The big day finally arrived. I started taking down the plants. I only had time to take down 3. I will take the others down in a day or two.....been busy with work.

I took down 2 Northern Lights and 1 Ice plant. The main buds are very fat and healthy. The overall grow took at least 14 days longer then I expected but i think the results will be well worth it.

Here are some pics. I will post more when I get a chance to take the others down. I will also get a total weight up when I am finished.

LED BUDS. WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Nice job Iceman! I'm running four MagPlus LED's. Looking at your earlier posts you probably were pushing it on the plant count. I'm a newbie also. This is only my third grow but decided to switch to LED's after using HID's.

AKpaco...I was deffinately pushing the plant count. It was just too much....my eyes were bigger than my lungs! I am taking the others down today or tomorrow. Work has kept me swamped. I have 8 AK48's seedlings under a Flouro's that I will be transplanting. So my plant count will be cut in half. I will be experimentng on pruning techniques and some new nutes. My hope is that this grow is faster than the last with fewer plants. If I knew more about SCROG, I'd like to give that a try too. Thanks for looking!

I hear ya! I'll be watching because I have some AK48 seeds on the way. Because of my limited room height I thought the AK48 would be a good strain for my setup. Will you be posting that journal also?

You'll get that! I'm always pushing my plant count, not legally but regarding space considerations. I'm a freak about canopy control for max coverage, don't let any light hit the floor is my motto :D

AK- I finished 5 ak48 plants with this grow. I received my seeds from Nirvana. They finished at about 3 feet tall, easy. I am not sure how much space you have but I would have at least 4 feet when you take into consideration room for your lights. I vegged for 3 weeks. So, It wasnt as though I vegged for 2 months before flowering and that was the reason for the height. I bet your plants will be all over 3' plus by the time of harvest.

Still drying out. I will post final weight early next week. From what i can tell, I averaged about 2oz's per plant dried.
