It took a good 3 months for my wedding cake to peak to a Euphoric moon aged day dream and really change characteristics . How about you?

My cured weed is the same as the dried stuff next to it after however many months my previous run was harvested. I have grapefruit kush cured and just dried. Cured still smells a touch better, and burns better in a joint. As a bong smoker I do not notice much difference.
They really have the same effects upon smoking to me, but I am still relatively new to growing, so my curing and drying could be to blame.

Yeah , I have over 15 years of growing experience. It takes time kid. Keep up the good work!

But I love seedies! It's my fave part. I always start too many then give them away!

It takes 8 weeks for you to get mature ladies? See, I bet that's temps. I get alternating nOdes at week 4 or 5 every time. But my room is always warm. I hear LED like low 80s!? Mine are ready to flip as soon as I clear the hanging plants from the flower tent. So I think the oldest ones are 5 weeks now, youngest exactly a month (the cannarado twins).

Edit: no, but me and the guy with the vape pen are doing the bill and calibrating the system. Ac so soon

I gotta find a way to increase my heat then. I'll try running my lights less dimmed and higher up. The temps were great for keeping my dwc buckets under 70.

Lol great description. My wedding cake has been curing for four months, taste is amazing and it takes so little to get me messed up!

Wow, nice work, very impressive.

For some reason your title reflexively reminds me of a 7-layer burrito. Yes, my munchies are all your fault.

We respect the munchies here. Hahaha

Critical mass and skunk are still hanging. Critical mass should be jarred monday, skunk might get the shit stick, she will be finishing drying right after my surgery, so she may end up crumbly and for concentrates.

My little ladies are all grown up! Flipping them Monday. Snapping a few necks in the meantime.

The ones in the picture that were just cropped are cannarado, twins. They're growing similarly.

@BudmanTX Here is our little girl to be pollen donor. She's surprisingly happy for just having all of her branches chopped off the other day.


Peace.

Moving everything around before flip. I am gonna take some suckers off this afternoon. Trying this whole lollipop business this run, if only a little bit.

Got big tent set up with the 'radio Twins, and Blue Cindy:

Little tent set up with Pistash and Lemon pineapple:


You may see lemon looking a tad wonky. I lopped off a fasciated branch, then bent her around afterwards. I hope the rest of her stops mutating.


Bless this stress.

Looking good 'round here! What's the plan with the solo cup baby plant?

I am scrolling but couldn't find it.... Happy Mondaze

Oh, @BudmanTX likes experiments, so I am gonna turn her into a boy and either open pollinate the grow, or at least dust a branch of each. She should stretch and only be 5 inches, so a legal little pollen dropper. She gets her second STS bath on Wednesday, then flipping her with the rest.

yes i always love a good experiment..........this should be interesting.....


one method i've seen done for pollination is the paper bag method.....


ok where are the taco's...........

So once I am done with the STS course and she has balls, put a bag over her so it doesn't blow around? I love that!

yep or you can use it for targeted pollination too.......like for a specific branch only....this way you don't pollinate the whole grow.....just one branch...

As Rsawr is wont to say... Flippy flippy wheeeee!!!
Big tent this morning as of the timer switch:

Left to right is twins, twins but lanky, blue cindy

Little tent this morning:

Lemon pineapple on the left, pistash on the right.

The little solo cup is gonna flip in a few more days, so she is off in my blurple box under 24 hour light with some cuttings I need to give away. She gets another sts bath today.

The edibles are strong today. Forgive me if I am a few inches above ground.

Looking good, chica.....

Haha I dig the energy. The flippy flippy wheee made me laugh

Nice happy plants. When you STS bathe the plants are you covering the soil with foil or plastic?
I guess it doesn't matter much but if you re-use soil it's wise to avoid getting anything in your soil

Happy Wednesday

The solo cup plant is the only one getting sts! But that's a good heads up. I didn't even think about soil contamination from it.
Happy wednesday right back! :]

I flipped the STS plant as well, after the little bottom nodes started to take off. It has a really nice dense rootball in that cup. I hope she reverses without a hitch.


It looks so sad. You can still see the scars from her debranching.

Peace!

One week after flip. They noticed. Stretchy time is always fun to watch. Got pistils on all the big 5. No gender on dj sts flippy.
Big tent:


Little tent:

Here you can see where the third branch that had fasciated was chopped off of lemon pineapple. You can also see some traits of fasciation on the lower parts of the smaller branches as well. Several clusters of three fan leaves in there. Don't yet know if the tops are gonna do it, but the larger stalk is acting exactly like an untopped plant, so even if I have to cut off her weird mutant add-on branches, she should still yield well for me.


I have never lollipopped, but I did my best immitation of it to the ladies.
So if I read correctly, I go in for the rest of the suckers in another 2 weeks after stretch is done, then let what's left develop.

Wish my puppy Whiskey well if you like big dumbos. Peace and chonkin rips.

Looks really nice in there. I think you've got a good plan -
Some people do 21 days after flipping for their second cleanup.

Me personally I just react to the plants and remove the leaves to 'shape' the plant how I intend..
But my style lately is a bit more relaxed.

Then again, I haven't grown for weight in a long time so I wouldn't listen to me

Keep it green RswArraw!! (I always try to say the name but end up jumbled lol)
