In case you ever wondered what a cartel grow looks like, there it is. Run for your life if you ever come across one, but take the dog!
 
I think two of the strains are dry enough to start curing

I also re-wired the fans on the Space Buckets for future spacers so it can rise several feet without disconnecting.

Looks good! If they've been sitting for a week after cutting them, I think you're pretty well cured. Bend the stems and see if they break, or if they just kink and bend.
 
They won't ever break like a pencil. I've found some sticks that were a year old that still don't crack like a typical twig. Just looking for a tiny bit of crunch when they bend, but they'll still be together in one piece.
 
It's a pro area where I'm no good. I don't have the weed palate to tell when they're fully done and would just smoke it.
 
try bending one of the buds downward off the stem. If it just bends down against the stem, it's not there. If it snaps it is.

It's worse to cure early than to cure late. In other words, if in doubt, let it keep drying.

How is the plant?
 
It's good. I cut out a bunch of the old pre-buds and then supercropped a bunch of it and when it recovers in 2-3 days I'll switch to flower. Also I tied down the main stems as best I could..

I've added only water + seaweed extract + dry compost PH balanced to 6.5. I might some some bloom at 25% when it switches.

I'm only going to do 1 plant at a time from now on in my tent.

I'm also as previously noted running 2 Space Buckets with White Widow Autoflower and Lemon Kush OG Autoflower. I need to make about 6 more spacers and add back the LED strips once they get bigger but so far so good doing half nutrients water when they're dry to 2 knuckles.

Week 2 for Widow and 3 for Kush

So dry in SF...the Humidifier keeps it at 50-60

Dude, lay off the nutes on the plant in soil. It doesn't need them. Also, I'd consider giving it a few more days to transition from sun to grow lights.
 
That's cool. But again, that is literally the best soil money can but. And I put an additional load of seaweed extract, bonemeal, and bat guano down deep for when it needs it. It takes time for the plant to break down the fertilizer, so it should be good for a long time. I would suggest giving it straight water for a while, then maybe some bloom about halfway through the flowering cycle.

If you add anything, go with some compost tea or worm juice.
 
Super cool! I've been working on an indoor setup for a couple months now, getting pretty close to flipping the switch. No LED though, using CMH. I'd like to go with COB LED, but they're just too much money right now.
 
Hey guys, I've decided to tear up the last two plants I have in my yard. I'm quitting the weed, it's a problem for me. I'll probably dig them up tonight or this weekend and put them in big pots until they recover. Anyone interested? I'd love some cash for them. They are about three feet tall, nice and bushy, and ridiculously healthy. Sour Diesel. Trunks are about an inch in diameter. These will make a great backyard plant, or you could use them for clones, etc.
 
Final tally, about 2 oz

Pretty sad for 4 plants but once again they were pretty messed up and it was my first grow.

Plus some trim for bubble hash:
