I really am thinking I will get a nice harvest off her. The 250 watt on the side of her is making the lower parts of her get covered in light. She is gonna be full of nice size buds (at least I hope so) :twisted:

Hey Tom bro, you grew that in your dorm room? I'm impressed. The yield will be a personal one, which is expected from one plant. Good job bro.

Nah I didn't grow it in a dorm room, I grew it in a cabinet that's in my bedroom of the house I am renting. I hate the rental part because the landlord is a nosy guy and is always stopping by and what not. The box I am growing her in is pictured on the first page. I am going to try and get some new pics in a day or two if I can get the digi camera again. My blackberry pics are just too crummy and don't do the plant justice. Thanks for the comments Kilo, I hope your along for the ride!

along for the ride tom nice plant bro soem of the leaves look alittle curled down have you feed her reently or might want to think about a flush. My leaves were turning yellow and had some black spots and I did a three day flush just helps. I don't man. buds look nice kid keep it up.

becarful with a flush in soil because you dont want to use too much water and make your soil "muddy" flushing in soil is somthing you need to do carfully. Flushing is not always the answer

Thanks for all the comments guys! I have been feeding her just water for the past few days trying to correct the leaves curling under. My soil has a lot of perlite in it so it never really gets muddy. The leaves near the buds are really starting to get frosty and I'm loving it. I am waiting on a digi camera from my sister so I cant take some nice shots of my female. If I can't get the digi camera by tomorrow I'll just take some crappy pics with my cell phone just to show you what's been going on since the last update. Have a great day everyone :hug:

Yo Tom, lookin' good bro. I wouldn't worry too much about the leaf curl; once they get like that they stay like that.

The secret to taking a clear pic is camera stability. All those crystal clear macro shots you see are usually taken with a tripod. If you brace your arm or set the camera down you will get better photos. Try it with your camera phone and you might be surprised. ;-)

I tried taking some more pics with the digi camera and still I am not getting that great of pictures. I hope you guys like what you see, don't be afraid to comment. The last pic is to show how bright my box is with both lights on 8-) Thanks a lot

Yeah I am going to continue to work on taking better pictures. Thanks for the help faux, I really appreciate it. My plant is really starting to fill in though and I am very excited about that. She is 31 days into flowering and my temps have been great. She has a good bit of organic bone meal on top of the soil(6-9-0) and diluted organic budswell(0-7-0) is fed to her through water every couple of days.

Yeah I was hoping to get around 2 - 2.5 ounces off of this girl. I clipped off some of the lower buds and branches just so that the plant can focus on its main bigger colas. I want those 8 inch long buds haha. Thanks for the encouragement faux

Hey man, don't clip off any more side branches. People just do that cuz their horizontal reflectors can't penetrate that far. Your rig is on another level, dig? That's weight bro.

Yeah I feel ya, it's just she was getting a little too wide at the bottom so i figured that a little trim up wouldn't hurt nothing. I'll make sure not to do it anymore though. Thanks for the heads up

Lol I was def thinking about it but the last time I had a plant that got too big I ended up accidentally killing it by bending it too much. Split the plant in two right where it topped it in veg. What a sad day lol

Haha i tried a small zip tie to hold it together but i could just never heal itself. I was so surprised too that it could never pick back and start growing. I believe the stretch has stopped for my girl so hopefully I'll be good on height this time around
