Just installed my new clip fan and switched over my exhaust and new carbon filter into MH1. I decided to run my fan and filter down the middle of the tent because i felt like when I had it on the back wall there was a section of the filter sitting against the wall not being utilized.the tents vents are also connected at 2 points now too. I changed all the electrical to where it needs to be for MH1 and MH2. I moved over the old one directional clip fan from MH1 to MH2 so now ive got 2 fans. One blowing in either direction in MH2 Then there is veg just moving along. I found one little strand of web that is probably regular spiders( we’ve got a fuck ton of wolf spiders in our house) so I’ll be hitting veg with neem oil again today. They got thier first dose of neem last night right before lights off. No other signs of spider mites either so finders crossed.

I’ll have pictures of the MH2 chop up later when I begin harvesting.

Alright after 3 hours of cleaning and trimming off fan leaves I am finally done! Luckily my middle child waited until I finished to wake up crying and puke all over the place haha hey what can you do. Okay first 2 pictures are of the bubble gum 2. She was the frostiest but had the worst structure and smallest buds of the 3.
Second up we have the Alien Bubba. I left her whole for now. She’s just so damn cute haha I did find one seed and a few nanners. I’m not that worried about late flower nanners. The seed I found is still pretty green (although it may still germinate) and I only found one. The smells coming off of her were old-school for sure. I can’t wait to try this bud when it’s cured.
Third up we’ve got bubble gum 3. She is the most impressive looking plant I’ve grown yet. Although she isn’t the frostiest the over all growth and structure has been impressive to say the least.ive never grown a plant as stacked as she is. She was also the tallest and her clones were the only ones of the 3 to come out normal.
Lastly we’ve got bubble gum 1. Out of the gate she was the most impressive. She just had really vigorous growth. She had better structure and bigger nugs than bbg3 and is frostier than bbg2.
I’ve decided to cut the plants down and hang by individual branches. My humidity hasn’t been real steady so that should keep my dry time at about 14 days. If I would have kept them whole it would be more like 16 or 17 (more than likely). Well that’s all I’ve got for you today I’ll be sure to do a smoke report in a few weeks to finish up the run.
Peace OhGrow

Right now ive got 3 underdog og (chem dawg x og kush by THseeds) that are in 3gal pots in my veg tent. Those 3 plus one purple punch are going in the tent I chopped tonight next. I also have 5 bubble gum 1 alien Bubba and another purple punch going into flower after that.
The other day I bought some beans I’ve wanted since I started smoking back in 2004. White widow and exodus cheese from green house seeds blue berry headband from Humboldt seed organization and tangerine dream from Barney’s farm. 3 of each of those plus 2 double whiskey sour autos that were a freebie. I think this is the last time I’m buying fem seeds for a while. I just like the idea of a full on Hunt and the vigor that comes with “proper” seeds.

So I’ve been trying to think about my next move with these beans. I really want to grow the blueberry headband. So that’s up first for sure. I was thinking of running the exudos with that to start and then doing the white widow with the tangerine dream on the run after that. I’ll be taking more purple punch clones in the next few weeks to run with what ever seeds I land on. Then I’ll probably run more bubble gum or alien bubba clones with the second run of seeds. The 2 auto seeds I have will have to wait for now. Idk the harvest time for the seeds I’ve got So I don’t want to just throw them in a 5g pot in flower if it’s going to go 80 days.

Well I’ve been growing since 2019 and it’s been great but now that I’m getting my base method dialed in its time to start spicing things up. I want to get a better understanding of what’s going on and how I can close the loop of external inputs as much as possible. My method has been pretty steady this whole time. My first run I used a dr.earth liquid nutes and fox farm tiger blood but every other run I’ve used dr.earth dry amendments. I’ve added recharge into my regiment for mycorizea (idk how to spell) and in the last year I’ve started using build a soil products big 6 and craft blend. I’ve used thier build a bloom topdress before but it’s not something I keep around. Those amendments plus compost and worm castings have been established as what I’m calling my base method. I want to get into a worm bin and trying knf stuff. I’ve never done teas or foliar so everything is up for grabs. I also bought a 2gal pump sprayer with a wand so I’m pretty pumped about that too haha
Just a few observations while I’m waiting for my delivery at work. MH1 the 9 French macaroons. They all look great! All of the ones in the fabric pots are fading fast now. The one in theplastic pot is starting to fade. I realized I’ve been under watering using my new watering wand. This is being addressed. A few of the girls also started to lean so i put in 3foot baboo skewers and tied the main stem to them.This is mostly due to underwatering. They all have great branching and dont fall over. This is my third time running this strain which is the most runs ive run a plant. Ill be keeping a mother of her around for a while for sure. It’s been raining here today so before work I went out to the drive way and grabbed a few more worms to put in the FM in the plastic pot. I think I may just try to collect as many worms as possible from my yard and populate my bin that way. I want to be able to throw castings in the garden out side and not have to worry about bringing in non-native species.
MH2 the 3 bubble gum and 1 alien Bubba are all on day 10 of drying. I’m starting to get a bit of resistance on the bends so we’re getting close. I put a humidifier out side the tent to help control humidity and it seems to be working. It hasnt dropped below 54% and hasn’t gotten above 64%.
Veg the girls are all moving along fine. I over watered one of the alien Bubba clones but it’s finally starting to bounce back.other than that everything is on track I’m ready to move the underdawg og into MH2 they are just too big for that space. I’ve also decided to pop 2 more alien Bubba seeds with 2 of the blueberry headband for the next run. I’ll be taking clones of the purple punch and resetting the French macaroons mom as well.
I’ve decided once I get a new light for MH2 and move the ts1000 over to veg. I’ll move the ts600 over to the 2x2 and use that for moms, clones (if there is room) and my worm bin. I still want to get another mushroom kit to bump up my co2 I’ve just been to busy lately.
That’s what I’ve got for you for today. Take it easy.
Peace

I have never bought weed. I wouldn’t know what dispensary product is like. I do know that I like what I grow. I supplied my friend Jeff with a lot of my stuff before he passed. He said it was as good as anything he could buy on the streets. It helped him through chemo. That’s what counted most. That made me feel good. lol
This grow is looking better than any before. I wish he could try some of what I have going now. lol
I think he would be amazed that an old redneck like me that just started smoking could grow good weed.
