James' lil Octo-Burner. One 2x2 Tent. One Octopot. One BIG-ASS light to rule it all!

Thursdays lone in-tent cam shot…

Gonna blow a hole in that canopy tonight :bomb:

Gave her a full 5-Gallon feeding yesterday evening.

Note - the most water I can fit in an empty 6-Gallon Octopot with sleeve installed is 5 Gallons, At that point, Its right at the fill hole and seeping thru on the edges. I think 6 gallons if you leave top off, and just fill reservior.Just FYI

Ive got the 3rd Octopot at home not being used right now. I may just fill that empty reservoir tonight and give my brain a rest… :beers:

Very sticky stuff…
Kinda surprised :vulcan_salute:





loaded up in Cannatrol :arrow_up: :arrow_down:and set for 8 day Dry Cycle :beers:
Everything else in Cannatrol is in sealed jars or in sealed Grove Bags, so as not to interfere with Cannatrol operation. This is a very small amount to run…

Im thinking maybe 7grams after dry from that anemic cola. Didnt weigh prior to going in…

Looks like Ol Yella did ok - just caught up and all looks great - save a bit of Ol Yella for a smoke comparison with the main crop - would be interested to hear if there is any difference. :smiley: :smiley: Keep up the excellent work!!

Thanks dude! :100:
Im just the ringmaster in this ongoing circus. The girls (and an occasional Y chomosome) are the real stars!

I try to learn a few things, and make it hopefully a bit entertaining for myself and others as well.

Powie Pineapple doing amazingly well Flower Day 50 and Day 1 of Week 8.

Stan helping with the bedding… :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
I can’t express how much I love and depend on that lil guy :100:

She may or may not Harvest this coming weekend. May get some trichome pictures again tonight, but what I see this week will tell me what I want to know for sure

Dude I love your dog. He has so much personality just in pics! I can’t imagine how awesome he is to have around.

And your plant is superb as well.

Possibly final feeding for Powie Pineapple
Week 8, Flower Day 52

Lil girl took all 5 Gallons of nutes

Bloom and CaMg amounts lower than prior. PK Holding strong at 10ml per Gallon

I’ll tell you what, these colas are short and stacked! Very similar to LSD grow prior, but leafier for sure.
Im really loving this Powie Pineapple plant.
Want to grow her again, and unfortunately killed all my cuttings that were in the fridge the past 1-2 months.
Put cuttings in clone tent with too much light on them. I must have bumped dial before I left for lunch, flat tire,etc. Back 3 hours later and… No Bueno :100:

Been trying to nurse them back since Saturday afternoon, but not looking good.
Fried… and not coming back.
Powie Pineapple and Tiki Madman Hawaiian Snow Cone :crying_cat_face:

I think Tiki Hawaiian Snow Cone is gone for good. Dont think my buddy saved any clones either. I can always pop another Powie Pineapple seed and get another pheno…

Still looking on fire @supersecretjim, do you just give them straight water to finish or is that it until the chopper comes out?
Keep rockin’ :smiley: :smiley: :v:t2:

@Nick Gonna keep giving nutes. I dont really flush.
We’ll see how long she goes, but based on magnified view of hairs, I’ll say probably not ready for this weekend.

I’ll make executive decision tomorrow :100:

Looking great in there Jim. Say, “Hi!” to Stanlee for me.

It would be interesting to do a back to basics run, for comparison. One plant under a 400w hps with minimal training just to see.

2 Likes

Thanks Igor!

Hps just makes me cringe :100:
This tent is only 5’ tall. Got enough heat and mold worries as it is :rofl:

Hps and others would be cool to explore, but I just dont see that happening in my grows. I’m barely getting my feet wet with the LED lamps and grow tech Im using now, and Ive been lucky for the most part. I need to really LEARN plants and fine tune my grow.

Would be challenging, though.
On a side note, at some point down the road I’ll just get an AC unit to use on the grows. That will help a bunch,but no room right now.

Thinking about a different solution to my upper airflow problem…
Im thinking a better option over the 20" box fan could be an array of smaller, thinner case fans in series. Could mount right between light bars on the EVO4…

I like this idea a lot. Would also create a little more head room for them to pull the air from.
