My first grow! Skunk #1!

looks like there stretchin a bit you might wanna lower that light

day 53........ still dunno when to harvest.....

last pic...

its looking good...have you read the faq on watching the trichomes to know when to harvest?

if not, all you need is a 10$ microscope from radioshack and just take a look at them every day or so until the trichomes are right

That $10 microscope will give you hours of "fun".

yeah definately get one. i got one from the dam wen i went for the 7th time. And was amazed to see them change through the different stages. also i heard using a black light helps up frosting on the buds. don't know weather u use this on the light hours or the dark hours!!! Anyways nice grow. i've got 3 skunk#1 10 days old at mo under a 200w cfl,also 2 badseed 10 days old under this light to! also i got 1 bagseed plant 1 & a half months old under my new 400w light! Nice grow. Congrats dude!

day 58 of flowering.... what do you think? harvest?

I still see a fair amount of white hairs. REALLY GET THAT MICROSCOPE !

today is 60 days of flowering, and i move them in to basement, where the temp is way better! i did know that i have temp problems, but it was a little complicate to move them in basement. now i did it, hope that will help. i have 69.8 F in basement (21 C), and till now it was something like 89.6 - 95 F (32-35 C)

took some pics.....

Hey man haven't check up in a while. Plants look good. Guess what we both are having an issue with our skunk #1, they're taking me a longtime to harvest too, they grow pretty slow I find. I would say give it as long as possible, seems I'm going to do that.

crap im also growing this strain. not good hearing it takes ages!!!

yea skunk#1 is a late maturing strain always waited till like almost end of october before i picked my buds. and for future refrences i wouldent put your plants on the concrete as it gets cold and is bad for roots. nice plants though but next time you need to start the lights closer so you will end up with closer growth nodes and fatter colas but you will figure out the do's and donts as you go cuase you will see what effects the plant in what way.

well...... i know i'll learn from mistakes, and just today i think about the light closer to top on my next grow, which has already started! you can check my 2nd grow also. thanks for advices.

smelly... only one of them... the other one is also, but less..... and the one which smells, has more trichomes then the other....

aboud buds... i think the one which smells has the bud more compact than the other.
