Looks good man! I'm trying to figure out how to take a video of me cloning without having my face in it and it's kinda hard. How am I to hold the camera? How many watts are you running? You got some good looking weight my buddy has a cfl grow I was wanting a comparison. Our first grow we got the lightest leafiest weed ever mostly air and leaf barely any calyx. He was using cfl and now he's worried the same thing will happen. This time we have the lights super close to the plants last time they were further. We also have more lights. I will post an update on my grow so I don't jack your thread. You'll soon have all the seeds you need!

I ended up with 697 cfl watts actual... 115 watts of that are 5000k,, all the rest are 2900k.. I rotate the bucket 1/2 turn daily. have a 20 inch box fan moving air. 10 inch hi-velocity fan pulling air out , fresh air in from bottom of door. was never looking for volume, looking for quality, with what I have learned s far, pretty sure I can double my volume though.

I was meaning the buds were dense. Quality over quantity is always better. You seem like you're doing right tho. I need to get a scrubber or something my room is stinking and they're not in flower at all, or a measly week into flower...

my exhausts into my attic, and I let the fan run a few minutes before I open the door when the light comes on.. what I am running into now is the problem that most growers go threw I think,, stop trimming the dam plant for samples,,, mmm mmm mm ,, but they are so tasty,, yes they are dense.

today is 47 days of flowering, that is from the flip date,, the write up says 55-65 days to maturity,, sugar leaves are starting to go by the way side at a faster rate . yellow every where, I also am running into what I can only imagine what a lot of other growers go threw,, STOP SAMPLING THE DAM PLANT,, but they are so good .lol

One thing I did when I got thirsty like that and wanted to pull all the buds to test: I took off the big sugar leaves and some fan leaves let them dry (microwave or other heat source and smoke them. Obviously it wasn't the best smoke but it saved my buds. And made trimming a bit easier

That one with the purple stems and yellow leaves needs some magnesium. Other than that beautiful looking plants. Skinny sativa leaves looks good

Very nice very nice. How much longer you think? Make some budda out of all those fan leaves. I used about a qp of leaves to make budda and it was amazing. If the leaves get me that high I can't wait to see how good the buds are. Nice grow. I too am sold on the c99 and I'm picking some up in a couple weeks. Attitude has a birthday promo 11 free seeds with 40£ order and you get 2 freebies already. I'm totally looking into that cause if you get the right pack you get the 11 birthday promo freebies 2 afghan kush freebies and freebies from the seed bank. Of course you got a bunch of seeds as is :) I've got 200 double white cheese

just couldn't seem to get my camera to focus on zoom like I had done before,, will be doing a slow dry and cure process, I am at this point more concerned about my seeds than I am about the smoke from the buds,, yea that even sounds like blasphemy to me to ..but I'm looking towards the future, and seeds Is what I need when I get there,, lol.

You can search for seeds while the buds are still soft after you chop put on gloves and while you're trimming gently pop out the seeds. Mark which is which though so you don't end up with a bag of random
