I didn't use the pods they sent, I got some of those pressed ones and broke them up and put them in the plastic tube and put the seed in the middle about 1/2 inch down, and watered and put the fert. tab in and in a couple of days they sprouted. two are doing great and growing like 'weeds' one is a runt and don't know if it will make it. I use miricle grow for fert as well, just small amounts. Now about a foot high and smells great. nodes are big. It's my first time so not sure about when it will bud but I just keep watching and waiting...

Took the LR out of the closet today, I figured I would show some pics. What you guys think and how much you think it will yield?

Beautiful man, those other buds look good as well, should grind it up, have a fat stash of shake, roll some J's :bigjoint:

Ok here is the scenario, since the LR is in soil and in a pot I have to manually water it. I am leaving out of town in about 2-3 days for about a week. My concern is how long will the plant survive? Also I thought about putting a large pot full of water underneath the soil pot. However you have seen the pics, should I chop it before I leave or water it really good and let it dry out by the time I get back? By the way since I put the plant under HPS lights the buds seem to have got more densed. Please advise.

How long has it been?

Do you water your plant every day? If you water it like every other day thats probably fine if you are gone 3 days, you're going to chop it when you get back anyways right?

I water it every other day, and in about 2-3 days I will be leaving out of town for a week. So you think I can water it crazy the day I leave and have a larger pot on the bottom of the soil pot so water can go through the soil and collect in a larger pot underneath the soil pot?

Here is a pic I took really quick, do you think the buds got denser? I still think they may need some time. Its been 9 weeks and two days since the spout of the plant. If you notice the cfl lights now are on covering the bottom part of the plant. The top part of the plant is getting light from a HPS bulb.

Oh wow, I'm stoned and I thought you were leaving for 2-3 days, yea I'd just chop them before you leave, but as late as possible.

Looks good man, I'd just chop the little guys too, might as well do all of it at the same time and let it air dry when you're gone then cure it.
