Sincerely, I cannot thank all of you enough for the knowledge you've passed on to me!:clap::hump::clap: Ever since I began seriously thinking of growing my own cannabis I've been lurking this site seeking guidance and discussion. I know I haven't posted much but this forum has been extremely helpful to me. Now finally all of the reading and experimenting has paid off and tomorrow will be my first successful harvest!

I planted four G13xBuddha seeds back in December and 2 males, 5weeks of veg, and 65 days of flowering later I am happy to say I am ready to chop the 2 slightly hermaphroditic survivors. Check out the pics and let me know what you guys think I will yield!

what type of soil: Generic Potting Soil
what size pot: Not exactly sure. The small one is about 8 inches (diameter) and 6 Inches tall. The larger one is about 12 inches (diamater) and 16 inches tall.
what type of light: 600W HPS
did you enrich the air with co2: Was using a DIY co2 pump for about 3 weeks during the first half of flowering but stopped due to unforeseen circumstances.

Looks good for your first grow!

Always hard to tell from pics but I'd say you're in the 6oz range

those buds are thick has fuck next time veg a little longer! but that just looks soo good how you got everything to grow all unifor like that... thats a sick ass grow for your first grow.. you even harvesting at the proper time...
Thanks so much man. I was limited to space when I was vegging so i couldn't let them get too big that's why I only went 5 weeks. To be honest, I've had about 3 or 4 failed half-assed grows in the past so It's fair to say I learned from all my mistakes in the past.

next time use bigger pots and you would have doubled your yield, I am going with 5 zips.
Wow really? You got me all giddy now. This whole grow I've been thinking if I end up with 2oz I'll be one happy sailor. 5oz is ridiculous I can't even comprehend it right now. Thanks!

Thanks man! A combination of Topping, LSTing and supercropping is what helped amplify all of the colas.

Appreciate it! First and foremost, I used molasses all through out my grow. During vegetation I used a generic 15-30-15 all-purpose fertilizer from the local hardware store. For Flowering I used the 15-30-15 generic fertilizer + Grotek's Monster Bloom.

Boy does it work! I actually kept giving molasses up until the last flush about 5 days ago. Supercropping was the last tweak I made after tying down and topping. Beware of overstressing them though. I believe that might have been the reason for them going hermie in my case. Good thing I kept a close eye out for developing pollen sacs!

Thanks alot hombre! 120g eh? I sure hope so! In hindsight I much regret not doing a journal. I was considering it but what it came down to was I lacked self-esteem and confidence in my growing skills and didn't want to publish my many amateurish mistakes. In retrospect, those mistakes i made were interesting and how i fixed them should have been documented for all to see and maybe I could have had some help along the way. I give my word to the fine folks here at RIU that I will definitely do a journal for my next grow. :bigjoint:

my guees is 2.4 ounces
Based on my plant, that was Snow White by Nirvana inside a 5 gallon pot, and transplanted late, you'll be around where I was. And I got 3 oz dry.

I vegged between 7-8 weeks, topped, did not super crop though. (looking back I should've). This was under a 250watt hps
