Wintergreen I love her. I accidentally bumped a nug and got this strong coffee smell, add that to the list of smells for this beauty. The leaves are starting to turn purple and so is her stalk. I’m pretty sure she is going to finish last.

Polaris looks yummy. Also I’m now having a problem with her I’m not sure what is, but the top leaf edges are turning brown. I’m not too worried about it being at 8 weeks in flower but would like to find out what is. So far I’m guessing light stress or overwatering. Has anyone seen this? Should I be worried? If anyone needs more info just let me know. The problem will be on the last pics.

Update on the girls. It is day 62 and everyone is looking and smelling great despite the nute burn. Only two of the plants got the burn, wintergreen being one of them :confused:.
Also a big note. Now I’m pretty sure the Polaris is Mendocino purple cheddar. My two reasons for believing this is 1. She turned purple 2. The undeniable cheese smell I get after that beautiful deep hash when I first smell her. I guess there could be a 3rd and obvious one at that, no chem smells lol. So from now on Polaris is Mendocino purple cheddar. Whoops!
Oh yeah I’ll probably be harvesting two plants this week. Looking at the trichomes they are about 90% cloudy 10% clear no signs of Amber yet. This round I want to try and harvest around 90-100% cloudy/milky. In the past I wouldn’t look at the trichs until all pistils changed color at this point the trichomes on my plants were probably 50/50. I’ll post some trichome shots later on.

Old family purple she’s a pretty one for sure. I was hoping for a TK dominant plant with urkle undertones or a nice blend. This smells like purple urkle all day
no TK smells, yet… can’t wait to see what else I find. I know shes in there.

Looking great, @stONER775! You’re almost ready to scratch “never finished a grow journal” off the list! Can’t wait to see the trimmed buds and final numbers from each plant.

BTW - which RapidLED light are you using? Also, did you end up running the heater much? How low would your temps get when the lights were out?

Thanks for watching, I’m excited af to say the least. I’m going to be cutting two tonight for sure so I can have a decent cure for 420. I’m planning on doing some more journals, stay tuned for those.
As for the light I went with the 2x2 chilled led, and let me tell you I love it man. I’ve only grown under a mh lamp in the past and a next light mini led, and this chilled led from rapid blows it out the water for half the price. I still haven’t cranked it full power it so bright, if you don’t have eye protection your going to need it for those lights. Also i didn’t use the heater to much I think just the first 2 weeks. The reason I used a heater was when the lights went out, I think temps were 63-62*f lights out and my little heater would keep it around 68 with lights out. My temps never went over 75 while running. I’m sure any light you get from them will be badass

Cool - thanks for the info. I’ll check out the light because I’m searching for my first LED for flowering. I’m guessing yours will be a little small for my area, but they might have others that would do what I need.

Oh, and regarding your temps, I know it’s too late to matter at this point, but I reach much lower temps in my room when the lights go out. In fact, the temps would go as low as 51, and often stay in the 50’s when the lights are off. The only impact this had on my grows was to make the colors EXPLODE! I have strains that tend to have a purple color to them, and that purple really pops during my winter grows.

Happy trimming tonight! I’m excited to see your finished work!

My room is in the corner of 2 outside walls, lights off it get down to 15c…but I get all types of purples and reds and others. Too scared to run a heater…hear too many horror stories of burned down houses.
Fall colours in middle of winter.

Update! So I harvested everything now. The Mendocino purple cheddar and the bag seed were harvested at 9 weeks flower and were hung and dried for 13 days in the garage/shed we have in the back yard. The old family purple and winter green were taken down at 72 days and could of gone another week or 2 but I’m harvesting based on trichomes, I’m going for as much cloudy as I can get. I hung these two girls in the tent with Temps L65-H72 humidity 27%. The OFP only needed 6 days to hang and dry im guessing its because she was all nugs, barely any leaves, and of course the humidity. The wintergreen is still hanging today is day 8 of drying and I’m pretty sure she is ready to trim and jar up but we shall see.

The mendo purple cheddar smells like a strong flo with cheese on the back end :yum: its the only way to describe her, she smells so good. I’ll try and post the smoke report today. I forgot to tag you @Tommy_McCain I also replied in the other thread about the old family purple.

That sounds good. I have the Triangle S1 going now and two Smell My Finger’s (Purple Urkle x Kush). I may just get another pack of the Triangle S1’s. Also I may try something with Mendo Purp and Triangle. Mendo Purp is supposed to lean more sativa. He really has some mouthwatering strains. Grape and Gas sounds good…I just don’t need another heavy indica. I smoked some Purple Diesel a few months ago. Smelled amazing, like grape diesel. It was a little weak for my taste. I want it to feel like a hammer hit you in the head.
