That's awesome dude. Need help consuming that stuff?!

I am hoping for 2 OZ per plant. Although I have no way of eye balling it up and telling on my first grow. My gut says my max is 2...probably less.

I was thinking 2oz/plant, but I am very pleasantly surprised! Can't wait to see a whole box of jars filled up!

Congratulations - look awesome. No reason you wouldn't get 300g at least from the 600w. My aim is to get 1 ounce per month of grow/drying time. Think I'll get more than that with my 400w.
Btw I recall reading somewhere that plants lose 75% of their wet weight in the drying/curing process. Don't know if it's true or not.

I ended up with 25.42% of the weight after drying. So the 25% is a great rounding number. And the other 2 plants will be pushing probably close to 5 oz./plant. The colas are really swelling!

That's not a rumor is definitely true

Update: Day 65 flower

Still doing well. Trichs on the bottom half of the partially harvested girl are around 85% cloudy. The skunky one looks to have a couple more weeks, and the haze one around 3 weeks. Colas are really swelling nicely. image.jpg

Update: Day 69 flower

Chopped the bottom half of the first girl. I should do very well with what will be going into jars and to the freezer hash bag. I can't wait to turn all that popcorn bud and sugar leaves into some hash!

There's lots of room now in the tent. The one in the left in the pic is starting to put on the weight and sag a little. A few more weeks, and what looks like will be over a box of Balls, and my first grow will be finished up. image.jpgimage.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

Here's mine 35 days since 12/12.

Actually I think the 3 plants are quite different phenotypes. The back R plant is maturing fastest. Purple flowers !! L plant stretched the most with the thinnest leaves. The fan leaves of both of these plants are yellowing and dropping. (Not N deficient since I have been feeding them). Seems to be the same as Figgy was experiencing in post #119. The front R plant is much shorter and bushier with wider leaves and thicker colas. She hasn't got any yellow leaves yet.

All 3 of mine are different phenos. 1: quick growth, mostly fruity smell, dark green with some deep dark purple in the buds, thinner bud structure, fan leaves all yellowed and died off through flower, and very frosty. 2: Slower growth, medium green color with some red/purple to buds, skunky smell, thick colas, all fan leaves yellowed and died off through flower, very frosty. 3: slowest growth, very light/lime green buds, fuel/pine smell, thick colas, almost all fan leaves died off but she has kept her overall green color the longest, and very frosty.

Harvesting the lower half of the first girl ended up giving me just over another 2 oz. Makes the total for plant one right around 4 oz. in jars and around 1 oz. popcorn bud for hash.

I'm waiting for a smoke report. Can't wait.
Still smokes like garbage. Very hard on the throat from the first hit, and tastes very poor. High is a excellent daytime/get shit done head high. Another 2.5 weeks curing and this "report" will have changed. I'll keep ya posted on each plant individually as they are harvested and cured.

So the other two girls are taking their sweet time. The skunky one is now tarting to have a sweet smell come on to her, and the fuel/pine smelling one has the best lemon cleaner smell I've ever smelled before! Trichs are mostly cloudy with very few clear and barely any amber on the skunk one. Lemony one is still about 50/50 clear/cloudy. I'm guessing these two have very heavily influenced haze genetics showing with this 12+ weeks of flowering. I'll post some pics tonight.

So far the first plant has been smoking very nicely. After curing for a month the bud hits very smooth, and has a sweet taste. I feel like she's just a normal sativa with a good head high and no couch lock. Overall I'm pleased how she came out. I'm hoping the lemon cleaner pheno really smokes well. The smell is just waaaaay too nice!

BL lime is my cheap summer beer. Been in the fridge for a while now though. I'm a dark beer guy. Porters and stouts keep me happy.

Just cut off 2 small buds and it looks like the trichs are ready on the sweet skunk one. She'll be coming down tonight or tomorrow as long as those buds smoke well tonight after work!

Been growing HWFP for months. Started about the same time as you. My experience was that it seemed like it took forever to grow. First 4 or so weeks we were very hesitant on this strain. Getting some nice trichs in flowering stage now and everything is starting to smell great, and grow faster. Had to be very patient with this strain IMO, but it appears be getting there. I switched from hydro to soil a few weeks in. Great reference pics on this page

These last 2 girls are taking forever! I believe the first one already chopped was close to what Heavyweight expected these genetics to do. The haze though is really dragging these out.
