My girl is coming down. The pics of the trichones I took using a magnifyer for my phone I found on ebay. Less than $10. 60X-100X Mini Zoom Clip Phone LED Digital Camera Microscope Lens Loupe Magnifier.
So far only the main cola been cut down. Cutting the rest as I go. The dry weight of the buds from the main branch came in at 33.58 grams. I am hoping to get 200 grams dry weight from her but think that might be wishful thinking. Has an excellent stoning buzz that turns into a great high. I will post the final weight when i can.
Started another white widow auto plant and its going into flowering already. Using General Organics feed this time with Real Growers Recharge to compare the two grows. Same tent and light as this plant so should be a good experiment.
With Crop King seeds, all I can say is they are great. Thier site didnt want to take my debit card and one of the girls that works there was very helpful getting my order thru. Then it was quick shipping. I bought 5 seeds, they sent me 7 every time. No complaints at all with them and I have and will continue to buy from Crop King Seeds.
Update 3-8-2018
Harvested the last of the buds today. After trimming ended up with 114 grams which should dry to around 35 to 40 grams. Already have 75 grams dry and in glass jars. I am expecting close to 4 oz total.
I did a cost estimate/yield for this grow. On average a 1/8 bag goes for around $40 or more around here. Four oz is 32 1/8 bags or @ $1280 to buy. The grow set up was pretty much already paid for from past grows. My expenses was a new 600W LED light, @ $300, grow bag and soil, @ $50 and nutrients for another @ $50. The seed Was @ $10. Cost around $410. That leaves me with an $870 saving from buying my weed on the streets. I love that!
Have another White Widow grow started but this one is being done differently. The lights will be run 16/8 instead of 24 hours a day like this grow was. Nutrients are General Organics with Real Growers Recharge. This will be an experiment with the goal of hitting that 200 gram grow from one plant. CKS claims the plant will produce 400 grams indoors.

Final tally is 114 grams dried buds. Not bad for a plant that was pretty much fed and left alone. :)
Every grow I try to learn something new. I am still very new at growing and its a lot different than when I was a kid 30 years ago. This grow has taught me that it is normal for the leaves to yellow and fall off at the end of the grow. The plant is telling you that she is entering the final stage of her life. My last grow I freaked out and harvested a plant to early from this. When the fan leaves started yellowing and falling off I didnt freak out this time but instead I researched and with lots of gooling and reading I learned that its natural for this to happen. :)
@Excalibur, buds are nice and dense and sticky. Still have that hayish smell and taste but as they cure it will improve. The buzz from them is outstanding. Couple tokes off a bowl will give a good stone for about an hour that turns into a good high for a long while.
Looks great! I took a chance with CKS after lots of research on where to buy and they definitely didn’t disappoint. I also got 7 instead of 5 which is nice.. that’s lots of extra weed if you get em all to germ, which I have so far! I’m currently growing their Purple Kush and Super Silver Haze and I can’t wait for them to finish! I just ordered their CB Dutch Treat as well. None of which have a grow on here so I get to be a guinea pig. I’m sure I’ll order more soon enough, there are many that I wanna try. White widow is definitely one I’m just not sold on auto strains.
@no1ramsfan, this is the first auto I ever grown and I like it. No screwing around with light schedule makes it nice and I kept the girl lighted 24/7. Totally sold on them now. Have another white widow auto already started and I ordered some Northern light autos and today I put one germinated seed in soil so hopefully in a couple days I will see it sprouted and growing.
Also have some Crown Royale fem seeds from CKS that I will be growing in my second tent soon and some Regular blueberry and Purple Kush that I want to try out. Going to be following your Purple Kush grow :)
There is not many CKS grows going on. Best of luck with the rest of this grow chopdoc.
I also have a CKS NL grow going on and they are at week 3-4 of flower. I water with AN Nutrients every 36-48hrs. Using 1/3 to 1/2 strength.
Your wW looks great for using so much less Nutrients. Will def see how it all ends up and adjust accordingly.
Trichomes coming in the next week 👍🏻
@JusGrowIt88, my last grow my oldest plant was badly damaged with nute burn. Ever since then all my grows get nutes once a week and plain water the rest of the week. This is the first full grow on that style and it seems to be working well for me.
I liked growing Northern Lights. Was my first grow in over 30 years :)
This is a KILLER looking grow. I see some experience shining through here. Nice job! I see we are both utilizing the 24/0 light schedule with our autoflowers. Not many of us do this beginning to end of grow. I am attempting my first "topless" SCROG (trying to bend instead) with 6 different strains right now. It would be cool if you would like/follow along and make a suggestion or two. - Zannabis7
