Hey everyone! I just started my profile today but my best friend has had one for a few months now. We have done a bagseed grow and are planning on starting a white berry grow in the near future. What are all your thoughts on white berry and what advice do you have on a solid closet grow (we are planning to make a grow box)

Hey Buddy! Your bud is lookin pretty nice! Im not an expert by any means but i would probably give it more time. It gains the bulk of its weight in the last stages of flowering!

you have to look at the trichomes with a microscope, to tell, and also to get good smoke the best time to harvest her. she looks beautiful.

hps is better for the flowering stage. you could use it through the whole i suppose. i suggest a metal halide MH for the vegetative stage and for flowering the HPS

You can just buy a MH conv bulb for the vegetative stage. I mean you can use the HPS for the whole grow. For better yields, and denser budds i suggest starting with MH and switching to HPS.
for info on when to harvest i found subcools "amber alert" thred extremly helpful ... lets you know how harvesting at different stages of trichome devlopment (based on trichome color) will effect the high

Hi, I have a small grow room with about 45 plants they are 42 days from when I first put them in soil. Thaey are all about 2 ft and i want to put them in flower and expect to give them 12/12 from today forward. I want to clone but I am waiting until I can distinguish the male from the female plants. Is that right? I have three lights a 1000 HPS and 2 600 HPS a humidifyer, three oscillating fans and an intake and outtake fans to circulate the air. The plants all look very healthy so far.

sounds good. you should start a grow journal and put some pictures up. keep people posted and they can help you as you go along. if you need it.

Well....you could wait until you sex the plants, I wouldn't, let me explain. I took 40 clones that way once, it took me about 3 months just to get them ready to go to flowering, I would have been better off to start over with seeds as far as the amount of time it took. It also took a generation or 2 to get all of the abnormalaties out of the strain.
You actually have a couple of choices to make at this point. Folks that have done this for a lot longer than I have will tell you to take 2 clones from each plant and root them. Once they have roots flower the clones, keep the originals and develope them as mother plants by cutting the growing tips back and leaving them in Vegetative light. This is the correct way to do it.
The other choice is one I have done many times, ol DirtBagBrian did it this way for 5 years, never ran out of weed. Take 2 clones from each plant, mark them as to which plant you took them from and be sure to label them individually, trust me on that one, then go ahead and put the originals in flowering light. 2 to 4 weeks later you will know the sex of all of your plants, get rid of all the males, save a few of your clones for mothers, or take two clones from each of the female plants and send them on.
The second way is actually what I did with most of the strains I am running now, it takes about a month longer this way to get to perpetual harvest, you will have smoke able bud about 4 weeks sooner.
Mr.HowardMarksJournal chronicles the proper way.

You need about 6-12 cfl's throughout your grow. i have 6 100 watt daylight cfl's. now remember to switch your cfl's to the softwhite red spectrum for flowering.
