Week 13
61 days in flower

Yes, it has been eight weeks of flowering but these girls need a little more time.
Today we flushed res and filled with week 10 ( final week ) of Flora nutes with floras
Kool Bloom. I did some research and found out how to tell when to harvest.
I always thought it was when about half the hairs of the buds turned orange
but thats not right.

You look at the resin glands or Trichome's I think they are called. They are clear right now.

When they turn milky then harvest for the best Mind high.
If you let them get Amber you get a body stone from the weed.
I read that in the growers bible.

Well I got a magnyfying glass to see if I could take a pic of them.
This is the best I got.


They look like powder from a distance, Up close you can see the little stocks and a head on the top.

I understand this is where the most resin is, the resin glands are at the bottom of the head.

They are all over the buds and the upper leaves.

The buds are bulking up.




Next grow we have a light Mover. I just picked one up off of Craigs List.

The guy had an Inteli drive 3.5 with the 6 foot bar and the light bar thing,

wanted $95 I thought that was fair. I hear it increases the amount of light
to the lower branches and its like 1.6 times more light. Anyway equals to
like 25% more buds.

So Basicly we are going to drop the sodiums a little lower on the sides and
run that down a six foot rail above two rows of plants in the eight
waterfarms.
We will probaly revamp quite a few things but one thing at a time.
Lights first. Then air. Anyway, more pics!

Dutch Dragon


This Dutch Dragon looks like it took after its father, an Indika called Durban.


From what I understand Its a cross between Skunk and Durban.

Ok, Now without the HID just camera flash.


You can see the indica Dragon in the front. The sativa Dragon upper right and
Atomic Haze on the left.

Here is better shot of Atomic Haze,


This is the Dutch Dragon from above..


Close up of Dragon Bud.


We are going to harvest any week now.




See Ya Next Week!

Great detailed journal, and good job on the grow for your first hydro grow. Thanks for the tip on the (tricicomes?) I have been trying to find threads on them with no luck. I love the way you are patient enough to let a majority of your leaves yelllow during harvest and not worry. Most don't know that is a natural part of the plant using up its reserve sugars to push power to bud grow. Keep it up and good luck on next grow.

Thanks and your right about the yellow leaves. I would be in trouble if I was still veggin. Oh, and I found the proper spelling is Trichome. That may help you find more info. I edited my post. Thanks again

Week 14
68 days in flower

Its Time to flush.
I checked out the buds and the Trichomes are turning a milky white. I accidently
bought floras sheild instead of there flush. I think its called cleen or something.
We just used R/O water ph at 5.0 We will run them for one week. That should do it.

Took a couple pics, used a tape measure so you get a better idea of size...










They were in containers that were 10 inches tall so our tallest one was 32 inches.

Funny, when we started this we thought we could grow a plant 4 or 5 foot tall.
Now I understand that indoor lights just do not supply the light needed to grow
that tall. Our next grow we will have a taller table for them to sit on. It will make
it much eaiser to get to them. This has been a great learning experence.

So, we have our next crop started, We have 4 Snow White females, five Dragon
female Clones and Two Apollo I started from seed but havent sexed yet.

Heres a better shot of my veg cabinet.



Lights; 42 watts LED and 48watts T5 HO. I use a drip system to water the plant on
top as well as the root system. then into a tray that drains through the shelf to a res
on the next shelf.
Here is also my DIY clone machine I set into a prop tray with a tall 7 inch dome.
There is two air sticks about 8 inches long and an aquarium water heater inside.

I veg with under a hundred watts now. No need to cool it but I have 12v intake and
exhaust fans running at 35cfm. There is a window right behind it I open to get fresh air.
The plant on the right is about three weeks from clone.

Closeup of the center shelf, Dragon Mother on the right.



And one of the seedlings, The apollos are on top. They are a couple days older.
The rest are feminized Snow White from Narvana. 4 out of 5 seeds. lost one.
They are 11 days from seed here. I use ro water and a drop of superthrive.
We start feeding at 1/4 strength next week.



The clones are still in the cloner I made. Sort of a bubble cloner but I cut out the
center of the bottom of the net pots, leave a bit on the edge, and drop a rapid rooter
plug in it. That way I can remove the plug and not damage the tap root.

Then I put it in a rockwool cube. They should be about this size in another week.

Out of the eleven we will keep one Snow White as a second mother. (we have a
Dutch Dragon mother now) Flower 3 Snow White, 2 apollo (if we get lucky) and
the best 3 Dutch Dragons out of the five.

All are Sativa mix so we are looking at 10 weeks flower but we are going to start
them a couple weeks early this time.... Hopefully.
