If you are growing under a sink, I would imagine you have, at an absolute max, not even three feet of growing space vertically. You need to start your post with "Once upon a time!" I, personally think this is one of the scruffier looking plants I have ever seen, barely worth the electricity.

None of what you say is logical and the plant is no where nearly into the good budding stage. Exactly what do you expect your harvest to be? A joint? Do you live in a home with closet space or do you live in a cardboard box? What on Earth would even begin to posess you to grow in such an area such as under your sink? Also, one more point---How do circulate your air in such a limited space? Actually, I think that the limited space is between your ears. I can't wait to hear your answer.

The more I read on this site, the more I question this number. Are you counting your time to harvest from when you put the plants under 12-12? Are you doing hydroponics? Sea of green? This I highly doubt also, since you are growing under a sink. I very methodically prune/shape my plants, every second or third node. I am kindof getting the feeling that there are some fibbers out there, trying to outdo the next person, as to how fast they can get a crop out. I would rather have my crop take longer so I can get the maximum potency/quantity/quality. I use all totally organic nutrients, that way I don't have to flush the chemicals out of my buds so they don't taste like Miracle-Gro. I plant in Pro-Mix and I never use an already open bag to plant new babies into. Any extra Pro-Mix, I use on my house or yard plants. I refuse to create any chance for contamination. It's cheaper, in the long run, to use a new four cubic yards of Pro-Mix than to try and use a bag of dirt that has been open for a couple of months, even though I store my dirt inside, in my extra bedroom. Once you have had a go-'round with contamination, you will realize I am right. It just takes too long for the whole growing process to cut corners to save a nickle or dime. I also find that by using organic nutrients, there is a much slighter chance of burning the plants. I also dilute everything to at least 1/3-1/4 of what the recommended amount is. Please, clue me in as to how you can turn a harvest out that quick!!! Once my plants start to bud, I figure roughly 60-65 days from that point. I don't harvest until the buds have connected between the nodes and become real firm. Why spend all that time (and love) if a person is too impatient to let the plants completely mature? I know that last couple of weeks is tough, but it is well worth it!! Bearsbuds
