Update :12/19 (73 days since flip to 12/12)

Shortly after my last update I noticed every one of my plants got pollenated some how. One must've hermied and pollenated the tent. I only saw a couple seeds on the top buds closest to the light so hopefully the smoke is still good. It is now 73 days since flip but there are still white pistils. I heard people say that flowering doesn't start immediately when you switch the light schedule. So maybe I'm actually closer to 50 days than 70 when it comes to how long the flower time is. I havent top dressed in almost 3 weeks, assuming 70 days the jig would be up. Anyway, now I'm thinking I should give it another 10 days. My main concern is that some of the leaves look brown and crusty and I don't want bud rot.

Also The leaves had started to take on a rusted/yellow spotted look on leaves of all plants, not sure if its lockout or some type of deficiency or toxicity. Son of a gun!





















On Nov 12th, I planted 6 Tom Hills North Indian Kush Cake in fox farms ocean forest soil that I used in a previous run. Fast forward to now, they look like total shit. I think I burned them. I will try my best to get these back to health, will select the best looking 4 to hopefully move into flower tent. One thing, I dont ph my water- its around 8, but I added dolomite lime a few weeks prior to planting and tested soil ph, it was 6. Anyway, here goes some pictures in the next post....

What do you think it could be? Are they too far gone? I'd like to get them back to health if possible, thanks for any tips.

Update: 12/30 (20 days in 18/6)

"So here I am, in front of the tent again. Hands in front of my face pull outwardly, then downwardly.... then outwardly at the bottom again and the flaps are held back by milk crates and watering cans.... The tent is unzipped."- TankHankerous

Considering I think the problem was I planted the seeds directly into soil that was too hot, I think they kind of worked out of the funk for the most part....I watered yesterday and topped one of the plants that was getting stretchy on me compared tot he other 5.... At first I had only planned to move 4 into the flower tent but now I'm debating whether to take clones in a few weeks and throw them all into the flower tent asap.... This will be the first time I've ever taken clones so I'm welcome to any advice or good tutorials out there. Anyway, here are some pics I took today of some LST I did. I bent a couple of the stems up pretty bad but I hear they should be ok. Also the last pic is I put the top into a glass of water and in the bottom of my tent, tonight its praying- pretty cool, Ha! Thanks again for any tips and advice!









Update on Drying tent: So far It's been 3 days since chop. Got temps at around 70 Fahrenheit and between 55 and 60 RH. I tested the buds with a moisture meter and they all read around 19 percent which is cool. I anticipate Sunday or Monday they will be within range. I think it was 14 or 11 percent when its time to start jarring but I have to check again. Any good tips or tricks let me know. Thanks for checking out

Tom Hill's North Indian Red Skunk x LA Kush Cake- Progress Report (Day 58 from flip to 12/12)

I haven't had much motivation to post updates during the grow until these late stages when I am nearing harvest. I took some pics today, day 58 from flip to 12/12. I'm anticipating harvest will be between 70-80 days since flip. There are 6 plants but pheno #5 looks like it is about week behind the rest in terms of ripening.

Pheno #1



Pheno #2



Pheno #3



Pheno #4



Pheno #5



Pheno #6



Here are a few overview pics of the tent and some bud shots with the lights on







Here is Pheno #5 with many white pistils still...



The harvest date on the pack says 56-63 days but looks like its closer to 80.

Its smells strong too, I can tell because I have a stuffy nose and I can still smell it
