you know ive caught myself saying this in the past and you just have to be more patient. Its all almost worth the reward in the end. Then its all smoked up and your waiting on the other ones to finish.lol
Its an endless cycle as long as your growing. Go ahead and get used to it.

or I can help you set up a prepetual setup like i used to do indoors...
but either way you better get used to waiting.

well Tool my friend brought over the plant I bought off of him so I have 2 plants left from the 5 plants I started out with

Great stuff T.
I've been following you but haven't commented.
Just letting you know we're all for you.
Also, i too use a total CFl 27w 6500K full spectrum, except with organic soil.
I am so surprised it's working so well for us both.
It just started off as an experiment but now i'm totally behind it.
Actually i got the idea from Wikedwitch's posts but i'm trying to follow you too.
So little electricity, so great results.

yeah thats why I want my next grow to be a full success! I want enough of a harvest for me to be good for a month or so. Not really one to go a day without being buzzed. I don't mind waiting though lol I love watching these babies grow into a great plant! Knowledge is power!

Hey strictly! Glad to hear you've been following the journal. Thanks for your support! Yah I would like to try flowering with CFL's, but the HPS can handle more plants better. I will always stick with CFL's for veg. I like how I can manipulate the light and they are small and no heat.

Alright everyone a little more pictures for ya. It's day 30 in flowering. The buds are really starting to pop out around this baby. I turned the HPS for a min to take some clear pictures.

Does the droop look bad on the leaves, or is this normal??

The last one, is a wide angle shot I took of the bottom.

looking nice man. I dont think they are looking too droopy they usally do that before n after lights are turned on/off. Anyway Ya dude i'm glad ev erything is going good for you and ur girl. i'm sry that its takin her time to fill in. Hope shes not gonna turn out to be want of those 12 weekers!!

If it takes 12 weeks then I guess thats what it will take. I'm looking for the uppidy high. I smoke before I work and need something that is going to make me do work, not fall asleep lol. I will probably cut before most people would, my yeild will probably be effected to not let it get to that dark amber trichs but I dont want to fall asleep when I take 2 hits lol.

I've never heard that one before.

TOOL, could you test this?

Harvest some before they turn and some after?

I would love to be a tester! I'm going to need your help though enigma! Along as everyone's elses!!! How much can I harvest at one time with the trichs like that without hurting the plant?

Can u harvest the whole plant like that if u wanted to .Take a small nug from the buttom if ur just gonna test. Most people dont harvest till the balls are amber cause they want that potent stoned high.. not an upper high!!

Here. There was a better link cause this oone is actually missing a picture of one stage. str8 up n milky, str8 up n clear, str8 up n amber, bent over n amber. Take a look just by what the trichs look like you kno what kinda high u'll get

Trichomes

HAHA i kno what ur thinking lmfao.. its not what it looks like.. Nvm u cant actually see the link.

I'd start the harvest with the lowest branches first. Let the cola(s) stay in longer since they will produce the largest amount of bud.

Besides, if you remove the lower buds the plant will no longer have those to focus on and will put all of its energies into the top!



E

All the above information is correct as far as I can tell.
What I have gathered from reading here and elsewhere
(including seed bank information)

Clear - needs some time yet, don't rush
Cloudy - Social type "up" high
Cloudy/Amber - Mixed Buzz "up" yet "body" high as well
Mostly Amber - Couch Lock (strong "body" high)
All Dark Amber - you missed harvest

here ya go brotha
