First flowering plants

[chenman07]

thanks guys, yea it cracked me up i was watching a grow dvd the other day and they had segments of TPBs mixed into the instructional video.

The plants are doing well, one is still doing the claw thing a bit but they seem to be doing well. I will post some more pictures next friday at the end of week 4 to show progress.

Oh, currently looking into getting some lowrider 2 plants to have around while i grow longer strains.

update?

Will do, actually harvesting tonight! So good timing. Switched computers and have been to lazy to post any new pictures but here are a couple.

Lots has happened since i last updated. Mainly they are finally at harvest. I had some temperature issues when my ac compressor went out so there are some leaf burns on the plant leaves.

thanks! they are hanging up now so I just have to wait a while longer before i can smoke any .

Can you post pics and final dry weight after you're done hanging them?

[chenman07]

Sure thing, here is a picture of the plants hung up. I still need to manicure more soon and am very curious to how it smokes when properly dried.

No clue about the weight since it was my first grow and do not have an eye for that sort of thing but will post the final results after they dry( in 1-2 weeks?) before i start curing.

Kind of a moot question to ask now but by the pictures shown, do you think i harvested at an appropriate time? I had a 30x mag glass to verify almost all of the trics were cloudy then waited 3-4 days before i cut them down.

I was shooting for more of a heady high than couch lock and my clones were banging at the flowering room door to be let in. From almost every thread ive read about someone asking if their crop is ready the majority of posters recommended weeks more growing time. The plants were in week 8.5-9 when chopped.

in my opinion, your harvest window was open at the time you chopped them down especially if all the trichs were cloudy.. you were growing an indica strain right? which in general dont require as much flowering time as sativas, so I think you are fine =) especially since you say you were going for the heady high. i think you cut at the right time!!

dont stress ... you did fine!!

tell us how much you got dry .. id be interested to know!

Looks good to me! Not too many ambers for the effect you are going for.

Well done!
