Day 68 (Day 31 Flowering): They are really starting to bulk up. The canopy of the garden looks really frosty and full of big buds.

Day 79 (Day 42 Flowering): The hairs are starting to turn brown on most of the plants. There is one nlxbb that still has pretty much all white hairs, but the other nlxbbs and wws are starting to ripen. I looked at the crystals on the leaves under a microscope and its about 5% amber, 50%cloudy, 45% clear.

In case anyone else is dealing with similar issues, I just got a dehumidifier off Amazon, to help with high humidity. My humidity would reach around 70-80% when I closed the tarp up at night. Now, I am able to keep it at around 30-40% all the time. It was pretty inexpensive too:

I'm entering the seventh week of flowering now. The white widow says 9-10 weeks flowering, and NGT says that some let it go 10-11, so another 2-3 weeks for ww. The nlxbb says 8-10, so probably another 2 week on it.

I need to ask a stupid question. Why are you worried about the humidity? I grow outside and it is between 90 and 100% each and every night. I have never had a problem with mold, also the leaves are about as good as the roots with using the water available to them. I will say though you have a great grow going.

I worried about budrot and mold. The closet was starting to smell kinda musky/moldy, so I took measures to prevent moisture. I imagine outside, there is a lot better airflow than my tiny closet, which helps keep spores from invading your buds. However, I have heard outside growers are actually more susceptible to budrot than indoor growers. Do a forum search for "budrot", you'll see some pretty horrifying stories and pics of buds that were nurtured for months only to turn to a black mush.

Drizzle just wants to control his environment indoors every step you take towards having total control over the plant environment is a step closer to perfect crops.

Nice grow drizzle, hopefully my 1st goes as well as yours had! Incredible yields, good luck with them clones.
Can anyone help me out with what type of nutes would be the best. After reading about SH nutes im skeptical.
Does anyone know if SH's other products are expensive/junk?

drizzle thanks for the info, really don't know a thing about indoor grows. I usually have a nice breeze in the mountains and never have had a problem. Thanks again.

Day 94 (Day 57 Flowering): I harvested the biggest white widow and another NLxBB (the other NLxBB I harvested last Sat.). So no there is only one plant left in the closet. The first NLxBB I cut last week gave me about an ounce cause it didn't produce that well. The WW on the other hand was massive. After trimming and cutting, the WW weighed 270g wet. The other NLxBB came in around 120g I think, but I forget exactly - it's written somewhere. Heres a pic of the WW after trimming.

Nice job Drizzle, you did Awesome for your first grow, I can only hope that mine turns out half as good as yours, clones are looking great too.

Keep up the great work in your grows!

Congrats Drizzle, absolutely top notch. I'm making progress and am glad my plants are starting to look like your earlier stages....using the exact same technique by NGT. Drizz what are you putting in bottles? I need to do the same to raise some CO2 in my grow room. Is it just yeast and sugar water?
