Well, it's been like 10 days since my last update, so I suppose it is time. I took a couple of pics tonight right before lights on; and a couple of them came out fairly well. I am five weeks and two days into flower. Arjan says to go about 50 days on Great White Shark; so I will be having my first harvest in about 2 weeks. The Sativa I expect to take as many as six more weeks; that girl is just getting started.

And a little long shot:

I gave the GWS girls their last feeding today. It was a hefty dose of Tiger Bloom, guano tea, and only the left one received molasses as well. I am going to leech for the next two weeks, and then I will be chopping the two girls down. I am pretty amazed at the swelling that has happened over the last few days. I hope to God it continues, as I am a little bit worried about yield. Everyone says that the buds pack on a lot of weight in the last two weeks, though, so I'll have to just wait and see. And, by the way, the buds are rock hard. Thank you for having a look, and I hope the rest of you are having as much fun with your grow as I am.

Day 43 of Flower,

I plan on harvesting the GWS in 7 days. The plants are starting to look like they are almost done. I gave them nutes for the last time two nights ago, and actually gave them all a little nute burn. Oh, well. These are a couple of close-ups of buds, and a nice long shot. From now on, I am giving them plain ph'ed water, and trying to leech out all the nutes. Harvest is so close I can almost taste it!

Thank you. I am ScrOGing 3 plants. I had a bagseed plant that grew for a little over a month while I waited for a very delayed seed order. I definitely made a big sacrafice on yield by saving the big one, and I really didn't grow the GWS out as much as I could have. If you look back in the journal, you can see that I was barely at the screen when I flipped, and they are sitting on booke. Thanks for stopping in.

damn bro its lookin good. but you should have been patient like me and trained your plant. but for your first grow, and scrogging, props to your bro, your ganna have a booooomb harvest, but you know this. anyways the great white shark is looking great. im ganna try out arjans haze #3 next time. i think the "Midget Sativa" will be a perfect canidate for a scrog. i love how the screen looks with juicy spears pokin out the top. ive been imagineing what mine will look like soon. thinking if i fell on it, it would impale me with a goatload of colas lol.

awwwww, billybob, it is a pleasure to have a fellow ScrOGer in here. It wasn't impatience that made me flip the timer; it was to save the other plant. I had a the little Sativa 4 weeks into veg when I sprouted the Great White Sharks. Also, my girlfriend would have left me if I had killed the big Sativa. She had fallen in love with it. So, basically, I had to flower quite a bit early to avoid having the big bitch overgrow my whole house, as she was becoming a monster. I knew I was making mistakes on this grow as I made them. Next grow (which will be starting in a couple weeks), I will do it right, even if it is on a small scale. Thanks for checking me out.

The only mistake I made was not giving the GWS enough time to really spread their wings. For odor control I use an inline carbon filter that is hooked up to the exhaust of the room. It all looks a little ghetto, but works pretty well.

Next grow, I am not sure yet. I want to do something from Greenhouse again, but I might just end up with GWS again for a second time. I don't think I have time for any long-flowering hazes before I move this summer; and that's really what I want to grow next time. Also, I have gotten to know the strain pretty well, so next time I will have the confidence to properly nute them and make them really shine.

Oh, and my girlfriend and I have been together for 3 and a half years. We have been living together for almost 3. I did a few months' research on growing before I even brought it up. When she saw how serious I was, she started to give in. When I reminded her that we spent about $400 a month on weed, she gave in completely.

I'll try to get some pics of the room tonight, but I do have a little offering.

I cut down one bud last night, because it looked to be done. The rest of them are not quite there yet, but this one seemed much further along. I am currently drying (hanging) it, and then am going to cure it. This was not a "quick fix" or a "taste". I still have 3 weeks or so before I touch it. It was probably the smallest bud on the left GWS (molasses plant). Here it is:

Last night when I cut it, before I trimmed it.

My camera ran out of batteries, so I couldn't take a trimmed pic until today. I used a Wii remote for size comparison. Like I said, it's a small bud:

And here is a close-up, so you can see how sticky it is:

I would say that this bud will weigh about 3g dried. Maybe a little bit more. This was one of the smallest buds on the screen, and I have quite a few others that are 2-3 times the size. As I have 22 more colas on the GWS, I hope to get 4 oz off the two plants combined. I hope to get an additional 2 off of the Sativa. Thanks for looking, and I will try to do a lot of updating tonight!

P.S. Thank you for the kind words, ventricle. The GWS didn't come out as white as I thought it would, but it still looks like some fine herb.

P.P.S. I always thought people were crazy when they said that their buds smelled like cat piss. This bud that I harvested does, but in the most beautiful way!
