Default Nirvana's Blue Mystic Harvest (cfl, soil)
Here is the 1st wave of my Nirvana Blue Mystic harvest.

Background:
- 1 feminized Nirvana BM seed was germed and then planted 6-1-09
- plant was vegged for approx. 13 weeks and 2 clones were taken
- the mother plant was LST'd throughout the grow (dental floss and duct tape)
- I used CFL bulbs for both veg and flower (I live in a fire-trap)
- vegged under 24hr lighting after the 2nd week
- The plant was in 12/12 for 73 days (not including initial 24 hours of darkness between veg and flower)
- Plant was placed in the dark for 72 hours prior to being cut down
- the plant was flushed for 13 days prior to harvest (including the 72 hours in the dark)
- molasses (1-1.5 tbls per gallon h2o) was used during the last 6 weeks of flowering

*if I left anything out, please go ahead and ask, I'm just going off the cuff right now...

The mother plant was the first to be ready, the second clone was chopped yesterday (day 75) and the 3rd plant is still under the lights and has yet to show an amber trichs.

The mother plant was around 50/50 (and 70/30 in some spots) cloudy/amber in regards to trichome color.

**the last picture is of the largest 2 branches, after 72 hours hanging to dry they totaled 1.13oz but still have some time left before they go into jars.**

***all these pictures are of the BM mother plant only, I'll post the BM clone #1 next

Default BM Clone #1
This plant was cloned from the plant shown in the previous post midway through the mother plant's veg.

Background:
- lights, medium, etc same as the mother plant
- plant was topped at 2 weeks into veg and was vegged for a total of 4 weeks (+5 days to root in 18/6 after it was cut from mother)
- 12/12 for 72 days and then it was pulled and put in the dark for 72hr and then chopped (at day 75)
- flushed for 12 days (including 72 hour dark period) prior to harvest
- molasses used for the last 6 weeks of flower
- 3 days prior to 72 hour dark period, thumb-tacks were placed through each branch about an inch below the last node on the branch (this allegedly increases resin production immediately preceding harvest)
- trichomes are about 70/30 cloudy/amber throughout

Looks amazing, just goes to show that CFL's are great if HPS or another lighting system is not an option.

Check out my CFL grow as well in my sig, kinda similar looking to your plants. +rep

Peace

Also, are you only using molasses? I love these cheap grows that turn out great.

Haha you got my secret, I was going to write a longer post about the whole grow, but I basically did a wal-mart only grow. My overhead was $250 for the whole grow (I don't worry about electric b/c there were things that hid my usage from the landlords that coincided well with my op).

I don't want to reveal any more, suffice to say I was within my budget and actually expanded it b/c of some great circumstances.

Your grow sounds about 90% the same as mine (I checked out your link). Minimalist with a lot of care and attention to maximize the plants.
