Chez Calix - Journey of a Junior grower

I have my tent room compelty blacked out… i haven’t gone in there during 12 off . If I had to I made sure had a thick tarp over the tent.

It’s possible I use my phones screen light to navigate a switch onnthe fan before goin to work in the morning

I don’t think it’s Fromm my vents. I did make sure to fold them down anytime I thought they’re might be a light issue

Thanks for the response.
It’s the only one spot that’s i found that ,there is maybe 7-9 main branches from this plant and I checked them all.

Once I just poked at it, it sort of dissapeared lol…
Ffs
I will be vigilant …

I had my sample bud today from Saturday’s pluck.

Very nice high . Nothing heavy at all. And didn’t last too long. However it did pack a punch and Came on quick .

Definitly needs more time :frowning: lol

The microscope goes all haywire when it picks up any of the lights …like a old computer game crashing. Half the screen purple and green then the App freezing.

Ol junk phone I guess …it works with the chrome book just requires patience and a steady hand.

No pics of nanner lol I crushed It by accident and it dissapeared

might just be dumb luck but honestly i think it has to do with the pots being taller then the vent

My Strawberry Kush hermmed on me first grow - genetic herm - no bananas in the buds; but a skirt of white pistils and boy parts underneath.
I wasn’t too surprised, the growmie I got them from said they hermmed on him every grow.

Second grow with them (and a lot of reading later) - I ran my lights at 11.5 on / 12.5 off - an extra hour of dark.
Since then I haven’t had any herms.

Brilliant :slight_smile:
I appreciated that tip.

I don’t think I’ll have too much trouble. . . I might Be a bit upset if the potency is effected.
But over the next7-10 I’ll be flushing and chopping I think .

ANd pray imdont see much more advancement on hermie transition on the 9lb which was my pride and joy lol . Or the other two

I, still proud of it for my first flowering attempt.

I would just cut em out if possible and keep on trucking. You got this far. I would ride her out to day 60 at least.

Okay. I value your input trememdously as you have stuck with me through my first run!

I am not impatient… I have found zero other namers so I will continue .

Is there any concern for havin them in tent together? Should I seperate them if it’s Ann option??

Thanks Mr.Jon

From what I was told just as love as you can get to the nanners there shouldn’t be much of a problem. You don’t have much farther to go.
See if you can get more trichomes more in focus. They appear to be a little smashed.
I don’t know if you are but try not to squeeze your nuggs. I know it’s tempting. I usually have one that I may check for density. But only that bud I will squeeze throughout the grow.

Ahh!! Good call! I guess I have squeezed the closest cola a few times checking the density . AND most likely that’s the same bud I was taking pictures of trichs on.

Thanks!

If could get your take on something i watched last night -I will reference the video.

The grower was over seein another grow set up, and mentions that during flowering. , if the lights are too strong, the plant will shoots off leafs close to but sites in an attempt to protect the flower/buds From the lights. Causing a lot of tight leafs between all the buds, short node space .

The grower then recommends turning off the the additional LED That was on. For the last couple weeks. In addition to havin some heatting issues.

I’m noticing a lot of leafs jamming in between the colas.
do impotentially have too much light, or maybe the strains genes to grow short internodes .
Mine are not as bad as that.

48 days into flower

I found a post on here that suggested looking at the plant materials under a microscope / rather than the plant up right with the loupe.

I took a small piece of each plant and put it on a table so i could sit down and take better photos.
I’m Getting better at it

Is there a specific spot to look at on the plant for trich developement, or just a bud/ flower site.

I got a new phone , so I should be able to capture better photos. Just need to go into the settings…

Anyway, some more from my other device .

The middle plants buds feel really crispy and dry…I watered yesterday…any reason they would Be overly dry?
Humidity is between 47-51%…i May try and run the dehumidifier for the next two weeks down there but summers creeping in and not sure I can drop another $300 on a second dehumidifier…




And my (not so) secret super special experiment below

Wo ahh …Just noticed the leaves on the right plant are curling up and colouring…none of the leaves are looking great to be honest!

My PH Pen needs to be calibrated i think. My friend has a spare one I just haven’t been able To get to it’ll.

Damn.
