OGC 1800w round 2...

[Leafneck 3,090]

Hit the switch yesterday Mark, they're getting taller at an impressive rate so I don't want to get caught out with it

 

They've had 3 weeks in the finals so I'm happy with it, some of these are going to be impressive, I can just tell. 

 

I saved a ogc for a friend and kept it in the 1.5 litre pot, but he's going to get some cheese cuttings now so I'm running an extra ogc in a little pot so I got a t peice and joined a dripper line to the pot so should be interesting, I'm going to strip the bottom half of the plant just so I get a few main colas from it, little extra smoke and fun little experience

Week 1 of flower over, start of week 2 today. 

 

I switched all 3 lights to 400w last week, and started giving the plants 3 feeds over 24 hours and they have grew like mad! Massively impressed. Going to have to tie 3 plants down as they seem to be over taking the others so that will be Mondays job. 

 

Moved the lights up a few more inches now, and see what next week brings! 

 

This is the 1st run I've used silica at full strength, also gave 5 weeks veg instead of 4 and its certainly the thickest I've had my stems so soon in to stretch. I'll upload some pics next weekend.

@Leafneck good luck with the flower show mate

 

Can't wait to see this thread in a few week's 

 

All the best

Week 2 of flower complete, these are flying! Loving this grow although this unpredictable weather is really throwing my temps around.. Keep having to look at the weather and adjust the oil rad to suit. 

 

All fans are going to be turned right up untill it cools down, had some droopy leaves the last 3 days and didn't realise rh was hitting 80%

Maybe I'm feeding too often and they are heavy? I'll grab some better pics in a couple days if correcting the rh doesn't sort it. 

 

Budding has started which is my favourite part, really need to control the height now as they are getting a handful! 

 

Trimmed bottom 3rd and will be putting a oscillating fan in next week and a dehumidifier in from week 5.

Spot on buddy looking good.

 

Are they drooping at lights on?

[Leafneck 3,090]

This was just after 12 hours of lights off bro, temps was reaching 34s lights on a humidity was very high both lights on and off. 

[Exhale 22,684]

@Leafneck take a butchers at them lights on mate, if they're "praying" or have perked up I wouldn't worry much about the lights off droop, they don't look like they're really unhappy.

 

Probably a relief droop! it's been a bit hot lately  

[Leafneck 3,090]

They're look happy now environment is under better control. Stretch has slowed down already and bud production is well under way

With these weather conditions more specifically the heat you've done well to get things back on track 

 

I'm going say that leaf drooping was down to the temps mate   could have just been waking up though? 

 

All the best

Well in to the swing of things, just gone past week 3 so start of week 4. 

 

Didn't stretch alot more after day 16 which is great! I'd say this is the quickest they've transitioned into making bud, oh I've missed that rich fuely smelling ogc smell!! This should be a fun grow. 

I'm working away untill Friday so looking forward to seeing what happens of 3 nights without seeing them.

3 days can make a huge difference 

 

Nice to know the stretch was manageable and now over. 

 

Bud production time 

 

How you been handling the heat mate?

 

All the best

Found one riddled with bananas, cut the whole thing down and took it out the room... Finger crossed ay. 

 

2nd crop now every branch is trying to collapse, phoned my mate who gave me the ooze (boost) he gave me, said he put hardener in it ffs... Asked which one he said the bottle of rox I gave him January

so that would explain why my star dawg was so solid and went limp also.. Tasted extremely nice and strong and alot of flavour so going to carry on with it. 

 

My lesson today is buy your own stuff you tight arse. 

 

This grow is going to have about 200m of garden tie again now

[Leafneck 3,090]

 

Real shame but It did seem to be the smallest plant in the room, temps definitely could of had a role to play, freak English summer. 

 

I'll be tying up like this later on, a real ball ache of a chore but I get to inspect my crop for balls aswell
