Well thanks! I figure if I can avoid doing something stupid for another 7 weeks, I'll have a harvest sitting in jars curing.

Another couple of days, another sort-of update. Day 78 from seed, day 27 of 12/12. This morning I took a couple of pics of the main stems on the two plants in 3 gallon fabric pots. There is a huge difference in flower progression. The plant with more bud development began flowering 7 to 10 days...

Here's a bit of an update from last night. Day 75 from seed, 24 days since flip. Added the 6 gen II EB strips to the light. Now drawing 500 Watts from the wall with the 10 gen 1 strips and these six running full out. I have dimmed the gen 1 strips to the point where my lux meter is showing...

Today is day 71 from seed, F21. This being my first grow, I'm quite interested in seeing how the buds are developing, and the structure of buds along stems. May have to commandeer the wife's camera and tripod so I can get some nice macro pics instead of generic cell phone pics. Anyway, here's a...

I don't think so. It would have to be pretty damp for there to be actively growing mould on a piece of fabric. (I'm assuming that your tent's humidity is under control.) In my area of Canada's west coast, all the mould I run across seems to be varying shades of green and black, never white.

I'd take it off, give it a good shake outdoors, clean with soap and water, and reinstall after it dries. It's probably just dust that has accumulated from days/weeks/months of solid use. Like a furnace filter, it needs a bit of maintenance. Household dust is primarily dirt, mould spores, skin...

It sounds like you have an interesting setup. How have you determined when to begin vegging new plants? Is it just a matter of letting a previous plant progress to "X" days from seed before germinating a new plant, and then vegging until harvest makes room in the flower tent? I imagine you...

Hey RIU, it's boxing day, hope everyone had an awesome Christmas. Today is day 67 from seed, day 16 of 12/12. I can finally see that all four girls have started flowering, if only barely in one case. Stretch is still underway, Tall girl on the right has added 50% to her height since the flip...

Time for an update. Nine weeks old today, day 63 from seed, starting day 12 of 12/12. Stretch still under way, the girls are 24, 22 and 18 inches tall in the 5, 4, and 3 gallon pots respectively. The two small girls seem to be throwing out pistils this morning, the larger ones are not...

I keep my house plants completely separate from the grow. Weed stays in the shop's grow area. In the house there are: four pineapples growing in the kitchen window (my avatar is a prior pineapple grow), three young windmill palms inside for the winter, one Aloe, and four or five other succulents.

Yeah, I was wondering if they were repackaging seeds. On their website, they are quite vague about the source(s) of their genetics. ________ Another inch of stretch since yesterday. Will definitely have to move a plant out of there within a week. I'll have a 2x2 cab ready by then to move one...

It looks like the impasse may have been broken, Plants are beginning to stretch. The largest girl has added two inches in the past two days. Here's some pics from this morning just before watering. Today is day 58 from seed, day 7 of 12/12.

Yeah, they may be delayed from stress. Three experienced interveinal bleaching in weeks 2-4. Eventually resolved with extra calmag and potassium. Low temps early in the grow may also have caused stress, but temps have been stabilized for several weeks now. Hopefully will see some evidence of...

Yes, at least one may have to come out in a few weeks. I have everything I need in the shop to put together a small grow cabinet that I can move one of the smaller plants into. Can always use it for a mother cab later. I'm thinking that this tent will be more suitable for a two plant scrog...

Thanks! Yeah, I have seen quite a few similar posts. There is a fair amount of hate on Crop King on the web, maybe it's justified, idk. Anyway, had 100% germination, they are all girls, so at least that is good. Anyway, today is officially day 56 by my way of counting (Oct 20, the day they all...

Ah, I see. Nope, no major stretch yet. Had a quick peek at the girls this morning and they seem to be distinctly "praying". Raised the light a bit in case this is indicative of light stress.

Well here are some pics from tonight. Edit. This is after third 12 hour dark cycle. DIY light - 10 Bridgelux EB strips 272 watts output from the driver + 6 screw in lights. I think the chip was saturated, lol. The girls waking up. They're crowded, Fan will be replaced with clamp fans to free...

I was not aware that there was a distinctive look to photos vs. autos. Would you mind explaining the key differences? Lights are off for another three+ hours, I'll have some pics a bit after that.

Well I did flip to 12/12 two days ago. They are on day 54 from sprout now. Will take some pics of the girls late this evening when the lights come on. Have been battling fungus gnats for a while, and have been using mosquito dunks with every watering. Gnat situation is slowly improving.

Huh. Fall of 1974, 13 years old and had a dime bag of leaves and stems. Never got high off it, someone stole my bag of garbage weed the next day, didn't smoke again until 1980.
