Mephisto Sour Stomper cab grow - day 50

Thought I would check in. Day 50 Mephisto SS. 12 x15" footprint cab. KIND XL300 light.

DWC (3 gallons) - 5.8-6.0, EC 1.0 - 1.1, 74-76F, RH 60. MC (1 part) + fulvic acid + Maxicrop + GW . Continuous and substantial defol. Some LST (could have used more - usually get better branch separation)

Sorry for the glare in the pics - I have terrible photography skills.

NIce lot of flowers/heads for a small area, never done DWC, esp with just one girl! Love small grows over large.

Excellent use of a small space. Well done!

Thanks guys - I appreciate it! BTW I noticed a typo above - the space is 15" x 24" - a little over 2 sq ft.
Here she is at day 64. Getting closer.

Day 77 - Chop day

Final report - 7.1 oz. Probably 6.5 after cure.

A couple oz. of that was popcorn which I dried and am curing separately. Good yield for less than .25 sq meter footprint. After chop: lemon, lots of earth. After drying/before cure: more muted and sweeter, not as earthy. Buds were not huge or particularly dense. Color- typical S. Stomper lime green with orange pistils.

What I did right - focus on the basics and kept: (1) pH solid at 5.8-6.1 (2) EC at .9 - 1.1, and (3) RH and temp in VPD chart range. I think the latter had the most impact. I also kept her under 6500k T5HOs for the first 3 weeks which helped. Only used MC (1 part), fluvic acid, kelp extract (Sea K) and Great White.

What I did wrong - I pushed the bleeding edge in terms of yield. I should have defoliated much more - it's just a PITA in a very small space. I was running a real risk with mold etc. and was lucky to avoid it. Next time I will defoliate much more, especially lower. branches. I suspect it will decreased yield slightly but most of that reduction will be in lower popcorn buds. In any event, it's now in jars and curing. Start my burping ritual tonight.

Thanks for following along everyone. I will update this thread with a smoke/vape report in a few weeks.

Peace.

Cool, and yeah good yield for that little footprint in just a 3 month cycle (?) including the drying probably. I'd have been well pleased.

Thanks!
