Day 23 of flower and everything is green..
..well, almost everything. I had a couple of spots get a touch of light burn. No biggie, imo.
Buds are starting to fill in nicely.
My main concern at this point is just trying to keep them contained! :laughing:

Hows temps? I recently built a cfl cab and I'm surprised at how hot they get. Yours looks good though.

Cozy Amnesia, the temps stay about three or four degrees hotter than the ambient temp in the room.
I usually keep the ambient temp somewhere between 72-74F.

Temps in my box stay around 78F in the winter since we keep it pretty cozy around here.
And sometimes when i want to stimulate color change during flower i move the box to a cooler place in the house.
One particular spot keeps the box running a consistent 68-72F during the winter months.

Thanks MeltingPOT, and make yrself @ home!

Day 27 and the pungent smell has arrived.



Pheno#1 has the loveliest aroma. Very interesting, can't quite put my finger on it..
Smells like a mountain holler for those of you who are country enough to know..
Imagine all the smells of a permaculture fused together and multiplied..

Pheno#2 and #3 aren't quite as pungent and they both exhibit a fruity/skunky smell so far.

this looks like a sweet garden. so how tall r the plants now?

Funny you ask. Pheno #2 is way taller than anticipated.
It is definitely in her genes. Very stretchy.
I built another box today to put her in and have her lst'd all over the place with those blue paper clips.

Pheno #1 has very little stretch and is the shortest.
and Pheno#3 is just in between with a medium height and stretch.

I'll try to get a pic of both of the boxes side by side when the sun comes..

YESS, looking amazing man. Youre getting me really psyched on popping these seeds.... hmm so many to choose from and so little space :D

I let your harvest make the decision for me :smoker:

great job man keep it up

..someone asked about plant height.

These photos were taken just before watering.


pheno3 measuring in just at 2 feet. heaviest producer so far.



pheno2 stands about 24.75 inches and is lst'd all over the place.
She is definitely on the mend as she was really getting smothered in the box with all the other girls.
Now her and two of her sisters share a room.
All of which are looking much healthier with the extra breathing space..

Also, i've decided to get an inline fan/filter combo that will control two boxes. Perhaps three. Possibly these two and a small veg box.
I figure one 4" inline will move enough air for both of them.
Hell, im only using small cpu fans atm, so an inline should be plenty capable.

Thoughts? Stay tuned..

Your grow has really motivated me to make one of these rubbermaid cabs. I may have missed it but what size are the pots you used, 1 or 2 gallons?

Quickgreen, welcome to icmag...i feel like i've been here long enough to say that now =P

These pots are 1gal or maybe just under..

Oh, and btw, those pics are at a full 4 weeks of bud.

no. I mean I would plant eather some clones or some dank seeds outdoors in a very very sunny spot around july/august then by oct/nov I would have 1 foot tall bushy plants full of buds. hopefuly.

so I would try to get my plants to look all bushy like urs look but with out the box.

because last year summer I grew three 4 foot tall cheese monster plants and I was scard about it all the way to november. coz of the thought that the gov might be watching me.:yoinks: but in nov I reeped a sweet nice harvest.:woohoo:

So this year I wanted to try and harvest big buds on smaller plants.

So what I am doing is copping ur grow set up but outdoors and later in the year.
also I might do a scrog plant too.

anyway I hope this clears up my last post.
