Awesome - that's some good budding for a foot tall. No one's going to smell that hanging?
I figure if they don't smell them now.. I should be good drying one set at a time. I currently have 4 plants with bud on them. plus I keep my room pretty well ventilated with the door closed most of the time whether I'm in or out of it. This is a test.. so We'll see.

again sorry for no updates, I've been pretty busy with midterms lately. Here is a quick pic of my Royal Dwarf. She is about 2 weeks from harvest.

All of the trichomes have turned milky white. She continues to add some weight everyday. Tomorrow I will do my best to give you guys a fell updates on all of my girls. the clones from my KC36 mother are coming along nicely. They should be showing sex within a week and a half.

time -->> 11:57pm. HAPPY HALLOWEEN.

Hey guys. So as I said earlier, my Royal Dwarf is just about 2 weeks from being done. (obv estimation, she takes as long as she takes). She has amber trichomes popping up everywhere. But not in large numbers. And she continues to swell.

My KC36 Seeds are coming along nicely. Lots of the leaves are falling off due to lack of light. There isn't really much i can do about that right now. If I add more CFL's my container, it will get too hot. So we are going to just finish them off and see how they turn out. If it comes to it, I will be getting a mini HPS setup for flower. But i really hope it doesn't come to that because that will be a major engineering feet. I might end up setting up a hydro grow at home for my mom if I am able to get legal as her grower.

Good News - My Kc36 is officially a Mother! the first two clones I took from her show'd their hairs this morning. I pretty relieved about that. This means that every single seed I originally planted has turned out to be female *knock on wood*.

They are also taking off just like their mother did as a seedling. I expect great things from them. I also transplanted the second set up clones into 4" pots yesterday night. I am thinking of topping them to keep them on the shorter side. Might allow me, when the time comes, to put additional lighting in the flowering container without having room issues. That will only leave me with the issue of heat, which can be figured out.

Anyways, here are the girls.

Royal Dwarf - 43 Days flower
KC36 (no lower leaves) - 35 Days flower
KC36 (lower leaves, but little foliage) - 25 Days Flower
KC36 (bushy at base) - 22 Days flower
KC36 (little leaves / short) - 5 Days flower (this is the one that almost died on me)
KC36 Clones - 6 Days flower (yes they did show sex that soon)

Enjoy

That's true. If they don't smell it now then drying they likely won't either. :) Plus fresh and growing bud doesn't really smell like when it's smoked. At least to me.

Everything is looking amazing!! I've decided that I am just going to do this myself while I am upgrading all my equipment!!

Haha, i definitely wont smoke it in the house. I will Vape with candle on... or I'll go out on the roof; as i do have an awesome view off my roof.

Awesome dude, just be aware that you have MAJOR height and room restrictions. But if you are able to cope with those, then you should be golden.

Quoting this to reemphasize the height and room restrictions :P. Lst and/or scrogging is necessary in my opinion

Can also just use small pots to prevent a lot of root growth and therefore keeps them small. But, as seen from my plants, the CFL's dont reach the lower parts of the plants which can be an issue. I think i might have figured out a way to add 1 or even two more cfls to my cab. Will post when i figured out if it will work or not, and how I will go about configuring it. It involves new light mounts.

Man I wish I had something to walk out on - I own a house however we don't have a deck or anything. I bet you do have an awesome view out there though! I live in the "country" here, considering in RI you drive from urban to rural to urban to rural over and over. Where I am is the only real large rural area in the state - so everyone considers this the country. I appreciate the real countryside though!

I have no space restrictions as I would use your method in my closet. I figure if I am upgrading to a couple HIDS, why bother growing out a few bigger plants? I should just do a bunch of little ones with all my current setup.

Yeah dude for sure the bigger the better as you get more bang for your seeds. I'm not quite sure what my method is haha, But thanks for giving me credit! Yeah I'll have to post a pic of my view on my next update.

Morning Waji,

I'd say your method is some kind of small crop/mini grow/quick crop. I like quick crop because it's catchy. ;)

Even folks who don't have the space and stealth restrictions that you have, I don't see who WOULDN'T be interested in your method. You know, not everyone wants to (or physically can) care for huge plants. Plus not everyone feels like messing with HID's, "elaborate" vent systems and the works. Take my closet for instance. It already had an access to the guts for the shower plumbing. All I did was bore a 4" hole and shove my vent pipe down so my $30 inline vents right to the basement. Then I have my cheap little CFL setup that produces next to no heat. For someone 50+ years old, and or disabled, my closet set up and your short plant grow - forget it, they'd be so happy.

Our system is designed that way too. (Short, small grows) We are allowed 12 veggers, 12 flower BUT only 2.5o of "useable" medicine at a time. There isn't the best example of useable aside of the definition the law gives. For example we don't know whether it's lawful enough to keep a log of drying and curing times and label all that as non-useable until it's done. Is it useable? Technically I could suck my bones inside out trying to get a hit off of wet bud - but if you showed any non cannabis user a pile of newly cured bud and freshly trimmed bud, they will say both are "useable" based on appearence alone. You and I know thats no the case.

In your state medical patients don't really have the issue right? Is it you guys that you can ride dirty with like a friggin QP totally legal? Or are the laws different based on driving, whats in your house, etc?


I've got 4 "seedlings" right now that I am goin to flip soon and I'm trying to sprout more. I just flipped a LST one that I vegged for over a month though, shes gonna suck up light!

Haha Quick Crop, I like it.

Washington States restrictions are based on having a 60 day supply at all times. The definition they give that is no more than 24oz (yup yup over QP legal). which if you are vaping.. is an unreal amount for 60 days. Also we are allowed to have no more than 15 plants. There is a loop hole and I'm not sure if RI has it also. As long as the bud is still on the stock, it is considered a plant. So if you have it hanging you could have pounds, but as long as you don't have more than 15 plants at any given time and you don't pull off more than 24oz, you are golden. Because that this, I have been thinking up a curing container, where you can cure your bud while it is still on the stock.

Overall our state is pretty chill when it comes to ganja. I read somewhere that, in Seattle, there hasn't been a person arrested for mj in the last year and a half, but not that I think about it, I'm pretty sure we decriminalized mj at least around Seattle. Washington State is attempting to pass a new Initiative that make it legal to purchase and carry, but they focus on giving out a DUI if you have more than 5mg/g or something like that in your system of active THC... which involved a blood test to find, so I'm not sure if that's going to follow through.

haha damn, you are going to get some nice bud off of veging for a month.
