Thanks, Fitznick- just had our 1st growers meeting off another page (my state has legal rec. as of Dec.15th) and that was amazing-such diversity in technique-traded seeds,samples, shared tips, had drinks and food. The way it should be.Bunch of folks all in on their favorite hobby.

Ok, now its getting to be Zen time- Got lazy this AM. Didn't check my girls, so came home tonight & went in stealth mode(dark period) with led flashlight(shaded by hand so as not to wake the girls- and watered them in the dark( counting in my head as pump ran, to top off- Lots of practice) They went thru 6 1/2 gal. since yesterday AM.( that's on 4 4 gal. buckets) Took pics in total darkness(other than flash going off and appears 1st 2 plants are in pre-flower, with other 2 right behind. About freakin time!! been 17 days since 12/12 flip.But all my topping probably slowed things down- but many ,many budsites as a result- shooting for the 16 zip+ grow. And no LST or Scrog this round(do to time)- JUST Scissors, fingernails, and ROCK & ROLL

Thanks for the positive comments- so many ways to do this and I seem to have found a great combination( for me) that works. Takes a lot more work than people realize and always refining my methods to try to make the workload less. Good luck to all in their endevors

2 weeks into cure- final dry yield was 12 0z.s- off 4 plants; pretty happy for 1st run.

Grew 5" in 3 days(30" avg.)- day 38- Eating and drinking dialed in- steady Ph and PPm dropping~ 100 per day- gonna have Height issues again if stretch continues at this rate- flipped on 3/10, so 8 days @ 12/12- have grown 8" since 3/10, so in. per day avg. !

@Ripper, Thanks man, hope I didn't shock them with all the trimming- but they are very healthy. Do take a lot of maintenance with single buckets compared to one reservoir.

Day 34- eating and drinking hard- had to addback 1 gal. per plant+ food( had dropped to 550 ppm in 3 days; back to avg. 800 ppm

Day 31- Addback 1 gal. with food- flipped to 12/12- @ 24" avg. Been topping like crazy with no apparent shock And no deficiencies showing

Day 81- not sure which week- The stuff is working!! LOL-Will get back to you with dry weight!

Fired up chainsaw & cut 3 days ago- trimmed for 2 1/2- Went wild and stripped over 70 popcorns- Had to take pruning shears to cut main trunks- got 40+ top colas-(hanging) + 4 trays little guys+ over 2lbs. wet shake(sugar leaves and Tiny buds)Enough to make a 20lb. 2' by 5' stick of butter or 400 doz. Toll House cookies LOL!! On to the Next!!Total-81 Days!!-White Widow Auto's Rock!!

In 5 days (day 29) we are hitting 2 FT.-Been topping everything in sight, to spread and slow growth- Changed res. on each- running avg. PH-6.0-ppm-750-Ignored during WW Chop(3 days of HELL) and got back today. All is good! Just burnt from dealing with the other( 3 days trimming ,drying, too much trim to deal with(talking 2' by 6' ft. stick of butter or 400 dozen chocolate cookies!!LOL
