Was super skunky, almost rank at first but has been getting sweeter, first kind of a hint of citrus, now more fruity sweet. Still has a skunk smell for sure though.

I love your pics man, great stuff. Any chance you could do a size comparison to something? I can kind of tell how big it is in relation to the wall but its kind of tough. I ask this because I have an almost 3 month vegged plant from seed in a 5 gallon bucket outdoors and was just concerned about its size in relation to something that's already flowering.

Thanks.

Yeah, I will get some tonight when the light come on. The last canopy shot that I put up was taken 8/14, they are starting to look more and more like actual buds.

Cool thanks man. I can post up a pic of her to see what you think if you want. She had a major rough start for the first month but is now growing normal but I cant tell if her size is ok.

Post away Reigning.

I guess its just that those clones have been going for a long ass time. I expected them to have more roots by now and start to show some signs of growth, all I have seen is leeching of the color from the leaves. I guess it is better than being dead :) We will see if the one I tanked out of the soil makes it, it will be my red cup experiment :D

she looks a little on the small side, how much lighting and what type are you using?

I am just getting started with seeds myself, usually get clones from the dispensary, so not much help there. But after 70 days I would expect a bush.

I switched her outdoors when her stem finally recouped from almost breaking so its just the sun now. Originally I wanted her outside to start with but she was too tiny and couldn't stand the wind one day and basically supercropped herself IMG_0489[1].jpg this picture alone can tell you why shes so stunted at 70 days I didn't know what I was doing lol. Fucked up lights fucked up soil fucked up watering the whole thing was a mess but I got her to finally heal.IMG_0521[1].jpg Enough to finally put her outside with basically natural lst lol.IMG_0529.jpgSo she had been through a lot but I started seeing more improvement.IMG_0543[1].jpg So then I decided to top her.IMG_0582[1].jpg Put her back outside, went camping for the week and came back to some good growth which is what it looks like now =). Kind of a doosy of a first grow and large post I know but I think all I can do is wait and see if she can finish out =/. I even got tiny clones from her that I am kind of just fucking with because I really just wanted to lollipop her a little bit.

Ahh, wow looking at that second pic it is amazing she is still around. You probably wont get to big a yield, but looks its definitely come around.

Its crazy how it totally created a whole entire new stem basically. The middle of the original stem dried up and the skin around it closed up to create the new one I cant believe what this plant can get threw its crazy. I am expecting it to compensate for all that though being it turn herm or shitty yield but that's alright considering it was only my first grow and just a bagseed.

Thanks Sticky. On the clones, I guess I am just used to people saying they got theirs to root in X days blah blah blah so I tossed out the first couple attempts before really giving them a proper chance. I know I do not have idea conditions for them, but at least if gives me another couple of plants to poke around with so I leave my flower plant alone :D.

Anyone that grows from seeds know if it is a problem that the one I planted sank straight away instead of floating for a bit? All of my veggie seeds have always floated for at least an hour or two.
