LED lights switched now to 10/14, plant is looking really great. This is the sole survivor or 4 plants started from bag seed. The other 3 were boys. How close to harvest do you think I am? The flowers are really looking, smelling, and feeling nice, but I am new at this so I am looking for a little help. Do I have a month? A few weeks?

Go at least a week. But 10 or 11 days would be good. But thats just a guess. Go to radio shak and buy a macroscope. Only like $10.

The idea was to have fun and not spend a lot of money on first grow. I did a lot of reading and came up with this homebuilt setup. Some of it I already had and some was purchased just for the grow. Total cost under 250 easy.

Some details...
LED off ebay 300 watt
new metal trash can for grow container
insulation
fiberglass shower board
air circulation fan
chain
timers
usb data logging thermometer(very important)
base heater-old crock pot set up
nutes and soil in pic
bag seed

I wanted to keep the plant(s) small and learn as I went. The temp was a struggle to keep in a good range, until I bought the data logging thermometer. I was able to control temp from about 80-63 using very little additional power and only 3 relays. I cant wait for next winter.......
