Harvest night - Pure joy, or hidden sadness?

My lights come on in about an hour, and tonight is the night for the first of my 7 girls.

This is my first real indoor grow, and it's a bittersweet feeling, knowing I am about to end the cycle for this girl.

I've never had any problems taking the axe to my outdoor plants, but I've become attached to these!

Separation anxiety!!

I was recently telling my old lady that we get these plants as healthy as possible in order to give them the best death possible.

I always remind myself of that when they start to yellow off during flower. I always want to give them some food, but have to remember....they are in the process of dying (for me:)

Congratulations on getting through flower. ENJOY, I'm sure you deserve it.

Thanks guys.

You have no idea what a wild ride this has been. I had to move inside when I moved to the Mojave because apparently even though weed is legal to grow for patients in California... growing outside, even in the middle of the desert, is frowned up on this establishment.

I figured moving inside would end my headaches with wildlife, unpredictable weather, etc... but 3 weeks into flower and tell me how the hell I get caterpillars INSIDE? I have my central a/c duct venting straight into my tent and the only thing I can figure is a moth got in through the vent before I was smart enough to screen it off.

Fighting caterpillars is 2 weeks of hell and anxiety! Thankfully I caught them the first day they hit, and thanks to early detection and a good round of BT, the problem never got very far... thank god. Didn't lose a single bud (that I have seen) to them, and they really only messed up a few bottom fan leaves. I think I got lucky and literally caught them the day they hatched because I found about 20 of them hiding under a single leaf blade that was overlapping itself.

I nearly shit myself when I saw that!

I found one or two every couple of days for about a week or two after that, but I think they were just late hatchers, and they didn't get very far before they were dealt with in the most inhumane ways possible.

Suffice to say I didn't think I would make it all the way to flower on numerous occasions, lol.
