BigMike55’s Ongoing Cannabis Log (Part 1)

Only reason i went with 2 separate units is i could have taller plants under one and shorter ones under the other.

Oh that’s right, I remember you saying that now. I am quite surprised with that light to be honest. There old lights sucked rocks but their new stuff is certainly proving to be decent. Really cool.

They are pretty decent budget lights. I actually have another in my veg tent. Only one in a 4x4 tent is great for veging. Not nearly enuff for flower. Maybe in a smaller tent. But my veg tent is… wel, youve seen it. Its not doing too bad for 150w.

Yeah, they really stepped up their game. I love that you can find cheaper alternatives for growing. I won’t be tossing my HLG any time soon but I also wont be tossing my Mars or Viparspectra. They all get the job done.

This may very well be the final pics of the Blue Cookies. They are very close to harvest time. By the look of the trikes i say less than a week. These girls have fattened up considerably. If the buds continue to fatten up i may give till Saturday or Sunday. I want a little more amber in there and its just not there yet. My last harvest of these girls I let go 10 weeks exactly from 12/12. While the smoke is very good, I think another week would make this some smoke to remember. This grow? 10 weeks was yesterday.

For sure!! I’ll send you some updates soon, when the action starts to happen.

I haven’t done any grow logs. I do keep notes and write down as much as I can, especially when it comes to breeding. I should get into logging grows on here, some really awesome threads, I really get into them. It’s definitely a great way to experience grows that you may never get the chance to first-hand, with all the strains out there.

Yes it really worked out good for me having my grow all logged in one place. This is the second time I have run Blue Cookies and its cool to be able to go back and see what differences. Plus all you great folks get to see my stuff and comment or offer advise.

Hope they turn out great for you like they have for me. I actually would be growing her again but there are other strains I wanna try. And I can always revisit my babies anytime. I have seed.

So here is my veg tent. First up is the two Monstercropped Afghani plants.

Some closeups. The stems are hard as tree branches. They are more than ready to flower. Just look at those budsites stacking up.

And lastly, the two donated Grape Cookies. I had some problems with these. They did not look very good from the jump, then new growth started looking very yellow. I ended up flushing the soil with phed water at 6.4. Got ppm under 500. They are already looking a little better.

By the way. If you zoom in on those monstercropped plants or the bud shots, you can see tons of pistils and even trichome formation. Remember. These girls are still in veg. 18/6 light schedule! Incredible.

I really should take a couple clones from her before I put in to flower. But Im pretty sure I would not be able to grow them to harvest. But dayyy-yummm! This is a great plant and the tops and nugs are hard as rocks, I shit you not. At harvest i mean.
I might do it anyways, might work out.
