I can't believe those have been going for 3 months! I just hit day 70 and haven't noticed much change, just getting stinkier and pushin out orange hairs but new white ones. Like you their hasn't been much change and the trichs aren't changing much either. I will note that I just noticed within the last couple days the leaf tips in the nugs turning purple! :) Lookin good though man!

about how tall did yours get?

Thanks bro. I got 2 radically different phenotypes. 1 that grew a little over 2 feet and is very lanky and 1 that grew a foot and is very bushy.

MAN same thing here! I got one that is just over two feet tall skinny super frosty nugs. The other is just under bushier more leafs and more budsites but not as frosty... I have been giving them different nutes from the beginning doing a little test. This could be it but I feel like their just both a lil different.

Paperhouse,
Looks like you got some nice bud going. When did you start flowering? I have a similar set-up, I have the T5 HO lamp (from HTG) for veg and a 600W HPS for flowering. I also have some just about ready for harvest (hoping 2 weeks left) and I was told that the seeds were Northern Lights. I'm not 100 % sure if thats what they are or not. I do have an album for them on my page. I'm just starting to get a few red hairs here and there. I started w/ 6 and have since had to terminate 2 males w/ the 6th one getting moved into flowering yesterday for sexing.

They started showing white pistils on 8-02 so a little over 2 months.

Harvest day! Whole chop and trimming process took about 3 hours. All the scissor hash got me substantially medicated.

Hey man, awesome harvest!! I cut mine too about 2 weeks ago, make sure you dry n cure those babies properly! I hung dried mine for 3 days in the dark place, then jarred them up, and let them air dry each day for about 5 mins before i jarred them back up and put em in the dark. This shit is some DANK!! Dude your going to be happy as hell trust me. These NL autos may not be big producers, but anyone who says an AUTOFLOWER is weak and loses its potency from the ruderalis, does'nt have a fucking clue what they are talking about. This stuff knocked my dick in the dirt!
Its all gone now..smoked/sold...but...i got about 50g of sugar leaf to turn into dry ice hash as soon as my bags come in..can't wait!
Awesome grow man, can't wait to see the next one.
Check out my new grow

Completely agree with you based on the test sample that I quick dried to try. I can't wait to see how well they smoke after proper drying.

I agree with HankDank. I chopped mine about a month ago. Let them sit in jars and OMG man!! I did dip into the jars a bit here and there over the last month (it's hard not too ya know) but I kinda forgot about them for a couple weeks. HOLY shit man what a difference! How much do you think you'll yield? I only managed like 2 1/2 Oz off of two.
