Well most ppl thought that i should defoil a little and although not to confident i went ahead and stripped a few but not to many and yet again changed my lst in a few places. So i hope you can see the difference and hopefully get some more light to penetrate through.

Ya man big difference! Looks sweet.

Still growing away although I have signs of leaf deficiency on lower fans, you'll see from pic.

Pretty normal. Especially when you're over half way done in flowering! We're getting few of those too. Keep it up!

Into 6th week of flower now and have dropped my Micro by 2ml to 3ml but other than no changes or problems.

What a beauty! Great job, Cheech. Seems like we're all getting closer to harvest now, and seriously cannot wait! Btw, speaking of harvest, what kind of curing method are you gonna do?

Just plan on hanging them up to dry then straight into jars, Not going for brown paper method or anything special.

Not sure if she is foxtailing or not, About 7 and a half weeks and quite a few fresh pistils showed up midweek.

I have been checking with my loupe and most looked cloudy so i was planning 48 hours darkness at weekend but i decided to chop a leaf and take it to work and have a look with the microscope in there and i could see 1 or 2 slightly amber that i couldnt see with my loupe. So i have just decided to keep my lights off today. I have been giving plain ph water for last 9 days so i should be good on that front and chop her on friday.

Sadly due to only noticing this in work today i didnt get any pics before the darkness i can post.

Amber on the buds? Not the fans right

Yup took a little leaf from the top of the bud to take a closer look at in work

I could see that most were cloudy with my loupe but i wanted to see a little amber somewhere at least just to give me peace of mind i wasnt to early.

Apologys i thought i had posted to confirm my weight, Something must have happened while doing so and post has not been put up.

Anyway she was lovely and for a first grow i was delighted to finally smoke my own. The final weight after dry was 36g which for my space an experience i was very happy with.

I am about to start another which is why i am checking in on this thread. Its a bit late now but a big thanks to everyone who showed an interest and gave suggestions.

So i came across my old phone and still got a few pictures of its final hour so thought i would add it in to make this journal look more polished.

I am not totally sure this pic was just before harvest but gives you an idea of the height the plant grew.


Before chop and in the tray ready for trim.

Do you have another grow going on?

2 and a half weeks into veg buddy, took me a while to get another one running but the heat in summer just wouldnt allow me to get started sooner.
