good to have you back growww, and SimplyBaked, maybe we can start exchanging clones in the near future
lots of action in the state legislatures right now
just watered/fed her, really ripening good, just like my 1st time, but faster

just short of 7 weeks of 12/12 and all is pretty good
the 'breeder book' on this strain is 8 weeks
i went 11 weeks from seed on the 1st go with this strain
and that was pretty early by my trichome checks
so 2 more weeks easy, i'm looking for a bit more body this time

Beautiful man, beautiful! I just got through reading your first grow and this one and I am glad I read it. Great transition, can't wait to see how the high compares to the mothers high. Keep us updated. ^^

the 7 week flower point has been crossed, looking quite a bit like the 1st grow
pic without grow chamber, she's big enough now for a close up
but not as big as 1st grow, well better than having it get of control in height
big fans are yellowing out, but that is how it was before
my guess yield will be a dry oz of bud, which is adequate
but next time will be bigger, provided i can reveg and clone her again
but that will be the end of the nl#5 grow logs, time for new strains

gonna be at least 2 weeks, maybe longer
trics mostly clear, maybe a few cloudy, i'll be posting tric pics in a week or so
interesting thing about this strain, when i harvested last time, had a lot clear left, you can ripen northern lights a long time, it just gets stronger and stronger(got to be a limit though)
anyhow, after curing, many of the clear trics turned yellow, not amber, and was very strong smoke
was also fairly heady, which is what i want trim down on this time

4 more days, a little plumper, smells nice too
really smells like an odd, light pine freshener
not quite 8 weeks, did the first look at the trichomes
lot of clear, bit of cloudy, that's still faster ripening than the seedling grow
side buds are looking a bit better than seedling grow
looks like better than 1 oz of bud, love to match the 35g from 1st time

time flies by, 8+ weeks of flower
the lower buds are definitely better than the mom
i thought this clone was ripening quicker than the seedling mother
maybe not so much, no amber trics yet
but i'm going to ripen her out proper this time

See, Im really wantin to do a 1/2 gallon grow. After gettin down my party cup (finally) im thinkin of doin 1/2's.

Growin small is hard as shit! They look small, so u dont think they need much. Wrong! My little chick eats more than my 3 ft bushes:) but then u get comfy, and end up over feeding...

i agree on small is hard, was for me
wondering if my shallow 2 quart pot(4 inches deep) was something the roots didn't like
fed 2 different strains pretty heavy, or thought i did, just stayed in suspended animation
cost me a lot of time, but didn't lose any plants

getting closer growww, but it's going to be a while yet
right around 10 weeks of flower, interesting as always
the 1st grow from seedling had a stretch from 5 inches to 29 inches
this time the stretch was from 7 inches to 21 inches
so that was pretty different
now for the trichomes, not a bit of difference from what i can see
same level of maturity this time as from seed, frosty but no amber
so here's the trichs and plant pix
