@GroErr how long do you usually veg. Say like the ripper and harlequin Thanks. Great crop as always.
Hey, depends on the pot size, these recent 3gal runs are typically 3-4 weeks from when they come out of the party cups, typically 2 weeks in 1gal, then the last 1-2 weeks in 3gal. For 5/7 gal's they'll go total 5-6 weeks in veg out of the party cups, usually cups to 1gal, to 2 or 3gal, then 5 or 7gal from there. Cheers.

Loving your work Gro. Scientific as usual. :0)
Cheers JD, in slow mode right now. Just keeping things going indoor through summer in between parties, weddings and the like. Dying to pop some seeds I have ready but too much stuff going on so will bite the bullet and wait it out until I can focus on them.

Party cup super-cropped clones, ready to clone the clones. They'll be cloned just before I go away this weekend for 4 days so I don't have to up-pot or setup anything to water them, lazy man's perpetual ;)

Transplanted the 5x 1gal to 3gal that I wanted to keep, they'll be fine for a few days vegging in 3gal's, typically 4-5 days when first transplanted with a good soaking.

Setup the Claber drip system in the flower room, will soak those 3gal's well before leaving and this will keep them from drying out for a few days. Running it this week, working fine with 4 drippers per pot. The other batch is just about done, 3 will be pulled in the next day or two, one will be pulled just before leaving and the last one will sit in a SIP while I'm away.

Last look at the 5x 3gal's at Day 51 last night. Will pull some tonight and Thursday, leaving only the BR2-4 pheno at back-right for another week or so. That one ran 9 weeks from seed but will likely finish just short of that this round. harlequin back-left corner doesn't look like much behind the others but the two main colas are bent 90 degrees, just can't keep them standing straight even with support - lol by Thursday night the only one left will join the other batch under the COBs as I won't be running the CMH to cover off one light, lots of photons available there to cover it off.

Start of a staggered CMH harvest last night at Day 53. All 3 are nice and ripe and slowed down drinking. One will come down Monday when I get back and the last one will be another week or so. For reference these are 3gal plants, the door is 36" wide and door knob is 37" from the floor...

Got back after 4 days and the Claber drip system did it's job, could have gone another day or two no problems. No drooping and soil was still moist an inch down or so. Will leave that drip system in place with the 4x 3gal to make it easier to take off for a few days. Won't be throwing in any new plants until this round finishes in 4-5 weeks, then back to pheno hunting for an F2 Blue Ripper male in September.

The Plemon and Blue Ripper on the left second pic are competing for bud production. The Blue Ripper is winning for terp production but that's an exceptional pheno in smell & taste, will be hard to find a replacement for that one.

your day 57 blue ripper, you normally harvest right around this time. but i notice it has new white hairs on top. do you ignore that and just check the trichs on the main part of the bud?

No that's an F2 pheno that's running for the last time. First generation clone and ran 9 weeks form seed so it'll go another week at least. Both of those 2 remaining one's at Day 57 will go at least 60-64 days. Not running them again, the first 2 phenos I pulled at Day 53 are the keepers. These were just what I had ready to run with the first 3 I pulled, good phenos smell/taste wise but not even close to the keepers.

Quick look at the outdoor gals, outdoor for 7 weeks now. 2x 15gal taking 3' x 9' side by side and about 36" high. Been able to keep the height down and they keep spreading outwards. Still vegging, FIM'd them all last week and they're just recovering/splitting the tops. Second pic shows a close-up of the stalk on one, nice strong root systems on both should take them through to finish with no probs.

Love these shots (screen shot from my phone), amazing how only 65w of 630/660nm can light up the whole room. This runs for 10 minutes before lights-on, then 10 minutes of 40w 730nm at lights out. Liking what I'm seeing between this and running negative DIF for the last couple of rounds. Quick finishes and getting the most out of whatever strains I'm throwing in there. Will be keeping this config running, not seeing any downside other than watering more due to higher temps during lights-out.

Right On Brother GroErr I Like Your Style. I Myself Have A 5000K Grow With 730nm My Damn Self. I Plan On Running The 730's For 5-10 Minutes at Lights Out. Ive Also Given Thought To Adding A Few 630 And 660's To Run Before Lights On. Funny How Great Minds Think Alike :P
