Even with trichomes everywhere, mine doesnt smell as strong as i thought. They produce the most smell when touched, and right before the lights come on. Dont get me wrong, my whole bedroom smells because of my girl, but the most smell comes right after my lights go on. But at 13 days, there wouldnt be much smell. I wouldnt think. Plant is looking great!

I got careless last night when adjusting my lights. I didnt fasten them back up good enough.
Some lights were laying on my plant this morning when I checked. She got a little burnt. One branch, and a few leaves took most of the damage, but looks to be ok. A bud got a bit burnt too.
One seedling got squished, and the other slightly burned.
I'll be more careful from now on.

47 Days Old, 19 Days Flowering
Just figured I would put up a few pics(not the best pics) to show progress.

She's doing pretty good I think. Minus a few burn marks from CFL's being to close.
The small plant is 12 days old, and 12/12 from seed.

I have "Stoners Insurance" ....a second hook that I attach to the pigtail of the chains, so if I screw up on the first hook, the second will limit the drop to 2 or 3 inches

Looking good. She's reachin for those lights and your teasin' her just right.
Subed and REP, looking forward to the results.
Do you have any pictures of your actual setup? I didn't notice anyway, but I could just be high...

Thanks
I'm only using about half my tent right now. I need more light fixtures, but I have 240 watts over her right now.
It may look a bit ghetto right now, but the money I save from not buying smoke will go into making this better. I am going to get a 250 watt hps system probably before this finishes.
The one light will get rid of all the wiring. I only plan to grow 2 plants at a time, and maybe stick a 12/12 from seed in with them.
For now I'm using three 120mm pc fans for intake/outake, and to blow air over the tops of the plants.

I got the tinfoil pie plates as reflectors, but they are painted flat white inside. They do the job. LOL

The buds look perfect for that time. They are filling out very nicely. The more light during flowering the better :)

Keep er' going looking forward to some results :)
Watching them grow is sooooo awesome. I really need to get my seeds going...
 
Thanks man :)

Do the buds look OK for being just over 4 weeks since first pistil?
I think I'll add more light tomorrow. I'm trying to stay around 250 watts.
Yes, everythings looking quiet on point. Your buds are looking nice and healthy and you sound like your on the right track. Cant wait to see the dried bud (:

I just realized that she is 28 days since first pistil. lol
So she is four weeks flowering today, and I got my first set of yellowing leaves.

Yours looks like she's doing great!
I think that ounce I was looking for might be possible.
Good luck!
