yea ive stared at them for a while tryin to figure out ballpark range of weight.
theres 7 main colas, 2 out of the 7 are the biggest, then theres the 5 secondary colas and alot of little nugz, cant be seen in that pic.
so im hoping the 2 bigger colas weigh in around 6-9 grams each, then the other 5 smaller colas weighing 4-6 each. so thats 32-48 grams.
the small nuggets i have all over the plant seem like they would weigh at least half of the coalas, so say 16-24 grams extra! so then that would be
32+16=48 48+24=72 so we'll see if im right when i finally weigh in ....48-72 grams is what i figured and i know theres no way im gettin 72 so im saying probably somewhere right around 50 grams, which would be fine with me. cant wait man

Hey Dave,
You are like the authority in AGing weed!!! Damn those babies of yours look good My original grow died due to overfeeding, I think, and I just started another grow. Just a word on sprouting seeds. It's very simple, put the seeds into the AG, put in beginning nutes and they should be sprouting in a few days. My second grow I started yesterday morning and I have 2 sprouted seeds already out of 8 I put in. Since I'm growing seeds I got in a bag recently I figured I'll put 2 in each cup and keep the one that sprouts first.
This time I will make sure I use distilled water and less nutes then the last time
Still unsure should I use foxfarm nutes I bought or to stick to AG nutes for tomatos.
Kudos to you Dave, and I hope for at least a similar grow to yours

hey thanks lastian, yea the only reason i used the ag nutes is because i didnt have the funds for a nice ph tester and buying all the nutes needed. so i just spent money on distilled water and used the ag nutes, they self adjust ph so it isnt a worry. good luck man, dont let those sprouts reach for light, get that light low man.
goodluck

Just a word for all those newbees (as if I wasn't one) but I got 4 sprouts in 4 pods. Out of original 8, 4 have sprouted within 2 days from planting in AG new growth nutes. I am planning on keeping them in the same water for two weeks or at least until they are stable enough to start changing water. At the point I'm planning on following Dave's prescription and use up those AG nutes.
Thanks Dave for all the good work and great suggestion

yea thanks lastian.... i always get real nubes pm'in me askin shit about the ag with out readin the post..so then i try to help them out but ive been doin this grow for 4-5 months so i dont remember much from early growth so i end up tellin the pm'ers to read my thread. so what i was tryin to say was thanks for readin it and not tryin to get the answers the easy way..

check out this dirt set-up my buddy and i did at his house.. we started it about the same time i started mine,using two and a half rubbermaid tubs fully covered in mylar, the top tub that you dont see in the pics has the exact same lighting setup as mine, then we have an intake and a charcoal scrubber hooked up to the exhaust. very stealthy setup, and hes gonna pull about a quarter pound off it, we picked the top colas you see in the pics and let the smaller bottom buds go longer. theres 6 plants total, we just picked and trimmed these tonight, fun shit... these plants are c-99,il have a weight for ya when there dried out and we harvest the other buds..

now that's cool. can we get some more details on that setup ..like the dimensions of the tubs and time veged and flowered and stuff. i've REALLY been wanting to get some c99. and bogglegum too, but i can't find those anywhere. i remember a friend had this grape-ish smelling kind of bud a long time ago and said it was boggle something..

anyways...very nice.

yea man i can get you some info, but i have no clue how big the tubs are. we just went to wally and picked the size that would fit 6 plants. im goin back over to his house tomorow and i can check out what size that is. but like i said we used the same fixture that im using, i have pics of it in this thread. and we bolted it to the top tub. i dont know where he got the c-99, well were the seeds were bought from becuase we got these clones from my buddy who gave me mine. and he use to grow in a big shed, his last grow was a 4,000 watter his biggest yet and he overheated the radioshack timer and burned the shed to the ground with about 30 plants that were 2 weeks from being done, but luckily we got a few c-99 and (sugar blossom from mine) and gave those to another buddy who has a clone chamber and cloned our plants so were gonna start veggin 6 c-99's and 6 sugar blossoms at the beginning of feburary and there goin outside in april, so we'll see how these strands do outside and with about 9 months of grow time, but yea man get back to me with any other questions. peace

Damn bro, your boy has some good shit right there. His plants look healthier than yours, plus they look more dense. I guess dirt is the way to go afterall... Reminds me of a quote i saw on someones thread the other day "Plants in hydro are like breast implants...they look good until you get your hands on them."
