Hell yeah how many watts are you running now? Dont forget to keep that trim man gotta try your hand at some hash making i always just throw it in the freezer and wait till i have enough to make the process worth it or i let it dry and run it through a kief box throw it in a jar them drop bong rips in the jar shake until you dont get green pull the ripper out and stuff it in my bong i also do this with my stems big and small but the best stem keif comes from the stems inside your buds. Also if your bored you can have yourself an all hair pistil and keif blunt and or joint will rock your world. This last week or two Norma should put on some more weight watch for her to throw new pistils and i hope she does means the nugs are going to get a lot fatter also means you have another 2-3 weeks most time just watch for new hairs and them trics to turn cloudy to amber. Also if you want to reveg her i can help you with that never done it in dro but soil and dro are the same game. Leave some of the nugs on the bottom of the plant switch to a vegging light cycle and add veg nutrients high in N takes 2 weeks to a month to see new growth but then you could keep that strain around and even try your hand at cloning once she has re-vegged a good amount. Got a TH seeds burmese kush that i just loved the smoke from so i left tiny ass nugglets on the bottom like freaking pea sized maybe 4 inches of main stem well a month later i have about 10 branches coming off my main stem they branch crazy if you reveg and im going to clone the shit out of her. She was a 12/12 from seed i might even breed she some day. I transplanted into a 3 gallon from a 1 gallon and used FF happy frog really didnt think she would reveg but did so im a happy camper like i said i left nothing on her really hahaha not a single fan leaf only a few sugar leafs and pea sized nugs. Oh the Burmese kush was a freebie from the tude i like her cuz she is very potent no smell in veg a light smell in flower but omg chop and cure she stinks also goes purple late in flower. I used one 26 watt 6500k cfl till she started re vegging then i put another now im up to about 190watts running 3 specs on her 2700k 5500k 6500k.

@ slim, norma is being flowered under 6x2700ks and 2x6500ks...both are 26watts equivalent to a "100watt" bulb...? my other 2 plants are being flowered under 6 bulbs...3x2700ks, 3x6500 ks...hash?? thats a new process on me, lol care to elaborate some?? you mentioned throwing them in the freezer?? Ive had plenty of clippings too and the current ones u see....and a hair pistil bowl/joint? how do I do this?? man you just opened up a new door...lol, I dont know if ill reveg norma, shes huge as it is..lol I will however reveg my Iced x grapefruit...shes the one im looking forward too lol, so I will def keep your advice about leavin little nugs on the bottom...i want to pick up the auto afghan kush once norma is done, its like now that I kinda know what im doin on getting the plant started from seed to where they are at now, I want to grow awhole lotta shit, lol!!!!! but discreetly, and im not doing no more than 2 plants once norma is done..lol, oh! bet you didnt know Norma had a sister :) her name was NormaJean, she died a sick death, my cat ate her...lmfao!! tho since then she wont go near my plants now muahahahah >:)

You throw them in the freezer to keep them fresh and to make the trics hard and brittle its for ice water bubble hash but i have yet to find a good diy method for making it always get to much plant matter. When ever i have enough for a batch i take a drive over to my buddies house he has a 8 bag kit google bubble hash and bubble bags then google full melt hash. Now with the hair pistil joint you need more fluffy then dense but you can do it with any bud really. a keif box is a wooden box that has a screen in it with a piece of glass under the screen you put your trim in the top shake the box and the trics fall through the screen. I use a fine tipped scissor even tweezers to simply pluck the pistils from the bud/stem, hairs will collect in your bud jar if you use it long enough like the jar you keep your head stash in. You get yourself a paper put the hairs on the bottom keif in the middle and pistils on top cuz the top when rolling sometimes will fall out just make sure you lick the joint and dont let that bitch run. Will fuck your ass up and you dont have any leaf or stems so its smooth as shit just be careful to big a hit will make you passed out and your head go zing zing zing hahahah;-) Oh and roll over a picture or some piece of glass so you dont loose any goodness;-)Nah i remember her sister and your post about the cat eating her ahhaha fucking cat:-) my dog loves my plants be he dont fuck with them only likes to stare or it might be him trying to get my attention but when my plants are doing good he is extra happy and he loves smoking get a bowl cherried and he comes a running sniff and sneeze and do it all over again then he curls up cleans his paws and passes out or goes and grubs the shit out of his kibble and drinks about a gallon of water hahahaha. I never blow smoke in his face i feel thats kinda messed up but if he wants to take a puff or two himself so be it he does like to hot box tho nothing but a big stupid smile on his face hahaha. Your gonna flip when you see full melt and if you ever get to smoke it yourself the taste is out of this world.

I wait till about the 4th week in flower i take the "middle" ones off and leave the outside leafs on but you should take like 2 weeks to fully have them off so like the 6th week the middle is gone I use common sense when i go about it remove the ones that only NEED to be removed type of deal. Fan leafs feed the stems the small little sugar leafs feed your buds so later in flower i only have outside and a few inside leafs. When they head out/top out like norma i remove even more if you think about it when you remove the fans after harvest your breaking off so many resin heads also it allows full light to all the buds makes them plump right up and push more resin out.

If she is done with her stretch remove only a handful that NEED to be removed first trim i take the most then i slowly take the rest and leave the outside on. always leave your bottom growth for re vegging. From the pic only a few off the main stem need to be taken at this time to allow more light into the middle. Pull your branches down and away from the middle any sticking straight up take off i do this in veg aswell for training and to promote more branching so i never have them in flower. Remember do it over time.

I just bought a 400watt cool tube HPS MH light kit for 150$, most likely Ill be replacing the CFLS...before I do so, will the 400watt be adequate for my 3 plants? i would say each current ballast is maybe 3-4 ft off the floor but they are seperated..i have 3 ballast total, 1 per plant...is it ok for the leaves to touch the other plants If i have to scoot them over for the 400watt lighting?? dont want to fuck shit up with a new light so LATE into my grow.....heres a pic, i tried to fit it all in but id have to remove the closet door, u can see the bar where they dangle and all 3 ballast, is the 400 good for this space, amount of plants?

@slim, I looked up bubble-hash...man, im jumping all over that. Thanks for the info, when it say plant cuttings, does that mean ANY cuttings or the trim from the harvest

Well you can use any trim but the trim off your harvest will give you the best. If you look at any leaf under a scope you will see it has resin heads all over it. Thats why they are somewhat rough if you run your finger over it kinda like a cats tongue ive made it with trim from veg before and you get less and the high is more energetic more uplifty trim from harvest should knock your socks off and stick you on the couch. I would keep your veg trim and your harvest trim separate and try two runs of bubble hash save the veg trim hash for a rainy day and smoke up the harvest hash. Also save the goop off your scissors thats as close to full melt as you can get without running bubble bags. You can use any part of the plant to make bubble hash even old nug that you no longer want to smoke its like a way to get the last bit of goodness out before you trash it type of thing.
