They're annoyingly small I must say. I was restricted by tent size before I upgraded so flowered these almost immediatly.Hey ganga whats the finish height of your beautifull ladys.
The Big Bang was about 50cm, CSS about 42cm, GLP about 38cm, The Doctor about 30cm and the bonsai WWxBB is a tiny 22cm.

UPDATE: Day 18 since popping through soil
Coming along nicely. Attempted to FIM the plants today. FIMed them all except the Blue Cheese and the Tutankhamon...I'll give them another day to progress a lil further. Ive done a lot of LST, Ive topped once, but Ive never tried to FIM...so this should be interesting. For the most part it seemed good, but I did wang 3 of em up a lil. I was a lil too rough and lopped/broke of one of the tiny little fan leaves to be. Shouldn't be an issue in the long run...will just be a lil asymmetrical for a while I suspect. Once they recover from the FIM cut, they're really gonna start powering along. Exciting.

I have grown the kushberry before, if you want I can dig some bud porn up on it? My phenotype was very good, was definitely the sativa dominant phenotype. Think I let it go for 12 weeks indoor. Prob could have chopped at 10 but those extra 2 weeks definitely got me the yield I was looking for. Mine had a very fruity sweet smell with the atypical long main colas of a sativa. Was a winner minus the long flower time.

heres an outdoor in veg one, just so you can see what my phenotype looked like. As you can see from the pics, she probably could have gone even longer. When I harvested she was very stoney weed. Great uplighting high, very social talkative weed, great to smoke with friends and converse, I cured it a month before smoking any and it was very smooth, piney on the inhale, fruity sweet on the exhale. Indoor I vegged for a month in a 3 gallon smart pot, got 4.5 ozs. Outdoor I did it and got a solid pound out of a 15 squat pot.

Hey there, I got a quick question for you. What brand is your tent? and what is its size in feet if you happen to know? I am considering a tent in my future, and saw your running a 1000 watter and a tent so figured you would be a good person to ask. Also, I saw your only using a 450 Cubic/meter fan. I was wondering if you run a fan controller and if so what speed does your fan usually stay on? I have a much larger fan, but my ambient temps are higher then yours are. Thanks for any help

Ey, the tent is just a crappy non branded tent from Ebay. It was one of the cheaper ones I could find, and its shows. Light leaks galore. Its the last time I cheap out on a tent I can tell you that. So yea, just getting A brand would be a better start lol. The tent is about 4x4 ft according to the specs, but usable area is smaller as the sides get sucked in a bit. And I don't run a fan speed controller...just run it full speed. I've been meaning to get one for a while (just to make it quieter if anything). In my experience, there's only so much you can do with ventilation to control temps in a tent. Ambient temps in the room the tent is in has been much more influential for me.

Yea I was kinda afraid that's what your answer would be lol. I been looking on amazon and found a cheap 5x5x7 for 150. I don't really want light leaks, I mean ya a tent isn't stealth, but its even less stealth if it glows lol. There is never a reason for my landlord to come in my bedroom, so she wouldnt see the tent, but if its glowing and can be seen glowing through the blinds that's gonna be an issue. My fan is a massive 8 inch 800/cubic foot fan, sounds like a flippin fighter jet. My room that the tent in is pretty warm during the day. My apartment doesn't have central ac so the bedroom doesn't get cooled much. Ah to have your cake and eat it to lol.

Yea that's around the price I paid, so I would assume the quality would be similar. I have the same worry as you...glow through the curtains. Ive got it under control now, but it was en effort. So yea, I honestly would recommend spending and extra $100. Peace of mind is priceless, after all.
And I can only imagine how loud that fan of yours is. I thought my tiny (relatively) 450cfm fan was loud.

Oh, and for anyone thats interested, Ive done the final weigh in on the Big Bang.
And it was.... 36.2g.
Gotta say, Im pretty happy with that considering... tis real dense, esp for the 400w.
Tis now in a jar to begin the cure.

Congrats man, will be looking forward to a smoke report!
I am thinking of making my own tent but with insulation board. Still in the processing stage lol. Guess it will depend on my buddy, how much he wants to invest lol. A 4x8 would fit perfectly against my wall...guess we shall see what the future brings!

What did you end up doing to get it under control? I was thinking just panda filming my window lol.

Wow ganga great job good to see what a 400wt can do. cant wait to see what you pull off the 1000wt. Also looking for a smoke report.
happy days bud

I just taped up all the seams, and had to get in there with an iron and iron all the flaps over the zips as they were not sitting flat. Luckily they were ironable...couldn't have done that with my last tent. Still isn't perfect but it'll do. I don't think panda film on the window would be the best idea. Blacking out windows is a dead giveaway that a grow is going on in there.
And yea, I'll definitely be doing a smoke report once its had a sufficient cure. Im looking forward to doing my first smoke report of a known strain.
