Come on in and meet Icky (ice kush) my firsst grow

Yeh, but it seems to have another 2 weeks to me.

not long now

Looks great.
You really should pluck off all the dead and half-dead leaves to allow better air flow to prevent mold.
I would remove all the fan leaves below the canopy, the plants don't need them any more.

A trick I use is to manicure the buds 3 days before chopping the plant. That way the plant can produce more resin after you break some glands while handling it.
I don't really know why, but it works very well.

I agree man, i stated about the fan leaves roughly a week ago, air flow & light penetration, but otherwise odlaw should be hell proud, i am, good to see some aussies growing some killer nugs. really looking forward to seeing the end result here, its a quality grow, odlaw you absolute champion, they are some big cola's man.

It sure looks much better than my last grow..
Hopefully my current grow with be able to match up (or defeat!) he's grow.

It looks killer man, but you have some time left.
None of the hairs turned brown yet.
You have at least a week before you should begin to flush.

odlaw, trust your judgement, start your flush in next 2 days, leave it for another 14 days on straight flush. i have to ask man, does it just smell delicious in there ? youll notice after a week of straight flush the hairs will turn color, otherwise, dude, killer, absolutely killer, Icky that sweet smelling, dripping bud slut. lol

Hey looking great in there man! thats the same microscope that i use its a bitch taking photos with it, but has got great magnification
give this man some +rep he should be on 3 bars by now with this grow alone!

cheers guy and thanks for all the great comments i really do appreciate it
oh if yas didnt notice i did take a few of the popcorn branches off
hard to see as i cant get the whole plant in 1 shot when she is done im gunna take the face off the cupboard and pull her outside for a couple pics if i can lol

yeah she smells real fruity kinda lemon but really sweet

yeah mh its a real bitch to take trich photos with that thing lol o took about 15 shots that was the only one that turned out viewable lol

Use the macro function in the camera, find a spot you like and fix the focus with the microscope after half-clicking the camera.
Thats how I used to take pictures with mine, which is also the same as yours.

Fantastic looking result up to this point. I've enjoyed following it all the way. It'd be nice to get to the trimming party afterwards, just PM me the invitation

ROTFL with the temps u getting in your grow yandi i would say you are on the oppisite side of aus thats probably a lil far away to come to the trim party lol plus im thinking if there is bud porn at the party every1 needs to be naked which also means im only inviting women if thats the case

Thats one of the best first grows I seen.
Be proud!

cheers man
i was actually thinking you would so noooo let it go a couple more weeks lol
which if it wasnt for circumstances i would but im happy with the trichs
i will let the next one go a bit longer and see what the diff is and what i prefer as i am growing it for pain relief

You could just leave a few buds on when you chop and let them go for a bit longer.

well i was thinking of doing that but im in coco and from what i read they dont last long in coco without nutes but again ive also got other reasons i need to pull it

a week shouldn't do much and you could just lightly feed the plant once after chopping to keep the buds that you left healthy.

odlaw just before you rip your plant boil your kettle and pour boiling water on the roots this will cause your plant to act in self defense and force all reisn in the root system to try to reach the buds as a survival instinct and the result is resign swollen buds
