I neglected to mention I began using Hydroponic Research +Size (flowering amendment) earlier this week. I should have started it 3 weeks ago, so it might not make much of difference this time

However, the buds look fatter today than the 3 days prior

Taken this morning

Dumped old nutes

Fresh nutes @ ~ 300ppm, then added one scoop of +Size to ~ 2.5g

Thinking 10 days left

In ~ 5 days I will dump nutes and go with straight +Size

It has been suggested that I remove the larf to promote larger phatter buds

Since my plant is fed every hour I do not see the need, but in the name of research...

I trimmed over 4 ozs of larf today not including the leafs

I had no idea it was that much

Probably too late for much of a benefit, if at all, but time will tell
Go early, go hard. Big dense tops

Coming down the home stretch

> 80% red hairs

~ 5-7 more days to harvest

Dumped nutes (400ppm) replaced with pure water (20ppm) + ~ 4gms +Size to 2.5g water

The larf is more potent than the original harvest. wtf?

I may have waited too long to harvest first time as she did not develop calyxes, and has not this time either

Since her evil twin Big Mex did, I was/am at a loss to explain, but, it is what it is

You surely know better than I do, but from here she looks like she needs to go for a while longer. How long did she flower? She looks nice!

At least 50% of the white pistils have turned red in just 24 hours

In a few more days, she'll be ripe


I haven't counted the days, which is not 100% anyway.

She started showing pistils on Sep 19th. Keep in mind she's a reveg AND a fast finisher

Plants grown under leds tend to finish ~ 7 days faster

She's not a huge tric producer, however, her evil twin Big Mex sister sure is

Most of the older primary leafs have curled under somewhat. One person suggest nitrogen toxicity

During mid flower, she was sucking way more water causing ppms to rise ~ 30% in 24 hours which would have added considerably more nitrogen

Whew, finished trimming late yesterday

Thought you might be interested to see what my F & D roots look like (no soggy spaghetti here)

Chopped branches are in 2 different areas to dry.

Does not appear to be as much as I projected, but the buds are heavy and tight.

Will take dry bud pics and weight in ~ 7 days
