Sorry it's been a while, been as busy as very one else! So we are at day 28 since popping through. I have been experimenting with some LST on the smallest of the plants (happy to try it out this time and see what happens). My temps have been great and humidity also. Maybe a little hot in the day, reaching 28.4° but that's not a sustained level.

You may also notice three more have been planted tonight, a little brave to try and rotate on my first attempt, but nothing ventured nothing gained and I really don't want to have to wait another 9-10 weeks for another grow!

Hope you have all been enjoying the heatwave (in the UK, also known as British Summertime!)
Yer, I'm enjoying the uk summer... at last
 
Dwang. Plants looking good. Saw some spots on 1. Could be the lighting making it look like that. Anyway, you using any cal mag yet? Also, if you can get some pics with the flash on your camera on tbat would be great. I would love to see the colors on those.
Thanks.
 
Hey all!

Apologies for the lack of posts, had a busy few weeks with work etc!! Here we are at day 39, all temps etc have been spot on, been very happy with the environment to be honest. Maybe it's just beginners luck, or maybe I've got the hang of the tent! You'll notice I've also started the next 3, probably stupid to try and get a rotation on my first attempt, but don't see why I shouldn't give it a go! Don't fancy waiting a whole cycle again for another harvest... they all seem to be doing very well, maybe a little stretch in them, but my theory behind that is, that my light is waaaaaay closer than the sun (!?!)! Let me know what you think, as always, I love reading your replies and learning that little bit more!

I say go for it I expected to be lucky enough to get something to live first grow I'd do good I'm doing it now. Have harvested 2 plants 2 more in next 2-3 weeks then I have a photo I'm going to flower that's been going 60 days. I planted 4 one week apart it's worked out nice.
It looks like your going to have same luck they look great and your half way there. I found curing harder then growing lol yeah can mess that shit up I have not but fear mold. Well I wil sit back down I can't wait to see how this turns out!
 
Day 49, just a few more pics. Changed my set up slightly. I now have a 6" sucking out through the filter, a 6" cool tube pulling cool air from outisde, straight thru the tent and out the other side. I also have a 5" pulling clean fresh air from outside into the tent. Don't worry, it has a great bug mesh on it! I have turned my ballast up to 600wBoost (which I believe is about 690w-720w) and my temp is sitting nicely at 25.4°C and RH is hovering about 43%. My 3 babies are at 2 weeks now and I don't think they have stretched too much, but please let me know if you think otherwise! I'm considering starting the flush on big ones. They are 7 weeks, which is stated as time from seed to harvest, but I'm not convinced! Does anyone have any experience using Canna Flush? I put 20ml in 9lts of water and it dropped my tap water ph of 7.7 to 4! Do i need to ph up before feeding the ladies?? It seems madness to flush out chemicals by adding more chemicals!! Please help!!

Add ph... You want to keep it in proper range. @Grim Reefer can hopefully advise.. ( he is a knowledge ninja)

The girls are looking great.. Sorry ive been mia myslef, but you are doing really well. No serious hickups.
 
One of the ladies' leaves have gone very yellow, however, the other two are still a strong vibrant green. They apparently only take 7 weeks, which was 2 days ago. I think I read somewhere that the leaves turn yellow apparent the end of the plants life...? Just a bit worried as wouldn't want them to go bad at this late stage!!

On a totally separate subject, can anyone advise on drying and curing... I've been looking into the paper bag method, but I'm so unsure about a lot of things! I'm more worried about this part than the growing! Do i cut the buds off and trim, then straight into bags? Or do I hang for a while? I don't really have ano ideal place to hang dry either...

Thanks
