Dstroy's NEW grow journal

nice grow bro,

so what was the final MC g/pg?

Im having issues and think i might not be using enough MC. Im at day 33flower, but the leafs look like shit. im at 4g per/gl right now,

cant wait on the final weight man, looked awesome.

edit:think i found the problem.

copper,cal,potas defi.

well, need more nutes i guess, or PH is whacked.

i guess a copper def looks like nite tox,

So I harvested in stages, and ended up with a little more than 2 1/2 gallon jars of “good stuff”, and five, f.i.v.e. one gallon bags full of trim and buds that were too small or didn’t have enough coloration.

The pheno that I kept weighs more and smells sweeter.

I’ve got trim from my last several grows and I think it’s time for me to process it all in one go so it doesn’t pile up anymore because it’s using a lot of room in my freezer. I’ll just make alcohol tincture out of all of it. I’ve never had to buy as much everclear as I will need for it at once lol good times.

I’m going to decarb with a Sous vide machine, we’ve already got the bags and a sealer because we use that for freezing meat/veggies. Just need the Sous vide machine now, I’ve been wanting to try one for a while. I think I can safely use the water bath to evaporate the alcohol and leave the oil. I’ve got a vacuum pump already so I think I can use that for a vacuum filter and chamber, to improve the color and taste of the oil. I’m not sure how much those two things are so we’ll see if I can swing the price of the filter and vac chamber on top of the $300 or so for the Sous vide machine and accessories. Plus I need to research if that’s even possible, I know the degassing chambers are used for solvents but I don’t know if you can use a vacuum filter assembly to filter thick oil or if I have to do it right after straining the large particulates out of the tincture before condensing.

Got a humble pie in the flower tent, the middle of the plant was suffering from lack of light because I just let it go in the veg tent, it was a busy time for me and I couldn’t keep up with it, trim the harvest that never ended, and meet all of my other time obligations.

There are five plants stuffed in there

And then I ham fisted it into the tent.

These plants are amazing, I snapped so many branches and the middle of the plant was basically dead from lack of light.

It’s still a little fucked but all the new growth looks normal.

The lesson learned from this is: don’t pop seeds and transplant them into HPA 60 days before transplant is available. I think 30 days of veg is plenty in my case.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I also forgot to plug that bucket in after transplanting it so the humble pie didn’t receive water for about ten hours and has completely bounced back.

Day 58 of flowering for the BB, got the chop today. It was a major larf fest. I learned my lesson. Got the “good” stuff hanging, three trays of mids, two of larfy trim, and one of frosty leaves.

They still had white pistils everywhere but the trichs were 80% cloudy and 20% amber on average, so I made the decision to get them down and prep the flower tent for the next plant. I think this next run will go better because the plants in the veg tent are looking nice.

I dissected the rootball on each plant, they looked nice.

All I’m using is MC and some protekt, 6g/gal Mc and 20ml/40gal protekt. 40 gallon res. RO water. Topped up and ph adjusted once or twice a day. I haven’t used mammoth p in a while, need to pick some more up. I add some silica to the res and then I add the mc, which I shake up in a separate container.

I love MC too, I’m getting good results from it and it’s cheap and easy.

Pic is from yesterday, just tucking that mess in the back right under the net as best as I can.

I flipped to 12/12 yesterday but I shifted my light schedule to be on at night, so the ac isn’t running as much during the day.

Good luck with lights at night, I struggled with it cause I'm not night person, or an early morning person so a lot of work was done under a green light, which was annoying.

From 7pm-7am lights will be on. Not bad.

Day 1 of flower for the humble pie.

Pruned the underneath of the plant heavily. Nothing about 2” below the net that I can reach.

Crawled in the tent with the shop vac to clean up. Floor fan bearing sounds like it’s going. I just bought the Honeywell that’s in there a few months ago. Just going to put a hurricane in there like the one in the veg tent.

Day 2 of flowering for the humble pie, they got 24 hours of darkness to get them into their new schedule from 1900-0700

Day 3 of flowering

5/28/18

Day 4 of flowering for the humble pie, gave it a light pruning to keep those bud sites open. Pretty hues on the leaves, she’s a good looking plant when not being abused by me.



All caught up now, this pic was taken right after lights on.

Day 5 of flowering, I fucked up my dates again lol

DVG Humble pie
