Posted on Harvest Section: How Soon til Harvest?
^ i need to focus on patience lol
At this stage, im committing to 4 more weeks. (Feels like I should see my finish in 3-4, but we’ll see!)
Hopefully she pushes towards the end quickly. The lean maybe weight induced. U may want to support those colas before they snap branches
yeah its bamboo time today for sure was thinking i needed to do that soon
Girlfriend suggested that instead of sticking bamboo into the soil possibly damage roots I should just use ties and tie the branches together.
The way the shape is designed this might be okay-- tying each opposite branch to each other, so if they are both heavy and falling they are technically supporting each other. @PurpNGold74
I tried that method but as the buds swelled more and more, the whole plant became top heavy and ultimately had to stake them anyways. I don’t think putting a stake in the pot had any adverse effects.
okay thats what i was thinking also, that tying it might be a temporary fix until its TOO HEAVY and TOO LATE =P im just so nervous about staking into the soil, I know the root zone is massive on this plant and I want to minimize any damage done to the roots- this is nerve racking lol
I know the HPS is a pain in the ass, anyone recommend a good filter program to use?
anyways, is a good chance to see structure and foliage.— I have super-CHOPPED/Defoliated nearly every plant i’ve ever grown, this is by far the highest amount of leaves i’ve let remain lol but im happy with it, it’s powering the bud growth well. —
I have a slight confession… and this is a MAJOR confession. ---- The True Saga of this plant.(And True Lineage!)
- At the start of this, I was 100% Convinced this was my SuperSnowDog plant, I ran 12 originally but only kept 5. - The remaining 7 plants were placed in a bed outside- I used a ton of FoxFarmHappyFrog Soil (was almost 6 large bags) – and this one, was the one to “RECOVER” Outside. - I had originally had 2 plants that I dug up and brought in in this one container, the other did not survive the transplant well and I made the decision to abort her
Dramatic Music Plays ----- It comes to be, that this plant is in face my Durban Walker Strain; Durban Poison Skywalker OG. - I had a mix of Lemon Skunk, Durban Walker, and SuperSnowDog. (My favorite 3 strains!
— I just misjudged which one was the one I REMOVED — . SO, say hello to Queen Durban Walker
— as en ending to this beautiful story, the SSD I removed has been revegging outside this entire last 7 weeks and is 4x the size of this one now, with 4 arms. - going to bring her in after this one is done
^^^^^^^^^
Yay more weed! That Durban Walker sounds like a sick cross… hows she smoke and smell???
I wish this problem for you bud lol
The smell is what gave it away- the room is LIT right now- its actually overwhelming the entire attic lol
-
the smell is very unique to durban poison with an almost gasoline skunk smell with an almost berry undertone that comes from the skywalker OG - I havent sampled any yet, im going to wait until first sign of amber then im going to snip one bud and give it a 2-3 day dry.
-
the smoke is very strong, its always an instant head high that lasts for a good 2 hours. - a very HAPPY high is the best way to put it. - this and the Lemon Skunk are very similar, both pack the same punch- seed came from 31% tested through dispensary, which im not too well read on if when growing the same seed does that neccisarrily mean the POTENTIAL THC % is going to be 31% or close to it everytime? or is that its max potential?

Have you ever had a grow that you didn’t defoliat…?
I’m only asking because you have so much wasted light…
How big is that area…?
You have such a big pot and no plant…please understand that I am not trying to be mean or discourage you… I just want you to have more medicine than you can smoke…
And right now I don’t think your heavy defoliation is working for the best…
I do believe in defoliation. Just not to that extent… your indoors and are limited to your light output and created environment…
Your plant needs as many leaf’s as possible to do its thing… for real…
I Started with the heaviest defoliation techniques, and have gradually worked my way towards leaving leaves alone~ lol – I just find it fascinating seeing how you can enduce certain growth. - damn thing grows like a weed!
My grow area isnt the issues i run into, its family-law-life, im actually limited by the consent of several people to do what im doing~ I had 12 girls to start with this last round, and gradually I came back and they were either destroyed/removed or i feel like vindictivly fucked with---- lol
100% of the defoliation/feeding/lst/ALL work has been my project. but i got too many hands int he garden on a daily basis. I started tying shit down so people would leave shit alone. lol
ALSO: Huge note, this plant suffered outside from SEVERE heat stress and overwatering because those helpful hands also thought the outside “Project” was fair game so they watered that shit everyday lol
- I brought it back to life, 80% of the defoliation on this plant HAD TO be done because I found early stages of mold on lower branches and the plants leaves were horribly yellow/brown/shit.
~ I breathed this thing back to life beleive it or not lol
- It was living on a 8.0 ph in soil all throughout veg- with no nutrients (Except for when I splashed it with some rarely).
-I honestly was gonna be onto my round 8 grow (I have 8 small Lemon Skunks in the works under pretty weak CFLs right now (brought them in due to the heat)- Those are 100% my somewhat-secret project- not going to be putting them in until the new SSD is done, and plan to expand the entire area. ceiling is slanted at the top but has about 4ft above for the light to move up an down~
- the only thing i’ve done to my secret 8 is LST. focusing on not defoliating.
Ya , it sounds like too many chiefs and not enough Indians… so to speak… not a good thing…
Here is a pic of my last grow that yielded over 20 oz’s of top shelf prime… and a bunch of trim to boot with 5 plants …
Under a 600 watt magnetic ballist in a 3’x5’ double scrogg in a rdwc system …
This pic is 6 weeks from finish… I had to RIP them out of there home and give them to a friend to finish because of certain circumstances…
I really should have defoliated them more…
