jus gravy I just read through your journal and your setup is sweet, love the pics - that is one lovely hairy girl! What strain is she, if you know?

I also had the uno female during my grow, and she was the runt too! Only takes a few days for them to have their growth spurt though.

congrates!

its looks like decent bagseed from the amount of hairs. bagseed is always extrmely hairy in my previous ventures with bagseed

yea its just your round about dank. If anyone could give me some advise though it would be appriciated. Hairs are starting to turn redish brown and just curious to know if theres anything i should be doing during this phase that i havent already been doing. Everything is nice and healthy and usually i just snip any leaves off that turn yellow or any burnt spots on the leaves. Is there anything i shouldnt be trimming up? How close to the end of the flowering phase do u just stick to water? all help is appreciated and new pics will be up soon with nice phat buds

i have never harvested so im not an expert but based off the information of the members here and things i have read (ive read shitloads). nothing but water for 2 weeks before harvest. no nutes. most harvest when 80% of pistils are red. depends on the high you want, if you have a microscope you can look at trichomes, if they are all clear it's too early, if they are mostly all cloudy you will susposidly get more of a head/energetic high, if they are mostly all amber you need to harvest, just like witht he pistils, and it gives more of a body/couch potato sleepy high. and of course there is an inbetween i would think if you harvested when you have 50/50 cloudy/amber trichomes. (just using my logic here)

added new updated pics to my gallery. i will try to put them on here tomorrow. lately i havent been able to get on here as much due to work but shes doing great. Anyone know anything about putting dry ice in a cooler... then putting a rack a few inches above the ice for the bud to sit on before i go to dry it out in a couple of weeks? any tips on harvesting anyone? this is my 1st grow sooo ive been having to learn as i go.

Dude I'm jelous. I'm just starting to flower my plant and with everyone saying CFLs won't work I started to think I was wasting my time. You proved them wrong and did it well. Those are some mighty fine looking buds I must say.

How much did 6 of those CFL's run your elect. bill up? I know they are the energy efficient bulbs and don't use a lot, but just curious. What strain is that?
What fertilizers did you use?

i live in an apartment and my electric bill is at an average of 65 bucks a month. thats with 6 lights on 12 hours of the day... 2 fans & an air purifier on 24 hours a day. then again i dont use my ac and heat too much but still 65 isnt too bad i dont think. as far as strand goes i have no clue. i had been getting several name brand buds and just kept the seeds for the past couple of months before this grow op. being my 1st time i wasnt too concerned with the strand due to if it wouldnt have worked out as well as it has that little plant would have broken my heart if she parished haha.

would it be wrong to just cut the big colas off 1st and start to harvest them while the small buds on the bottom continue to fill out? i was just thinking about this lastnight and everyone usually speaks of harvesting it all at the same time.. so any ideas lemme know
