What's new

Barney's Mimosa x Orange Punch........

Runtz x Layer Cake ended up at 89 oz but i fucked it up and did a very deep defoliation in week 6 of flowering and it seriously stunted bud growth..........not sure what i was thinking at the time but remember the room was overgrown and i felt i had to do something. My heaviest defoliation is always at the switch to flowering, and although i did a defoliation then, it wasn't heavy enough. With that though, in 11 LED grows, I'm averaging 103-104 oz in the 4 x 8 room, with the highest at 116 oz and the lowest at 86 oz. I think 3 have been under 100 oz and 8 at 100 or higher. Strain selection is the key to yielding high weights, along with keeping everything healthy throughout the grow. This grow i'm finishing now will be over 100oz I think, not only because of the cola sizes and quantity, but the shear density of most of them.

P.S. An after thought- i think the Runtz x Cake strain would have gotten to 100 oz if i didn't screw it up, just saying.

Really the big issue for me now is how little time i put into the room. Other than watering and emptying the dehumidifier, not much of me is required as i've pretty much figured it all out with the LED's. i've been having some continuing health issues, so it's important to ease my daily effort and keep it stress free.

I've decided to do Glookies next crop, as i own the seeds already, it's a monster yielder and i wanted to do another GG#4 hybrid. Next time after i'm dying to do a "kush" again of some sort, and i'm currently reviewing my options.
 
another 4-5 days should helps these along..........still just a bit early on most of them.
 
looking sweet as always, I find myself doing the same thing trying to work smarter not harder I will be 70 in a couple months thats what got me intsrested in the way you grow and the results of first 12 pots really inpressed me,so ill will be following your journals thank again for all the great pics and reading.
 
Uno when i looked at your earlier pics of the grow for what I could see I didn’t think they were going to turn out like they did.I’m quite surprised how compact the buds are..to me they appeared loose sativa like…….they are so chunky sshz.

I’ve looked at the Glookies on WGFT it doesn’t mention yield but it looks dank af.

ps pics look great.
 
Glookies is a heavier yielder than what i'm currently doing, and received better ratings all around. Check seedfinder.eu.........

The bud density is the key with these.......I've seen plants that threw off more buds, but the bud weight of these rivals many kushes i've done. Things are leaning, some are falling, but it's too late to take the room apart. Nice thing is, everything looks better and better day to day.

What continues to be confusing though is, Growdiaries has 154 grow reports on thsee. Some very detailed, some not, and some still in veg/flowering- some finished reviews claim it's 80-100% sativa, others state it's a heavy indica. I can't remember seeing things on such a wide spectrum. It could have to do with harvest timing, but not sure what i'm going to end up with.

Sunday will be done 9 weeks of flowering, and i'll chop the most done ones- that could be 3, or maybe 5 or more. We'll see then. The rest I'll wait to next Sat/Sun, when i take everything else down. The best reviews, I think, are from people who have gone the longest. I'll add most of the completed grow reports i've read were from 1-2 years ago, and they were under HPS, not LED's. Most of the current grows are under LED's, but not yet finished.............
 
Some pic's from today.......looking better and better, day by day.

Click on the two smaller box attachments too........
 
So, lets review.......today is day 61- Barney's claims it will finish in days 60-63. Many growers say it need to go 1-2 weeks more than that.

I've hit them twice with the molasses, I'm adding 15 ml of Cal/Mag per 15 gallon of water. Also they are getting 450-500ppm of bloom, every other watering. The alternating watering is just plain, clean, pH'd water. They are yellowing up quite a bit, which is to be expected at this point. The humidifier is set at 45%, so it's running 24/7. I'm leaving the door open to help cool the room, since the dehumidifier pushes out heat. Ideally, I want to be between 75-78 degrees this last week or so.

There is some variation in the room, some plants are farther along than others. Interesting that the left side of the room appears farther along than the right side. The LED's were set at the same height, so not why that is.
 
So that's 1/3 of the room.........still any doubters that 100 oz isn't possible? lol

I'll probably have to do 4-5 plants more tomorrow, then the rest next weekend.
 
one more final post, detailing the grow, analyzing the high and discussing final weights........maybe in 10 days or so.
 
The resin content continues to amaze me.....

No frosting anywhere..it’s all tric heads 😍.your daughter been around to sample or to pinch some gummies 😁
 
We see the kids and grandkids all the time, they ask when they need something. My last bunch of gummies, around 70 of them, went to my older brother who's having major health issues. I'm finding when i do the gummies, i get heart palpitations, which probably isn't a good thing. I've smoked the scissor hash twice, just single hits, on two mornings and it wrecked me both times......for hours. My neighbor will be my next tester over the weekend. I'm seeing or sending packages to nine people on Wednesday- then on to my largest customer on the 10th when she returns from the shore. Reviews will then come in fast and furious.
 
66 oz in containers, still has to dry and cure more.

Probably at least another 35-40 oz still hanging......my guess right now is 103 oz total.
 
Still drying, 114.6 oz as of right now. 2nd highest yielding grow ever after Ethos Thug Roze at 116 oz. i'll probably lose a few more oz before packaging. Quality is top notch. I gave a bud to my neighbor, who woke up at 4:30am yesterday to go golfing. He smoked a bowl, got the "wobblies" and had to go back to bed for a few more hours sleep.
