I like to think of it as "dedicated". No, no plants in the sink although I have put them in the tub temporarily at times. I thought about putting a mother plant box in the bedroom but don't want to push it to far with the wife. But if I told her it would keep it a little warmer in there in the winter she would probably go for it. I'll just turn down the thermostat after she goes to bed a couple day's in a row when I'm ready to do it. That way she will be happy I'm doing it. I know how to play the game very well. I figure it was enough to take her cooking stuff out of the closet and whatever cloths were in there when I started to use it to grow in. I'll see if I can find a picture that far back. I did it slow though, a little at a time until it was all out.
You need to save up more clippings before you try to make hash with the ice water method. You need a good amount, at least an ounce. I like to use 2 oz but I have not done it with trim. I did it with some weed I grew outside and used the buds instead. You should try to make some green dragon, have you heard of it? It is something you make and drink it to get high. You could do that with an 1/8 or less. But just like hash it is only as good as the weed you make it with. I have made it but did not drink it. I cooked of all the alcohol to where I could smoke it. It's pretty good. Here's a thread on it.

Hey no problem with the help man. It helps me too. Once you get going and have steady harvests and have weed to smoke you won't be so impatient and will have no problem waiting longer. I have read about taking the tops and leaving the bottoms to ripen more. They say you can get a larger harvest that way. Last time I wanted to keep track of what I got off each plant so I did the whole plant at once. But this time I plan to start with the tops and when I'm done with them I will start on the lower part. I just don't want to leave them in there longer I need the space. My vegging plant are ready to get going. It will be a busy couple weeks to do the transition. Between getting them all trimmed and repot the vegging ones I need to.
Here's some early closet pics and the first plants I had in there. This was after I put the 400 in there. Those 2 flowering are the ones that gave me over 5 oz from the 2 plants. Not to bad for my first indoor grow. Plus I made $1200 from them. And that was wholesale price. It bought me my first 600w set up and then some.
