Hi y'all,
First time for me posting on this forum. Just thought I'd post a few pics of my first grow. Started from seed October 1st. Ladies are just now going through their flushing ready for dry out and cutting.

Any advice or just criticisms would be greatly appreciated.

It's looking quite Jurassic in my closet right now.

Peace and happy growing on the 12th hole folks.

Widow.

(600w HPS, 5" ghetto extractor rig, 8 plants, 2' x 6' x 8' space)

Wasup XS your closet looks great! I have some wwxbb that im about to pop and was wondering how many different phenotypes did you get and how much stretch did you get when you \flipped to 12/12?? Also did you have and scares at all with hermies ive had bad luck with feminised?

5 inch extractor off E-Bay, acoustic ducting to take the edge off the noise. Used the box it came in as a ghetto acoustic dampener (just rig up your ducting, place your fan inc.ducting in box) stuff the box full of bubble wrap, tissue paper or whatever, tape it all up and you're good to go. i used bungees to attach it to the ceiling.
Extractor is at upper left of closet, intake (passive - no fan) is at the opposite lowest point of the closet. Noise is not the quietest but I live alone in a house so no worries.

Thanks for the response. Widow.

Really lucky with sexing. All female, no males or hermies. Everyone does it.com. Frikking fantastic service, great product. And they've had a hammering too my plants. Power outages at least 4 times during grow, above average daytime temps, for first month too low nightime temps. But, as all noobs know, you won't be a noob for long and you can only learn the hard way despite all the online advice and info. Very robust plants, look great. THC literally dripping off colas. Shine an LED torch onto the colas and it looks like someone dumped glitter all over them. Plus, when you stroke the cola, your fingers come away shiny with THC. Makes me wanna cry.

Thanks for the reponse. Widow.

Very nice grow. How long did you veg for and approximately how much did the plants stretch? Thanks!

Oh yeah, WW is prone to stretching as you probably know. Don't be afraid to keep your MH or HPS right over the canopy. Keep at least two oscillating fans blowing airstream over the canopy but not too much that its blowing the plants all over. Light too high and their gonna stretch like a bitch. OK if you've got the space, but it's wasted plant energy that would be better used on node development. I suffered from the same issue, but the upper canopy growth looks like at least 2 - 3 oz per plant av.
Don't forget, the ladies are gonna almost double in height during flowering, so veg 'em to about 21 -23" and then flip 'em.
Peace. XSWidow.

XS i appreciate the info but you never answered my question. How many different phenotypes did you get?? And to confirm they doubled in height when you flipped them correct??

Vegged from seed, so first two weeks lost to seedling stage (under CFL300w), then onto 600w hps for remainder 5 weeks. So 7weeks veg in total. Your's looks lovely.Did you LST it? Colas look phat!!!!! Nice one, wish I was there to smoke it with you bro.

Genetics of the plants were first rate. Phenos exactly per WW - mostly Sativa, 40%(ish?!!?!?!) indica. I'm sure the Big Bud variant leans towards Indica. And yes, if you keep the light at 24" plus, you're going to encourage them to stretch. Presenting you with all sorts of support issues because the colas will want to obey gravity. Keep the airstream nice over the canopy and keep the light at 10- 12". If you've got two lights even better. Multiple fans are my next main goal and a second MH 400 watter.

Are you going to re-veg the already flowered plant (albeit cut right back)? Harvest looks amazing, I bet you're using a 1000watter. If not 2 x 600W HPS. I've seen some threads where guys have done that to great effect. Saves a bunch of time too if my math is right. I'm sure it's only a 1 or 2 time deal.
