I started a grow journal on grasscity and have not had many replys. So now I'm here to get some input. I'm in a 4x8 tent with two 1000 watters. Using hydroponic research nutrients. My plants were vegged for 9 weeks. (Topped many times)

They are now ending their 7th week in flower.
This was them at day 45 below.

It is now day 51 of flowering and all the colas are getting to heavy for themselves so I tied each one to a wooden dowel because they were almost touching the floor.

Here they are today. Cloudy trichs a few Amber on the leaves and a few clear on the buds. The top picture is my lemon Jeffery x arise and the bottom one is NL. The buds seem to have swollen especially In The past week because they could not even hold themselves up.

The lemon Jeffery is a stativa hydrid with a flowering time of 65 days. Does anyone think that it looks done?

My other strains are blackberry skunk #5, blueberry, atom bomb, bully dog Diesel, MK ultra fast, and early skunk. They only ones.that seem done are the NL and Lemon Jeff.

Also I have another tent with 12 blackberry skunk clones rooted under 2 Mars hydro 300s. Which will be my next grow when I plan on having 4 1000 watters.

On a other note I searched forums far and wide for flushing info. Does it really make your smoke smoother? People have been flushing for years but is it really beneficial. I see people reference that they do not flush their vegetables so why would they have to for Cannabis. I can see the thought process with that but cannabis is given large amounts of nutrients so it may differ. I thought it was a slow dry and a proper cure that makes the most of your medicine.

So instead of wondering and hearing yes and no I'm going to try it for myself. I have two atom bomb plants in my flower tent right now so I'm going to only flush one of them and see if it makes any difference.

How i understand it (as a noob on my first grow ever, growing bagseed...lol) flushing is only useful for non organic nutes since theres a lot of salt buildup. Organic doesnt contain the same amount of salts, so no need to flush. I could be wrong tho....but yeah, alway best to test for yourself. Im testing how much i can grow with 150w atm just for the heck of it.

Here is one of my 8 strains. This one just can't stay happy. It has been airy it's whole life and not very healthy. This is the only plant that has problems so I won't be growing this one again.

Btw that fan isn't hooked up right now lol.

Behind that plant you can see the redish purple leaf. That is my other small plant and has had those colors ever since flowering. Not sure what it is as it's the only plant doing that.

Harvest has come and I've gotten about 2.5 lbs of dried smoke. This was just from my 4 plants.

Here's my problem. I had 4 other plants that were feminized seeds. I just found some seeds in 2 of those plants. Luckily there's no seeds in the 2.5lb of other smoke. (Which were app regular seeds.) These plants are only an ounce at best and there's not really any frost on them either. Why did they have seeds? The seeds were on the outside of the buds. There was no male plants present what so ever.
