Update on the results here. Short story is i need to focus on training now that i can manage to not kill them lol.

Bruce Banner = 1.5 pounds “but it had 2 lights”
Beaver Cookies = 1.2 pounds
Gelato Runtz = 0.82 pounds
Girl Scout Cookies = 0.64 pounds
King Cone = 0.57 pounds

Beaver cookies was the best overall result but was trained really well to the lights, i expiremented with different methods shared by the community here. Going to keep dialing this in.

Next run -

King Cone, Beaver Cookies, Burnt Orange Cookies, Cherry Runtz, Breakfast N Bud, Gorilla Runtz.

That’s a great harvest. Don’t feel bad about the hermi. Just finished my first harvest, 4 plants all of them hermied. I’m thinking it was mostly a water temperature issue. Need a chiller. Still the stuff is great.
Keep on growing

Thanks @Bobboo ! All hermied eh? My first run was crazy, but nothing went hermie and i had no chiller. How hot is your water exaclty? I think mine was pushing 80 degrees.

I think light burn/stress is what triggered Breakfast n Bud if that helps @Bobboo

21 days from dropping beans, for most of these girls except for King Cone which is about 14 days.
Res was mixed 9 days ago, starting to trust the AN mix a little more with all the additives. Bacteria war is over and PH is a steady 5.8 without touching it at all sense i adjusted it the first time. Chiller was acting up so i flushed it for 3 hours with 15% H2O2 and Flawless Finish to dissolve any salts. Chiller back to normal now.

I will be transitioning to flower food and not changing the res at all this run.

Starting veg food mix @ 90 gallons -

4 ml per gallon Advanced Nutrients Connisour Grow part A and B, 8 total.

Update on the grow. I started this run over everything was healthly, but I stunted some overwatering in addition to one being about a week younger. Sense it was early, i dropped more beans and the new girls are about 14 days from planting them.

So far so good, i actually think i managed to not overwwater them this time. Thanks @CooterJuice for the tip on getting them started right.

Quick mid-week update, 17 days from seed. Everything is rockin and rolling, 6.0 - 6.2 ph 630 TDS without any adjustments for over a week. Weekly bacteria, fungus, and Carboload reapplication brings it back up to 6.2 then it drifts down to 6 over the week.

Breakfast n’ Bud - Extremely vigorus plant. Just trimmed her a tiny bit to let light hit the lower branches.

Thanks @CooterJuice amazing how just putting them in the system with the airstones gives them the perfect amount of water until you get roots down in the sause. You helped more than you think. Getting them from seedlings into the 4" rockwool cubes i was struggling to not overwwater them and stunted them …every time. Amazing difference, thanks again Coot.

Outta :heart:, Right on brother!! Im always glad to help man!! :+1::v::beers::dash:
