I'm missing something... 72 days is way more than seven weeks, what is it, that Im not getting? Im about to finish the sixth week of veg. I'm in the same situation as you with my space, but since the footprint of the SGS is pretty much the same, I find it to be okay.
About the plant, it's a seed from a friend, the female had received some pollen from a hermie, and I was just curious about the outcome. Really sorry about that decision right now, but it's a bit late to cry about it, or perhaps a little too early. LOOOL :)
Really hope it's a she. Next to her is a feminized LSD, which I'm mainlining and a Bubba Kush from Humboldt seeds, which I popped some later than the other two. All in all, pretty unorganized. So Ill just learn as much as possible and be more focused on yield and making the best use of my space on the next grow instead of having no other ambition than learning. Next grow will be white widow and amnesia lemon from Barney's farm. Luckily, they are all feminized. Oh, and my geopots are on the way, hope they get here before the final transplant. It's sad that youre not on a new journal, I really enjoyed following your grow.

Yay, can't believe I had over a 1000 posts on here. That's pretty cool.

It's so much more enjoyable when you have a group of peeps to follow along and comment on your grow. Keeps it fun and makes you accountable.

Those are some great strains and equipment. The only thing holding you back is Mother Nature. She can be a real bitch sometimes. Just try to keep them green and post your pics and questions to us on this thread... https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/695732-other-side-fence-where-grass.html lot a good people on there to help you out if you get into trouble or just want to show off your girls.

I wouldn't put too much pressure on yourself. It's a learning process Ben and each grow adds to your confidence level and skills. Every time we drop some beans in the dirt, it's an opportunity to learn.

You're right it's 10 weeks. But I don't include the 2-3 week germination and seedling phase in my vegetative period. I had a slower than usual seedling phase because of poor drainage on my solo cups. Lost a week getting them nursed back to health.

I track everything on a calendar and when it comes to flowering, I track the flip (12/12 photo period), the "flowering" (when the plant first showed signs of flowers), the breeder's date, and the overall day count. This helps when speaking with other growers about issues or describing my current plant maturity.

Keep me posted on your grow and good luck.

Then it makes sense. I've probably lost about a week as well due to some pots being too small for healthy roots grow. They are now in 2gals and 1gal. One is pretty big, some 40-45 cms about now. Ill probably post a photo in a week or so. Hopefully, some of you would be able to tell me it's gender by then :)! The LSD has taken really well to mainlining, and I think it's going to be the best plant. Im giving them some 15-15-15 every now and then when I water, which is every four days. I havent made a detailed schedule, but Im not that much of a smoker, so I still count entirely on my memory.

Good deal. Slipon just harvested his LSD. Here is his thread...https://www.rollitup.org/led-other-lighting/644468-fist-led-grow.html. It's an excellent strain that I'm excited to try really soon. That's a good feed ratio. I like it even like that to keep the plants green to harvest. I remember when I had a memory, no wait, what were we talking about?

Ever take a hit and have your legs tingle within a few seconds? That's best way to describe what happened to me last night testing the Blue OG. Great fruity flavors and lingering spiciness. Highest THC content I've smoked to date. Three vape hits to catatonic bliss.

Don't have any plants to show today. How about a shot of my tasting shelf, mmm good.

Hi Ben, good to see you man. I did a 7 week veg from 12/12 on this last grow. My day count from germination was 72 days before flipping 12/12.

Longer veg periods will sometimes show gender before flowering, mine did. You can drop a plant into 12/12 to induce flowering and sex the plant and then return it back to veg photo period. This stresses the plant and will add to your day counts. But if you have to know, it will work. Personally, I use only feminized seed because of my limited floor space, can't waste it on males. Lucked out with a bag seed on this last grow and had a heavy producing fem.

I did a test smoke on the white lavender @ a month cure last night. Killer resin on this strain and harvested just right with a strong head high that doesn't drop me on the floor. Picking up ripe fruit aromas and flavors and a spiciness on the tongue. This is a keeper and recommended.

G13 Labs White Lavender Genetics: White Widow x Lavender


I will get more smoke reports later as I get more of the jars cracked back open. Catch ya later and good luck with female, hopefully.
Has she started packin on any resin yet?....geez

Have you thought about the LED globes Vega? You already have all the necessary accessories, and they run much cooler... still point source lighting... Think they're saying a 10 pack for 80?

Yeah bro I had the same heat problems using cfls early on in my grow. For early vegging I had no choice but to use 3x100w cfl bulbs. Not a lot of light by any stretch of the imagination. Then after two weeks I was counting down the days till my cooltube arrived . The heat coming off the cfls was getting so much that the air anywhere close to the bulbs was drying out. I have never gotten headaches before with such dry air in my place. That along with dry tired eyes and tickly throat. Almost like an allergy in many ways. Ever since then I can't for the life of me imagine what a full grow would be like using cfls and cfls only. The heat and air dryness must be unbearable. Maybe it is just me and others don't seem to mind it too much. Problem seemed to lie in the fact that cfls seemed to radiate so much heat and dry out the air by a larger factor than other light types. I live in an area of California by the coast and nicely humid most of the time. The cfls made the whole place seem like the desert in Arizona .
