*Second* Grow Journal - Tangerine Dream (fem) AK47 (Fem) and Critical+ (Fem)

OK.. was a little toasted there but the quick dry bud was nice in the vapor. It has a little citrus diesel smell.. maybe tad more pugnet then SLH. Another couple weeks and this stuff will be lock and load.. also did my bud dryer. I found some adjustable screens and a 27 gal tough tote with 4" inline fan. Going to be sweet should dry the bud in about 3-4 days so I can cure sooner. Cost about 50 bucks maybe less..

27 Gal Tough Tote - $10
4" inline fan - $18
8ft cord - $8
1 stick 10ft 1/2" pvc - $2
2 - basement screens with frame $12

Love the screens over the expanded metal that Panhead specified. Will try to get some pics up with the next update.

Here is panheads link: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/62900-4-day-bud-dryer-40-a.html

Someone PM for my nute schedule here is my Excel spread sheet at the moment.

Here are some trich pics from Critical+ stuff is so stinky.. citrus but mostly skunky. Probably few more days as hairs getting amber and trichs are clouding up. It has been about 50 days in flower they say 56-60 days flowering.









The other three plants are doing great and budding up nicely will post pics after I get the Critical+ out of here.

Nice grow you got going the buds look tasty, if you don't kind me asking how did you setup your aero I've been interested in aero but I don't know much about it.

Yes I cant wait its 57 days today at 56 day flower cycle so *any* day and I want to make sure its at full potential before picking. I picked both my super lemon haze early and regret it wont do it again.

I use the "Stinkbud" system, it works for me because its simple, no medium. Just basically check PH everyday and PPM and let em grow. You can search it by Pound every 3 Weeks thread. I used DWC, soil and now this StinkBud system, my favorite and best result system so far. Stinkbud's thread has everything you need to build it, pvc is super cheap as well as the fittings, a pump, reservoir, some 5" pvc fence post and you're rocking.

I use botanicare organic nutes and never flush, I feed em till they get chopped. Smooth smoke and no harshness or cracking, everyone loves my bud better then anything they can get locally even at dispensary. Makes you feel good to do something right while others struggle trying to grow good bud. I started this after I got my card, and I could never get a bag of smoke without seeds and mediocre potency.

Thank you, keep us posted with a harvest and smoke report I can't wait.

Damn nothing to report yet.. took a couple smaller branches off Critical+ but 90% is still flowering on day 66 of a 53-56 day flower window.. damn this is taking forever thought the SLH was long want to get this down and drying as it stinks pretty bad now. Probably the most skunky smell I had yet in the flower room.

Here are some trich pics from critical+ at 66 days flower as of today.

Will report back when its harvested and update on other plants.

Hey brother... was wondering if you had a tutorial on how you grow your seeds in the aero? I have some seeds coming and am tossing back and for between RR and seeds directly into the ez-cloner.

Also very nice job on this grow.

Hey man thanks for stopping bye.. ya I used to put them in rockwoll or peat pods after they got about 1/4" tap root coming from the seed in the water/h2o2.

Now here is what I do and I will get some pics up as I have a super skunk seed gonna pop soon.

I cut the neoprene collars in half, you usually see the line that divides the two sections anyway and I cut them there with a razor blade. Then its half the thickness and then I cut out a bit in the middle where the stem usually goes and sit top of seed there so its not pinched and the tap root is sticking through the bottom sometimes it's just about 1/8" showing. As long as some drops of water hit it on your timed spray your good. It will start to grow and you will see the seed sprout.

I have done about 12 plants this way and none of em died and grew up nice and beautiful. Most guys do the peat pods though.. they put them in there till they sprout and just remove them carefully so roots don't tear or get damaged then dip them in water and put in collar. Either way is good but I like as little medium (peat pods) as necessary.

Here is a pic from earlier in the thread to let you know how it looks cut and the seed sitting on top.

Thanks brother... Yea I am looking to do some bubble buckets but hate to have to top fee until the roots reach the bottom. I had some clones that were in rockwool that I picked up from one of the collectives and it was a nightmare. Bugs and disease... not good for my first time trying to grow. Wasted 300.00 on genetics and had to throw everything away. Never again... seeds only from now on as to insure that if anything goes wrong... I can blame myself and figure out what went wrong. YOu should post up a tutorial on this as I am sure you will get alot of fallowers as alot of people are converting to aero to cut out bugs.

Thanks again and look forward to your pic.

P.S. I ordered TD and hope I can get it to grow. Sorry about yours not making it.
