27 days??? whoa those look huge!!
Going to be a nice yield there bro, what you expecting from those 2?

+rep!!!

Thank you BR. I have absolutely no clue what to expect. i have no experience growing before, so its hard for me to tell what about the yield.

You are more than welcome to make some guesses. Actually it might be too early but everyone is welcome to take some guesses.

1200w HPS + 125w CFL on 4 golds and 2 OGs

Im glad you feel that way. I try really hard not to overthink things. That has gotten me into trouble in the past. I have been hooked on plants for a while. I did 3 grows previously, only 2 that harvested....... Patience pays. I also have a dwarf cirtus tree collection, indoor watermelons, Avacado tree, and countless tropical houseplants....... Its a lot of work taking care of all these plants.

Seems like we are both over thinkers. I don't know how bad your case is but I over think to a point where it can stress me out so much or even start depressing me.

Anyhow if the over thinking can be controlled properly than an over thinker can really do well in whatever the task is. I have seen plenty of first grow fail by other folks and I must give some credit for my progress in this first grow to over thinking.

LOL :bigjoint:I am over thinking about overthinking.


:wall: Fuck!! Now I am over thinking about thinking about my over thinking. :wall:

Earlier in the grow, one of the HG colas grew so fast that it touched the light for a bit and got burnt, so I had to prune it off.

Now its a two headed main cola.

Just exquisite!! Those buds look fantastic. :weed: How is the odor?

Thanks man. My huge carbon filter w/ 6" vortex fan is working great, I smell almost nothing.

But believe me the HG and the OG stunk real good before i put up the carbon filter late veg.

The smell was very skunky during veg. But know when i touch the buds of gold, it smells like pineapples. The smell of the HG is extremely pleasant, even folks who don't smoke bud like this smell. Its more like a fruity ladies perfume.

The OG smells like a combination of Coffee/Lemon/Shit, respectively. Don't get me wrong the og smells great, mighty strong.

I have started doing what loaded says. When I smoke its like a frozen computer and then pushing the restart button and it works perfectly fine.
Anybody notice that smoking makes the pain go away but not get you high sometimes.?
I have suffered from severe stomach pain for years, and it is this type of pain I am describing above. Works for an hour or so and then wears off. Typically smoke one for the stomach and another for the head.........
Those plants are looking fantastic.... A grow like that would give me some confidence.....
Its good to be reassured by your own smoke of your success in turning a pot of dirt into a medicinal plant...........

Thank you wonder.

I am really sorry to hear about your pain. What is the cause of the pain. I really hope it's nothing serious.

When I am in severe pain, even mild pain, I don't feel any head or body high. Smoking just relieves the pain. On the other hand eating a good amount will always do more than just pain relief.

I prefer to smoke enough for pain relief and then a bit more for anxiety relief.

It is amazing how the odor changes. The pk was a little smelly during flower and then a couple weeks into flower was skunky, now it is smells almost fruity sweet and very strong.

So when you say huge, how big is the filter? I am looking at a 42" to hook up to my 6" vortex, my DIY filter I made isn't working anymore.

Hey on another note, I have a buddy that wants to trade some clones. He has some og, puple haze and green crack. I will have to get some opinions on the og when it's done before I decide.

Yeah man, the odor change can be significant. The filter I am using is Can 66.

If its one of original cuts, then there is almost no question about OG's potency, its easily one of the strongest stuff I have had.

I have been observing the OG and HG very closely since the beginning. My opinion about OG is that the number of plants doesn't matter as much as having a screen does for a higher yield. Next run I will begin flowering the OG before it hits the screen, in the first week or two of flowering the the stretched stems with popcorn style bud showing up could be bent in the screen kinda making each popcorn bud a mini main colas, since they will be at the same height after bending in the screen, the light could also be lowered. Oh yes, super crop, fim, and LST before entering the screen.

The HG requires a completely different strategy for a good yield.
