Yes indeed, everything has been going well and the first batch is chopped and drying! I've taken the liberty of smoking a sample of the MediBud and the SSH for y'all and I must say - wow! The MediBud has a mellowing, calming high - too much and you get a short couchlock followed by a...

Hey GT, that's exactly what's happening to me. It's always nice to meet people "in the know" to learn from. I'll go to my local home depot and get what you recommended (or close substitutes) after the first batch of ladies is through with flowering. Would you recommend scrubbing the room with...

I even went on Ebay to get a hold of SNS - and what happens? The only seller tells me they're not listed with our Ministry of Agriculture... *cry* At least they promised me to send enough samples for free to help take care of my troubles... :)

Hmm... looks like only you can answer that question. Did your plants survive? How nosey are the neighbors? Do you think they would recognise your plants for what they are? How visible is your garden? And the list goes on. Really, there's no way telling you what to do online, you'll have to...

To throw in my 2c's worth: Don't cut off functioning parts of a plant unless you know they won't benefit growth. That being said, I have come to the conclusion that there is little harm in pruning shoots that won't ever see the artificial sun. All you're doing is helping the plant put its...

Woo-hoo! Count me in - great setup you have there. I'm really looking forward to seeing these beauties come harvest!

God, those buds look delicious. Call me a perv, but I can't wait for more bud porn from you. Make sure to take pix just before harvest! :)

I'm with the Captain here, a prolonged dark period will help kick-start flowering. When the barman puts up the stools and starts playing with the light, I KNOW it's time for last rounds... ;)

@VanDiesel: I just wanted to add that I cut out the brown parts of the bud in the picture and - yay! - there was no sign of mold there. I guess the additional aeration won't be the worst thing for the rest of the bud, so I'll knock on wood and see how things go from here. :)

Hey Dsbc, you're not hijacking anything. :) If you are strapped for cash, just paint your walls - matte white paint is only slightly less reflective than the expensive foil you can buy. It doesn't matter whether you use LED or HID as far as reflectivity is concerned. The only thing I noticed...

Thanks Van, I'll go with your advice, start flushing aiming for the 12th week and see how that goes. To be on the safe side, I'll also cut out the brown part of the bud to allow for more aeration of the affected part. Cheers!

Yes, I would love to do that, but the flowering times were given as "between 11 and 13 weeks"... that's two weeks...

Today, I'm gonna whip out the old microscope camera and have a look at the trichomes. Last time I checked, most were still clear. My question is: when should I start flushing? I plan on flushing 2 weeks before harvest, but have no idea how long it takes for cloudy trichomes to turn amber (I...

Great grow, Steve! Great setup and the babies are coming along nicely. I really wonder how much you'll yield in the end. Permission to come aboard? ;)

Hey everyone, I have also asked this in my grow journal, but to maximise visibility, I shall put my question here as well: Due to a "dry spell" caused by various factors (read: my fault), my plants were extremely droopy and lots of wilted leaves had to be removed. Thankfully, only one bud...
