You did a great job (as usual!)!!! Those buds look kinda fruity, are they? I know they aren't done drying yet.

I can't wait to have a big pile of clippings. Hash and ganja butter make me happy.

the yellowing of the leaves is from over nute. I added a double dose of nutes on accident in a new container and f d em up. they will be okay, but will not grow to their full potential. oh well, you live and learn.

here is what it looked like strung up







and this is what it looks like now




I dried them out for 3-4 days, then put them in jars for the last 1 1/2 days. will open and shut every 12 hours until desired. hell, it is very desirable right now in the economy.hehe.

yum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! look great man you smoke any of it yet?
yes, it is nice and tasty. a little too moist as it was, but now i got enough dried. curing to perfection as we speak.:blsmoke:

no water cure. just popping the lids and stirring em up.

But what da scales say? ;)
so the first plant i cut down a couple of weeks ago was 25 grams but i cut the top off after flower like a noob, so i knew i was going to have more per plant. so I cut down the next 5 and that is what is in the jars. I weighed six of the jars and it came out to 5 oz. so i am hopeful the other 6 jars will net me 5 oz, which would put the total weight of the 5 plants at 10 oz, 2 oz per plant. Is this good? So when I swapped out my 400 for the 600 and use that, doesn't that make it 2 grams per watt? is this right? I can remember something to the effect, but uh, you know, stoner here. I am very proud of myself and actually have all of my friends covered.

Looks so nice dude! If you started at a foot and they grew 4 times that, I am screwed as I waited until 18" and have limited height.

ok, i just did the math and i made a mistake. i harvested another plant that i forgot about and it ended up totalling 10 oz out of 7 plants, whatever that is. still good for a first grow. my supergirls are huge, will get a few pics of those badass ladies later on when they wake up.

they might have been just under 40 in. i measured them once or twice but forgot. i was surprise how muc they grew. they are sativa so they blew up. if you have indica, you would be fine. i vegged 3 supergirls for a solid 2 months and they are a lot bigger height wise than these first bagseeds. i am sure you will be alright.

you mght need to tie it down at the end. but it depends on strain.

whew! Thanks. I tied the bitches down, but now they are trying to get wider! They are cali indica x sour diesel, I think they are supposed to be sativa dom but idk. They are also supposed to be a stable cross, but I think I have 3 diff phenotypes. Thanks for the reasurrance:leaf:

Da Kine, by now you've already harvested, and most likely your next crop too. Congradulations!! I know how good it feels. Wish I could've found this site a little earlier. I spent many years growing myself, and had a lot of fun doing it. I've taken a lot of years off now, but I miss it too much and will soon be doing it again.

First, somebody told you to nuke your weed in the microwave to dry it. Whoever said that was an idiot. NEVER do that! You've gone through so much, spent so much money on your grow room, lights, nutrients, fans, ducting, electricians, you name it. Giving in to impatience at this point, is ridiculous.

What I used to do to dry my buds, which worked very well, was I converted a wooden reptile cage which had two vented holes in both sides on the bottom, and a glass door opening towards the front, into a sort of dehydrator. In the top of the enclosure, I cut a hole about 4 inches wide in the top, and afixed a small 4 inch fan over the hole drawing out the moist air from the bottom through the 2 bottom holes through the top. Inside, I strung wire lines from side to side, and hung the buds on coat hangers on the lines. In about 3-4 days, all the buds were dry, and went straight into jars.

Second, those spots on the leaves late in the growing are most likely mites. Make sure to check on the underside of the leaves for those little bastards. If it's not bugs, it could be something you sprayed on the leaves other than purified water? I've never been a fan of spraying plants with anything but pure water UNLESS they have bugs. Mites and whiteflys are the worst. If you do decide to mist your plants, do it during the night cycle, and use a green light to illuminate the room so you can see without interfering with the light cycle.

Third, and I can't believe nobody else told you to do this earlier, but instead of topping that one tall plant next time, just bend the tops over to the same height as some of the lower branches, and you'll still get big buds on them, plus you'll be able to lower the lights down a little bit to help out the lower branches that would previously would've been further from the light. Navigating through all my different harvest growrooms was sometimes a chore because of all the twist ties, but it made for unbelievable sized buds. Btw, those three plants in the the other room look awesome! Definitely prioritize those.

Fourth, I noticed that some of the leaves were turned down. (not many, but some) That is usually attributable to a pH that is a little too high, or overwatering, or both. The best advice I can give any new grower is that when you decide to make any changes, make ONE CHANGE AT A TIME. Otherwise, learning from your experiences will become more difficult. Above all else, be patient, and keep up the great work! Thanks for sharing your grow with us. - Peace
