flowering day one. lol. damn you like to start em early. 3 1/2 oz is pretty nice off 4 squat plants, weighty lil buggers. i got a 400w MH for my lil indoor grows and have been thinking of gettin a 600w HPS like you and growin more girls. how do you like it, what bulb do you have in it or just some random one? does it generate alot of heat? i imagine you prob atleast have an exhaust fan to get rid of it but just kinda curious
nice grow though, now you got some kill headstash for those crappy days when ya need a pick me up, or when ya just feel like gettin your head to weigh 6tons
i like WW. alot of ppl dog it cuz its commonly talked about and well known strain but most widow ive come across seems to be poorly grown. with 4 under a 600w you prob got those ladies drippin wet with thc
cheers!

That was funny! Flowering day 1!
I just pulled my first from my first grow 2 days ago.
Been off line cuz we moved.
When the cable/internet guy was here I was holding my breath hoping he wouldn't ask to use the bathroom as the plants are in the closet in there. They are locked up, but the glow and the smell would just give them away.

Hey fdd, you got some beautiful plants there! Yummmmm!:blsmoke: I am not sure how to manicure my buds. do you have any pics after you trim yours. I pulled all the fan leaves off, but not sure what to do with the leafy tips coming out of the bud. Of coarse not throw them out but how do you make the smoke stuff pretty?:-?

i like to trim the small leaves off with sharp like eyebrow scissors, the real smal ones. and just roll joints with that when i i cant like get super ripped but wanna smoke somethin(i dont smoke cigs) but leaf shake makes your bud smoke less pure and gives a more fucked high(headaches, come down quicker) i trim it no leaves showing. some beautiful manicured dank. tasty. also make sure theyre dry fully then cure in glass jars. trust me its worth it. there are some good lil online articles about curing/harvesting/drying if you look, and im sure someone on here has a link. if you cant find any ill type up a red eye issue article i got from soma, dude knows his shiet and has some nappy dreads. i dig alot of the stuff guy says

god i type to much, you can tell how high i am, anything over 3 lines the more there is the higher i am lol

easy there. i have just potted three ice seeds and they are doing pretty good for 4 days growth. they are about 3" already and leaves are getting bigger slowly and theres not too much growth in height yet.
My main concern is about the lights that i am using. There is one cool white 21W fluro, and one warm white 21W fluro. Are these two lights combined enough for me to grow through all three stages or should i get another one of the two lights, and if so, which one?

man i tried to reply 3 times and it f-ed up
2 floros isnt enough to flower, and is even gonna be hard to veg with. more light, easier to heal from injury or sickness.
Econo 400w HPS with Chrome Reflector - InsideSun=

thats a cheap and good light
theres also 250w hps and mh there
but 400w is nice if you wanna grow more in the future
even crap strains can be resiny if enough light is there
Ice is an incredible plant
with good lighting it will put you on your ass
you want something with at least 25,000 lumens
40,000+ lumens is great
more lumens = tight/dense large and resinous bud
yep
