Thanks Guys.

This is my second Grow and using the same equpiment wanted to see the difference in yield and my gardening! I definitely want to see the difference in my yields with the same environment and lighting. My first was a bagseed and now a name brand. I vegged this plant for 14 days and have done nothing different!A towel for humidity during veg and my RH stayed around 52%, 2 liter bottle with yeast,baking soda,sugar and water for a little CO2 supplementation and a tiny 9 inch box fan for some circulation, I keep humidity down in flower, around 42-45% by just spritzing the plant with some water and my temps run around 78 to 85.6 degrees lights on and 62 to 70 during lights off.

Good work for a CFL grow. A buddy of mine grows out some master k, he has a purple phenotype that is incredible so look out for that one. He cuts it at 60 days...really tasty then. Good luck with the grow my friend.

Thanks weedbaron, I like MK and really wanted to grow this. thanks for the 60 day tip.Nirvana recommends 7 to 9 weeks so that should be right before 9 weeks like 8 and a half.

today is day 31 and I am becoming increasingly impatient. I have grown bagseed but the goods are looking delicious. Hairs are starting to brown and Trichome Production is very much on the uptick. I just feed the lady today and the other two plants which are a 12/12 from seed and are both a bagseed experiment. well some pics from today. My temps are at 84.6 degrees, RH at 41, and there has been no change in environment gave the CO2 bottle a little shake and that's it for today.I love seeing Budsites everywhere!

been readin lots of other Master Kush journals and a medium for pulling(harvest) is right around 60 to 65 days! I am starting to see the retraction of the pistils as they are browning! they are also starting to get more size!Thanks for looking!

I started feeding 1 teaspoon of molasses per gallon of water. along with her nutrients! maybe thursday at next feeding will be her last feeding of nutients! just molasses and water from then on. I'm thinking of pulling her on day 60 to 65. today I really started noticing the buds fattening up looking a lot fuller! Nirvana recommends 8 weeks which is technically 56 days or so I'll start keeping an eye on tric progression.I also have noticed lots of Popcorn size buds beneath the main conopy! probably let those go a couple days longer!

Well it's been 50 days now and I have buds! fan leaves are yellowing and falling off! checked trics and am about 30 percent cloudy! did a little pruning and took some shots today. so for a 125.00 dollar grow budget I see way more bud than 125.00 dollars. as far as my second grow under the same conditions as my first I must say I think my gardening skills have gotten better! I understand that less means more and leave it alone because they want to grow!The only mistakes I made was miscalculating my flower time by one week but a look into my hand written journal clarified that. I have all grow equipment to get a serious little grow going and just had to prove to myself I was ready for this! So I will now enlist myself on the long list of brethren call Growers.
