Damn. I need to get some more pics, I think I'm gonna post more tomorrow. My friend looked at them and said the one in the back over the lights exhaust hole is gonna be ready in 2 and a half weeks! :D

I would LOVE to raise the light more, you have no idea. The light is as high as I can physically get it in my room :( I have bent and broken so much of my plants trying to keep them from burning :( But thanks for the just right comment :D

Just took pics, but have christmas things to do today, so won't be posting them yet. I am VERY excited though! I put spiders in there a while ago and never knew if they stayed or left. Today while checking my buds, I saw a spider silk thread coming from the light down to one of the buds!!! I'm very glad to know they are still there! I hope the couple of fruit flys in my room have been keeping them healthy. I havent been seeing anymore lately! :D

Here they are! I'm gonna take pics today while these upload. The flowers BOOMED it is insane, some of the popcorn buds quadrupled in size in like 3 days. Some of the ones directly under the light are just amazing, I am so excited, I can't wait!!!!! I just used this super bloom stuff for the last 2 waterings, now I am going into flushing. I think I am just gonna do do heavy tap water watering for leeching for now, then gonna get some of the stuff just for flushing to make it work better.

There is a pic of my fan in the flowering room to show it. Then I have a fan on the floor that isnt pictured, I'll get that with the next set. These are from 3 days ago, then gonna have some from today to show the boost in growth from just 3 or 4 days, can't remember exactly tbh.

The plant directly in front of the fan has a little branch that grew from the very bottom and for like 2 weeks just kept stretching and getting beaten shitless while it tried tog et enough light. It lost all of its leaves except for the very last ones at the tip and then... started flowering! It's a little slugger and its amazing the beating it takes from the fan, every single rotation it gets half wrapped around the plant, then falls back again, day in and day out, I am surprised the stem isnt as thick as my arm!

Here is the second set. I had to pin up a string on my ceiling to help support a few buds, but mostly it looks like they are keeping themselves, and each other up in the spots it may normally be an issue. I start flushing tomorrow! Wish me luck! :DDSCF0004.jpgDSCF0017.jpgDSCF0015.jpgDSCF0023.jpgDSCF0019.jpgDSCF0001.jpgDSCF0010.jpgDSCF0024.jpgDSCF0025.jpgDSCF0021.jpgDSCF0016.jpgDSCF0014.jpgDSCF0002.jpgDSCF0008.jpgDSCF0009.jpgDSCF0012.jpgDSCF0018.jpgDSCF0006.jpgDSCF0003.jpgDSCF0007.jpgDSCF0011.jpgDSCF0020.jpgDSCF0005.jpgDSCF0022.jpgDSCF0013.jpg

Did you ever find my grow? There are some new pics up now.. What size gallon pots do you have? M plants are 4 feet tall in 2 gallon pots and all the leaves are going yellow.. I've fednit a bunch and the only thing I caan think of is that I needs to transplant butni don't want to stress the plant and have it turn hermie..

How many weeks are you in to flowering? And is this a medical grow??. I'm trying to save up some money and move to Colorado and grow medically and I'd like some input on what I would need to do.

It is indeed a medical grow :D Michigans the state. Well, Idk about Colorado but in MI just about any chronic illness qualifies you, but like no normal docs actually do it. So you get the records from those docs, then bring them to a guy just for the medical cards. It's kinda shifty overall but that's a plus imo. It's more of a money thing in the end. My card costed $400 for the doc visit and then the states fee. Not to mention transit, the normal doc visits. It is mostly a bunch of expensive hoops. Then the money to grow... lol. Or you can be a caregiver and grow for someone who can't. You can only charge cost, but considering medical grade shit takes 100+ hours per harvest (I'm at least 150 hours in on mine...) you can still charge a pretty penny.

Pot size is 5-gallons, but I couldn't find the normal 5 gallons like i have in the back left at the gardening shop, so I had to buy 5 gallon horse troths. Making drainage holes SUCKED had to use a nail and a knife.

For stress I always talk suuuuper nice to my plant's and they seem to make it through just about everything, I even wrote an article for the general mj forum on here about being nice to plants lol . I saw its flowering, so I wouldn't worry to much, just go with what you have and next time transplant a few days before starting flowering. When mine are done I'm gonna transplant the ones in veg to the 5 gallon pots and put them into flower 3 days later. Maybe take some clones, if my damn roommate ever brings back my dome!!! >:0 lol

Btw, I posted on your/your friends grow thread.

I tried my best to show the entire room but its difficult with a camera :(. I just super cropped the plants in veg. I split open one of there stems, but supposedly this is fine it still worried me though. I got some flushing solution to make flushing faster since one of the plants is gonna be ready in a few days and I just started flushing. It takes FOREVER all I have is a turkey baster and I cant make a siphon because the plants are already as low on the ground as is possible. My roommate whos been giving me tips along the way has this terrible habit of touching them whenever he comes in and always messes them up so one of the colas is leaning when it had not been before >< I finally was just like "okay, new rule, look, don't touch." I aske dhim about if it hurt the tricomes and hes like "ya, but its not a big deal" then I asked if it will stop the thc prodction in the tricomes hes f'ing with and hes like "ya, but don't worry about it, its only if you wanna sell it that its a big deal" and at that point im like "ya, im not selling it, but i don't want it f'ed up I love dank weed as much as the enxt guy, why would I not want to worry about you degrading my 130 hours of hard work for no other reason than you cant keep your hands to yourself???" so hopefully he will stop. They grew into this kinda messed up symbiotic relationship holding themselves up and he just pushes them every which way and doesnt help put them back up. Everytime I go in after him i gotta readjust the plants -.-

Anyway, close to harvest, and super excited! My roommates thinks im only going to get like an oz or 2 off each plant if im lucky. I think hes been wrong about every single piece of advice hes given me "dont use nutes, they dont need them" my plants almost died. "you can top a bud, it totally works" not it doesnt and now i have like 20 f'ed up buds.

Sorry, im just ranting now, they are like my children and it pisses me off that he comes in and f's with them when I put so much effort into not disturbing them as humanly possible.

Anyway, close to my first ever harvest! I'm so excited, its all I can think about! My roommate has some dank seeds we are gonna start up, I wanted to do clones but he seems incapable of remembering anything such as bringing back my f'ing dome and bringing his lights over. Every time he goes home something magically comes up to where he was just unable to walk 30 feet into his room at his parents and grab anything at all. Ugh, sorry, I'm just in a generally angry mood atm, not 100% positive why, normally this kind of thing wouldnt make me sup upset, It's just been a long time, I spent money on a good dome and instead I'm stuck gambling on seeds.
