Michigan, your ladies are looking great for a 100th grow let alone a first time. Great job.

I was reading through the thread and read the part about your dad and you working on your setup together and it made me smile. My old man just stopped by my place to see my recent handy work. Him and I havent always seen eye to eye and MJ was something that really brought us closer together, so i just think its cool when i hear about that dynamic with others.

It is funny when they come up with an idea, that in any other terms would make sense, but doesnt work in growing, so you have to spend an hour explaining to them why it wouldnt/doesnt work. Its fun.

It's brought us a lot closer especially since I moved to school several hours away for most of the time except weekends.
 
So I probably have been posting the wrong flowering times, may or may not have but it's 8 weeks since 12/12 switch. Here's some pics of candy and northern lights. Gonna harvest in 10-15 days starting to cloud trichomes.

Very nice for a first grow, I'm guessing you did some reading here before you started.
Have you thought about what you will be doing with the soil after the harvest? My advice is to use the same soil again, add some worms (red wrigglers) to your pots and create a mulch/companion plant layer...transition to a living soil. Going organic will make yo weed dank and save you bank.
How do I find more information on that?
 
So I harvested the can't today. This was the least frosty of the three. I have 8 in veg as of now too, first week of veg. Looks great super happy for it being my first grow. This is the delicious candy. I will be harvesting 2 northern lights Sunday.
