Shit... Loadsa posts since I've been gone.
@Avrum - You're right dude, an oz is a good pull, regardless. I'm much happier about the situation, since I've been smoking it.
@TheDude - Thanks for the words man. Next time 'round will be better again!
@GrossePointe - Cheers man, the next grow will be soon. The new setup will be pretty much the same as this, but hopefully with 5 meters of strip LED's in there to give her a bit of a boost.
@Artanius - Thanks, and good luck with your grow man, I'll be keeping an eye on it!
@Nerd - The next grow will be the same strain as these first two. I have been tempted to work a grow with some of my bagseed, but I can't be hassled with the sexing issues at the moment. So I'll just work through the rest of the pack of the fem shiva skunk.
@Dragon - Actually after the buds have cured a little more, they're really not as airy as I thought, but they are kinda small. There's not much in the trimmings jar, but I might just grind down everything that's there and whack them into some cookies or summit.
@Kirk - Thanks man. Yeh, you might be right about getting some nicer soil. I'm always worried that some of these special treated soils might burn her at the seedling stage, but I guess I could just use a tiny pot of regular soil until she's got out of her 'awkward' stage
. The soil I've used on both grows has just been cheap organic seedling stuff from the local hardware place. Can you get Fox Farm Soil in the UK? I'll have to have a ganders at that in a minute.
@Spanky - Dude my biggest issue is that I tend to smoke most of my trim as I go along, this has been (almost certainly) a contributing factor to the non-epic results from the previous grows. By the time I harvested, I'd already massacred a good amount of fan leaves and popcorns. Been watching your grow man, it's looking great.. And you are gonna have some fun with that 250w HPS. As for pickin m'brains, just chuck me a PM if there's anythin I can help with.
@Hanky - Thanks mate. I'm no expert with the carbon filters, I just used the RIU tutorial here:
https://www.rollitup.org/do-yourself/101248-best-diy-ez-walmart-carbon.html - I made some slight mods to it, as I couldn't source all the bits, this side of the pond. But it seems to do an okay job. I do need to replace the carbon for the next grow tho, as grow #2 stunk.
@Reku - Likewise man! Sure we didn't nail the magical amount, but we're both taking some nice long tokes from weed we've nurtured from a seed. That's karmicly fucking perfect, I say!
SMOKE REPORT
Gonna put the smoke report on hold for a bit, as I still wanna cure them a little longer before I do that... Plus I've only got really shit baccy here at the moment, so will buy something a little nicer to put it to the test with.
Okay. I think I'm about done.
Thanks for all the support everyone. It's been a pleasure to grow alongside you all. It's only the end of the second PC Grow, but I've learnt so much from all the sound fuckers on this board.
Cheers!
