the light throw i think depends alot on how high you have it. mines only 8 inches or so from the top of my plants and its also only about 28-30" off the ground. therefore the throw is much smaller but i'm guessing if you had average sized plants and hung your light about 4feet off the ground you'd get a 4x4 throw i'm guessing. someone correct me if i'm wrong. but i like my cooltube cause it does help tremendously with the heat.

NOW
New pics!! i need to know when to start flushing. Its day 40 of flower now. bigbud takes 54-58 days supposedly but i'll be watching the trichs. they are all clear still maybe some cloudy but just some of the hairs are now turning orange.

kinda disappointing seeing the picture with the lighter in it. they looked so much fatter before.

yeah so most of my Cola shots didn't turn out. i suck at holding still in the morning. haha

i'll second that 1.5els is a high guess. gotta remember that these plants only stand 18" tall or so. basically 2 main colas on each and some popcorn buds at the bottom. i'm hoping for 1oz ave. off each plant. which would give me 13oz.

i guess thats just after a few guys said 2ozs per plant but i know thats not happening. My goal was 2ozs total so i think i got there at least.

i'll keep it updated. expect a wet weight in 2-3 weeks.

i stole a bud 2 days ago and smoked some of it yesterday. tasted like ass since i hadn't flushed, quick dried it and also it wasn't cured. but still got the job done!

not sure how old they are there. prolly 3 weeks or so. they are just going to be mothers so i'm not too worried about the actual age of them.

harvesting in one week!!!!

new pics!

Day 59

starting to flush!

50% cloudy 10% amber 40% clear trichs


3 blue mystic and 3 afghan kush onto their 5th nodes already.

You would get alot more crop using less plants (less time if caught) if you used advanced techniques like topping and fimmming

good luck.

Looks good!

I am in a similar situation...I flowered my 8 Hindu Kush babies pretty early just so I could grab a clone or two and get myself a mommy plant. I know everyone says cloning should be done in veg but that's just now how I did it!

My goal is 1 oz and a good mommy plant. Im keeping my fingers crossed!

Also watching this finish out...I wanna see them on chopping day.

Good luck and happy growing!

ITS CHOPPING DAY!

just took them down this morning. here are some pics.

this part is posted in harvesting as well. but figured i could put it here too.
62 days of flowering and this is what i got!

13.3oz wet/stem weight so hopefully get 3-4oz after all is trimmed up better, dry and no stems.

also got a good amount of trimmings/popcorn buds to make hash out of. i personally don't know how yet but a buddy of mine (the only one that knows about the grow) has done it before.

well i guess the only questions i have are: did i trim too much? not enough?

are they too close together on the string?

humidity should be where? 30-40% tops?

There are so many different ways to go about growing. This is a good example of growing in a limited space area. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it come of age. I think the trimming was fine.
