 so they started stretching and pre-flowering. Should see buds in a few days on those. Just letting them stretch and I'll even out the canopy this weekend. That PPP x BB pheno is huge, hope it turns out to have some taste and punch, last few have been so-so, just pot, last go with this cross.

The Blue Dream's are doing well at the back, except the first one on the left had/has some form of root issue, one side of it started drying up quick, went within 24 hrs. Cut off any of that side so it's more like 2/3 the original size, huge yield hit :( Will just try and keep it going and salvage what I can from it, figure out what went wrong when I pull it. The other 3 are doing awesome, no issues, colas are getting heavy and leaning.

I chopped the 2x 5gal Blue Pyramid's & 1x 5gal THC Bomb a few days ago at Day 52. Both were more than ready, rough haircut and chop. The Blue Pyramid smells awesome when it's drying. Nice hard chunks of blueberry hash :) Looks like 2 - 2.5 zips or so per plant, not bad these aren't big producers like the Blue Dream or that JTR x BB pheno. These BP's don't produce a ton of bud, mainly popcorn at the bottom, but some nice buds up top and dense as shit. This BP and the Harlequin pheno I run produce smaller but rock hard buds. The THC Bomb pheno isn't bad either, nice smell to this one, just don't have room for it, has to be exceptional to stay in the line up so this is the last run for it.

Flower room shots. The Blue Dream's are at Day 45, should be done by next weekend, around 53-54 days typically under CMH. As of Sunday I'll be away until Thursday so depending on the GF to water them a bit once, told her not to touch the plants, just water them, I swear she can kill a plant by looking at it for too long, and one of them is already half dead with that root issue ;)

Hard to get a good pic of the two 7gal DIY crosses at the back, there's the camera and fan in the way so can't get them in a full shot, took a camshot of them instead. They're at Day 4 of 12/12 and the JTR x BB (bottom-center) is already showing buds! They were at 14/10 for 10 days to get them pre-stretched and pre-flowering while waiting for the CMH to be available though. That 14/10 thing before going 12/12 really doesn't slow them down, they'll likely finish in 7 weeks of 12/12.

Hello fellow RIU'rs, crazy couple of weeks, long hours, travelling, the girls are not likin it! But garden's still alive and some finishers are hung to dry. Some flowering updates.
Blue Dream's "about a pound" run was a fail, they'll pull some nice numbers but wont hit a pound. Lost probably 2/3's of that one I had a root problem with, the others looked good but probably won't pull more than 12-13 zips between the 4x 5 gal. Not the lights fault let's say ;)

Didn't have time to trim them so hung up the Blue Dream's old-school, leaves on. Trimmed and hung the smaller one about 4 days ago and the other 3, 2 days ago. Still a good pile of pot for 315w :)

Some shots of the flower room before pulling the last 3x Blue Dream's: BD's were at Day 55 and the 2x DIY in the 7gal pots were Day 14 @12/12.

Closer look at the up-coming Blue Ripper clone in a 7gal. Huge plant, filled in nicely, lots of flowering sites. The other PPP x BB pheno sucks, huge plant but nowhere near the amount of bud sites, no significant smell. Will likely go straight to the hash bin unless it surprises me at the end. These 2x DIY's will likely finish in 7 weeks of 12/12 as they came in with 10 days @14/10, will be interesting to see the total finishing time but they're both pretty mature for 2 weeks @12/12.

The 2gal LED Tent PPP x BB pheno 2. Turned out alright for a 2gal plant, pretty well filled the tent. Lots of bud sites, but small bud. Just flowered it out because the tent was available. Threw some PPP x BB pollen at a couple of branches to see what comes out. This was Day 52, they'll get some more water tomorrow night and will pull it Monday/Tuesday. Looking like a couple of zips in there for the hash bin if it doesn't have anything special. Smelling not bad though, blueberry/sweeter smell than any previous phenos, funny because it's more sat-dom than any others, go figure.

outstanding as usual GroErr
Cheers and thanks Bob, feeling like I've been neglecting them last few weeks but fortunately they pretty well grow themselves ;) Hope all's well and you're still getting the odd run in, we hit 90F this week her, no skiing/boarding for a few months!

Hope all is well bro, haven't had any updates for a couple weeks now. Prob just busy with work. Have a great weekend bro!
Hey thanks Giggles, hope all's well on your end. Doing fine here, just busy as shit, got 2 new clients that'll keep 3 guys busy for a year, had to get them setup, travelling back & forth to the sites and 12-14 hr. days. Other than the logistics of flying in/out of the US, no complaints though, bills are paid for a while with these jobs ;)

The next couple of rounds and setting up a couple of outdoor plants.

The veg tent has a nice 5gal JTR (center) ready to flip, and an Ok Harlequin in 5gal (left). Think I'm going to run these two under the LEC but the 210w bulb to see what it can do with a couple of 5gal plants. The two on the right are Blue Ripper clones in 2gal that'll end up in 10gal fabrics outdoor, going to see how they do outdoor and will be looking for a 1/2 lb. each minimum from these :)

Veg cabinet has some clones of all strains on the go, including a couple of Blueberry seedlings, hoping one is a male, both too early to tell but one's looking good.

Finally, some good news. Taking Sunday and Monday off with the GF, Niagara Falls, some nice meals, hit the casino and partying like rock stars for a couple of days to celebrate 5 years since my cancer diagnosis with a clean bill of health, fucking eh!
