damn merchant not bad at all for a first timer.. you clearly did your homework before planting those beans..keep the thumbs green my man, your doing great
Lol I had to do a double take on this =P

Did you have to do any training to get the plant to surround the light like that, or was she just tryin to stay away from the heat? I've got my final 4 bagseed clones I don't really wanna waste room in my scrog with LSD/Brainstorm, so was wondering If I could make it work in my cabinet somehow. They're lst'd and fimmed like a mofo. I might even top some of the taller tops and send them out in the wild.

You said you used Fox farm, is that just the soil or did you have the nutes too? I'm probably gonna pick up the FF trio tomorrow.

I had to LST them and drop the lights down in between the colas. Once the branches were strong enough to stay on their own I untied it. Now the structure of the plant is strong enough to keep it like that. I just used cheap nutrients. Some miracle grow and also super bloom. I only veg'd for a few weeks so the grow wasn't that long really.

I flushed today and will have an update tomorrow at 8 weeks of flower.

Flower Day 56 - Week 8

Well everything is looking great to be honest. New growth keeps shooting out everywhere though so I guess I'm not going to harvest. I even have new pistils that come out every day and shoot out. So she will just continue to sit in there and cook. Hopefully she is ready this year! lol

your buds are going to shrink about 80% of its wet weight IF its dried right, more when people do it wrong...that nug in your hang probaly weighed 10 g's when it was alive

if you really want to man, you can chop one of your branches. it will speed up the rest of the plant and you can dry and cure the branch and get an idea of what the rest will be like...if you want to man, i just really want you to wait it out. that thing is beautifull :wink:

nice bro :clap: every time you post pics it gets better! what nutes are you using? and are you giving them full strength? this might sound crazy to you but allll those hairs are still white. you can start pushing her a little bit at a time. im guessing you have about a month left. i would feed her every watering at full strength (and then some depending on what your using now) shes frosty as fuck man. but you can still blow them fucking buds up. and dont worry, normally the buds start to swell the last 2-3 weeks of flowering...so i say add to it while you can bro!!! good luck man...

let me know what your using man, sometimes if i get alot of yellowing leaves when theres still time left, i will add some veg nutes (mg plant food lol it works man) with my full strength flower nutes (Canna). it really helps out man.

For real, Meta. Every other forum I'm apart of is full of cocky ass holes.... like everyone knows everything. But here, we're all doing our own thing...getting our own results. but we all want the best for our ladies so much that we take criticism and advice constructively. Plus, you know we're all blazedddd when we get on here. lol!

Merchant - you're almost there!!! she looks amazing and tasty...Cant wait to hear the report
