An intimate look inside the sparkly world of the bud im soon to be smoking. Trich's are even growing from the stems as seen in pic 3 :thumbsup:
Lesson Learned:
Clipped another bud off the smoking plant as she progresses. I'm happy picking sweet popcorns off to smoke now while the other two finish. The one furthest from the light is going to yield less yet still filling out better than expected. Its too fucking good to wait. Clip/dry method, micro ~1/2 power 2 mins. extra 30 sec is still a lil bit too damp. :stoned: You still keep your trichs. Sit on paper towl, wrap up gently. Blitz. And Blitz :smokin:
Toped plant. Still yeilding fair. Buds are very nice, very appealing.
Unrestrained plant. Main cola's where its at. Its too bad the fans got burnt and are deformed of id show more, ill show when its finished. Plus main cola in this strain apparently gives the lower more incentave to grow larger as well.

And my thoughts would be, for this strain of course, Two females, veged the same, proper adjustment of height of the lights by raising them up sooner, Raising the sides sooner, w/out topping woulda have achieved max efficiency.
Perhaps a wood dowl frame to be able to shut the closet (which would have been no deal w/o the third plant. "adapt to your grow" )
Im soooo high. I love this strain. W/o a doubt the most forgiving strain ive ever encountered. She just WANTS to grow <3

lookin real good bong. how do you like the closet compared to cabinet. i just put all mine in a closet about 3 days ago from an attic.
I absolutely LOVE it. And of course, since its a different style all i can think of is how my modifications along the way worked, tweak, and improve unpon.Quote:

Day 42 flowering: I'm going to do this over multipe posts for each pic.
with only 2-3 weeks left, i figured while I did my final housekeeping of rearranging, watering, pulling off old and dying leaves and shit branches... and I was gonna be pulling them all out, i figured id give one full sneak peak before harvest.
Who says you need alot of light? Good genetics, a lil know how, some inginuity, and the ability to read and know the plant and adapt -- you can grow some good herb. Each grow continues to be an amazing experience. The grow it self is a more passion than hobby. I love it. And the results of your love put in is always seen in the end product. I sound like such a hippie...:hippy:
Ok lets take a look. This is all the plants. Its time to feed and get the crud out, keep the space tiddy.
This is by far the shining star of this grow. I went three ways, 2 topped, 1 w/ a main cola. This strain OBVIOUSLY produces heavier w/o topping.
She stands from dirt to top just shy of 4 ft. The top cola is heavy. she almost snapped under her weight, i had to use a wood dowl for support.
This plant got seriously burned by the HPS, so I topped much latter on, shes got decent looking buds, but even the side buds of her sister are heaver. This strain wants its main cola. Her other sister aka the smokin plant, shows this more dramatically (even tho shes less under the lights)
This is the smokin plant. Shes what ive been clipping a bud off a day on. Shes got small lil buds all around. Dont get me wrong, the buds that ARE there are solid and nice, theyre smaller. I call them popcorns..... But they are still like 2 or 3 bowl packs in size.
This "3rd" smokin plant, shouldnt have been here this grow. I woulda rather the energy used to grow her have been put into the other two. But this was my first go in this space, and so I have 0 complaints.
This is a preview shot of the main cola, the lighter used for size reference.
It should ALWAYS be adapting. The plant itself grows, work around it! I turned plants so the two tops are now DIRECTLY in the hps and the CFLs are more centered throughout. I also added this wood dowl in the center for support to the lower branches so they could reach higher for light. The REFLECT-X Striping got raised, suspended by a string harness w/ loops.
IDEALLY, this is what the closet would look with, only with two plants that look like the left (untopped) one. The door would close as completely.
