So what did you learn, what mistakes did you make and learn from, and could you do better? What upgrades will help you? Lets see a bigger harvest on the next grow.

Didnt do a wet weight. Its really dry in my area(not today though lol) so it shouldnt take to long to dry. Ill know in a few days.



Germate a few seeds because no matter how good of a seed it is, not all will germ maybe 90% and not all germed seeds sprout.

I have had 100% germ on fem seeds, but not all were fem. Could have been genetics, could have been stress, always plant a few extra just incase!

I didnt pack the grow bags big enough because I was trying to fit them in smaller areas so when I went to move them around it created voids in the bags.
I didnt light proof the flowering room good enough in the begining of the flowering so I had balls that formed and actually pollenated a few buds. I have only found 4 seeds in the whole plant bu once I start smokin them Im sure Ill find a few more.
Of course the classic trying buds before they are ready and harvesting just a little to soon.

At least you have more seeds?

The one I just chopped was only 9" when I put it into flowering so Im going to vegg a bit longer on the good seeds. I let the last one I put in get to about 12" before flowering.

Longer Veg time, larger harvest. Just need more light.

I still have a lot to learn, Ive had some issues with my clones and with random "hot spots" in my soil.

I have had good soil turn shitty (Happy Frog) and so have others. I am done with soil!Don't get me wrong, have had great results with soil. Just need to flush once a month in my opionon and check run off PH to make sure it does not get out of control.

I learned a lot about the nutes, PH and LSTing and my tap water is crap lol. I will give way more nutes from now on. Im going to lst all my plants to maximize the light that I have. As well as getting another emergecy blanket because that makes my room really bright.

Brighter the better!

Trim the tiny branches that dont get tall enough to get any light since they wont really bud. Try to keep the canopy somewhat even.

This will focus more of the growth on the top of the plant where its needed....Good!

Ive learned a lot more then just this also. I wouldn't say I have a green thumb so this is kinda a task for me where as it was a piece of cake for my mother who has always had many house plants around

And mainly. Dont sweat the small stuff! I think they can sense the stress LOL


I still need to buy a really good fan for my reflector before spring comes around and the place heats up. I bought a cool mist humidifier, it helps with the temps in my flowering room. I think if I upgrade its going to be a complete tent set up so I can use the reflector and ballast I have for a MH bulb and use the tent for flowering.
I need to get a few more onces before I can justify spending another $400-500 on a tent set up to the misses.

Upgrades in Ventalation and Lights will help triple your harvest for sure!

That clone has really taken off since that photo. I think it just got a little shocked from the transplant into soil. Its already shot up about an 1/2

Im really happy with the quality of the smoke I got. Its really stoney, been smokin to much of it but I havent had anything else so its kinda silly to deprive myself when there is good smoke right there.
The smaller buds are dry enough to rooll up so I put them in a jar. I put the bigger buds in a paper bag to dry a little longer before going into the jars. The bigger buds will smoke but Id like them just a little drier
I weighed everything and it weighed 29 grams. I will probably lose a little bit more after curing but they seemed as dry as the last smoke I bought lol

So I got about an once in all maybe a little more with the couple of buds I sampled along the way.
Im happy and I know Ill get at least an 1.5 onces off the next one that I cut.
Its been flowering for 24 days now.
It stopped stretching after 17 days so by the 40/60 theory I should start check trichs at about day 43
Its nodes are tighter and I LSTed it to get more light to the side branches. I also cut any branches that didnt make it to the light and cut one fan leave that was blocking light. I was still didnt LST it as much as I should.
The one thats been in there 1 week I LSTed down far so some of the side branches are actually higher then the main cola right now. Im sure after its done stretching it will catch up.

I kept a male in veg so I could try toppin. I cut the top 3 days ago and there is more shoots coming off already. They are about 3/16 right now.

Feeling good and smokin good green. I am going to make sure all the big buds cure properly before I smoke them. I havent had cash to buy any decent smoke($350) but I might pick up a once of some brick weed for $50.
