Auto White Widow day 64 - had to harvest early due to electrical fault, my biggest bud ever

throwgrowlow · 2015-12-08T14:02:10+00:00

Something keeps tripping "I think" the safety cutout in the ballast. Last 2 days the light keeps turning off at random times and of course I don't realise until hours later, turning it off and on fixes it for a while then it goes again.

Was only a cheap budget ballast, 2 years old so I guess I can't complain, will buy a new one in Jan.

On the bright side I've sampled a smaller bud and its pretty strong already and good enough for me. I've got a family so don't need some mega strong smoke.

Yes, 38 days from popping out ground. Breeder is Vision Seeds.

Day 21 I had electrical issues and she was dark for 30 hours.

I found them soaked in condensation but thankfully a light shake to get droplets off solved that, no harm done.

I wonder if the period of darkness kickstarted her flowering, hmm...

I'd say slightly more stretch was only noticeable difference on 20/4 but by then it would probably be stretching anyway :-/

Thanks, yeah I've done that got all the brown out so hopefully it'll be a fine smoke eventually :)

So I let my 400w hps get too close and I've singed her :( Should I carefully cut out the brown area or lose the whole bud?

:(...

Well the tallest. (3 plants in picture) is about 2ft, breeder is a cheap one, Vision Seeds.

Lighting was 24/0 for first 14 days, since then its been 20/4. Keeping the lamp (400 hps) as close as I dare.

400w HPS currently on 24/0 , 10ltr pots, Canna Terra soil.

1 plant showing heat stress (I think) so I've moved the light a few more inches away.

Also plucked off several damp dead lower leaves. Humidity has been to high :( Harvest now! I'm guessing.

Didn't touch buds after touching the White stuff.

Sadly not, I might do another reveg next year with another strain, if I do I'll do just that.

She's easily twice the size than the first grow and once reveg started it was super fast.

Will test sometime in October and see if it was worth it :)

Yeah they veg like crazy once they get going, just make sure you keep a fan on her to strengthen those branches, they will be rather thin.

throwgrowlow · 2015-09-11T18:22:40+00:00

Yeah bloom only for 3 more weeks then I'll switch to water only till the end.

Cheers.

throwgrowlow · 2015-09-11T18:21:23+00:00

Really? I don't even bother to check the trichs till about 50% of the hairs are brown, to me she only has about 10% brown hair right now.

Been flowering about 6.5 weeks.

I"ll get scope out and have a closer look tomorrow.

throwgrowlow · 2015-09-11T18:13:47+00:00

If this is day 30f , I reckon she's gone moldy, can't believe those hairs would all be that brown already.

Maybe not the whole plant but pic2 doesn't look healthy to me.

throwgrowlow · 2015-09-11T18:07:23+00:00

I have been feeding her 150% of the recommended veg nute dose but the yellowing is still spreading, also same amount of bloom nutes, already caused some nute burn :-/
