Thanks guys. Yea I cut some more of the leaves on the clones. They are looking fine right now. Still nice and green and remaining vigorous.

Day 37: Just another pic update. They have gotten huge. I'll probably switch to 12/12 tomorrow.

Ya looking amazing thats a great idea to switch to 12 12 cause they are gonna most likely almost double in size before they are done. Cause most strains are a month and a half or more to bud . Thats another almost 2 months of growing to do lol !#@% HUGE ! Have any shown sex yet, being soo far along 37 days they should of .

I changed the MH bulb out with the HPS today. I noticed the leaf issues on the front left White Widow have returned and spread a little more. Hopefully its not serious yet. I flushed them with clearex and water to try and clear out any built up salts.

My electonic PH/TDS meter isn't calibrating for some reason. I can see that its a little off. I may need to buy a new electrode for it.

The lights just went off an hour ago at 8pm, set to come back on at 8am. Flowering has begun. :hump:

Day 39 (Flowering Day 2): The side colas on the white widows are kinda twisting a little. The rest of the plant also seems a little limp. I hope it is just underwatering, since I flushed them last nite, so I didn't feed them that long this morning. Also they endured their first night with the light off, so that could be a factor as well.

Humidity rose to about 71% or more overnight, so I had to keep the exhaust fan running. I may need to use another fan to bring fresh air in through the bottom too, so that it can replace the humid air with dryer air.

I can smell that sweet aroma on my arms after examining the leaves and colas just now. I could bottle that aroma and sell it.

They can take upto 4 weeks to show the first flower on WD.Iv got one flowering at the moment and its been on 12/12 for 9 weeks now another week or so till i will be drying her out.WD is the slowest strain i have ever grown.

Thanks for this Oot dude. they're from sensi seeds and the pack claimed 55-65 days flowering but figured they may say this cos in optimum growing conditions (and prob hydro too) it may take that time. no bothered tho. just means i'll have a staggered harvest...that's fine by me!!!!lol

Day 43: (Day 5 Flowering) They are getting tall as hell. Im having to move the light pretty much every day. The white Diesel is getting shut out of the light by the big guys in the closet. Not like I didn't see that coming though, so I added a light below the canopy. Right now its a 400W CFL full spectrum, but it looks a little cooler. I will see if I cant find another 400W CFL warm on ebay.

Day 45 (Day 7 Flowering): They have continued to spread out and fill up the whole closet. I really wish they had more room, and weren't bunched up against each other like that. There are a ton of side branches though, that will probably make some nice colas.

So the only non-feminised plants, the Sweet Purple are not showing their sex as prominently as the White Widows. Ive included a closeup of on of them to see if you guys can lend your opinions. I still think theyre female, I coulda sworn I saw a small hair on one of the nodes a while back. Its so hard to reach back to where they are right now and check them more thoroughly.

Day 50: (Day 12 Flowering): They are looking very mature now. Unfortunately one of the Sweet Purples was in fact a male (it deceived me at first), so I chopped it down. I'm gonna cut that section of the rockwool off, so that I can slide the slab to the right a little more. It should be fine, the neighboring plant to it is that crappy White Diesel, so if the surgery has any adverse affects, it will most likely be on it. Im not worried.

I can't wait for them to start full on flowering. Im ready to take some bud shots :weed:

Day 64 (Day 26 Flowering) - The closet is overgrown with colas right now. Im thinking about cutting a few inches off the table legs, so that I can lower them all a bit. Right now, I can barely reach the highest cola in the closet, much less take pics - which is why I haven't posted many lately. Lots of buds starting to form.
