10 Uknown Soldiers - 7 weeks

Thanks to all those that have followed this thread all along.

For those just seeing this thread, the thread is here....https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/169027-10-unknown-soldiers-3-1-a.html

These are my 10 girls @ 7 weeks flowering. They suffered some nutrient burn early on, not too bad, but makes the pictures look terrible. These plants would've really nice at this point had that not happened, but either my ppm meter is way off or these plants don't like strong nutes. I've been keeping my ppm down to 1000 or less to keep them happy.

Anyway, that aside, here are new week 7 pictures. I'm going to flush the resevoir and clean everything up so they can live their last 1 1/2 -2 weeks on plain water for flush. I've been using Sparkletts water all along, but I think I'm going to flush with tap water. Don't see the need to keep the ppm down if I'm not going to use nutes.

Lotsa nice bud in there, bro. Nute burn sure sucks.. had the same issue. But, the good news is that the trim process will clean all that up nicely. Mine got burned pretty bad, but it didn't get into the actual bud material at all. I'm sure you'll find the same.

This isnt going to make sense but for as bad as those plants look, they look good.

Got you some purple leaves on a couple of them plants bro they still look great. Hope the next week and a half goes smooth.

Peace

Laser, man I cant even imagine what it would look like without all the crispy leaves. Fortunately for you, like others said, its all gonna be-gone after a good trim job.

I wonder how much weed you got in there? Those purple nugs look delicious

I can't either, but truth is I don't think the little bit of nute burn hurt me overall, I just wish I had some prettier plants. Overall I'm growin' buds and they aren't negatively affected by the burn. Next grow will go much better, this tri-meter I'm using is just a piece of shit. I'm going to acquire some new equipment before I start on my next real batch.

For these it's just flushing and watching them die and for their bad behavoir throughout the course of this grow I will punish them. They will all be burned little by little and one by one.

Hell yeah, I'll let you help me out for sure. I'm going to cut them down in a couple of weeks. Then it's drying and curing for 4 weeks.

I'm just excited that I get to buy my last ounce in a couple of weeks. I have found that it's very difficult to let your plants properly dry and cure when you're bone dry on bud, so the day I cut them down I go out and buy a Z so I can stay up off my bitches.

So have I. The past two times I swore I wasn't gonna touch it for a month.... shit that lasted for two weeks. Ran out of bud and couldn't find any.

Looking phenomenal!!! Keep it up!!! I hope you share with your mates!!!

I always share with my buddies. My jars are always open...at least when I've got a batch finished.

Sounds like multiple good ideas.
I'm going to do the same thing. In every aspect except cut them down soon.

I chopped down 2 of my girls tonight. Space is getting tight in the room and these two had about 90% cloudy 5% clear and 5% amber trichs, so I chopped them down. It was a spur of the moment decision, I had a fear that one of them was showing some hermie signs and it was questionable so I just went ahead and got it out of the room and decided to harvest both of them that seemed to come from the same mother.

I don't think it was anything, but I threw it in a trash bag.

I gave the girl a preliminary quick trim...I have some pictures from earlier before I made the chop I took some pictures.

And now pictures from the harvest...

holy crap.. how come I have a feeling my nugs aren't going to get that big???

Thats only 2 plants?!?!?!

Can't wait to see some trimmed/dried up bud pr0n

The rest will likely be coming in about a week. Depends on what the plants tell me.

Yes, that's only 2 plants, 8 left in the flowering room now.

I wouldn't fear much, your plants look great and you've taken good care of them. They will reward you kindly.

I am pretty happy with the way that this strain came out, it's the ones that I got from the dispensary that that so far are letting me down, but I'm sure they'll be just fine.

DAMN bro those ladies look great!!!!!!

Very nice!

Well I haven't updated this thread as much as I should have, but here's the gist of it....

I chopped, harvested and dried the rest of my buds.

I would call this grow an "eh" grow. It was pretty decent all in all, could've been much better, could've been much worse. I wasn't really happy with the "unknown" strains that I'm working with all along and I'm going to work very hard this summer to not have that problem anymore.

Lots of quality strains should be at my disposal, I've already received a lot of seeds and I'm working some trades with other local medical marijuana patients to obtain even more strains. I want to be able to find the best out of a good 10-15 strains before I settle for the few that I enjoy growing and smoking.

I've smoked a couple of samples and the shit is definitely strong, and definitely good. The smell is ridiculous.

All in all this grow took me about 11 weeks to complete from clones to hanging. I've still got curing time, but all in all it was a short and efficient grow. I got 10.5 oz's of dried buds and a little over an oz of trimmings that will become edibles.

Anyway, here are pics from the harvest....
