Yes.... That is what I like to see.
It's not over till those top hairs dry.Yes.... That is what I like to see.
I'm trying to be a bit more patient this time. I've been guilty of harvesting early in the past myself for one reason or another.Nice to see a plant finished, I'm so used to seeing early grows on forums. I get told I way over ripen. Beautiful nugs.
Now that I think about it, it's not really the smell that shifts in intensity... it's just me. I've gotten so used to it. I'm pretty numb to it. But even living with it every day, there are those times it seems ridiculously strong. Going out and coming back inside, it hits you in the face every time, though. I think my carbon scrubber does a pretty good job of keeping the smell from drifting too far out my front door area.Haha, yeah, I figured that would happen. This is the time where all sorts of weird stinky things happen.
I'm glad it's working out for you! You're about to really out-do yourself in terms of both smoke quality and terminal weight on this one. You are completely right about the stored energy. You still have a bit more of a fade to put on it, for taste, which you will see happen over the next few days. Also, remember, the stored energy is still being put to use during drying/curing. Alcohol fermentation happens until your weed is dust-dry and grey. The slower your plant takes to dry, the faster it will pull a nice cure. Plants that dry too quickly have that green taste to them, and no real cure will fix that. Slow the drying process down a bit, and it will be great after 5-6 days in a jar. Like they say: "Slow and steady wins the race"Edit: Okay enough of the hot girls for now... Back to the plant science. Ha ha! Really? -----> On the topic of the 'over-clocking' (or skating right under the critical burn level during early to mid flower), I'd like you all to note that you pretty much don't see the results of the nute overload until mid to late flower as you're seeing now. The plants are not really 'feeding' on the paltry 300ppm currently in the water, but on the massive amounts of stored nutrient from that period of overload. I believe they've been feeding on this stored nutrient for some weeks now. I've never seen the life sucked out of surrounding fan leaves more efficiently. The mild 300ppm is more of a buffer at this point, easing the plants to a pure water rinse without any sudden shocks. Thanks, dsmoke1.
So this is how I have the finale worked out in my head. They were at 300ppm last night. I'm going to let thing keep drinking on this until tomorrow (Tuesday) night. It should be right around 280ppm by then, practically plain water already. Tuesday night I will drain and replace with straight RO and let them rinse for four days with a Saturday morning harvest in mind.I'm glad it's working out for you!

Why is that? I thought this was exactly the way to do riddlem3's drowning in DWC to start fermentation and shorten the cure??Right and right. You definitely do not want to turn your air pump off.
Yeah, yeah. Saturdays were made for harvest. I was gonna harvest for that reason day before yesterday, but not enough brown trichs yet.sounds like a plan. i like saturday morning harvests. gives me plenty of time to do the cut/trim/dry without being rushed to do anything the next day. i have weekends off.
you decided on your next grow?? don't even think about leaving me for a few days without some half naked hotties!!! you've already saved me about $1000 from not going to the strip clubs lol.
Super likeI'm thinking about compiling the full, uncensored work in a Diablo OG Flower Girl Unfiltered downloadable E-book. Perhaps all of you fine folks will download it for a small donation to the photographer/grower? I'll apply the proceeds to my next grow project. LOL! But then again, I'm serious! I think I will make the book... I have thousands of beautiful nudes.
It is Jin's plants have quite a bit more left in them. An oxygenated rootzone is still a necessary at this point.Why is that? I thought this was exactly the way to do riddlem3's drowning in DWC to start fermentation and shorten the cure??
Perfect. As I said, you're free to work with straight RO water from here on out. The deed has been done and the positive effects will continue to fruit.So this is how I have the finale worked out in my head. They were at 300ppm last night.

Then the book is officially in the works. I feel I've been holding back the good stuff since I can't show nudity here.Super like
I just can't seem to let go of those last traces of nute! Lol!Perfect. As I said, you're free to work with straight RO water from here on out. The deed has been done and the positive effects will continue to fruit.
I'm sorry if I'm boring you, but I'm sticking to the daily update format to show true daily progress. If you don't like looking at them every day, just wait a few days or backtrack to three or more days back to see the more dramatic difference. And I hate to say it, but they only look the same every day to the untrained eye. Maybe it doesn't come across as clearly in the photos to you, but if they looked the same to my naked eye every day, I wouldn't photograph them daily.hows the muscle chicken og going ....?????lol
Loubanas looking fantastic i must say ....
Why im sorry i have to admit i really like your pics .....
But they all look the same...lol
Just some shit i wanted to put out there...U should grow a couple different strains next round(least 2 )
Cause with all this time u have on your hands(lol).. it will be even more intersting!...
Probly a bad idea ... but good for the viewer....me ......lol
And u should also post pics every 3 to 5 days .....
Cause its hard to see big difference....
Kinda boring from a veiwers perspective....lol
I tend to just focus on the chick pics.. and skim right through ....
I guess its just getting old these ladies need to die.....Kill em!
But you know that would be silly .. right....??
ps...... i chop early sometimes ....hahah more like all the time.....
