damn, success is imminent now
just a few more weeks what color thrichs ya aimin for

 

[dfw-guy]

i wouldnt coubt it. Cfl's tend to drag the flowering period a lil bit more, not a huge diff but somewhat of a diff.

Ya we'll see when they're ready.

Wow dude the girls look great I hope my babies grow up to look that good +rep

nice nugs buddy.. whats your idea for yield, or harvest date?

I'm thinking a minimum of 1 oz, and a max of 3 oz. Harvest date is around Oct. 10th.

I'm thinking about harvesting the plants at different times. One for a head high, one for a body.

DFW-GUY, where did you get that triple light socket from? I'm gonna have to make something similar for each plant that's going into flowering.

 

[Tead]

His look like they came from an old 3 bulb lamp. You can easily make a 4 socket "light blossom" by screwing 3 "Y" socket adapters into each other.

Cheers

Here's where I got the socket from. Scroll to the bottom of the page.
Lamp Sockets - CLUSTER FIXTURE SOCKETS - TX Lamp parts

AWESOME!!! I'm all over it man. Thank you for that. I'm having to make more room for the plants do to the fact that they once again out grew the space they were in.

On the 4 socket CFL... Check out my grow there is a picture with the 3... I put that together with 4 bulbs orig and the 3y's the orig adapter to go straight from bulb to socket and the ext cord for under $25... They are all 23 watt 6500k CFL's

Looking good.....nice healthy looking plants and very nice buds keep up good job brother grower!

Flower day 48. Since I'm practicaly at 7 weeks of flowering, I doubt the plants will be at the optimal harvesting time at 8 weeks. I have yet to see an amber trich in any of the pics. So I'll keep feeding them nutes until I think they're ready, then flush for 1 week. That's the plan, and if I had to give a number I'd say they're going to flower for 9-10 weeks..

Hey everyone lets play a game, everybody give they're own estimate on when you think they'll be ready to harvest. If you want to try and be specific about it then I'm talking about when the trichs will be more cloudy than anything. You don't have to participate, I'm just looking for estimates to see everyone's opinion and help myself plan out this final stretch.

Pics
First these are pics showing the height of the plants. I tried to keep the camera level w/ the plant so where the plant reaches to is how tall it is

Oh, and sorry that the PH got so messed up. IMO they're not very pretty anymore

I am thinking from the looks, another two to three weeks till harvest. You could let them go a bit longer though. Either way, you will be enjoying some terrific smoke soon bro, great work and excellant pics.

Thanks for saying you still think they look good lol.
Ya I'm guessing the harvest will be in a month too. Not that I want to wait that long, I just know it will pay off lol. Damn sativa. No one should have to wait 12 weeks (really 11 + cure) for harvest lol.

So I was thinking about my future yield. I just did the math for the first time and if I get the magical (and impossible for me) 1 gram/watt yeild then I would have 4.20 ounces How cool is that?
A 3 oz yield would be .71 gram/watt
A 2 oz yield would be .48 gram/watt
A 1oz yield would be .24 gram/watt

So based off those numbers I'm pulling for a little over 2oz. Though just 1oz per plant seems a bit low. hmm. What do yall think?

i'm not going to say until your at 60 days, this will give a better idea, just remember they will gain some density within the next two weeks. It may seem that they've stopped growing but they are just preparing for thier final shot of growth prior to finishing their life.but eithert way the pink hairs are sick!!

 

[GMT1975A]

DFW-Guy, you can figure closer to 3-4 ozs per plant bro, judging from the looks of your plants.

Hell ya man, pink and white hairs everywhere lol. Mostly white though. I want to think I'm growing WW but I know there's no way lol.
