Typical big bud, huge buds & a lot of bud sites but not a lot of resin production. What's the smell like? Lookin good, I'm interested to get a potency report on this stuff when it's done.

Smell isn't to strong right now, sometimes it smells like fresh cut wet grass ;) When they are dry it smells good. If all goes well looking around 6 more weeks..

Hey man, when they were in the first couple weeks of their lives how much did you water them? I have a set-up similar and havent really figured how much water i should give em?

if your having problems with mites kepe using the insecticidal soap and topdress your plants with an inch or so of perlite. this helps to keep the larvae from surfacing but keep using the soap

Thats a good question, beacuse this actually changed.. During vegging every 3 days was perfect, a full three days.(using 1 gallon pots this will not refelct all, size of pots will make a difference) example if I fed on Monday at say 7:00am I would not water till thursday at this time so call it the next...4th day I guess, but 3 full days. Once they where introduced into flowering 2 weeks in I had to water ever 2 days, and current..

I would reccomend to you a meter to measure the moisture but DO Not trust this 100% as I did? I had one of my girls fall over due to Underwatering...which I thought at the time was to much watering..as the meter should to be ok but the pot's where very lite..Just pay attention to what there need, you will learn and see from there leaves, if there dropping and it has been a couple days since you watered then it's time.. Good Luck...

Hey man in all seriousness if you can possibly do it transplant into a 3 or 5 gallon pot/bucket with holes drilled in it. You'll get exponentially more yields. Yes I said exponentially & spelled it correctly after 4 doobies today. :joint::hump:

I hear ya...;) Yeah I will have them in bigger pots next grow but just wanted to see how it went with one gallons and room to work with....I have a few auto's for next time so I don't think they get to big.
