4 days left to harvest...........

......i did not harvest my ladies yet....i have got another 4 days to go plus to day, in order to complete the 56 days/8 weeks into flowering.....i am glad that i did not chop them down at 7 weeks as i initially planned....so far i have chopped a small lady down...it's been hanging upside down for like 4 days inside my closet...it feels dry enough....i weighted it today and it comes up to 0.5 oz....it's just a center cola with no side branches at all....i will sure reach with ease the overall yield of 16oz out of the rest of the garden....so far more or less have picked around an oz from all of them....this stuff i grow is great.....great smoke....after 7 days of drying a branch of my best looking plant, i got a try....rolled a joint and smoked it.....it has the sweetest taste i've had so far from a joint...burns good and tastes no clorophyl at all....it smells&tastes like sweet almond...maybe the taste is good because it was grown in soil plus i've been watering them with plain water for about 10 days so far....the big ones drink lots of water, i mean LOTS of it....everyday i water them twice, every day i need one gallon of water for 6 plants.....
the smoke result:it hits you like a thunder 5 minutes afterwards....the type of high is definately a couchlock one...by the way i used only 0.2gr of weed for the joint....what is going to be the high with like 1 gr? Fuck, thinking about it only makes me feel great.....not only because of the fact that i can put 1 gram of weed in my joint, but, because i do not have to pay for it and think how much it costs......bottom line is I FEEL GOOOOOOD!

Also, in a few days my oil will be ready, time for cooking is close......feel like baking some space cakes.....get ready for pictures :)))))))))

thats a sweet looking bud, and 16 oz is a great yeild, you should be set for a while. good job. what strain is it anyways?

the strain is called ''Twilight'' made from Dutch Passion...it is meant for outdoors but i did it indoors....it's a heavy yielder both ways :)

see you can dry and smoke great bud in a week or so. looks good man keep up the great work

You should let it cure for at least 30 day's in glass jars to break down the chlorophyll.. I admit this is the harders part of growing.

For drying i intend to leave them alone hanging upside down in a cool dry room with good ventilation 24/7 for two weeks, after that i will place them into the jars....i hope the neighbourhood will not notice the smell....so far they do not smell much....good thing about the spring....many flowers around....hahhhahahahahaha....don't know really....many many branches....total yield expected after these two weeks of drying lies between 500-650 grams /17.60-22.88 oz.....considering the grow space which is around 15 sqft i must say that the yield is going to be good, however, with that yield i do not get even lose to 1 gram /watt used taking into account i've used 2x400 watts....oh boy, i got tired of waiting for the moment to take the final picture and then timber.....we are close to that moment anyway.....gotta take some pics :)

here they are, i hope you like them....the other two are difficult to transport but nevertheless even with root bound surprisingly have turned into purple bud monsters as well....

i know i am in the wrong section of the forum but it is a thread i started....hehhehehehe....

looks good....happy harvest!

Great job- seems like no time since you were only getting started!

Very well done...I think you need to change your name now. You're not new anymore you're an old pro now.

Newgroweroldsmoker u did it! nice crop man. -give this idea a thought for the smell, when hanging tie or tape fresh flower wrap papers around them of course leaving the top and bottom open for air.

just had a smoke from a bud picked @ week 7 (left upside down for one week)
It comes from my second best plant.....i picked a whole branch.....with no regrets.....been picking buds here and there starting week 6....so far i must have harvested around 1.5-2 oz.(1oz for oil).....though my harvesting ends in 4 days ......that's it.....day 60....i think that i can push it that far.....on my two best looking plants the trichomes look milky&ready to burst and some clear.....lights go off within two days...will leave them in the dark with no water and lights for two days and then take them down.....seems a lot of work has to be done.....also...yesterday i fed two of them with (the big ones)...they have top center buds looking big and deformed...as if they are still fucking growing upwards...the ones with the huge branches and long buds.... the thc development on the leaves and on the flowers is not as excessive as the best looking plants.....their pistils are 97-98% white with a few orange here and there...moreover they have developed a purple colour on the buds..i do not know what that might be...i guess that they need more time to become like the others (partly i can attribute this to the difference in performance of bulbs...i use a 400 grolux full spectrum and a 400 shp-ts--red+orange pectrum) ..around one week more,maybe, due to root bound and excessive height.....these are so big each day they need 0.6-0.8lt of water each...FRIDAY then...i've got a date with 5 ladies...what a great moment.....see you ;)

ps..today is day 56/56...week 8 100%completed......
ps2..i will leave them upside down for two weeks..i guess that it will be enough for weighting and putting into jars
ps3...oh yeah....the smoke is great..the taste is great and the smell is sweet like honey
ps4...the strain is outdoor hahahhaahhahahahahahah

fed them with NPK:0-13-14 full strength...on the bottle of BIONOVA 13-14 says use until the final week......hehehehhe....as long as the buzz is great for first grow i am laughing my ass out everytime i think of the final yield and the variations of colours,highs and smells i will have.....

Don't for get to flush them before you harvest it will make a difference in taste.

nice job...hellz. those girls are very pretty. enjoy your smoke!!
