3 1/2 ft White Widow...How am I doing???

[ledsled96]

I can't say for sure how old she is but I think she was a seedling the first part of July @ 24/0 and I started 18/6 light cycle about 3 weeks ago. I had an issue with her wilting away and people said she was overwattered. Now, mind you I appreciate every bit of help I can get from this site so don't take this the wrong way. Come to find out...she was dry as a bone. I am running a 400w HPS in my grow tent with an air cooled hood and I keep the temperature inside the tent around 78 - 81 degrees with a 6" exhaust to the outside and a 4" intake. It's amazing to see this grow from just one little seed. This is my first grow plus I am easily ammused. Thoughts or suggestions would be most appreciated.

Can I stay at 18/6 until harvest? Since I went to the 18/6 cycle I have seen about 3/4" per day growth. Again, any idea how long until harvest?
Thanks in advance.

If you stay at 18/6 until harvest you'll cheat your self out of much bud and that famous WW frost in my opinion...

I wish I had a digital camera when I was growing the Widow...:420thought:

How long until harvest and what light cycle do you recommend?

[dooobster]

I'm surprised it even started flowering at all under 18/6... amazing.
She looks pretty good!
Drop her down to 12/12 and give her 6 weeks, then start checking your trichomes.
You'll be glad you did.

To dooobster...I went in to change my times on the timer and...DUH! I have been at 12/12 for about 3 weeks. I don't know what I was thinking. Where will my mind be when I DO get a buzz???? How do they look otherwise?
Thanks in advance.

[dooobster]

They look great man. Very nice... They'll be monsters by the time they're ready for harvest!!
