Things are progressing nicely
I'm a bit in love with this little black Sundae from penthouse seeds... Its getting really frosty early. Supposed to be a 60 day job but I think sticking it in a 16 ltre pot will long it out to mid 70s, but it will be worth the extra time..

This fastbuds Bubblegum is growing beautifully too.

I needed a n easy maintenance run this time as I'm busy so I let them all go natural shape with a small trim up after stretch of the lower growth and the odd fan here and there

It's all getting a bit bushy in the tent.. Might need to nip of a few fans here n there tomorrow.

The black Sundae is getting really frosty.. The 3 furthest along are on the pk for last and next 2 feeds then it should be getting close to Dragon force time.

Didn't quite get any out for Xmas. Had I have run them in appropriate pot sizes for 60 day strains instead of the 16ltre root nurse jobs I bought for a different grow I would have at least some quick dry stuff to smoke lol.
The xtra week or so for the first harvest will be worth it I think.
The black Sundae (back left) is ready to get dragon forced for a week ish then out. Then it will be the bubblegum and gorilla infested Gelato to get the same treatment. I should have a few weeks supply from this lot at the end.
They look frosty with the lights out.

Happy bit between Xmas and the other good bit folks
It was getting a bit disorganised in the tent so had a clean up and move around.

I super cropped the leggy super sativa usa kush due to the HLG's being dialed in lovely for the rest of the gals. (the needs of the many and all that).

She's now moved to the back and the late flower girls are in the best airflow now as the damp weather is keeping humidity a bit too high.

I have the Bubblegum, black sundae and the Gorilla Infested Gelato on the first of 10 days of dragon force followed by a plain water feed prior to harvest.
Its a good solid quick run this time.. Very enjoyable

I'm letting all this run go much longer than the approx breeder timescales... The big pots and cool temps in the tent are longing them out a bit, but judging them on what I see through the loop, pistil colour, the fact that they are continuing to fatten with fresh pistils forming.. I'm leaving them some more.
Bud density is insanely hard compared to my organic runs.. Terps and frost are big.. I'm really trying to concentrate on good harvest timing, a low slow dry and try curing in Grove bags this round.... The HLG's kick arse now I have them dialed.

 

[RustyStarbuck72]

Still finishing this run off.. I'm making the most of having a bit of organising time before I bin this tent and get the new set up started to see how far I can push them.
Some good fade on the Black Sundae... The buds on this thing are really big and dense.

I only use half this tent so I'm down sizing to a 1.2m x 1.2m to house the HLGs

Then hopefully starting another 1.2x12 up to maybe play with some photos again.
Everything else is banging on nicely

Happy days

Finally finished off the fastbuds bubble gum, purple punch and black Sundae... The latter being the star of the show.
The bubble gum is also looking good.. I let her go till 50/50 Amber.. Even though it was not fully faded... Huge fat hard Nugs so I'm happy.
Not that impressed by the purple punch, hence no pics.. The weekest always gets nibbled at if the jars are empty here lol
