It's my Grow Room - JWTG

I’ll work on some better pics from the auto-tent tomorrow during my maintenance window.

Was messing around in there today for a while and the wife texts me that the whole Fing house smelled like Banana Kush. Oops. Gotta limit my time in the garden of delight

I spent some time in the auto-tent this morning with the Banana Kush Twins.

I decided instead of just defoliating, I was going to do a small, partial harvest. Most of these trichomes are nice and frosty on the tops I snipped. This gives me a chance to really see if a milky or amber trichome is what I’m after.


I’ll most likely chop the rest over the next two to three weeks. That should bring me to the harvest of her sister, since she is about 2 weeks younger.

Her sis I have been cleaning along the way. She is so sticky, u can complete maintenance without cleaning the snips during defoliation.

This is her after the top chop session.

I had to add a humidifier to the dry tent today. The tops I cut a few days ago are already too dry. Damn it! :face_exhaling:

Set the he humidifier to 55%. IRH was around 35-40%.

Hopefully this will fix the dry tent issue. Funny, my dry tent is too dry. Damn!

Put them in a bag with a small piece of bread. Buds will take the moisture from the bread.

Doesn’t a paper bag draw out moisture?

I put them in a curing jar with a 62% RH pack for several hours. Last check they were at 10.5% on the meter.

Thanks @BroncoBob and welcome to the community.

I only cut less than a 1/3 of the first plant. Still a lot to go.

Those first samples have dried and been cleaned up and weighed in at 8 grams.

You should be good. Ya, I meant to say baggie w/ a small piece of bread. It helps if its so dry it crumbles.

Thanks B. I’m researching lung rooms right now as I am considering putting one together in the adjacent room. I had my auto-tent there to start with, and I think it may just work.

I just need to learn more about lung room setup first.

So my room is simple and I think the main purpose is to give them fresher air,my exhaust draws the tent in so it has great pull I have a dehumidifier in the room then the room has a humidifier i know if the tent is closed it maintains its heating and cooling process it maintains a nice difference also if needed the fan draws ac air from downstairs. So AC cooled air in when its exhausting

So you do run a separate lung room. I’ve heard you reference previously, but wasn’t sure.

My grow room runs around 89 degrees and 35% RH. I can manage the grow tents okay, but my dry tent sits right in front of the dehumidifier exhaust and causes the inside RH of the dry tent to run around 32% RH. WAY TOO LOW. I did add the T3 humidifier to it yesterday, but still dialing that in.

That’s what got me thinking about a lung room. Once I learned what one was. :grin:

I always thought that the term lung room meant where does your grow get its fresh air from…so my bedroom where the 2 tents are is my lung room because the house HVAC vents into this room providing a fresh air flow so the tents are always getting the CO2 they need…

Yes from my understanding also fresh air. If I have the tent open the whole attic getts hot closed up itaintains its heat or cooling right now the tent with fans running 78deg in the dark the lung room is 76 so its still a different tent and it draws the aur by the humidifier

Morning Jim. Girls look great. Did you harvest and put your bud in jars to start with.?

Morning @Mosca. No sir, I harvested and put in the dry tent.

The finished bud is from the first two cola tops I chopped about a week ago.


I let them get nice and dry, first round, way too dry, and then I actually have some more TerpLock bags on the way, but jars work in the meantime.
