Ladies are coming on nicely, i havent had time to take pics today but i will tomorrow.
Humidity has been high in the flower cab today, approx 70%
Its been under 60 all week but just a 1 degree rise in the cab takes the humidity well over 60%. It doesnt seem humid in there mind you.

It doesnt seem humid in there mind you.I have just ordered 2 x killrock moisture traps off amazon, im gonna make a couple of small shelves for them at the same hight as my main colas see if that does the trick. I already have in there 1 electric dehumidifier, 2 x plastic dedumidifiers and a 6" fan!!!
I think ill only have probs flowering these first lot as its gonna be the height of summer when there finishing but theres not alot i can do about it. As i say it doesnt feel humid in there.
Oh Stealthy when should i add the cha ching mate? Week 5 started on Saturday, the buds arent fully developed yet but there growing fast now, im not sure when to run it. I was thinking about just adding half a teaspoon to each bucket. I need to lan when im gonna flush aswell as i will need the buckets to empty down a bit before i add water.

I noticed some white powdery stuff appearing on my clay balls in the veg cab over the weekend, ive managed to do a bit of checking tonight and i think it was powdery mildew It wasnt on any of the plants though just a few of the balls so i have removed the effected ones and replaced them with new ones. Ill keep humidity a little lower the next day or so and from what i read if i spray my plants with water regularly it shuldnt be a problem. Ive seebn a homemade spray also to get rid of it if it does get any worse.
While i was replacing the balls i saw what i though was mould around the rockwool cube!! On closer inspection it seems to be roots that have grow up instead of down and some of the have gone a bit fluffy is the only word i can think to describe them. Im pretty sure its not mould but ive taken a pic.
I just cant seem to win, i cant get the flower cab dry enough and i cant get the veg cab humid enough without virtually turning the fan off in there and the temp rising to 30!!!

I have just ordered myself a drill powered water pump, it was only a tenner and has very good reviews on amazon so though this would make my life a bit easier. It means ill be able to empty the buckets then add fresh ph balanced water to them to flush the ladies
Im def about a week behind from the pictures ive been looking at online, i put this down to the stress of moving them and root damage which shouldnt be a problem now ive got my pump The buds are getting bigger now everyday and i think ill add the cha ching saturday which will be the start of week 6, ill leave them then another 2-3 weeks before i start flushing
Here is a couple of pics of my biggest buds, i rekon there gonna be massive

Cheers dude, im hoping over the next 7 days my main cola's will be fully formed so i will get a better idea of where im at. Stems are really thick also so im hoping the buds will get nice and fat
Had a look at your journal yesterday mate you buds are looking mighty fine pal, looks like Richard was correct abotu the quality of his lights, i wonder what you will yeild?

A couple more pics taken just, 6 weeks flowering now but as i say because of the stress of moving them i think there a week behind.
I have been finding the fan in my veg cab keeps cutting off, i think its because i have to have it so low to get the humidity up in there. It seems fine when its on a bit higher so im gonna keep an eye on humidity, im hoping now the ladies are starting to get a bit bigger they will make the cabs more humid.
I may for the next grow get a humidifer for the veg cab so i can keep the fan on a bit higher save risking it cutting out.

Hi dude, you could try running the Veg fan on a timer on 20 min intervals and run it at a faster pace... This would ensure the fan runs more healthily and the humidity still stays in check

Humidity is alot better now, i moved the 2 plastic dehumidifiers down to the bottom of the cab which has helped and i have my 6" clip on fan pushing air up from the bottom of the plants so so far so good
I havent added Cha Ching yet as i thought id wait another few days so the buds can get fully formed first.
I have just ordered myself a sample of Tosh Valley Charas and Nepalese Polm, both look lush as fook so im hoping to be smoking a fair bit of this from now on, in the next 2 weeks he wil have the first batch of Nepal First Cream which he said it the bollox

The last 2 days the ph's in the flower cab buckets have been dropping a fair bit, all i can think of is the ladies are taking on more water than nuites so as the liquid in the buckets gets less the nuites are lowering the ph of the buckets? Everything looks healthy though and if my pump arrives tomorrow i may do a res change for each bucket as im on the 7th week now.
Stealthy mate how long should it take the buds to form? I mean they are growing but i think i was expecting them to be done now, i have just started week 8 but i rekon im a week or two behind. Maybe im just being impatient, ladies look really healthy so ill just wait a bit longer.

Hi dude, Budding time varies for each strain.. However looking at the pics I'd say another 3+ weeks as the buds are still pretty small... Take some pics of the buds in normal daylight, the colour of the hairs etc can help determin whether the plants ready for Harvest or not also I'd prob wait a week then start with the Cha-Ching ... Main thing to do though is take a good 10+ pics of different buds... and try and capture as much bud-detail as possible
...Post 'em up here and we should be able to tell you when a date for Harvest is - STELTHY Hi mate sorry for the delay ive got a few bud pics here, again the camera quality isnt very good for close ups, i got a jeweler's loupe yesterday though so ill take a look tomorrow when lights are off. Theres a pic of the vegging ladies also, lemon haze at the back and bolue venom at the front. One of the lemon haze (back left) has been topped already as its growing really fast so i topped at 15". One of the blue venom is a bit of a runt but its still healthy
Im fairly pleased with results so far, i was a bit worried about how slow they are growing but from what i read led lights take a little longer than HPS to flower anyway and take into consideration stress/root damage when being transfered i rekon these will take about 12 weeks in all so not to bad. Ill take your advice on cha-ching and wait a while.

Mate when is it best to top the plants the second time? I have only topped one so far but im unsure when to do it again, shall i wait say a week inbetween doing it? Also is it ok to top more than twice? Im just thinking another 3+ weeks of vegging the mutant haze will be really tall.
