yeaa i am out of smoke.. i checked the trichs yesterday tho and it was at 30% amber.. idk. i might just harvest the branches that look done tomorrow.. and wait another day on the others..

ughh. idk. im very indecisive.. lol. i might wait a few more days... idk. hahaha. ughhh cant make up my mind!!!!!!

Take a little piece now and harvest in a couple of days. Looking good either way.

ok guys..... well i was looking at the plant.. and i said fuck it..... i've waited 8 weeks for it to flower.... wats a few more days or a week... lol. (told ya i was REALLY indecisive.. lmao) soo i turned the lights back on.. and will leave it flowering for a few more days.. to a week at te most.. i dont wanna wait 8 weeks.. an dfuck it all up and harvest early because I couldnt wait a few more days.... lol. jsut thought i'd let every1 know.

Nice! That's the advice I've gotten was wait till you think they are done and take them a week or two longer. My buddy that I helped with his grows before I got into it myself had some itchy clipper fingers and you could tell that if he would have waited a week or two they would have been perfect.

trust me its well worth letting them go, i learnt that for letting one off my snow white flower for 10.5 weeks!!! just pick a couple colas to see you through a couple weeks more and leave her alone, i also read somewher that some dude starves his plants of water for over a week and then they pump out lots of resin maybe try that CHB, buds would dry out damn fast aswell

and the saying when you think they are ready let them go for 2 more weeks is very very true

thanks guys.. yeaa im very bad wen it gets really close like this.. hahaha. i jsut want to harvest it sooo bad.. even wen i know its better to wait.. i just cant help it!! lol. but i will give her sum more time... about a week.. adn wow.. i've never heard of letting them go a week without water!! i was planning on letting her go like 4 days without water.. maybe 5.. im scared to wait a week. lol. and im also gonna give her 24-48 hrs of darkness.. adn see if that will help resin production. =)

was that 300w cfl all the way? Dual spec?

yup yup. i actually think it might have been a lil more.. like 350 maybe? i had about 300.. and added 2 more cfl' during flowering. adn yes im runnin dual specs.. it seems to help alot. and keep my leaves green(er) and workds great at the very end of flowering cuz the blu elight in the spectrum helps with resin production towards the end. =)

Seriously? Thats mad! My friends got 725w CFL coming, hes on 425 atm, 300 Dual 125 Red. Your plants look amazing for CFL, What nutes are you using if any? And what Litre Pots are they in?

This is a White Widow right? What breeder? Anyway awesome looking plant. I'm guessing a qp.

Sorry, my bad. I see on the first page it's Nirvana.. She looks ready!

Damn that looks good, I'm jealous

That's a solid yield for CFL's bro.. ever thought of lollipopping them for extra thickness on the main colas?
+Rep!

lookin nice and ready to me, but whats a few more days? like you said youve gone 8 weeks why not 9? lol i forgot how long my plant was at and chopped her at 81 days... 11.5 weeks lol ... and i tried to starve her of water for like 5 days and i did notice it got a couple more trichs here and there. and after only a day and a half of being spread out in a box ( not hung just laying there, i roll them around periodically ) they're about ready to be jarred up and start the curing process, Ive got a sample nug from a week ago that i jarred and its been almost 5 days in the jar and its pretty good wetness wise, and i can almost smell the fruity smell again, very faint but its there. cant wait to here what you get off her!!

damn!! 725!? for how many plants? and r u talking about the "Actual" wattage or the comparison wattage? cuz a 23 watt bulb is 23 watts.. and then they have comparison watts as well.. the 23 watt is 100 watt comparison i believe.. soo do u mean the actual wattage or comparison one? mine ix 300-350 ACTUAL wattage.. meaning i have like 10 bulbs. just checkin.. cuz thats the highest CFL wattage i've ever heard! lol. thats crazy!

and for nutes.. well i dont use any durin veg.. my plants never seem to need any.. and during flowering. i use schultz all purpose plant food (10-15-10) and it seems to work for me.. its a really cheap brand.. like 4 bucks for a bottle. lol. but it works for me... i start the seeds off in these lil tiny pots.. idk the size.. then after a week or so..i stick them in 1.29 L pots... and my last plant flowering in about a 4 gallong bucket.. and this plant is in a 5 gallon "paint" bucket. =)

damn man!! 11.5 weeks!! hahaha thats fuckin crazyyyy. yea ima try to be patient... honestly its just more or less this one bud on the side of the plant that still has alotta white hairs.. thats teh one im waitin for.. the rest of the plant looks fine.. it needs to hurry the fuck up. lol.

and yea im not watering anymore until i harvest.. soo she will go about 3-4 days without water.. adn that should deff speed up the dryin procees. =)

yeaa i LOVE the smell of this stuff.. a very "different" smell. but in a good way. and yeaa i know i cant wait for the final weight!!! XD

ok guys... well i've decided to let her go 1 more day.. well.. 2day.. and then 2night wen the lights go out.. they're goin out for good. =) and i will leave them in darkness for 36 hours.. and will harvest them on Friday morning. =) i want to plan ahead... cuz i know the buds will do wuite a bit of maturing during the day 1/2 of darkness.. they tend to grow a lil with 12 hrs of darkness... sooo im sure the 36 hrs. will be good for them. jsut lettin u guys know.

and PS** I decided to germinate a Pineapple Express seed... and a Blue Venom (BlueBerry x White Widow) seed today.. and that will be my next grow... im not sure what im gonna do with the super skunk i have growing... i might try to see if my mom will let me grow that as well... but if not. i'll pu tit oustside somewhere... im jsut really anxious to start the pineapple express... i cant wait!!!

I will let u all know once i start the new journal. =)

Just as a forwarning on the 36 hours of dark. I left mine for like 48 hours my first grow and the plants all started collapsing. I was still giivng them water but without the light they loose their rigidity, just something to keep in mind. I'll be watching for that journal link, hope the PE germs well 4 u.
