One of the posters here, I won't mention any names (323Cheezy), dared to suggest that my daily updates were boring because they weren't changing enough. Well to that, sir, I throw this, tonight's update, up down and all around. The fatties on the right are leaning harder, the nugs are looking denser and grosser, the crystal formation continues to grow, and there are still a few leaves left with some green on them, AND no obvious amber trichs yet. And I mean, come on... look how small my light exhaust looks now. It's the incredible shrinking light exhaust. Y'know the label does say flowers bulk up late.




And the incredible little plant number 2. I think she deserves a round of applause.

Lower inner growth -- also plant 2. I'm almost more proud of her in a way.

The power leaners. These suckers are obscenely heavy.

And finally one more pulled back. Ah, what a fun grow it's been not worrying about out of control stretch.

Oh, and as for the uncensored book of Flower Girls, I'll draft the pages as harvest draws near and finish it up during dry period. I'll have it ready for download in time for my first smoke report.

I'm seeing more and more signals every day that your ladies are about ready to go.

Here's what I see right now:

Your late calyx maturation is damn near done. Woo hoo!
Pulling a damn nice fade. You want that plant damn near yellow during the chop.
More purple.
Mature trichomes. You may not see any amber right now. You will definitely start seeing some by Saturday. A good chance prior to, so keep an eye out.
Pistils are starting to do their "S" curve and on a larger scale.

Keep at it!

I love your scientific play-by-play. It seems you see even more than I do. My kind of grower.

You're too funny. I can tell you must have been one of those trouble-makers in school who always sat at the back of the class making smart-ass remarks. Lol.

That was my sole purpose for all the research and experimentation I did... To make you all feel incompetent. No, I'm kidding! Of course I'm not here to make anyone feel incompetent! There are growers here who can teach me a thing or ten. I never lose sight of that fact.

What's better than a second opinion to let you know you're right on track :)
Alright, slick. I've taken your flush advice and followed your rec pretty closely (with just a little of my own customization). They were down to 290-280ppm last night... that's practically nothing so I'm switiching to plain water tonight till Sat harvest.

edit:
That will make it about a four day flush. I want to experiment with a slightly shorter pure water period this time (usually go for a week or more). I'm pretty pleased by the way the plants have been responding to having just a little nute in the water in late ripen. I'm just thinking about the short plain water period as a means of cleaning residual salts out of the root system. I think the plants have translocated the N (and various other stored nutes) from the surrounding leaves pretty thoroughly.

I was kinda' stuck in a OG rut yesterday. The fire I was smoking all day yesterday just didn't have that same punch as the Pheno B and Larry I was smoking the days before... So I did a little Seismic OG just now and am flying high as a kite!

Just goes to show you that you have to mix it up sometimes to trick your brain.

Your logic is sound. I always suggest running straight water for a few days in hydro any-how, as it does have it's benefits, which you're already aware of. This concept has nothing to do with the writing-off of flushing, just simply a different way to get there. The deed has already been done on your end, and your plants will experience no immediate and/or damaging shock when you run straight water. Congrats! A+

Hold off on the A+ grade until smoke report. I don't want any added pressure. ha ha.

Have a look at this. It's getting pretty purple. But amber trichs?







Taking it down to 170ppm drained the external res close to the pump line. I'll continue the flush when it refills.

Still not seeing any amber either- You're very close though from the looks of it. Saturday sounds about right.

Also- Those are noticeably fatter than yesterday.
