Even that last pic, you can see the excessive N, that’s pretty new I would say in the past couple weeks. I got lost trying to figure out if it was a N prob or a relation to N like calcium. That’s where the just “hold on” came in haha.

In other news, I can’t get my cold storage room mini split condenser to fire up, looks like my drying room of 60f 60rh is out the window for now, it’s at 70 60. Think it was @Gemtree drying advice I was going to try this time. I cut enough ripe buds to hold my smoke stash over till it’s all done.

After work maintenance, haven’t topped up for 2 days, was happy to see it down 10 gallons and the ppm held at 650, they are eating nicely. Topped up 5, letting it ride on that. Going to take a few ripe tops tonight off the 8 top PC, there’s no new hairs, has a few faded tops close to the bright spot in the room, they look tired and ready, also the frostiest of the bunch so far. Letting the bigger tops go longer yet. Will try and grab pics. This is in my target tonight, couple of them. Shit pic I know, been staring at this hps for 2 months now, plants are 4 months old.

16 top getting close, I took a small tester last night, it’s hanging with a couple other colas from wed. I set harvest the first week of August, some will be longer, one will be sooner for sure, this 16 top can prob be taken anyday. I’m thinking I might do a double harvest and let some shaded buds shine.

Do you like that PC? I've done the CK before. I want to keep that same structure with better terp profile. I wanna try the peyote critical

The plant themselves are very resistant and vigorous, I have 2 phenos, one is smaller bud structure with more trics and the other is giving off pop cans, more fruity smell to both, nothing strong. The above pic is PC after 5 days, it’s smokable and isn’t even bad at 5 days so I’m guessing it will be some nice smoke in a couple weeks. Neither have the structure of the CK that is in there with them. Both PC are still flowering right now.

Critical kush was like beasters. Just super dense high thc. I loved it. Easy to grow, heavy yielder. But the smell was lacking

Mines a beast, 4 15 to 20” colas, it’s the plant I smell when I get close to the room, kinda sour smell, it’s about 6ft right now. Not sure terps really on any of them yet. PC would be more citrus if I had to decide right now, I will know in the next couple weeks, I have a cola of each drying and will cut most PC colas this week coming up. Starting week 9 today.

Post 43, that cola has that musky kush taste coming out, that was one I cut earlier this week. Shits so sticky I have to shake the buds off my fingers.

Can confirm, nice and potent. Here’s a hack for anyone cutting branches at different times. Bread tags on the stems, works great, won’t fall off, easy to check the hang date. Managed to find some equip to recharge the walk in cooler, hope it works, will be a good dry then and I can cut the 16 top this weekend.

Don’t mind the working hands, another bud that snapped off today. Smoked it, may as well call it brown lipstick. :lol: Week 10 coming up, will be cutting some nicer tops over the next few days. Will also more likely be doing a double harvest. Pretty decent smoking for 6 day dry, still working on the mini split, holding off harvest until fixed.

I can’t tell you how many times I opened the door this week with snips in hand, everything survived another work week. lol.. tonight might be a different story. Here’s a top of the 8 top, not a big producer but the test buds proved potent and tasty.

Critical kush seemed to ripen quick, it’s on my hit list for chopping. Tired of looking at it, it’s in the door way and around 7 feet tall, was finally able to get the dry room refrigeration unit going, I’m able to drop the room to 32f if I wanted, I’m set for harvest now, week 10 coming up.

At some point I did run a bunch of numbers, I can’t remember what I was trying to achieve at the time but I know I ended up with a npk of 1.6-3.15-2.8 for flower with Lucas calmag and big bud. Biggest dose I ever gave of calmag was 375ml in the 75 gallons. I keep it light nowadays. Would be interested to see, my pre 98 bubba is taking the same leaf, it’s getting dark.
Those pre 98 BK's are beautiful plants. First two outdoors about a week or two from flower. 7/10.001.jpg

Very nice, I grabbed some fems awhile back and tossed one in, I plan on bringing it to the middle this weekend to let it finish, it’s prob 3-4 weeks away. The young cola reminds me of a nerf football, I let this one grow natural but had cramped quarters, the “tossed one in” is never a good idea..

Rooms a mess, critical kush is breaking under its heavy cola weight, going to string it up tonight, took the 8 top down last night, some 16 top colas as well. Will grab some pics, drying room is slowing filling up. Using my inkbirds as monitors only in the walk in cooler.

Post a pic of the BK please. Be awhile before I see colas yet. And I here you on cramped. I got 7 for 11 from my regs and already had 6 fems in the run. Then social distancing prevented the extras from going to new homes. Now I have cluster F in my bed. I like order. Trim daily and still over run. 3 weeks ago. Jungle now.003.jpg

Ok but don’t laugh at it haha, looks like some happy plants, This one seems pretty strong too, it took a def on week or so ago but kinda let it be, it’s ok, it went in 6 weeks after my mainlined plants and I hacked it to fit, now it has room and is putting out some nice buds, will grab a pic here soon when I go out, just about that time and it needs to be tied up now too, grew tall with the big girls looking for the light and I took it’s partner out.
