This was my first grow. Started a seed of Afghan Skunk and two seeds of Galaxy in paper towels, and when tap root popped out they went into Rapid Rooter. *Tent Setup* 5gal DWC buckets with 6inch net pot lids 4x4x7 tent 1000watt Quantum digital ballast Hydrocrunch XXL 6inch Air Cooled Hood Active Air 6inch centrifugal fan 6inch carbon scrubber VIVOSUN 6inch mixed flow fan 1035 GPh commercial airpump 2x 4inch air stones per bucket 2x circulation fans 1 small clip type fan I'm just making this diary for reference purposes. And so I have somewhere I have a backup of my pictures. Everything went very well until I flipped them to 12/12 and all hell broke loose. First thing that went to shit was the cheap ballast that I was originally using decided to almost catch fire. Good thing I was around when lights came on or else it could have been a terrible disaster. After that happened, I had to get every and any light that I had and get it in there, also borrowed friends cheap Led. I ordered a replacement ballast and it took a week to get here. During this time they continued to get bigger, alot bigger then I wanted to go in to flower. Going into 12/12 the 2 galaxy had N tox, and I didn't realize it, and when I finally caught it and corrected it one pulled through and the other one did not. The galaxy continued to be smaller, slower growing, and stunted the whole rest of the grow, and the yield suffered tremendously. The other two plants did fine, even with all the problems I had.

Looks good. I'm planting my Galaxy Fem this fall. Let us know how your buds turn out.

@Boston_FarmR, I bet you will thoroughly enjoy growing and smoking Galaxy. It was pretty easy and the yield was pretty good also!

Bro, seeing your week 10 pics all I can say is that they already look like sexy young ladies, even though they had a tough childhood really they seem like they will bloom into full grown, tight & dense little trouble makers. Maybe taking the light away made them appreciate it more but what I can see is that these could get heavy ! Looking forward to harvest and smoke reports!
