Indoor Garden Update - Cannabis Growing BIG Buds!

avatar

Hello Everyone,

Today I'm super excited because the cannabis plants are starting to explode in growth!

I have two Miracle Macks growing and one Big Mack Superstar.

All three of the plants are pretty impressive and one of them needs a trim.

You might be wondering why this healthy girl needs a trim.

It's really a matter of personal preference and an adherence to the system I'm working for these plants.

Now is the time I am back off the nutrients so that the plants will use up what is in the root system and foliage.

We call this "flushing", and I have more than enough healthy foliage, so I will remove foliage that became a little burned about a month ago from overfeeding.

During this process I also remove some lower buds so that I can have some early smoke to sample!

This also serves to promote fatter growth to the upper more densely packed potent flowers. It's a method that has proven to work for many growers and one that I like to employ.

After the trim I took this photo with a lighter next to one of the main colas.

We can see clearly these are some monster buds this plant is packing, and they are going to get even fatter than this!

I wouldn't be surprised if this plant ends up packing some of the largest buds I've ever grown, despite it not being one of the biggest plants I've ever grown.

The Big Mack Superstar is also producing very nicely. I'm curious to see out of these two which one will produce more bud. I think the Miracle Mack will have girthier buds but overall the Big Mack Superstar might produce more because she has very long bud systems that are plumpening up really nicely.

This journey isn't over yet!

These girls still have at least two or three weeks left to finish up.

I'm hoping for some big plumping as well as an increase in trichome production during the home stretch.

What do you all think of how these cannabis plants are coming along?

I would love to read your thoughts in the comment section!

Thank you for stopping by!

Have a great day! -@futuremind

La verdad hiciste un buen recorte ¿Todo eso que cortaste se usa de abono para la propia planta? No entendi muy bien la parte donde explicas el lavado, no se si es por la traducción o porque es un termino muy especifico.

Gracias mi amigo.
A lo que se refiere este lavado es al sistema radicular.

Eliminación de la alimentación de nutrientes.

Hacer que la planta tenga un sabor más limpio cuando se consume.

Elimino el follaje viejo y el menor crecimiento para promover que el sistema floral principal aumente de tamaño durante las etapas finales.

El viejo crecimiento no lo composto. No es necesario para mí.

Espero que esto se traduzca bien para ti.

Thank you @happyfrog420-new!
Ahh yes they smell great! Very sticky buds too! :D
The Miracle Mack's have a very piney smell with a hint of fruitiness.
The Big Mack Superstar has a more fruity smell and is a little more pungent.

Glad to know you are happy with your flowers. I love my garden like you love your plants. Caring for these plants is not that easy. The way you work hard, these plants will grow do much better. And this is the lighting system is installed with the plants due to which it has increased even more beauty. I can from each of your posts how plants can be grow.

Thanks so much @owasco!
I hope you'll get the opportunity to try the weed I grow one day rather than living vicariously through the photos!
I'll have a harvest coming up here soon, maybe we can make it happen! :D

That would be sweet! I'll try to plan a visit to your neck of the woods one of these days. I never go there except to pick folks up at the airport. It might just be time to explore that city of yours a bit more.

Thank you bro!
Yes I think I have it dialed in nicely in terms of distancing the plants.
I run the lights maximum power most of the time and try to keep the plants at least one foot from the lights. 14 or 15 inches is probably optimal but I sometimes push the limits a little :D

Dude, those are looking so nice and healthy! I do have a few questions about removing the lower bud sites!

At what point do you decide to remove these, and do you wait for the trichomes to mature? Or do you just kinda go with it? I have quite a few lower node sites that I can pull to promote more growth to the rest of the plant, but is there a specific timeframe that you wait for this for the bud to be smokeable??

Nice update man, and I'm glad to see that all the plants are doing well! Just got my LST clips in so I'll definitely be trying my hand with those here very soon! :)

Thanks a lot bro!

To answer your questions, yes it's important to wait for a bit of trichome maturity in my opinion.

I've cut, dried, and smoked lower buds from every stage of growth. Early stage sometimes won't even give you a psychoactive high.

I think it's good to wait until you're in your last 2-4 weeks of flowering remaining, but the closer the better.

Sometimes I'll clip a few even a couple days before harvest because I get impatient and want to smoke that dank bud as quickly as possible.

Another thing I've learned is that upper and lower buds will mature at pretty much the same rate. Sometimes you'll notice a little more maturation in the main colas that are getting the most intense and direct light, but the lowers will still frost up just as much and mature at a relatively even rate.

Maybe we could do a video and I'll check out those plants in real time to give you a better opinion tomorrow or the next day, but from what I remember you might want to let them mature for at least another week or so before plucking any.

Do you know how many weeks of flowering you have left in them? Are the plants in flowering all the same age from seed pop? Forgive my stoner memory if you already told me :D

Really glad you got the clips and I can't wait to see what you do with them! Super exciting stuff bro, thank you for stopping by :)

Thank you for all that info bro! as of right now, I have a little over 2 weeks (17 days) til they should be ready to harvest! and they have definitely started to frost pretty well! There were a few of the lowest nodes and bud sites that didn't really frost over, and we're pretty tiny, so I ended up cutting those ones off so the plant wouldn't waste any nutrients on those! - I was actually going to make a post about that on the next few days 🤣 so it'll be awesome to hear your opinion on that!

We could definitely plan that out bro! I would love to show you real time! We should try to start a group voice chat one day, we can all take turns walking each other through our process and setup 💚 that would be really cool :) I love seeing pictures, but seeing them "in-person" would be awesome 😎
