I figured I'd take some more pictures tonight. Although very little has changed, it's nice to look at the shiny-plant.

Some of the group.





Some individual close ups.












Anyways, they are stinky as hell. I've just been dealing with the smell by cooling the room with an air conditioner. When the plants stay around ~77*F, the smell seems to be less noticeable than when they are sweating in the 85*F+ heat. Also, the air circulation helps too.

I also took an extreme close up for those interested: OH-MY-GOD-BIG!http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v374/sockington/tcc/gardencure/july5/OH-MY-GOD-BIG.jpg

looks good bro, what day of flowering are the pictures from, and is all the browning leaves normal?
yea when the plants have flowered and almost ready to harvest
what you want to do is flush them with plain water for about 2 weeks "optional but thts my personall preference"and this helps rid the plant of chemicals from the ferts and gives you better tasting buds. however this introduces a nutrient defficiancy and and the roots cant absorb nutrients so the plant will start to use stored nutes from the fan leaves witch you see are dead cause the plant used up the stored nutrients.so yes its normal for the leaves to look like that at harvest if you flush witch im sure is what he did.

Jethro, how difficult is LST?
good question? i wana do it lyk the way u done it jethro came awt real nice ye
Low Stress Training isnt very hard but it takes patience cuase you have to slowly get the branches to grow your way. alot of the new growers try to grow them the way they want to fast and sometimes break stems or even block nutrients from bending a branch too much. also lst is best done when the plant is about 3 or 4weeks old so the stalk can be trained with out being broken easily and also the branch is more plyable then when its older and more mature and the branch gets thicker and way stronger.also when you tie the strings or w/e you use to tight it could cut cirrculation off on the plant.

Wow that looks super tasty. I have to say I am completely in awe of how well your grow turned out. I'm guessing you are a Tull fan? One of my best friends absolutely loves them, he would blow Ian if he had the chance...it's actually pretty funny.

I can't believe that is working with those. I have a 2ft growlight tube and 2 of those 14w cfl within an inch and one of my seedlings looked like it was dying from lack of light...tips turned yellow, I put it outside and they are coming back but slow. I just don't want to chuck em cuz they are blue mystic. The chipmunks dug em up a few times. I started with 7, now I have 4....one isn't gonna make it but the other 3 are stunted and have mini sets of leaves...like a bonsai pot plant. They are a month and a half old and only 7 inches tall.

Yep Johnny is right, lots of times when you are getting near harvest time the leaves turn brown....all the nutes are being used up, it's all good.
