Bare naked lady
Took off anything that doesn't have trichomes.
Plant has been lollipopped since first week of flower.
Buds are forming nicely, though they're not that big.
Terpenes are definitely there. Smells amazing. Lemony/minty smell.
Don't think I'll have to worry about potency with this bitch
I'm thinking if I can pull at least 2 grams a branch/bud site (45 approx. in all) I'll get a minimum of 3 oz. dry. I'm hoping this number will be higher, more like 3 grams a branch! That would be crazy.
I'm hoping now that I put the cfls aside and let the cobs loose that the buds will really take off.
A few more weeks now!

Nice job on the lollipop, she looks happy!
 
Dude she looks great. Don't trim anymore leafs until she's dry enough for the jar. So many small growers are in a hurry to dry and smoke. You gain way more flavor and aroma profile when you leave the leafs for the 3-7 day drying.
Also be careful on how you trim and train the next 4. Could end up over crowded.

Thanks man I appreciate it! Yeah, this is one of my "better" harvests, as I am still pretty new to growing. I wish I had known that about the leaves before I clipped them so much! Thanks for the info, I'll remember that next go around for sure. Yeah, I plan on (hopefully) getting 2 females out of the 4, I'll top and mainline them into baby nugbuckets, lol. Thanks again bro.:bigjoint:

It took me a couple grows and advice from a friend that moved Nor.Cal. to inform me. The plant devotes nutrients and moisture to those leafs as fuel tanks. Trimming them at first causes a lot of crops to turn out grassy or hay smelling. As the flowers dry the stems pull from the other nonessential parts, leafs first then stems. Good buzz from genetics grown but way less flavor and smell than you'd expect.

I successfully did 3 plants in my similar dresser once I got my cab, lights, and growing style/technique. 1 auto short Ryder, fem jack herer and fem orange cream. Got more yield from 3 in 2 gal pots vs 2 in 5 gal.

The shit you're telling me is making me sad bro. I just got through clipping the hell out of them last night, right after that, you said not to lol. I'm glad I'll know for next time, though. I have them hanging up in my old grow box with the in line running and lights off. 20170703_174704.jpg
Think I should turn the fan off? Not sure if itll dry them too fast.

Don't be down on yourself we all were newbs once. Mistakes made and learned from is how it all goes. IMO no 2 grows are the same. By that I mean you could set up a room exactly how a growers guild lays it out, bought with that in mind, and run into varying factors not discussed or calculated for. We learn and try different things the next time around.
I hope you saved your trimming for butter or hash/sift. Getting the most out of your harvest.

This next time around should be a lot better. Yes I did! It's sitting in the Ziploc in the bottom left of the dry box picture. Going to make some butter with it, all sugar leaves. Thanks again.

Damn buddy. You do good with improvised builds.

Here's my current grow space. 200w of 3500k Vero 29 gen7's. Nearly 3 sq foot of floor space. Looks a bit shabbier than yours. Especially the paint and cob frame.20170705_142018.jpg

Excellent job on the harvest by the way. She looked really happy.

Thanks bro, appreciate it. Naw yours looks fine man! I have some rustoleum paint thrown in there. The frame took some time, but yours is pretty much the same concept as mine. How hot do your heatsinks get while running them at 100w a piece?
Hopefully she smokes well! Thanks bro

Don't know about at full tilt. But, at half of the dimmers usable range. I can hold my hand on them without any discomfort.

Used a can of Dulux flat white to paint mine. I swear I got the dodgy batch though. The can kept sputtering and blowing gas. Rather than paint for parts of it.

I'll be swapping out that exhaust fan for something more effective... And quieter. That one vibrates worse than a BOB.

Oh okay, that's cool. I can do the same at halfway but they get pretty hot cranked all the way.
Lol, yea see I go with the old school thick ass paint in a bucket with a brush. Makes for a nice thick coat!
I'm sure it does. Is it a bathroom exhaust fan? I'm sure a small 4-6 inch duct booster would be fine for your box.

The mystery seeds have taken off pretty good. 3 hybrids that have been topped at the 3rd node and 1 indica that is stacking beautifully.
I also have 1 girl scout cookie clone that I've manifolded in a 2 gallon smart pot and a Double Dream (Blue DreamxDream star)clone in the solo cup soaking up some rays.

I got the design from ninja something on another forum.
12 feet of 3/4" aluminum angle cut into 12" segments
1/4" double sided tape
Flat black spray paint
Place a double-stacked piece of double sided tape on the ends of the angles
Press the next angle firmly onto the tabs you be created, and continue to stack the angles in this manner until you have a nice grill going on
Spray it matte black and it's ready to rock.
The aluminum foil tape is temporary until I feel like mounting it properly with brackets.20170716_201630.jpg 20170716_201658.jpg 20170717_100125.jpg 20170717_140947.jpg
Thanks for watching :blsmoke:
