Right on man. I grew some Babba Kush last time but I was using LEDs and didn't have my whole setup like I do now. it was still a decent crop but the buds just never really bulk up under the LED.
what are you growing with?
Im gonna be starting them under CFls just to save some money, then blast them like after 2 weeks of living with my 400w HPS.

why not HPS the whole time?
Well my house is a sketchy place to run the 400w all day. im moving my grow room into the basement in a grow box im gonna build soon. But the light just is in my closet is just trapping the heat in and i just need better ventilation. So all those infared helis dont pick me up. Mr closet is pushin like 99 degrees. It soo bad.

ouch! yeah that is pretty hot my friend. Good luck with the new grow box in the basement.
what else do you know about these helis that fly overhead. Are they really out there doing that?
I am guessing in CA they don't care to much about little tiny one man medical grow ops and they are focusing on big fields and raiding dispensaries.

I have been curing some buds for almost 2 weeks.
They still smell like hay. How long do you guys let you buds cure before they start to smell nice and you can smoke them?

thanks man. Yah im gonna start building it soon. But yah the helis are freaking me out. Like i dont think they would just go like you said one man grow. but yah. im moving to cali when im 20 which is next year. So i cant wait to get a legal grow going. If so difficult just trying to stay a couple steps of the 5-0.
Quick ? i have flies in my closet somehow. i killd like 3-4 flys and i keep finding them on my plant. What could i do about this. im killing them by hand. becuz im the next karate kid haha. But yah i cant take these flies.
also i just germd a sour 'd bagseed. its in the soil now. and im having either orange kush or orange krush coming soon. and some blueberry strains. im stoked for this winters grow man. and the season for outdoor is half way over. {im on the northeast region] So do u think if i plantd one now outside would it be worth it?

I would say 3-4 weeks. but some say 5. But its whatever you decide when your buds are up to your satisfaction.
also what are you curing in? mason jar?

yah man i love my pot. but so did my buddies. i was living the life. blunt b4 every meal. :bigjoint:

btw im drooling over your plant. mmmm. yah 1/5 is perfect to some. i would love it. enjoy, and great grow.
Thanks man!
I am going to give them all the chop on saturday.
I am debating a 24 to 48 hour dark period.
some say the dark periods do wonders and some say it does nothing.

I have also heard to give them 24-48 hours of dark and then about an hour of light then chop.
what is the process you guys use when harvesting?

I have been looking into The phresh filter (canned carbon filter)
I am not sure how to hook up the carbon filter because I am pulling air from the light right out of the cab. I guess I could put the filter right next to the fan on the outside of the tent but that will be so freakin loud in my apt. If I put the filter and fan on the inside i am afraid it will not transfer enough heat out of the tent.
I should have got an inline 400watt.

any suggestions?
It really smells in here.
I want to have this set up by the time my next grow starts.
