Yeah all you have to do is use Imageshack.us
You don't have to register or anything all you do is upload it and then click the thumb and it will give you a code for the forums down at the bottom. that's how i do it anyway and i haven't had any of my pics taken down or anything. just make sure you don't register or put in bogus info if you do. good luck. Everything's looking good as hell man btw, how much longer before you think she'll be ready to flush??

thanks! im thinking of flushing in a week or two gonna just watch it and decide. what do you guys think? when should i start flushing??

updates 2/9

how does it look guys?? its getting fatter

looking great! I's first grow was the hindu kush in a hydrofarm bucket with a 4 bulb t5 and some flouro tubes on the side. can't wait to check out the harvest pics.

i flushed week 5 and harvested week 7
i wish i had waited an extra week though.
especially using flouros the plants seem to develop a bit slower.
patience is a virtue and it pays off.
trust me

oh i see, nice u can give me advice about this grow then how are my hindus looking to you tho? and how was your smoke? i dont see too many people on here growing hindu. and ya ill probably give them a few weeks. i aint in no rush i want quality buds

they are looking really good, quite meaty for cfls. i really enjoyed the hindu, but as i said i think it would have been much better if i had harvested a week or two later.its a rich smooth smoke if you let it go the full cycle and give it a full 4-5 days drying and a day or two of the jar treatment. i smoked most of it right after taking int out of the paper bags i have them in the last day of drying.
it may not be I favorite strain but hindu kush definately has a special place in I heart. i can almost taste it just thinking about it.

haha i see i see. Thanks man. Yeah right now im thinking of harvesting in about 3 weeks or so. probably gonna flush in the next week or two. but yeah i cant wait to smoke this. my first grow and its not the best but im pretty satisfied!!!

Updates!!! so with the light leak delay right now should be the sixth week. so about 2-3 more too go. im leaning more towards 3. i see some trichs turning amber on one of the colas. but yeah its just starting to. and btw just to refresh some memories. this is a dwc 20k lumen cfl grow. with ff nutes and the powders. using cha ching right now. i also got growzyme too. any questions or comments feel free to fire away!! hows it look guys??

first pic is the trichs starting to amber.
2nd pic just a nice cola
3rd pic is another nice cola
and the fourth is the top right under the lights. i had to lst my plant cuz it got too tall so its like small new colas. gonna let those fatten up of course and yeah my next run im gonna do 8 plants and keep them real short and bushy. my first run i let em stretch too much but now i know why bushy is better. lil xmas trees for the win!!

Hello my HK friend,nice grow
great choice for first grow. you use low lights,saw next grow, if you still plane to play with HK-live plants in longer veg stage and top them once.HK can normaly take more nutrients but for realy taste live them week extra in flowering and lower humdity... Try one Hk in the soil-low extra dolomite...
best wishes from Balkan HK lover...

sup thx man what do you mean by saw next grow?? i see i see thanks for the advice.

when do you think i should start my flush? im planning to flush it soon cuz i see more and more amber pistils. im wondering should i flush when the pistils are half way amber? or what? like whats the signal to flush? the trichs?

wow nice grow man what strain is that and what lights??

flush when 10-15% of the trichromes begin to amber thats when you will get the best flavor and the blest head/body blend. at least in my opinion

i see thanks
