I need to get in the tent and do the same. I’ve been thinking about dropping 20-25% intensity the last 2ish weeks as well.

Man! Thats awesome :ok_hand: thats some motivation for me right there. When outside do you top them or let them grow how they grow?

I fim some and supercrop some and some I just bend over. I try to spread them out as much as possible during veg. Then let them go. The ones closest to the pond need very little water once their roots get established. I grow cover crops under and around the plants. My best plant gave me 5lbs Im gonna put 2 Northern lights clones closest to the pond.

I am beginning to see what may be seeds forming on the two colas that I pollenated. Not sure yet.

Sickly NL-5 continues to fatten up despite its leaves drying and curling.

Here is healthy NL-2 (NL-3 is similar)

Will post a proper update tomorrow morning in the grow off topic. :man_mage:

Edit: I heard from Troy at Torr Kitchen. My vacuum still will ship very soon.

Thank you @plumbdand they may still look bushy, but there is alot of gaps in between things to let light in. I didnt want to take away to much big leaves!

What’s the still for? Is it like a source turbo thingy?

8 Likes

Quite right.
It is essentially a ā€œcomponentā€ version of the Source Turbo.
Higher processing capacity than the Source Turbo.
You can check it on the Torr Kitchen web site.

Is there a decent capacity affordable c02 extractor kit anywhere? I want one for essential oils but use for cannabis is a plus.

I don’t remember the price but there is a unit out there. I can’t remember who has it…perhaps @Covertgrower. I considered it before settling on the Torr Kitchen set.

I’d try a Source but I guess for lots of essential oils you have to steam or co2 extract them. Not sure why that is. I already have a co2 tank so figured I’d see if there is a budget friendly kit for co2. I will admit I haven’t looked around much but figured you all would know better than my random searching :slight_smile:

Now that is what I call sticker shock. I did see this thing on amazon but had no idea if it works considering the price and simple nature

that and if it’s all you need and such.

I don’t enough about it to answer. Perhaps @AfgVet can chime in.
I think someone is doing butane extraction as well.
Check this out @serf
