I used a random seed, so I don't know what the strain is. This is only my 2nd plant ever. I accidentally chopped my first plant in half with a pole from the shelf it sat on a few days after it had turned female. I wish I could have seen that plant bud. Well, I hope I am doing good on this plant!
Yep... I am so excited and I hope she stays this beautiful!
You really think it'll produce a nice harvest? This will be my first harvest ever... Only one plant though.
I only vegged for a little over a month. I'd really like to do more plants, but I want to get a HPS light first. The CFL's were just an experiment. I haven't used any nutes either. Just water when dry and let grow.

Should I use flowering nutes now though, or do you have to use nutes the whole time to keep from shocking the plant?
What exactly is a hydro shop? Is that a garden place only located outside of the U.S.?
I did an experiment to this plant and cut mature fan leaves off all the way to the stalk during the first month of growing to keep them from shading the plant. I am no longer cutting them since the growth is very established now. It wasn't shocked into turning male. This plant is 5 days into flowering and is growing strong! As you can see from the previous pictures that it has tons of shoots and is short with big/fat leaves... Which means mostly indica, I believe, but it was a random seed.

Here are some pictures taken of the plant during it's 18/6 veg cycle when I was cutting the leaves off.

**Remember, this was only done during the first month of vegging. As soon as a leaf matured and was big, I cut it at the stalk.**
How tall do you think my plant could be at the end of flowering? Should I plan on it tripling in height?

Damn Dude, You ARE livin' right. My 3rd grow looked something like that. I should have your luck!! It's a thing of beauty.

Thanks to all who have looked and commented on my girl since I've been away!!

Well, it's day 6 of flowering and I am seeing more and more growth every day. It really is a thing of beauty. I'd say that she is gonna make me very happy! Which brings me to this next subject...

I have decided to just let it grow without using any nutes. I know, I know! It's better for yield and taste to use nutes, but I want to see what kind of power the plant really has on it's own. As long as I take great care of it, it should be fine. Maybe I'll only get a little, or maybe I'll get a lot... Who knows?

Here are some more pictures from today. Enjoy!! bongsmilie

Thank you! I am astonished at how fast it's drinking water! The soil gets dry almost in a day.

Anyway, here are some more pictures.

It's day 8 of flowering.

looks really nice. you can expect to see your water/nute consumption continue to increase. I am using two gal. pots and at 4 wks and water more than once per day ...though I do not schedule it as much as I just feel it. urs are looking really nice. Good luck. ! Walk On!~

Taking pictures of my plant has now become a little hobby of mine. I don't know what I like so much about it, but I know I really enjoy it! It's only day 8 of flowering, so I know that I will be getting some BAD ASS pictures in about 20 days!

Um... This may be stupid, but is it possible for the flash of the camera to fuck up the plant?

Never mind about the flash question... I got it answered. It does not harm the plant to use a flash camera. However, taking them in the dark cycle is risky.

Here is day 10 of flower!:leaf:

A few of the bottom leaves look like they are fading to a yellow color... Almost like they are bleaching. Is this normal? Someone told me that the plant will die from the bottom up using the extra energy to produce the buds instead of the leaves...
