This was my final tally. 28g trim 32g bud I was right that my yield was low due to low lighting.

Can anybody eyeball that and tell me what you think that yield is/will be?

So last night was harvest night. Seven plants taken down. Got concerned bc I questioned whether some of these plants were males - even though they were sold as all females. Maybe they are just buds. Take a look. In any case, next photo is what I call trash, trim & treasure. Then the buds and...

Oh the testing was conducted and I am more than happy.

Looks great Chankylanky. I'm going to harvest mine starting on Wed so will go 5-6 days longer. Followed your example and pinched off a small low bud, trimmed her, quick dry microwave method (thanks for the suggestion), and gave her a try. Houston, we have a winner!

So I do bulletproof coffee everyday. Coffee + 1tbsp unsalted grass fed butter + 1tbsp MCT oil (which comes from coconut oil). You must blend it in a high speed blender or else I use a portable battery operated latte froth tool. Not as good as a blender but quite adequate. Now...if I made and...

Just curious, when you say "flipping" you are talking about changing Light schedule for autos, correct? My next (2nd) grow will definitely include topping. I like the 3rd/4th node advice. Think I was too late this first grow and might have actually topped off the initial main pre-flower which...

Clearly your light setup and LST were very effective in maximizing your grow. Good job! I am almost the exact germination date with same strain but used multiple CFLs and not as good LST. My vegetative frankly was outstanding but the flowering stage - not nearly as effective as yours. Nutrients...

Wait...what's the microwave quick dry technique?

Yeah, I talked my way out of it after more thought. Going to just ride this out until harvest and chalk these things up to lessons learned.

I think that later tonight I am going to trim way some of the big fan leaves in hopes of driving more light and nutrients to the remaining buds for this last week or so. Don't think that it can hurt anything.

Yeah, I think that is exactly it. I had enough light for a good vegetative phase but not enough for a good flowering is my guess. Since I never moved into the tent, I don't think the CFLs were strong enough or even perhaps close enough. So I learned. I have everything for the tent ready to go...

So here I am at Day 48 and some of the buds are starting to show color in the pistil threads. This is god news and bad news I guess. Good in that I am getting closer to harvest. Bad in that the buds are still not very developed. There are lots of really small buds that seem to not be developing...

Hey Chankylanky, how you coming along? I think we sprouted same day 3/2. I'm still waiting for the buds to show more signs of growth. Here are my photos for Day 46.

I agree with what everyone else said. In addition, you have 13 plants in a 4x4x6.5 tent? You'll need FAR more room especially once you get them in say 2.5 gallon pots. Are you planning on moving outdoors?
