Your 45 watt full spectrum, is that an LED?
35CD8F4D-A829-4244-AEC8-92A1740BE4CB.jpg So here the nug is, from Sunday night to today. Started out at 8.6 now at 3.06, She's crispy outside but the stem still has a bend. This nug however I messed up. I put it in front of a fan the first night, like right on top of it to try and dry faster and the bud now has hay smell :( the ones I have hanging the right way however from yesterday smell great just as bud should.. they are hanging on top of my grow structure it's 68 degrees and 45-55 humidity they really aren't in direct light just hanging above the lights about 1.5 ft away just haningn to the structure.

Yeah it is I got it off amazon tbh for like 25 bucks I think. It was the first light I got and just kept adding lights like one or two a week. For some reason I just didn't think I had enough light... I didn't want to under light her.
That's exactly what I did, same light from Amazon, then added more till I reached 400 watts. Lol The Grow Boss says, 400 watts gets you a half pound dry. ;)

Sooo, that harvest, wasn't planning on it being like a whole day..... Without the breaks included it took about 5-6 hours for the whole plant...that being said it was great loved lookin at the buds smellin em, and seein how big they got haha. No clue what the weight is but it took a like a lot for me at least haha..View attachment 4010032View attachment 4010033View attachment 4010034
Oh yeah! That's what I'm talking about. Those are some nice bud's. My Bubba is coming along but as you know my first grow was awful, my plants had everything go wrong down to my dogs killing two plants. My Bubba K is the only survivor lol and her growth was stunted but what is budding is looking good.
Because of my issues n the length of growing, I turned an old entertainment center into two grow cabinets now I've got four plants growing at different stages n they seem to be coming along. My latest plant is in a coffee can Hempy bucket, she's going on five weeks old n I'm liking her growth. I love the Hempy, it's impossible to over water it. Lol

The way your bud's stacked was awesome.
Your grow doesn't look bad at all, I like your drain hahah. But for a first grow it is what it is.... yeah the nugs stacked really well, dense. I got them hangin as you saw at around 66-70 degrees and trying to keep t between 50-60 humidity. It's been hard with the storm that came through lots of rain.. then don't know if you an see it but I have a brown bag under the hangin stuff with about an oz more of small snugs that got chopped off accidentally or just small.

Just keep the fans going with some fresh air. They're going to take probably 5-7 days but you should be ok. Keep those girls in the dark.

Damn bro. My fault thought u were talking about drying your buds whem harvesting. Lol. In flower. 40rh to 50 is optimal. Mine gets as low as 35 to 50 rh for flower. 60 is a lil too high for flower but 70%rh will get ya mold
