hm, maybe i got it backwards... more humidity = thin leaves and less humidity = fat leaves .. the leaves soak up whatever moisture is in the air, in your area the leaves are fat because they need more surface area to grab the moistness due to the lack of it, and then vice versa for a high humidity area such as the southern states from louisiana to florida..... anyway 8 weeks is a good choice since the plants haven't shown their sex yet, keep in mind more practice/experience = better dank buds :jointsmile:
