Dude that flap to look in and out of your garden is sick. Without having to enter the garden...you still do but not as much with those small occasions when you go and just 'look'

-Lack of knowledge- Untied lst right after veg, upon entering flowering

.....(was a cfl grow!) Resulted in the tops (that were tied down in veg) SHOOTING UP!, creating an EXTREMELY tall plant.





ALSO: SECOND part fail: I let it get too tall before entering flowering...OOPS! LOL, she was a foot and a half before she went 12/12 ROFL. View attachment 2036953
LESSON LEARNED: KEEP YOUR LST throughout flowering! ALSO: If you are a cfl grower, make sure to do everything in your power to keep your canopy

low......(unless you have a shit ton of side lighting!) YOU LIVE AND YOU LEARN. ;)

AHAHAHA, she is a monster!

lesson learned- pulled that shit out (review earlier lessons about one plant per pot) i dont know how this happened..that plant was veg in that pot for 2-3 weeks before that baby pumped out..late bloomer?

Also, just got this one lady from a pack of 10 mixed. This is the only seed that popped and turned out to be female. Anyone have any idea what strain this is? Its about half way through flower and the crystals are so crazy..

Lol.. Hey lime, do you think this thread could go sticky? Its a great educational tool. With the weekend here i think i could get some great pics and feedback. I 'm sorry too say it but i was hopping to see a good spider mite infestation. Ive only had regular mites and i would love to be prepared haha.
