4 Colas from a half liter Coffee Mug
85 days from germ. (12 weeks and 1 day)
I went a little too overboard on my tough love, and eventually too much weight cracked one side of the mainline open overnight. Eventually it ended up not interfering too much with growth, but I imagine she would rather have been kept intact haha
4 DIY COB LEDs. Vero on CPU coolers.
1 50x50x150cm tent. Simple, same room air extraction, no carbon filters.
Total power drain at wall, all expenses summed, around 270W.
Temp max. 35ºC
Temp min. 24ºC
Now we wait for final weighting!
Stay tuned.

How on earth did I miss this?sad update..
I've cried this afternoon like I haven't cried since I was a kid.
I'm going through a separation, and I'm going to a new house.. A smaller place, with no possibility of growing...
Today I had to kill off my precious seedlings..
I've been learning to grow some pretty nice weed grow after grow, and this time had a magical feel about it. It has been spoiled...
I've snapped out of it, and I know that in my near future I'll find a way to make it all work out. But damn...
I hadn't felt so many deep crushing emotions so fast.. Leaving your partner, and destroying your precious little early crop was just numbing.
Enjoy your crops guys, because I recognise the love, the dedication, the time we put into our loved little plants is a powerful force in our lives, and in the lives of others...
I just lost my favourite zen place, and it hurt like a motherfuckingbitch.
Fat tears. Real rolling tears.
And I can't wait to sow some new beans real soon...
Expect me.
Well, shit Bro, I will now catch up and then will see how it lies.
I sure hope that you are on a new thread already!
It does happen. It will make you stronger.
JD
P.S. OK, you are on track. :0) I will have to slow down and read some. lol

JD!! It's been too long!
I've been laying low on the threads and growing in general. Life sometimes throws you some curveballs.
Anyway I'm up and back at it, I decided to keep track of this little test grow just to post some updates on this main thread. I've missed this too much.
I was afraid you lot had forgotten about me! hahaha
Sorry for the photo dump, but I was saving up the pics just to make sure I'd have a postable worthy outcome hahaha
Flowers are up and drying right now, can't wait to try a test piece. Perhaps later today if I can't stop myself!
Welcome back to the Haven everyone, and stay tuned for more
allthebest

@Jad3 and @Javadog .... two of my favorite people. 
Good to see you both again.
I didn't know you were still growing Jad3. I am still at it as well. I got a horribly late start this year, but the girls still turned out ok. Smell is amazing... if the breeze is right maybe you can smell them there, lol. I'm jealous of the 12 weeks from germination. I'm at around week 21 from germination and think I have about 4 weeks left. I didn't have to spend any money on them though, so that's good. Recycled soil, left over nutrients, and lots of sun does wonders. I wish I would have started them earlier though, and taken better care of them. Oh well. They should last me until next years harvest, so that's what matters I guess. Bigger is not always better.
I'm glad the little tent worked for you as always. And just let me know if you'd like a seed or two.

I had to test out if I still could grow anything, so I went with the original bonsai theme I guess hahaha
Just got the dry weight measured at a whooping 27g
"bigger is not always better"
But by now I'm beating myself over WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST TRANSPLANT IT INTO A 10L POT AND GOT 7x MORE YIELD?!?! 
Anyway, it was a successful test, and the flower is tasty, with a great zenned out, chill peaceful high. (great for munchies and snoozes).
I also did the grow with all left over stuff. I had everything stowed away in a closet, plugged everything up in an afternoon. Ventilation was a simple extraction fan blowing hot air from the tent directly into my room. Let's just say that by the end of it I was waking up to some nice sweet DANKNESS xD
I had this great seed selection, even some great ones you left me. (Deep Blue, Jack The Ripper, PK...)
But they've been put away so long in a drawer (3 yearsss???) that my germ rate for all my tries was 0%
eventually this WhiteWidow x BlueBerry shot up, and I decided to grow it out to see if I was contemplated with a nice girl by the end of it all.
So, not only do I have to go visit you for good ol' time sakes, but I also would love "a seed or two"!
Gotta get a nice fresh selection for the new seasons, I guess I'm back at it!
Couldn't get to germinate my "signature" Cinderella99 or the much anticipated Moby Dick. Sucked so bad.
Stay tuned

Your pretty much looking at it i pulled it right on the nose of 60 days, (was aseed given to me from a non growing friend) all i was told was it was a lemon autoflower. I liked how it started flowering at 21 days so i bred it to my big male and i think that cut down my nug size alot. Smells of grapefruit and sweet and sour sauce lol. I would have left it a bit longer but it was going rootbound and yellowing more earlier than i would have liked. I think itll still pull atleast an ounce tho.

Love it, have you smoke tested it?
Never did a full auto grow. Had a few beans around but I think they became unviable 3 years later... =/
I did a test a long time ago but ended up with like a single 1g bud micro-Tree. it's sad and hilarious at the same time. I'll look for the old thread...
Here it is

Nice to hear from you Jig-Bro. I look forward to your return. We will go back to Fidels.

- NEW GROW ALERT -
so, a little backstory... This summer I went on summer vacation to the African island country of São Tomé with my girlfriend.
Upon arrival I cornered this tour guide guy and asked him straight to his face, where can we get some nice bud around here? haha (he looked horrified by my direct aproach)
Next day I had a crumpled up piece of paper with some nice buds in it (great chill and dreamy smoke) with QUITE A BIT of alright looking SEEDS!!
Long story short, as soon as I got back I sowed some of the best looking seeds from the S. Tomé landrace and nothing happened. Forgot about it. A few days later I stumbled uppon my germination container and there was this little guys poking it's head!
So, the only one that survived was this one, and now I'm afraid it's going to be a male, but let's see...
I say this because it's growing VIGOROUSLY and males are known for growing out faster than females... let's wait and check on it....
Going to grow it out nice and slow and big. Veg it out for a while and mainline it to 8 full looking branches.
PLEASE CROSS YOUR FINGERS FOR GIRL POWER!!!
So, the first topping was done early on, as soon as I had micro nodes growing on the 3 fingered true leafs.
Also, I realised there were actually some extra growth nodes on the COTYLEDON level! One even broke the cotiledon in half and grew through it!
Crazy! Never saw this happen before!
By now I've removed all the other new grow nodes from the seedling appart fram the 2 main node stems. As soon as I get some new micro nodes growing on these I'll top again for fase 2 of mainlining, and 4 main heads.
Expect updates soon.
But really guys, PLEASE HOPE FOR VAGINAS.
(my hopes are not high though...)
allthebest,
Jad3
