Hey guys my Great White Shark from GHS is day 47 in flower and about 2 weeks from harvest trichs are still clear but should turn milky with a touch of amber by the end of 2 weeks (anyone know if thats possible in 2 weeks or do they take longer to change) pistils are just about 50% redish.

Do you have a journal? I'd really love to see how you raised that beautiful young lady into a woman. If you don't have a journal up could you at least give us some details like lighting, medium, methods, nutes, etc? Just go with your gut as to when it's ready? Your estimate is correct when comparing to GHS's posted flower time.

I did start a journal but unfortunately didn't keep it up to date very often https://www.rollitup.org/cfl-growing/453706-first-grow-indoor-cfl-great.html although disregard the equipment list

My equipment:
- 10L pot (roughly 2 gallons)
- debco organic soil
- pearlite
- Bat Guano used for last third of veg and all of flowering
- timers
- extension cords
- 2 x 24w 6500k bulbs for veg = 48w (3339 lumens)
- 6 x 24w 2700k bulbs for flower = 144w (10008 lumens)
- 3 x light sockets
- 3 x y splitters
- ph down

since my flowering lighting isn't as much as i would hope i sometimes take my girl outside on sunny days and let her enjoy nature (i know this isn't recommended but my garden is fairly clean and im always sure to keep her clear of any other plants)

sorry thought i was gonna take longer but i found some time to do it now.

i opened my box this morning and all my fan leaves were drooping down as if i hadn't watered for a week. i know yellowing is part of the ripening phase and ive had some turn on me but they werent droopy like this and still green

looking really good, i have one question for you.

how tall is she? she looks about 2 ft from the pics if im right is there a reason you kept it so short? im just curious because i plan on starting a CFL grow soon and was hoping to grow mine to around 4-5 ft in a 6ft tall box


thanks
Matt

she is roughly 1.5 feet and the reason i kept her so short is because my grow box is about 2.(something) feet tall and to accommodate her and lighting it was a must to keep her at this height. i would have loved to grow her to her fullest potential but unfortunately my current circumstances won't allow me to do so, (in my teens and still living at home) thanks for the comment i wish you and your plants the very best

She looks great and it's nice to see what even just a few watts of CFL's and a lot of love can do. That little lady is as pretty as a picture.
I got underwear as old as you are kid but will certainly look to you for guidance on CFL's. I am hoping to do as well on my new grow. Nice job kiddo!!!!
:peace:
