There is no way in hell that that chart is anywhere close to accurate lol. I live in the mid atlanic region in the US. Where the hell do you live? Im about to be your neighbor :bigjoint:
the chart is an average from 2011, so rates in your area may be slightly higher but if the USA national average is 12 cents/KWH, there is no way in hell you would pay $10/KWH

but please don't believe me, as I'll link you to the US Energy Information Administration website that lists all the current USA prices

Table 5.6.A. Average Price of Electricity to Ultimate Customers by End-Use Sector,
by State, July 2015 and 2014 (Cents per Kilowatthour)

10 cents per KWH...not $10.07

Here's some updates on how she's maturing. Whats does everyone do on their last week to get ready for harvest? Ive heard some people say not to water it so it starts drying out on its own and i've heard to give it an ice bath (doing final flush with ice water) i guess thats supposed to imitate the first frost and get the plant to give one final push but what are your opinions?20150929_093617.jpg20150929_093536.jpg

Hey just to put it in perspective. I use a 400wat hps. Thats is the same as running a computer with a 400watt power supply. My computer actually uses more power then my grow room light, I havea 450 watt power supply and actually run my computer 24hours a day, and my light are only 18 or 12. a 24 watt cfl would not even change the eltric bill. But if u need to be stealthy about t, which i did when i live wit my parents. Add one light bulb every month so they dont notic the bill go up, and once u get about 150-200 watt cfl's going u can switch to a hps, and they wont notice a change on the bill

If you haven't used any nutes at all, just water, then that dude is as flushed as it will get, cut it at the bottom and hang her up, remove fan leaves if you are in a more moist environment, if you have low humididty in your area then leave them on, let it dry for about 3-5 days till the stems get some snap to them, then clean them with snips( manicure the buds to make em pretty) and place in jars, burp jars daily for the first week or 2, then continue to cure until you have smoked it all up:bigjoint:
