Here's where the nug porn starts.

Meryl - Day 21- Flower

I've been taking lots of pictures. I can't help it, she looks too good

It's hard to believe 2 months ago she was smaller than my lighter. As you can see, she's starting to develop plenty of trichomes on the leaves (hello hash), and the hairs are really clumping up.

She's 21 days into flower and the breeder's pack says it's 45-50 days, but we all know that's not the most reliable source. When should I start flushing? Some say two weeks before harvest and others have said just one, so I'm not sure who to believe.

Also, since she's an indica dominant hybrid, when should I harvest?

EDIT: If you noticed the little things that look like spider mite webs, don't worry. I checked and they're just my hair :P

It's really starting to trip me out at this point. About 60 some odd days ago this beast was trapped inside of a shell. If I dropped it on the carpet she may have been lost forever. It's crazy as hell that I could create life and shepherd it into a healthy, thriving in such a short time.

Enough stoney rambling, though. I'm shopping around for new seeds and I want any tips I can get for a strain choice. I want something more on the indica side, but I'm still open to sativas. Any strain that does well indoors and doesn't require eight feet of vertical space will do. Overall, potency is gonna take precidence over any other features.

Suggestions?

I've been shopping around and I think I've come to a decision: Strawberry cough. It's one of my personal favorites. The aroma, high and yield it produces are all very impressive. I would be going with Blue Dream, my favorite strain EVER, but considering it's a clone only strain and there aren't really any people within 500 miles with one, I'm pretty much SOL

A long time. Over 50 days. It was just traumatized and ended up very stunted.

Ill probably do some research on blue moonshine too, I like dutch passion

Meryl is looking DELICIOUS these days. You'd think I threw a pound of sugar on her by these pictures. 24 days into flower and going strong. She's getting a strong dose of Tiger Bloom every time she dries up (which is every 2-3 days now) and seems to be putting it to good use.

Naomi is looking nice, starting to form plenty of pistils, but still pretty dinky at this point. It's to be expected, she hasn't been flowering long and I'm amazed she hasn't hermied on me as a result of all the early trauma.

Meryl isn't adding much more height anymore, I think she's about done with that now. I've been snipping sun leaves that are getting in the way of bud sites and she doesn't seem to mind. Is this a good technique or am I doing more harm that good?

Any pointers for flowering/when to harvest are welcome.

How tall did Meryl get after you induced flowering? Loving the pictures, she looks sooo good. How's the smell?

She grew at least 8-12 more inches after I changed her light schedule. The smell is OVERPOWERING at this point. They named it Skunk with very good cause. I'm a pack-a-day smoker and I still get a whiff whenever I walk by the room.
