Here are the updated pics of the ladies. They are 11 weeks into flowering. I had a ph problem a few weeks ago that cause the dead leaves and stunted growth. What do you guys think? How long till harvest would you say just by the pics?

whatup dude.... nice update.. So have you gotten a 16x loupe scope deal.... thats really the only way to know when to pull them... how long total time and how long does this strain recommend... it seems that they say 9 weeks and i see plenty of people letting the go 11 12 even 13 weeks.... I would go based on the trichs... keep in mind you flushing only means you only give it water for the last 1 to 2 weeks... nice plant

Thanks man! I ordered a 30x loupe but it hasn't arrived yet. I hate waiting on the mail man! Total time has been 14 weeks. Vegged for 3 weeks and have been flowering for 11 weeks. This is bagseed so I don't have any recommended times for flowering. I have read that with cfl's flowering could take 2 weeks longer than usual.

No more food it is then. Thanks man. I am planning on curing for at least 2 weeks. I will try to wait a month if I can stand it.:blsmoke:

well i have read different ways to do it... if this is your first grow... (like mine) i hear you on being able to wait. I mean some of these curing methods call for 1-4 months... about 1 to 2 weeks to dry ...depending on technique... then another 2 weeks or so of burping daily... then the burping weekly for a month or so... they say the longer you cure the tastier it gets.... i just dont know man... this is your 1st grow right?

Yeah I know what mean. I read that some cure for a year! Thats just way too long for me. :mrgreen: Yeah this is my first grow. I might hold back a nice bud and let it cure for that long just to see how much better it really is.

I know what you mean. This thing is a little bigger than I expected. Hopefully it doesn't look to out of place in my bedroom. I thought it was going to fit in my closet but its a little too big. How's the quality of the dr120? I wanted a dr80 but it is too big for my apartment. I like the clonebox though. Seems very well made.
