Thanks Weedmaster.. I've read some of your grows, you know what you're doing mate! And another UK grower... nice one buddy!:thumbsup:

I cut all the yellowing leaves, if just "felt" like the right thing to do ya know? They were very limp, and i thought that yellow leaves can't perform photosynthesis so .. they're gone. We'll see!

Stealth - thanks for that advice.. :thumbsup:

Yo RS!!

Thanks for droppin into my little thread!

Hope you like the pics, they are about 3-4 weeks from ready (i hope!) its my birthday at the end of this month too.. how cool is that!? I really couldn't have timed it that well could I?

The 6 girls were vegged for 7 weeks BTW, initially under 55w CFL's, then 800w MH, and now 800w HPS.

Was gonna veg for 12 weeks, and i'm still laughing to myself about that one still... :jointsmile:

Weedhound - am so trying to get that RH down, its just difficult in England, it rains like, all the time! When its dry its just a whisker this side of damp.

Do the best you can Mj....and some prayer wouldn't hurt with rh like that. blow air, blow air, I am not tryiing to scare you but you could lose the whole grow to mold....especially towards the end....wish I had more to offer....you can use an anti-fungal but, again, you are very close to finish....I'd be scared to put it on my buds at this point.

We need a soil someone to chime in on this.....i'll try to find some sucker.....i mean...um....expert...:wtf: Makes me wonder if humidity is wilting your buds....frankly it wouldn't shock me if that WERE the issue with that (STRICTLY A HYPOTHESIS :jointsmile

Good luck.....

Thanks for update there WH..

Gotta say I am worried about the RH (although its at a "pleasant" 55% right now).. but like i said there's nothing i can really do about it, except invest another £200 for a decent dehumidifier - which will be at the top of my shopping list come for the next grow after Xmas.

As far as that weird bud goes - well i've been giving it a lot of thought and I really think its heat damage - this one plant has ALWAYS been succeptable to it, from about 3 weeks in from seed. As soon as i got it under the MH's i saw leaf burn after 2 days. So i'm hoping its just that. I'm thinking this because all the growth lower down is fine.

I've given all em a good feed n water tonight, and trimmed off some yellow leaves. Some more pics here.

Thanks again WH for your thoughts (and to everyone else too!) - VERY much appreciated!:thumbsup:

Will post more pics, around day 42.

Take care y'all!

Hi everyone, thanks for dropping in!:thumbsup:

All the girls are still going strong, at least another couple of weeks to go yet, maybe 3.

RH is hovering around 50-60%, will see how it goes (fingers crossed!)

Any thoughts are always very welcome!

Hope you like pics!

Hello boys n girls, this is an update from week 7 of this thread.

They're really starting to fill out now, although not sure if its gonna be 8 or 9 weeks till ready - there's still no amber trich's, although a lot of em are now cloudy.

As you can see from the pics there's extensive plant support as i'm trying to maximise floor space. The main cola on the biggest plant started to lean over to the horizontal! I guess thats a good sign.

Oh... i had my 1st smoke of them this week, a lower branch snapped off (damn), so i hung n dried it for 4 days. Still a little green but very nice n sticky, a nice buzzy head thing going on. Smells very citrus. :thumbsup:

OK well anyway hope you like the pics, i'm proud of these ladies - its my 1st indoor grow too!:thumbsup:

Any comments? Always welcome...

Take care y'all!!:jointsmile:
