Hi, This is my first grow in a small 30x30x120 cm tent. Currently it's week 5 and things are going quite good I think. I noticed some yellow spots on some of the leaves, do I need to worry about them ? Greetz!

Starting to see more and more white pistils so I guess pre-flowering is started. Gave the first watering of the week and added 2ml/l alga bloom, let's see what it gives.

I got some brown pistils on the main cola in the middle. Is this normal ? Seeing more and more white pistils :-) I hope to see some buds soon !

Things are going good! Buds are starting to form :) Gave her 2ml of plagron pk13/14 yesterday, let's see what it gives. I should have done some more LST because she's outgrowing the tent. I will keep this in mind for the next one :)

The little bud sites are starting to swell a little. I lost 2-3 leaves at the bottom, I guess that's not an issue?

It's not easy to take pictures due to the small space. Currently I just tie the the branches down to avoid that they touch the lamps. The buds are starting to swell bud I don't expect to much because there is only 70w of cfl light. I'll be happy with 15-20gr of dry bud :-) When this plant is finished I'll buy a bigger tent and a 250w hps :-D

I got a 60 x 60 x 160 cm tent with a 150w HID lamp today because I want to grow 2 plant the next round. I will finish this plant in the new tent offcourse :-) Will the new lamp give me a bigger yield or is it to late for that ?

I got a handmicroscope to look at the trichomes but I can't see if they are cloudy or not. What do you think ? There are still quite some white pistils so I really don't know :) Don't want to harvest to soon.

I can't add much comment here since it was the first time growing but for the first time it went quite good. I'm excited to test it after 14 weeks of growing :)

I decided to cut her at day 95 and now everything is drying inside the growtent. The grow went quite nice and the most important thing is that I learned alot :) I'm really excited to know the final weight and to test the product after all those weeks! I'll update in a week or 2 with some more details about the final weight. I dried 5 days in the tent at 40% humidity and 22 degrees Celcius until the little buds popped off. I put them in jars 2 days ago and currently I have 64 grams. How much will I lose during the curing ? 000

Hi! Good harvest!! My Northern light is in the 45 day... The difference with your plant at 45 days of life is the height, only has 40cm ... why could that be? But the buds are bigger.

Bstonercommented8 years ago
@SsS_SsS, Thanks. I'll check everyday from now on. I suppose the pistils need to become more amber also ?

I get them as soon as they start coming out it won't be bad and will be different when she gets older. I've run 2 northern light autos and both them babies went almost 100 days they were beast to. She sure looks good!!

@HerbFarmer, Thanks man! I suppose I still have 3-4 weeks to go. Currently I'm at 10 :) so far, so good!

Just letting you know she's a female. Perfectly normal. Looking very nice. Keep up the good work man. 🌱🍁💨

@Sumgrower420, Thanks! I thought the pistils only darkened at the end of the life cycle :)

I wouldn't worry too much. It looks like a bit of splash from watering to me. They don't like nutes on the leaves. Just give it a spray with fresh water on the lower leaves after watering. Great pics of your LST method I'm going to give that a go with my current grow.
Bstoner
Bstonercommented8 years ago
@flecko, Thanks! I'll be a bit more careful when watering her. Currently I'm not giving nutes but I'll buy some flower nutes this week and hopefully start giving her those from week 7 if the buds start to show. That was the easiest way to do some LST by bending the wire around the ledge of the pot :)
