i hope yours and mine turn out big and sticky.

has anyone ever smoked the legal bud that they sell here. i think that if it is legal now it cant be that great. i could be wrong.

decided to flush the soil in my plant lastnight. gave her about 300 ml of fresh water(added chlorine remover to the water a couple hours before using) we have alot of chlorine in our drinking water. i sprayed the leaves with old fishwater. will add another 300 ml of fresh water in a couple days. then go back on the ferts.

she is growing nicely. all her secondary branches are growing even with the two tops. they are growing at a rate of about a half inch to an inch a day. the flower patches are all over and they are getting bigger everyday. i would take a pic but she is in her dark cycle right now. my GF is going to watch her for a couple days while i am away at work so i will put some new pics on when i get back on friday.

[attachment=o114644] this has to be the green'est buds i have ever bought. it is not bad stuff. i have had way better. but for $40 i got a decent bag.

Everythings looking pretty good. I just started flowering last week and can't wait to see itty bitty bud. I'm a little forgetful could you post the age of your plants and how long in flower when you post pics? If not that's fine. Keep up the good work.

At the moment my plant is 36 days old ( from seed ). i am 16 days into flower. i read your little problem you had with listening to your hubby and buddy about flowering early, i did the same thing, i put mine in flower at 20 days old.

here is a pic of the very top of my plant.

I'm more regreting it because I'm worried theyare growing too well and I'll run out of room. But if I had done it my way my canopy would be uneven so really what I should have done is grown less plants lol. But live and learn. If you stop by my thread you'll see I've been learning alot and working out kinks, which is really what a first grow is all about. I'm going to check out your pics again now that I know how old they are.

she is 10 1\2 inch tall. staight she would be 14 inchs. she has a canopy of 20 inchs by 16 inches.

i just bought some blackstrap molasses. how much do i use and how do i give it to her.

one table spoon per gal. boil some water, pour a glass and mix the molasses thoroughly. pour this into your water can/pail/bucket and fill with water of your normal temp.

i have no idea. i know that you have to harvest when atleast 80 to 90 persent of the hairs turn brown. i have only been flowering for 21 days and i thought that it takes about 2 months from beginning of flower to harvest. but i could be wrong.

i will take some more pics today after the light comes on. started to grow crystals yesterday.

sorry about not getting the pics my computer fucked up and i lost everything damn windows xp. but i have vista home premium now so im good to go. taking pics now. be on in a min.

Apperently the hairs isn't a great indicator. Look at the tricomes to be really accurate. So pick yourself up a 30x magnifying glass or microscope.

the buds are starting to get covered with tricomes but only about 20 to 30 percent of the hairs have turned. thw bottom leaves are starting to die now.
