shit's fire. Smells like some fruity pebbles. Got 21 grams dry. 14 from main colas, 7 from "popcorns". Going with regular seeds alk the way next time.

I decided to pick a "sample bud" off the largest cola right in the under the giant main bud. These pics are of that piece after trimming the sugar leaves off and the fan leaf that was next to it. There are some amber trichcomes on the sugar leaves but the pistils are only about 40% reddish/brown...

Going on around day 40 of flowering. Just watered it before snapping these. She is drinking a lot more water now. Notice the cupping of the upper leaves. Is this due to a lack of water or is it getting too close to the lights? The taller colas are probably only a couple inches away from two...

I think those two auto strains I chose were also not very good for yield. When I was shopping for seeds, all I saw was "these finish in 45 to 55 days and are very low maintenance" and thought "woah, I'll be getting stoned in less than 2 months". It was true, but I only got lit a few times. And I...

Thanks. I learned a lot with these 6 seeds. Mainly, how to prepare the soil, how often to water, the design of the grow area, how far away the lights should be, what household containers I already have that I can turn into a suitable pot, keeping the whole thing stealthy, things like that. This...

About 20 days into flowering. The cola all the way to the left is the one that sort of came out of nowhere and now it looks like it is the dominant one.

Update/Results so far Seed #1, the Auto Skunk #1 started to yellow and eventually kicked the bucket. Seed #2, Auto #1, successfully germinated then suffered a similar fate Seed #3, the freebie which happened to also be an autoflower popped but died before the first true leaves appeared At...

Day 9

$80 is above my budget ATM. I'll look into HPS on the next grow. For now, I got about $20 extra to spend on lights. I heard 2700k is best for flowering so I was thinking another $10 4-pack of those 23 watters. I've also seen full spectrum LED bulbs that are supposed to be specifically for...

TY for the help, Cyrus. I did notice that the stem was stretching even after just one day under the light. I had it at around 6-8 inches at first and I even noticed that one of the cotyledons was larger than the other and leaning toward the lights. So, I moved the light closer (by putting the...

Thanks. I wasn't sure if those two little ball things are considered leaves or not. But, I did what you said. It is still in the jiffy pellet and tray but I took off the tray's dome cover and now it is under 4x 13w CFLs about 8 inches away. Since they are bulbs I found around the house, I don't...

8 hours after the last post, the Auto Skunk #1 is now looking like it is somewhere between stage 3 (the one labeled hypocotyl) and stage 4 (cotyledon) the illustration. This thing is growing pretty rapidly. Should I leave it in the dark until true leaves form or does it need light? Latest pic:

I'm probably just going to pick up another wally world 4-pack of 23 watters but this time I'll go with 6500k. That should put me close to 185w for one plant. I was planning on using the 4x 2700k and 4x 6500k for the entire grow and maybe some real sunlight? Either way, I read 18/6 was best but...

Oops, I just realized you have a Grow Journal section which might be more appropriate for this post.
