Cut a test bud today. I think I am going to harvest. The test bud had some seeds, that sucked.....
But only 4 vape hits and my toast is buttered.....I'm going to keep some of these seeds as I like the size of this plant and the way it grows.

I will. Sucks having seeds, but its good that I made it to harvest. My next plant is about two to three weeks behind and my sativa, I don't know, but it looks like its main bud will be about ten inches!
Congrats on the seedless grow. When I chop this tommorrow, I'm going to pull out the other two plants and clean and dry the inside of the cab in case there is some rogue pollen in there.
Then i can go ahead and pop one of my clones in there and pop my NL auto in my veg cab.

Well, the deed is done. This is the harvest minus the test bud, which dried out to 3.2 grams. I will post my dry weight once it dries. Hope it doesn't end up smelling like hay. That hermy plant did, but it was harvested way early and i didn't trim and put it in the jar too early. The smell is coming out now though....

Great job man, I know that even hermie ladies can "F*ck you in the ass"!! :mrgreen:

+rep buddie!!

Cheers!
Thanks man! Yes they can....Luckily, i think the other 2 in the cab are far enough behind that they didn't get affected. The buds are already twice the size of these! Some of that could be the strain too though.

Yeah. well hopefully I cleaned everything good enough sui that my next two plants don't get pollinated. If they don't, I'll pull almost twice as much off them. The buds are huge!

Second plant harvested today. My sativa is looking weird though. The buds aren't as dense as I would expect this far along. I made a different post about that though. Anyway, here is plant 2

Looks like you may have chopped to early, to me that is.

I may have, but I liked my last plant with no amber, and this one had what looked like cal/mag and I needed the room to scrog a sativa that I'm having issues with and it helped make room to pop my nl auto (the first real seed I have). The buds were just stalled out.

Cedar you may have given me an idea for my small chambers of my cab....I think I need to revise my light fixture to maximize space....How much do those light sockets that plug into the power strip cost ?

Also: How many 23/26 watt bulbs can you fit on one strip ?

thanks, SC

oh ya, I like your avatar...Have you ever seen "Skippy" from Ed Bassmaster ?

In those normal sized strips, you can fit 4 if you use y adapters and put the long side of the bulbs towards the plant. If you use the 40 watt ones, they add up pretty quickly in watts. I just put screws at different heights so its easy to slide the power strips off and move them up and down.
The socket adapters are around $2.
I haven't seen Skippy, I'll look it up.

oh yeah, I scored this old stereo cabinet on the curb yesterday. I'm tuning it into a dual veg/flower cabinet. It has fully open speaker grills in the front, so I just built the light baffle behind the grills. They have those windshield protectors and construction foam board for a buck. So I used foam board for the baffles and am going to cover the entire interior with those reflective windshield things. Check out the progress so far:
That's weatherstrip around the edge and I'm hoping the one on the lid will seal the light from one chamber from getting to the other. It's going to be hard to test for light leaks. I'm thinking I will put a camcorder in there, press Record and shut the lid, then check the video...




This is a shot of the finished baffles with the reflective material

I like the new cab. I'm with you ghost on that amber note. I need to get high and still function I hate that locked in place stone.

Yeah. That upbeat high is better during the day. That's the great thing about growing your own. I haven't bought anything but couch lock weed forever. But I can damned sure harvest and cure mine exactly how I want. lol

I like that cabinet you got....I have a multi-chamber cab....Yep, I basically just put the video on on my smart phone and put it in there...You should be good with that idea....Looks like you are using the same weather stripping stuff the seal as I did.....The only problem I find is that my cab doesn't close tight enough so I have been using a piece of duct tape to keep it closed tight....But yours closes from the top....You should be golden there.

Hey, did you check out Skippy on youtube ? lol

here's a couple of pics of Skippy

They couch lock your ass to get the largest yield. Yeah, you can wait for them nugs to get really fat but by that time you got too much amber for my taste.

Ok. Cab is done, badass and stealth as fuck.....pics incoming later. There is no light coming out except where I haven't put one if the fan baffles on.
