Only recommendation I've gotten so far is give em another week and wait for the pistils to recede so i'll stick with that plan. Maybe harvest next weekend then.

Photo girls, looks like trouble filling the back line and the front 2 are overflowing. Turned down the overflow a tad but its making a mess so I'll either cull the BO #1 and raise the base up or figure something else out. This is day 45 of 12/12 for them so it would be my luck everything starts wrapping up at the same time and I over played my hand :D.

Completely outgrowing her current containers and needs a better solution :). I should've waited instead of jumping the gun but oh well. At this point I'm not sure if I should just cut all the grow tips for clones or wait it out and put her in the auto tent. A few purple stems from me needing to change the ferts out.

Cut the clones bro, you'll have more Cheese, the seedlings will have more time to grow :) that one can grow fast once she really gets going. My seedling was late and still got huge. Cheese jungle winning! Lol. Are you getting any smell yet ?

I can't even get to the corner of the photo room now, jungle has fully taken over the closet =(. Feels like I screwed the pooch but will just have to let them struggle thru and see what finishes. Pistils are changing rapidly in the room and some girls starting to fade, hopefully everyone holds on a bit longer. Would estimate 3 more weeks on the photo girls if they don't just tip over, will put some string/reinforcement up this afternoon with some photos....survival of the fittest now....


Left my hand in the shot once for size comparison...most of these are larger than I would've prefered, coke bottles with foxtails

Clones are looking established in the 4x4 tent, I'd kinda like to see how I do with all a single strain tbh. I'm not above grabbing cuttings from all these and resetting again if needed. Used lst clips to spread them out a tad, kinda feel like they are large enough to go ahead and flip based on previous growth.

Susie, I'm kinda leaning towards taking some cuttings for clones and flipping the veg tent to 12/12 so I can go ahead and sex them out, then grow the saved clones back to size. Blackened Oranges #2 buds are looking nicer, and 8BK #4 still the heaviest from that group. The clones are more testing if I can hold genetics and keep things going, would be nice over the winter break if I keep a few clones then can start back up after skiing vs having to hunt again.

That would be a time saver! You could flip the seedlings as you said, and then you'll know exactly what you're working with. Hehe, hoping you get some females so you can see how she does :) I may have to put a bit of Nutrients into my baby Susie; I noticed some yellowing on leaves and bring so small, I'm thinking she's ready for a taste.

Lol I hope there's a few girls 'cause I can smell her in the attic.... not bad just the veg odor since thats the one tent I don't have filtered. 3 weeks old ish now? Hopefully susie is old enough to grab the bottom nodes for clones and I'll flip the tent to 12/12 for sexing.

Larfy B is ripening and getting heavier at least? Colas are airy but 12-14" at least with fox tail tips..

One of the buds had fallen over and pinched the stem without getting noticed, tent is getting a bit unwieldy but this bud doesn't exactly scream ripe to me yet. Actually now that I see it in photo it looks better? Went ahead and wet trimmed off the branch and will stick in the cannatrol as a tester while we try waiting on the rest. Was concerned it might've molded so kinda snipped it quickly before thinking.

Well per billy both the other clones got snipped, I've got backups in the fridge to see if they will root. I took 4x cuts from each of the susie as well with the same fridge treatment in a cup of water. Schedule has been flipped for the veg tent to sex these 5 out and see whats leftover.

This is what the line up looks like.... Hopefully 2 weeks and will know which are boys vs girls and can reset the table to clone the remaining. Should've waited a full month before popping those beans, these are ~8" tall and I've trimmed the roots back each week.

few extra leaves still but didn't want to snip to down all the way til it was dry. Will see how the first try does then cut the rest down if it doesn't fall over in the tent.

whoa! science! feeling exceptionally medieval with my humidity packs now.

Im just hoping it prevents me from finding either a tent full of moldy plants or jars full of moldy buds. Auto tent is bending/falling all over even with the yoyo's, I'll let it go as long as possible.

thats kinda why im not running my 3rd tent rn. it had held a slurricane i sourced locally... then i found pm on it. fuck! glad i quarantined... and went on a bleach rampage. lucky this time, had i not rolled in the dehuey... keep up with your protocol bud, its worth the extra labor

well, few days later she certainly looks better at the tops. more yoyo's ordered since I walked into the photo room and found them flopping over like dicks. One is leaning on a ladder at the moment to keep the branches from bending....Cannatrol only on day 2 of the dry cycle? will try to give this girl til the weekend.

Larfy B is fading faster than I'd have preferred but she just does what she wants

Fridge stasis mode seems good so far? stems firm and leaves perky still ish? Will leave these cuts in the fridge for a week or so, then do a fresh cut on the stems and into the aerocloner if I can see which ones are female...
