It looks like the hempy is going to give me the densest buds again. Working with Emerald gave me more confidence. That'll come in handy when I get to NOLA. They'll respond differently in the swamplands. 
Look Sue! I early harvested my Durban Poison because I needed the space and she had some spider mites on her. The Northern Lights is next week and the Red Cherry berry will be harvested in 3 weeks. So the leaves of the Durban Poison will be used for tea and salads. And the flowers I don't know yet... Well I could make some RSO out of her but I think that's more of a waste of resources because the alcohol was damn expensive. And well, the Durban Poison has not much THC and almost none CBD so what do you think I should do with it?
My little first plants!
Now get them posted on your journal so we can celebrate in style. 
I always knew that growing Cannabis needs a lot of effort, time and resources and that it was pretty damn difficult. But here I am, doing my harvest and already prepared for the upcoming 20 harvests! I never thought it was that much fun to do! It did cost me a lot of money though but it is well worth it! Maybe I'll even make some money out if this!I'm so pleased you shared your pictures with us first rik.
There's no thrill like the very first harvest. You have plans too. All that stuff you bought for the next part of the adventure. .
I'll grant you, we can make it look like more work than it needs be. Lol! The call it "weed" for a reason. You can toss a seed almost anywhere on the planet and get buds in the end. 
And you don't even smoke. Someone special is going to really appreciate that harvest. neikodog tells me the Durbin Poisin is an excellent smoke.
My cat is almost terrifying calm... CannaCat rides again!Cats are notoriously drawn to cannabis. There must be more of the terpene prevalent in catnip in some strains. Hmmmm..... Durbin Poisin must have an interesting profile.
You had yourself convinced that growing cannabis was difficult?
I'm proud of you rik. Well done.
Another week or two and the tent will be free. 
How delightful to bring more cosmic awareness into my joyful grow. They used a soft driver (700 mA) for efficiency - he thinks they've achieved near record efficiency with this one. It has a bonus of expansiveness in the future, since the power supply has 300 watt output. It'll accommodate two more extra COBs. 
Thanks Keltic! I really appreciate your love!I saw some news about that, I was not sure it would happen, good news . I have a feeling you would be a good supplier, you have a good attitude. And a good Cat-itude cat.
Good morning everyone.
Emerald's pistils have begunto change.
That's a good thing because the big clone is almost ready to flower and
I heard from Dan at Timber Lights. My new lights are being shipped today!!!!
He's sending me lights for the tiny closet and both flowering tents. We're going to leave the flowering shelves under my CFLs. As per his email to me I'll be recieving:
For the tiny closet: 200 Watt Vero (20) COB kit, using the new Vero29 Generation 7 Type "C" COBs in a 3500K color temperature, which Dan believes is perfect for the autos I'll be growing in there non-stop as soon as I get the tents switched around.
Flowering Tent #1 gets a 200 Watt Citizen (4) COB kit, giving me 50 watts per square foot and gives me a good amount od PPFD (a little more than necessary, but we won't complain about that will we?). This unit was built with 3000K color temperature, giving me a bit more red to aid in flower growth.
Flowering Tent #2 gets special treatment. Dan's trying out a new light, and I'm one of four growers he's testing this light out with. It's a 200 Watt Vero (4) COB Special Edition that uses a 1750 color temp Vero29 Food Decor series LED that's very high in red spectra. He claims it puts off a red light akin to what one would expect to see on the surface of Mars.
*contented sigh* Now I simply await delivery and then we can start redistributing the extra lights. Still no word from Kyle at Advanced as to the disposition of that panel I won for MOTY. I may need to light a little fire under him.
Kyle and his frustration aside, Dan is the man in my world today. I have bigger news afoot, and if it pans out the way I expect I'll be back with that later. Until then, may your day have the joyous outlook mine's already taking on. This anticipating miraculous events as a matter of course is the most intriguing way of living I've ever undertaken. I'm thrilled that so many of you join me every day. It makes my little miraculous events seem even more so to be able to share with you.
Now get out there and share that joy I know you feel bubbling up from the depths. Make your piece of paradise shine. I'll be doing my part over her on the banks of the Mighty Mon.
............. Isn't life sweet?
I now have an exemplary supply for my 2:1 CBD:THC ratio. 
This is not the best news I'll have to share with you. I'm waiting on the phone call first. Continue on with your joyful day.
Brighten our day, and then do it again later on? You're a busy woman Sue. 
You have no idea Luke. I've taken to playing with the universe, and it's accelerated the energy stream enough that I'm preparing to start running to keep up with all this delicious joy.
I have made it a life goal to NOT start running unless there is a bear chasing me
