Veg cabinet is getting forested I've topped them twice and will prob have to trim agian before they get moved over. Working on when to start and move stuff around with my limited space. Flowers are starting to show some nice trichomes and are very pungent when you brush against them.

Found a friend that has a white balance lens cap and it really does the trick on setting the white balance in such a harsh lighting enviorment, as far as photography goes anyways. New pics to come tonight along with some info on time in, estimated time left, temps, and nute info.

Looks good.
Nice full leaves.

I don't know much about photography but I'm loving the shots, the leaves have a nice heartwarming attitude to them.
How about some info on size?

And was this the original Shishka, or is this Shishkaberry? I forget.

Well after talking with the dispensery I believe it to be straight Shishka but she sounded as if she could be confused. I know I have two beans from another dispensery that are Shiskaberry as well as 4 of a that they call Pine-a-Hash(pine apple X Nepalese Hash), I found it to have a nice high although the pictures of the plant seemed to be busy and I would prefer something that grows longer colas. As I can top and grow my max of 4 in my space each with 2 colas a piece or atleast that is my goal eventually, unless I switch to a screen this next grow we shall see.

They are definetly comming along as one is already showing quite a few orange hairs as it is a few days older than the rest that aren't showing hardly any. Which leaves me in a hard spot do I start flushing for the finishing plant or continue to feed and expect it to be harsh? I plan on switching the rez out tonight and am going to step down to the 'ripen' stage in the GH keep it simple recirculating program.

Sorry for no responding or throwing up pics as I have been really down and out this last week or so. As of today they should be 7 weeks into flower and I was going to start flushing during the week of 8/9 and 8/16 but with one looking like it is going to be an early finisher I wondered what everyones thoughts were. Pics to come agian sorry for the delay as it won't be till later I can throw them up. I know I know...how red are they and how many are there precentage wise ..in other words SHOW US!

4 will work I imagine :) They just seem to fit better when there are two as the line up in the cabinet V's toward the narrowest part so that I can distrubite more plants in the deepest space (i.e. left to right)

I did get ahold of her and she swears that is is Shishka :)
Good thing I kept a mother I think after another run or two I'll break out the pine a hash.

Dude do not let go of the shishka..
Keep one clone of each pheno, will be very useful for a breeding project down the line.

What sucks is at the moment I have limited space for mothers but I have kept the strongest appearing pheno, it really took off and the 1st photo above is over her. There was another pheno that really branched out and then when I super cropped it in the veg state it really sprouted out (the 4th pic in is a shot of some of the little stuff). Although the middle female is doing extremely well I thought also pic of it would be 5 and 7th pics. The 6th pic in is a cropped pic of a lower bud on the one I think that is going to finnish before the other two.

I cut back the nute schedule this last water change to 540 ppm 5.6-5.8 PH and they still seem putting on weight :)

So how am I doing for my first real grow?
Small, puny, underweight?
I'm personally getting anxious and doing a decent job of holding myself back as I want to cultivate the best possible medicine I can for myself.
The pictures don't show how nicely covered they are in trichomes so I'll try and zoom in and crop it see if that is better. Well I kinda mess around and got it to brighten up so we can see the tric's better as i don't have micro lens.

Well tried alittle different tactic with the camera. Looking good?
The sixth picture in is actually of the stem that is bent over past 90 degree's, it is pretty much toward the center and a bit to the right. It is amazing how much I was able to pull it down and ofcourse it has fought me every step of the way.

Gonna start a flush tonight or tomarrow for the plant on thefar left is all almost completely covered in cloudy trichomes with a few starting to turn amber. I"ve been running the nutes cut back to 540 according to the GH 'ripen' recirculating keep it simple program.

Starting to get more and more excited.

Thanks, I've had tons of fun building it.

Going to upgrade the flowering container after these finish up before I through some more ladies in there.
Thought I would throw up some cropped in pics of the girl I think is going to finish first, as she was the first to pop from seed.
Oh, and the one with the black background was an experiment that I would do more of with a tighter mask if ppl like them.

I like it, but it needs less sharp edges and more smoothing out. Work on it and you'll have a nice trick up your sleeve.

Everything looks amazing for a first grow, and honestly it looks like you've been doing it a while.
Do you illuminate stray buds that grew past the light, or let them develop in darkness?

Looks grand!
