I know they ain't the biggest, but these 2 from my bag seed seemed like they were going to die starting them, but now are my best looking nugs lol. I have grown much bigger plants with CFL's in case some are worried these are too pathetic lol (these just started weird & the purple nug one topped itself), but obviously better lights are best :). Also, I think since these started slow they needed more time, but as of now, these plants have been in flower for 13 weeks.

If you have access to a jeweler loop or some sort of magnifying scope, I would suggest to look at how your trichomes are. Clear=NOT ready, Cloudy/clear=getting ready, cloudy/50-75% almost there( some harvest at this stage but plants differ). Amber/cloudy 20/80% or 10/90% = Ready. Don't follow my words to heart, alot of people do harvests in their own way. I prefer a 10/90% of amber & cloudy.

P.S i don't see any white pistils so you must definitely have a mature plant. Once those recede and you get any of the percentages above, then you have a glimpse at your harvest time.


Cheers, Dankus.

Ya I wanted to buy one for this harvest but I got careless because I wasn't to happy with this grow (except for this purple plant). Maybe I should try to buy one today so it comes in soon. Thanks :).

I totally agree with the above replies. Buy a scope or lupe and enjoy the view!
I also enjoy seeing your CFL results! We all use what we use for lighting, medium, nutrients and growing systems, until we change to something different.
Thanks for the post!

Could post my other plants but they are kinda sad looking lol, the biggest plant this grow that I loved the training on, was locked out to long and didn't seem to recover at all. I will be posting more later I'm sure too because I'm stuck mostly with a crawlspace. Thanks again everyone :)
