Your lucky. We had snow up till may. When i pulled them down noticed one had mites starting. I had a massive slug problem this year in my garden and am constantly fighting something as we live across from fish creek park and bow river in calgary.
Its been a challenge for sure because every year its different. And that damn city light !
Ive got some modifications coming for my garden to cover it officially and not temporarily. I hope to use that to my advantage next year. Love seeing the plants in Ontario grow they definitely love your weather

Day 122:
I’ve chopped about 1oz (dried) of stems (9) that needed to be removed ASAP due to powdery Mildew. When this grow is complete, I will summarize my experience with PM, HST, Scrogging, Organic Grow etc to better help the next person!
2-3 more weeks for White Widow (she is so healthy, lots of white pistols. The white residue on both plants is dried 2% milk used in the Powdery Mildew stoppage. This has been a nightmare!
1-2 weeks for ChemDawg, unless PM sparks up again. Stinks like DIESEL 
Many lessons learned - the most important: choosing the right genetics. Each plant behaved differently from training to feeding to transition into flower. ChemDawg is prone to mold / PM, and she followed exactly as promised! White Widow is strong, balanced, and has been resistant to PM (almost).
With PM at high risk, I decided to do a rolling harvest (ChemDawg) to prevent further spread and save the crop.
The bud in my hand is the largest of the smallest bud’s from the plant. For reference, I’m 6’2 and wear XL gloves.
Despite chopping 9 stems over 3 days; it never once shocked the plant. Only damage is a snapped main stem from excessive winds last week, unrelated to the early removal.
Grobo is drying the small stuff (it will be tough to fit ONE of White Widows largest stems in the Grobo. The balance of drying will be done in my brand new WeDryer XL

Good to see. Heard snow / etc was headed your way so figured you might be finishing up.

Day 124:
7-10 more days of flushing, and they are near ready for chopping. The milk/water spray I can confirm: worked! Anyone fighting powdery mildew, it’s best to practice preventative measures first, but if all fails this is a sure safe path to saving your harvest!

Day 133:
FINISHED! 18 hours, 2 plants: lotta weed.
I scored the buds on a scale for trimming purposes:
A - Large Cola
B - Medium Cola
C - Small Cola / Buds
D - Larf / Difficult Trim (immediately frozen)
Weights - D GRADE - Frozen
318g — Chem Dawg (frozen for bubble hash)
155g — White Widow (frozen for bubble hash)
Weight - A,B, C GRADE - Hang Dry
___ g — Chem Dawg
___ g — White Widow
Any honest guesses on total dry weight in the Grobo?
These buds are rock solid 
keep in mind, I’ve early harvested 1.5oz of dry cannabis due to an early PM issue.
What a journey, thank you for letting me share!

SEMI-FINAL WEIGH-IN DAY
7 Days inside Grobo at 71F / 50% RH
-BUD LEGEND-
A - Large
B - Medium
C - Small
D - Larf / difficult to trim (immediately frozen)
D GRADE - Frozen
318g / 11.3oz — Chem Dawg
165g / 5.9oz — White Widow
TOTAL FROZEN BUD WEIGHT: 17.2oz (1.2lbs)
All frozen bud to be processed for Bubble Hash
A,B,C GRADE - 7 Day Hang Dry
103g / 3.6oz — Chem Dawg
111g / 3.96oz — White Widow
TOTAL DRY BUD WEIGHT: 7.75oz (.48lbs)
Overall, I’m pretty happy with the outcome considering the conditions (Poor sunlight, low air movement, powdery mildew). I’ll cure in jars (separated by bud quality and strain) for the next 30 days
Things I will change for next grow:
- Airpots (Soft pot)
- Re-designed enclosure for forced darkness
- Redesigned Scrog (fixed to pot)
- Second Layer Scrog
- improved Powdery Mildew Prevention
- Begin grow from seed
- Mainline LOW (possible from seed)
- Limit Pre-Flowering pruning to 3x only (Transition, Day 20, and Day 40)
- More root stimulation (was disappointed with my roots in a 15G pot)
- Silica (stems falling over with heavy buds)
- Boogie Brix Compost Tea
- Choose generics suited for this climate
- Go bigger

nice grow bro. Really happy to see those results for you.
Damn Ontario heat! If Calgary didn’t get flipping snow every month of the damn year.
Light outside at night time will still be my problem next year. Might just have to see how these two tent grows go now.
Your one jar is kind of full, from what I’ve read you shouldn’t fill more than 75% of the bottle. My fix to that was get a bigger bottle which i’m using now.

Thanks Todd, appreciated all your feedback on this grow.
Good catch on the jar: I am replacing the large jar for 2-3 smaller jars to keep that 75% capacity limit.

Burping these everyday, the scent is becoming more and more pronounced. Each jar now has its own hygrometer and two way humidity packs since Friday, holding at 59%RH.
The humidity packs and hygrometer are an amazon special, great deal too:
I decided to test some bud, and it’s incredibly potent; both strains. ChemDawg is cheerful with lots of energy and curiosity, while White Widow puts your muscle at ease, beginning in the legs, followed by a pleasant sleepiness. The smoke is smooth and has great flavor. I’m curious how it will age?
