I sprouted them (3) with 1 Sunleaves Sunrise TT96 high output tube. As they got larger, I added my other TT96, and I used those to veg. I have vegged before with just the CFLs with similar results. I just find it easier to use the tubes. When I am ready to start budding, I add my CFLs. I use GE 42 watt Helicals, 150 watt equiv. I used a total of 8 for this grow, plus I keep the tubes on too.

I flushed it real good 2 weeks ago. I thought I was less than a week to harvest, but when I looked at these pics I was thinking that they need some more time, maybe 2 weeks, so I gave them 1 last watering with just distilled water.

Going to harvest tomorrow morning before the lights come on. The very top cola looks like it could use a little more time but the rest of it is ready to come up! I'm thinking at least 2 oz. More pics tomorrow.

It sure smells good. I wish I could smoke it, but my job doesn't allow it, but my wife will appreciate it.

I haven't been able to smoke for 14 years, but I love the smell. My wife gets some real bad migranes and it helps her a lot. I do miss it and look forward to when I can once again smoke my own.

Harvested this morning. Clipped off all the leaves I could get to. It's hanging upsidedown for at least two weeks to dry. Then cure. If you're curious, like I was, it weighs exactly 150 grams right now. It feels pretty wet. Smells great and my hands are sticky as hell.

dude you might want to cut that sugar leaf off now, if you dont, when you goto manicure the bud you'll have to pull back each leaf that has now attached itself to the bud. look at my sig and how i trimmed mine before i hung it... the leaves if big enough can trap the moisture behind it. but thats just how i do it. good grow!!!
oh yea, i think if you leave it hanging for 2 weeks it will be crisp, my plant i just cut ( in my sig ) is similar to size as yours, and it only took 3 days hanging, and is now in a jar.

I trimmed it up pretty good before I hung it up. Those pics were taken right after I cut it down. It was pretty wet when I chopped it. I just watered it a week ago. I usually hang them for about a week, but this one was wetter, so it might take longer. It will be done when it is done, I'm in no hurry. I will post more pics when I take it down and manicure it.

I lost track of how long I vegged this one. It was like 3 or four weeks. I grew it in Fox Farms Ocean, and used FF Grow Big while vegging, very low concentrate, and FF Bloom for flowering.
