Hi all! It's been almost two weeks and this is the latest picture.

The plant had spider mites and I had them treated with some organic spray. Roughed this plant up real good getting it treated.

The smell has really died down with this guy in the last week.

All pistils have color in them.

Also it is having a number of branches fall off like the plant is drying out and dying.

I'm not watering it very much now and letting it go really dry between waterings.

What do you think?
Can we get a close up shot?

imminent nom! and with those buds i bet its hard to resist.

and i wouldn't let it get too dry between waterings... maybe add some molasses to beef up your yield. looks really good though.

well it depends how long you Veg them, if anything you should go 18/6 for like three weeks then go 12/12, its usually about 9 weeks floweing

  1. On the 23rd I chopped it down, trimmed all the big leaves and hung it upside down from a rope in a dark closest. Had good air flow.
  2. It stayed hung up there until today the 31st. Stems snap and any leaves left sound brittle, when the buds are pressed they are a bit soft...I'm not sure if they are dried enough.
  3. Trimmed any small leaves that were still present.
  4. Weighted in at just over 4g. The buds are really loose.
  5. Now I will keep it in the airtight container and burp it for a few weeks.
  6. Will test some today.:weed:


Question: It's really sticky!! and I can't get all the stickiness out of my fingers, does this mean it's still wet? Good/Bad/Suggestions?

Like you, i'm also new
Sites great aint it
I grow 2 at a time and cross my fingers
Both girls this grow, cfls too.
I veg real short time, less than 2 weeks
so cfls can penetrate better.
36 days since sex showed and both colas are 10 inches long 3-4 in diameter and loaded with bud
Side lighting helps a ton, lots of buds that look like 3 marshmallows stacked on top of each other.
Peace

BTW the stickiness is just the THC
I figured as much. The sticker the better huh.



:eyesmoke: = smoked it in my last post.

Ya that stuff got me really high which i didn't expect from the minimalist style grow (39w).
I didn't smoke much either; busted it, packed a mini bowl and took a heroic rip from it.

...fresh is best?
