Ok - just harvested my 2 plants (78g wet with some stem) and thought now was the time to share it with the world! I'm not really sure about what to write and lets face it, we all just skim through and look at the pictures anyway, ha! So here is a bunch of photos for you, feel free to ask questions and please give me any advice - Thanks

They're all autos, figured they would be slightly easier for me for my first grow! My first 2 are critical mass - the next 6 you see are super automatic sativa. I started with a 125w cfl then at about 20 days i swapped up to 300w cfl. Theyre growing in canna terra pro and im using the canna terra nutrients.

The 4th pic you can see is at 15 days. I was really happy with the speed and quality - so i started my next few.

This was at about 20 days - i was going to upgrade to 600w hps, however it was WAAAAY too hot for my area. As i cant really put in an extractor fan i decided to sell it (sold it on ebay for more than i paid so i was pretty pleased, ha!)

The 4th pic above is at exactly 1 month. They don't really get any taller, just bigger.

This is at the end a few days ago (at about 2 months) The tric's were looking perfect so i went to town harvesting...

And there it is - ill let you know in a few days what the 'actual' yield is. Overall im very pleased with it considering the size of my area and using cfl light, my whole setup cost less than £100.

So yeah, please leave any comments you can with what you think i should have changed, improved etc. Everything will be taken into account for the 6 SAS growing now!

Thanks

That's awesome man, can I ask what sort of nutrient schedule you used as I'm using almost the same setup, soil and nutes, cheers!

I was using Canna Terra nutes (recommend with their soil) After about 20 days i was doing nutes every 3 days, watering every 2- very weak solution however i dont have a measure so it was mainly done by eye. Also i would miss days due to having an awful memory - i'm going to be a lot more organised with the sas. Towards the end i was putting in a very small amount of 'ace of buds' in aswel - it definately worked, as the one with the bigger weight was the only one i used that on. Good luck with your grow! I've enjoyed it soo much, cant wait to get these SAS big and loaded.

So after drying for a few days they are now in jars. Total weight is 26.8g - so not awful, but not good. Still enjoyed it, but definitely going to learn from my mistakes.
