That's a chunky girl in the 5x5. What kind of RH do you average in there? So pretty.

This was my first round with synthetics and it was different than what I was used to using Nectar for the Gods. I had problems and some of the plants and they lost leaves on their own, yeah they are chunky, the Pop Rocks in the picture has low end nugs the size of golf balls.

As far as RH right now its about 45%. Honestly I gave up on trying to raise it sometime ago and packed the humidifiers away. Even with 2 in the 5x5 I couldn't never raise it much and all I got was fucked up carbon filters. so now I only control humidity when it needs to come down. Late last winter I was vegging and flowering in low humidity any where from 15%-30%.

Well the other night one of my pictures made it to Envy's IG again, thanks @EnvyGenetics ! Same plant as before just a different shot, here is the main top from that plant. On Thursday night me and my best pal are going to blaze this nug up.

Ring Pops.



I've tested a couple other buds from the plant, rock hard, flavorful with a sweet and creamy with a bit of a sour taste.

Nope. I've yet to clone anything, honestly I feel for a bit I just want to pop seeds and see whats out there.

Plus I need to up my seedling game, I need practice.

Will update in a couple weeks. Don't know for sure yet but thinking of turning the lights off for awhile and taking a mental break from growing. I haven't been at it long but this last run has taxed me hard, right now I don't want to even think about growing.

This is how I feel every time trimming gets overwhelming
It subsides and I am back at it
You will too

Whats shaken everybody? I've been poking around the forum for a bit, lurking on some off the breeder's threads. So in a nut shell here is what happened. Harvesting the last four plants I found some mold. One plant had none, two plants had a tad bit and maybe lost 10 grams or so out of the two. What put me over the edge was my prized Pop Rocks.

Was the last plant to trim, and when I was bucking the buds off the plant on high alert, all the monster main buds had rot. After a quick inspection I trashed the plant as it was the right thing to do. I was pissed off.

I came to the conclusion that I let my humidity get too high. It was my first time flowering during that time of the year, and anyone in Michigan knows the humidity in August and September can be brutal. Also for some stupid reason I was under the impression that as long as I was under 60% I was good. I now know I was letting it run too high. Still don't know where the hell I got that idea from.

Don't have to worry about it now, winter is starting and my humidity is about 30%.

I'll get some new pictures up this weekend.

Sorry to hear of the mold FR, your Ring Pop & Fire & desire looked fire bro.

Thanks Bob! I actually have a good number of plants coming up right now, alot of them looking really good. That Fire & Desire is shaping up to be a stunner.

Here are some of the pictures I took lately, like I said I will get some up to date action tomorrow.

Here is a Pop Rocks I had out of the tent the other day, I'd say about 3 weeks to go.







Another Pop Rocks in the back of the tent.





Gorilla Pops on about day 24 or so.

So frosty!

My condolences on your loss. Despite having more plants ready to roll it doesn't make losing even one easy to swallow. Good luck on the upcoming batch!

I am with you on that! I had to toss so many plants this year, many do to being males, even that blows. I had to chop a Gorilla Pop about 2 weeks ago, that damn thing just kept growing man. It grew into the lights, so I tried my hand at super cropping, but even after that all the branches I bent down all the shoots grew up and over the light. I tried training it some more and it ended up looking like a janky scarecrow that had its arms around two other plants LOL, I should have took a picture.

Damn thing was too big so it had to go.

Alright I slacked off this past weekend on getting some pics up, sorry, really wasn't a busy weekend but I had a lot off beer to drink. So here are some pictures of what I got going on.
