How goes folks I harvested the A.S.D, Blue Kush and P.O #1 on the 23rd of November. 11 weeks into flower.(77 days). The P.O #2 and P.O #3 were harvested a few days later on day 81. Im assuming that this harvest was delayed by the intense heat we experience here over October and November. To be honest none of them looked 100% ready to harvest but the trich's told a different story so I worked according to that. The blue kush was a flop of note. Extremely airy bud but it actually tastes good and I could very well make BHO with it. I still managed to yield 68g's from it. The A.S.D and P.O #1 are now jarred. The A.S.D produced a total of 88g and the P.O #1 produced 77g which I'm really happy with for my 2nd organic grow. (zero feeding). The P.O #2 and #3 are still hanging up and will be jarred on the weekend. I think the P.O #3 (hydro) will yield more than the organic #1 but of course that doesn't conclude anything as they are not from the same seed, she does look decent though. The P.O #2 was a bit underwhelming and as you'll see in the pic, still looked largely unfinished. Here's some pics on the day of harvest. I had some better pics on my phone but unfortunately that got stolen... Dried bud pics to come! Amherst Sour Diesel Purple Orange CBD #1 - Organic. She actually to started push through some of her purple regardless of the sub 40 degree heat Purple Orange #2 Organic Purple Orange CBD #3 - hydro

understand why deficiencies occur, don't panic when they do. keep it simple, nature is simple, we are emulating nature. water on a schedule, not "every now and then", dont cheap out on nutes, soil or fans, shit, dont cheap out, period. as in life " dont sweat the petty stuff and dont pet the sweaty stuff" lastly, failure is also a result, learn from mistakes, thats how we all started

Its like with all babies , us daddys get excited quickly

Shit.. its been a while. Plants doing well overall. Flower cab build to commence this weekend so will transplant to 40l on Sat and give them a last week in the veg tent to recover Veg tent now running a silly amount of light just for the hell of it. 400 sunmaster hps and I chucked in the apollo 8 spot for good measure. No light stress but I did bring out an underlying calmag looking issue with my soil. New batch is ready and shouldn't have the same issue as Epsom was added. Hit them with a fulvic and Epsom foliar last night. Ladies are begging to be flowered(calmag orphan excluded) Upped fishmix to 5ml/l sitting having a bong admiring the girls, peeked inside the panel and thought it would make a cool pic plant bottom right being a ballache, always has been lagging, almost dont want to flower her in this state, fifo my dear fifo

Issue is the cycles are different times. I have had outages in light and dark cycles. You would need to have that disabled during shedding in lights off cycle

That depends on what the cops who raid your house think...put yourself in a cops shoes who is looking for any excuse to nail you for dealing... Here's what I personally think will sit well. If you're a recreational smoker then 6-10 plants at a time should be okay, in total. If you like your concentrates or need to grow for medicinal reasons (oil) and need to grow more than 10 then have proof of the oils you made before, equipment you use to make oil etc.... if you can show them how you use the plants and how you can't possibly be selling the plants then you should be fine. Store your bud in jars, not ziplock bags. Dont keep bank bags around. These raids are usually as a result of tipoffs. Keep your grow to yourself and you'll be good. If they do ever come knocking, be respectful and explain your personal use in a calm manner. They most likely wont even come inside

You sound like a first time grower. Nothing wrong with that, we were all first timers. The common thing amongst first timers though, is that they all ( me included) make way too much of everything. I guess pretty much like first time parents do. 90cm is quite far, unless you’re running very powerful lights. If you’re worried about it, try 60cm. For the wattage you stated, I’m comfortable recommending 45cm.

Get LED lights You have to run 30+ degrees for optimal growth, and transpiration. Much easier and cheaper to control humidity than fighting hot temps. Seriously, these are the same plants as my SOTM entry. Record flowering time, and looking to be my best yield ever.

likewise with the emergency light,helps maintain cycle. had the same thing happen with 1st load shedding that hit, got myself a reset-able apc power surge plug to safeguard my lovlies (after dishing out for a new ballast) i am using a 650va ups with 2x 12v server fans, one as secondary intake and 1 as secondary exhaust . Ironically eskom is actually just forcing a modified gas lamp lighting routine, well, very modified https://www.cannabisni.com/2101/grow-bigger-and-better-saving-30-50-percent-on-your-energy-cost
