So I just finished my first grow and I gotta say, even though it took a ton of work, money, and patience, the experience was super fufilling. I just harvested and manicured my first plant. I named her Kate and her strain was Big Buddha-Cheese from seed. She was grow in Fox Farm Ocean Forest and given Fox Farm nutes (wayyy to many btw, nute burned her bad bad in week 6). She was grown under a Floralux 150 watt hps and 4 45 watt cfls. Kate took 60 days to flower and was 93 days old total. I weighed the harvest and got 235.7 grams WET with alot of big stems so I am expecting 40-50 grams of solid good nug once dryed and cured. Is the reasonable? The buds are being hung in a cardboard box in my closet. The temp in my room is 68 and the humdity is 30% so I hope that'll be ok.

Behind her I have begun to flower two clones that I got from Kate so everything is going good?

Any feedback? Think i'll get 30 grams dry?

alot more than me most likely. Depends on alot of things (quality of soil/nutes, room temp/humidity, watering/feeding schedule, flowering time/space) but prob ounces. i'd say 80-90 grams dry if your good.

and thanks for the props

gwaziman001 your plants just went into 12/12 and they are already 2.5 feet high? i'd say your looking at way more then 80 or 90 grams.. but i'm a newbie also with high hopes and expectations!! good luck buddy!!

Day 2.5 of drying and the smell of the buds is really starting to become pungent. I bought the Cheese strain and whoever found this strain wasn't lying. It is a really unique...cheesy smell i guess. How long does it take you guys to dry your buds on average? 5 or 6 days right?

usually takes buds in a cardboard box 4 days to dry where stems snap, and hanging dry usually 5-7 days in my experience.

Today is day 3.5 and yeah I just checked on them and they are still very moist. Even the small buds. The pungency of the smell has gotten stronger which is a good thing; but the buds are definitely not done...

Nicely done, you should be proud of yourself. With those temps and humidity, five days and you should be able to take a sample.
