Some photos of some buds and also some of the weird shit that happens on the “outer rim” of my tent.. I have this thing dialed in nicely now…finally, but everywhere you can see fucked up mutant shit from where I had light problems and ph fluctuations and all the other stuff that went haywire along the way.
Still there is some amazing looking flower in there.. so there’s that. But man, I would love to have just one perfect run. :weed:

I had a lot of yellowing over the last couple of days, I don’t think it’s senesce, it’s too rapid. So it’s either because I tried adding some epsom salts or the I’ve lights are too strong
Probably the UV now I think of it…excess mag/sulpher shouldn’t yellow everything out like that

Whew! Ive been away too long. Ive been so busy that ive barely had time to glance at the plants and water before leaving again. We finally gave my father in law the burial he deserved in a national cemetery back in NC. I made him an oak box for his ashes and we put in things he liked. Pics of family, a pack of cigs,lighter and i rolled a fat joint of the Kush that i never got to smoke with him. RIP old man. The past week weve been getting my son whos in the Navy, ready for his wedding. As of yesterday hes got a ball and chain. My growspace..... this is what happens when you show no love...lol. I stopped feeding the Mephistos because 1 is about 10 days left the other about 20. The Banana Blaze's are doing ok. 1 got lockout a few weeks ago and still retains some yellow leaves. The other just clawed a bit but is ok. They look like they will yield 4+ zips each. I started 2 GG to fill space but 1 failed to pop. Started another and it is a mutey. It only has the cotyledon leaves and nothing else. Started another , will see how it goes. ILGM leftovers, smh... Man your plants are looking great! Maybe ill get a growroom like that when i grow up :). You wont be disappointed with Mephistos quality and consistency. 3bears is great but you may want a bigger yielder. I am going with Forum Stomper next time. Its crazy how fast they finish. I started these last ones on may 12 and they will be done in a couple weeks. Ridiculously fast to be so good. Hey have a happy 4th. Happy 4th to you all. Heres todays pic. Kinda homely compared to yours but as little attention as theyve been getting im not surprised.

3 bears at 52 days from sprout. Mephisto says 60-70 days and all 4 ive grown have looked,smelled same. These are on track to be done in 2weeks+/- . If you need a big yield cant beat photos. But if you need really decent easy growing buds really fast, then they are great. Definately worth doing at least once.

Hey CP good to see you, wow man, sounds hectic hope things settle a bit for you now but sounds like you’ve been scoring goals.. congrats to your son! And nice touch making a box for the ashes.. I love a bit of woodwork, haven’t put my hand to any for years mind you.. last thing I made was a music box for my daughter.
Those are solid looking autos my friend.. I will definitely try some outdoors, I am late cutting clones for my next lot, had a few surprising pheno’s pop this crop so will be looking forward to the next one…cull the weak, strengthen the herd :blsmoke:

Bit sad.. my Jack herer is riddled with mould, really sad about that because apart from the mould it was a keeper pheno and I was going to reveg and keep her as a mother.. I’m a bit torn, the buds were beautiful but the way the mould spread through the plant while all the surrounding plants were ok.. I think it’s a no go guess I should be thankful it hasn’t raced through the rest of the crop yet.. will be watching the rest like a Hawk now and pulling at the first sign of infection.. so sad.

I found some more in the plants next to it.. I recon they still had two weeks worth of ripening to go but I am worried I’m going to lose the room to botrytis now.. shit. I’m tempted to pull everything.. shit shit shit I hate mould!

I really like the look of the ones with the giant calyxs. Dude it sucks you had to fight the mold. I fkn hate SM's and PM/ botrytis issues. I ran extra cool air in this summer and I never get near my growspace after being outside without changing clothes. Damn... 2-3 more weeks and that whole room woulda been perfect eh? At least you have enough where you can smoke the most ripe ones and make concentrates out of the least. Ever since my time away ive been fighting to get my Banana Blaze plants back right. Recharge and Cal-mag are helping. 1 Mephisto is looking to finish this week. Im just letting a bit more amber show. Will be about 75 days from sprout. Havent fed 'em in 2 weeks no water in a week. Frosty as hell. One thing about these Mephistos, they finish so fast theres less time for pests and mold to happen. Also if you have to start over youre only ever 70-80 days from a harvest. Hate ya had problems. At least you still have that star wars stash. Heres both 3 bears og's. The one still has about 10 days but the other is almost ready.

Haha, you should be getting commission from Mephisto I recon CP.. you’ve just about got me sold on them.
Yeah I found more mold and decided not to risk it.. the sativa dominate Franco’s lemon cheese was the only one really behind.. the others will be passable and they all got a two week flush I guess.
maybe next time I will get it perfect.

Hey what strain were the ones with the huge calyxs? That looked sweet. I wont lie , you wont get the yield youre used to when growing autos, but you can get some really good stuff fast. Ive heard Night Owl has some good ones too but these f6 beans were on autopilot the whole time. They dont need training , they have few fans, resistant to even me. The speed blows your mind. I wish i did work for them lol. I could get lost in their catalog for years.

Pulp friction from greenhouse. Extreme density.. lots of purple and strong smell of melon.
I made up a batch of gummies the other night, gave the spoon the smallest lick just to check flavour.. totally caught me by surprise half hour later when I realised I was stoned AF! Haha o_Oo_O whoops.. particularly strong batch..

Lokking good bro! Im gonna be pulling my time soon on that Banana Blaze. What i mistook for a deficency was senescence i believe. Fans turned yellow and started falling off just as the pistils turned red. Now the back one is doing same. They look good otherwise. Very dense nugs on the tops. My camera blows. I need a better one. Those 3 bears turned out great. Almost 2 Zips apiece. Everybody says its my best so far. I gotta get some of those pulp friction you had. Very nice. Ive got plants going at all different life stages in the same space. Hard to find time but i could use a photo level yield right now. That back BB is 3 feet tall and looks to be a 100+ gram plant, but itd be nice to pull a pound a plant. Hey take it easy!

Trimmed up the first Banana Blaze yesterday and it went surprisingly easy. Most of the fans have been falling off anyway. For what its worth they are better than i expected. The smell is fruity, fuel kushy. Very hard buds and since i always end up breaking a bud off, i dried it on my light overnight and was pleased that it still tasted like it smelled and has a good if not heavy high. I think i paid $16 for 3 beans and gonna get 3-4 zips a plant so was worthwhile. Not as strong as the Mephistos but nothing much else is either and i need a day smoke.lol. I am tired of the 2 o clock nods.
