I'm sure there will be better entries, but I'd like to throw this girl in here, just for fun. She is on the smaller side(short veg time), but I think she's pretty all the same. I have three of her sisters that are quite a bit larger flowering right now. Hopefully in coming months, they turn out to be of contest quality.

She went into flower on 8-18. The pics were take on 10-12, so she was about 7 weeks into flower. I harvested her the following week.

lusi id use pic number 4 and number 7 if it was me

elbee and 52 both very nice

 

[Velodrone]

Mine is on the way. Trying to get all the development that I can!

 

[Lusi]

Hey guys, still trying to decide. I was hoping to see what others have. Are the 2 photos supposed to be of the same plant? I've been resizing my pics.... question, is it better to leave the resolution high (mine start at 300) and make the photo size small, like 1.5" x 2"... or to make the resolution smaller (72 or 00) and make the photo size larger... )8x10 inches or so) ??

I LOVE the close up bud pics above. What kind of camera lens gets such detail? My telephoto lens can't do that!

TY!

 

[Van Diesel]

I know there's already at least one plant that would beat me, but just for fun I'll put one of my sour d's in on the 14th or so, provided there isn't already the max entrants ( ) by that time.

 

[Lusi]

Hey cool, that helps. I'll switch these over to pixels instead of size, and see if these look better. I'm also zooming on photos, then cropping. It's funny, in order to see the bugs on leaves, I take a teleP pic, then zoom in to see things my eyes don't pick up.

TY!

 

[Lusi]

Where are all of the photos?!

I think I've stared long enough at my photos to now see the pot of flowers and pot is just as stealthy in the photo as in real life. You have to look at a pretty arrangement a while to even realize there is an MJ plant in the photo. :-D I had many guests walk by that set up and never see the huge blooming MJ.

So here' the bud pics. This "Curly" from my first grow. She's is Shiva Shanti II, Sensi. I have a few boxes of this strain, so far all have germinated!

This particular plant was started from seed in a windowsill before I had ever heard about grow lights. The rough start paid off because she and her seed mate turned out short and compact, covered in buds. Curly lives in a planter on my porch surrounded by flowers and herbs. No one sees her and I can' even smell her! LOL

photo 1: my 1st bud, harvested after the photo.

photo 2: This is a younger bud, not harvested yet. Seeds were started in May. CA heat kept them slow growing.

 

[BassPlayer]

Ok so this is my entry... she is from my second grow and is a clone from my first.
Pics were taken at 56 days into flower. Strain is Medijuana... she is in a 3 liter airpot, was vegged under cfl for around 6 weeks, flowered under 400w hps. She gets fed with biobizz nutes plus molasses and extra C02...just a few more days and shes ready for the chop...

to all

Only 4 entries so far this month guys.

Tomorrow is voting day, let's get them in before the whistle bows.

 

[Planter]

bassplayer, very nice plant. i counted 22 aswell

 

[Van Diesel]

Its not as big as some other plants, but I'll sure stand by her smoke. From my last harvest of Sour Diesel-

grown is a blend of ProMix BX, Fox Farms Ocean Forest, and volcanic cinder, using Fox Farm liquid trio, under a 600w hps. This plant yielded about 1.5oz dried bud that has a great citrusy/fuel smell, lemon candy taste, and a wonderful energetic high.

Great entries so far.
