Here's the bud shots. I need a better camera....... Go, go, go! About 2 weels out....Trichs are all clear except for a tiny few opaque, milky ones..Hope you enjoy!! Fucked something up!! Pics tomorrow, sorry!! Small buds are the clones......
Aha, I knew there was a fuck up with my pictures. Not quite sure what happened. Note the thumbnails from Day 55 post.They are dated Sept. 9th. Not sure what happened. I keep my picturess in folders using dates.....

Thanks Izoc. I appreciate the compliments. Colas are getting fat and it starting to smell sweet and sour in the tent. YUM! I didn't think the pictures took when I uploaded them. That's why I said that..... I was rushing and didn't have time to edit....



Thanks Jig. I really appreciate hearing compliments from a veteran grower. It's good for this noobs ego!! Putting new pics up in a little bit. Shit is sailing along!! Peace Bro.
Somehow.... My old pictures wound up downloading. Day 55 photos are actually dted Sept 9..... Not sure what the uploader, or my stoned brain did wrong..

The pistils are about 70% white yet, as for the trichs, They are all still crystal clear. I thought I saw a few milky ones, but upon closer inspection, I thought wrong. The colas are really bloating though. Thanks for the compliment my friend!! :leaf:

those fan leafs look so sick haha nice buds man all off a 400 hps?
I agree, some of those fan leaves are beat. Not knowing the strain of the grow, I really pushed her with the nutes. She took it all but did burp a few times with her leaves.... Thanks for the compliment. As a first ever grow, it's good to hear multiple perspectives. Thanks for stopping in and checking her out..:leaf:

Stunningly brilliant! Really, a nice looking grow my brother. Anyone would be proud of that sexy lass.
You know where the props should go!! It's like the Ron Popiel and the RONCO portable oven, "Just set it, and forget it" Except for me adding the lights, nutes and grow medium, this bitch grew herself!! I'll be in touch friend! :leaf:

Wow, that is impressive. You should be very proud of that beautiful girl; you've done a great job. Not long now![/QUOTE

Thank you PP. I think I'm going to clip a small bud today, a quick cure, and get a taste. When I thinned the lower 1/3 of her. I kept and dried a few small buds. That was 3 weeks into flower. Her THC production was at miminal than to say the least. Its taste, although grassy, was pretty smooth and it got you a little buzzed. I'm sure she's increased her THC potency up to this point. Thanks for stopping by Bro!! :leaf:

looking stunning mate...excellent work pal...
Thanks Kevin.. I always am happy to see you poke around the grow. I think it's safe to say she is coming aound the last turn of the track and heading for the finish line..Can't wait to see what Momma Nature and I pulled off!!

Damn mauler! Sorry I'm late but those are looking incredible! Its blowing my mind how much bigger they seem on day 56 compared to day 55! When are you going to start flushing?
Hey Aesan. It's an optical illusion..at least a picture DL screw up. The pics from Day 55 are actually about 22-23 days into flower. Not sure what happened. I'm think I'm still a week out from starting my flush possibly sooner, depending on how quick she runs to the finish line!! I appreciate you stopping in, "better late than never" they say!! You're actually here for the best part, the harvest!! Come back again. I do a daily update with fresh pictures.. Peace.

Good morning growers. Here we are, 3 days shy of 8 weeks of true flower. I noticed she curtailed her H2O intake a little. Maybe it's my anticipation imagining it. I've cut her nutes back by 1/2 in anticipation of the flush....(any day now????) Trichomes are still clear and I still see new pistils forming on the main cola. The first picture is the 3 clones. They are growing like mad, but because of their short, 10 day veg, are much more squat in size. But I'm getting 100% HPS penetration on them. I took my first sample bud off my "bush" and did a 3 hr dry on the bud. The taste of the smoke, considering it hadn't been cured, was very smooth, with a little taste of chlorophyll, (green). The dried bud was very sticky and had the smell of sweetness combined with the "green". I'm thinking with a proper dry and 2-3 week cure....:lol:. The high hit me on the first toke, the classic behind the eyes feeling, and quickly spread to a gentle buzz through my head. It was a very heady, spacey high. I took a second hit and felt the squeeze across my chest and wave flow over my body. I only hit the bowl twice and I was high for a few hours. Prerequisite of things to come I hope!! So here are the picture for DAY 57!! Hope you LIKE!!! Peace.

Thanks Mast. I was looking at your thread and left a bit of info someone suggested to me. I hope it helps. Glad you like her..my tester was a smash success. Smooth as hell for a 3 hr dry. Loving it!! :leaf:

Hey brother. You sure those trichs are still 100% clear? The plants are looking closer to being done from those pics. Man do they look good. I can't wait (sure you can't either).

Happy sunday!

As my friends south of 8 mile would say, "Yo shit be lookin gooder than a muthafucker". The care, and attention to detail, that you put into this grow is really showing. Your game is strong my friend.

LOL. I hope it does motivate the new grower like all of the help I received motivated me!! Common sense, a little skill, and a bit of luck goes a long way.....

Thanks Jig. I actually took a few sugar leaves and looked close with my 60x-100x scope. I DEFINTELY have milky trichs, about 50% clear and 50% milky. I checked in 3 different areas of the plant, no AMBER yet. I'm keeping a close eye on them. Thanks!

Well CG. Everyone knows you took me under your wing and showed me the ropes. I had a ton of other help from other RIU growers when I couldn't hook up with you. But you're the guy who took my phone calls and helped quell my fears and paranoia about fucking it up! You the MAN!! :leaf:

Damn chickengutz... I didn't know you ran an Emergency Growing Help line, lol. That's cool shit you helping out.

50-50 hmm. If it were me I'd start the flush in the next day or two... or today even. Maybe see what others think, as you got a lot of helping hands in here. But for me, 50-50 is time to start the final stretch. I like harvesting when I start seeing Ambers at all. Others wait for like 50% amber. I think there's probably about a week maybe 10 days between the first sight of amber to when you are at peak amber-ness. After 50% you start degrading the THC too much... in my opinion. We all seem to do things different.

I agree, when you see a few amber i like the way that they turn out! You're going to end up flushing for 7-10 days anyways and i like to put them into 72 hour darkness before final harvest!

Hey Jig. I'm looking for an in between buzz, I personally like the "up" spacey head high, but want it to be in between with this grow. With no amber yet, and alot of white pistils, I'm on the same page as you about how much longer. My tester nug hit hard and fast with a speedy, up high. Definitley to early for what I'm looking for. I can see the gold ring...and it's close!! Your line about Chickengutz was classic. He was the first grow friend I made online and his input was invaluable to me. We have become tight, offline, friends as well. With his years of successful grows, he was just what this noob needed. But you know, I appreciate yours and everybody else help. Peace. :joint:

Hey Mast. I'm gonna drain the rez tomorrow and put in distilled water. If all goes as I'm expecting, gonna plan take her down next Sat. or Sunday maybe even later. She still is taking alot of water meaning she still sucking nutes. Been a hellava ride.:leaf:
