That would be me!!! Heavy sigh.
Cheers! Have you pics of yours?? Looking forward for the buds
WOWThat would be me!!! Heavy sigh.
Looks amazing
Think I'll let mine go as long as possible. Been waiting this far, feck it, go the whole way :)Patience is the hardest part of starting to grow. Everyone is like an expectant father at their 1st babie's birth...by your 3rd or 4th grow you will probably throw out half of your current stuff and not worry about much of anything! The "Whiskers" that seem so huge while growing shrink down, and the buds look massive. This is the easiest time to get fooled as they look big, but they haven't got the heft that you get on the last couple of weeks. I tend to let mine go longer than most people, but I think it makes a difference in taste and activity. Keep up the good work!
Bit of a random question but I reckon yous are the best guys to ask. Can the plant set off smoke alarms? Mines been going off randomly. Also, if you are in the same room as the plant, even if it's in a closetHeight is always a problem for a new grower. Especially in a tent. May I suggest you kink the main stems near the top end.. Bend them over. It wont hurt the plant or cause problems. The plant will stop growing vertically and focus on the lower regions. I recommend you go to growweedeasy.org they have a lot of info you can read. Their plant diagnosis tool is very informative. Also excessive nitrogen in the flowering stage can delay flowering causing you to wait longer for your harvest.
cheers and good luck!

Thanks so much. I'll take this advice. Just started work, will work on it when I'm home. I'll try bending it.

It's hard work. Same sameTrue That!! sometimes i feel like i am waiting again for my first to be born again.... I go to the cabinet several times a day, and have to force myself to walk away without opening the cabinet. I force my attention to the grow cabinet instead.
And now that i have two large colas to focus on, it is even harder.... i need at least another week probably two. Everything is still clear. Not even smokey, much less amber.
"open... open... open..." lol
Thanks for the words of encouragement.

Yup, Yup. The fact that i am 800 miles from home helps... they will make it at least until Saturday. I am hoping i can what i think will be a second week. :D

I've a quick question. My friend is waiting for his seedling to come up. Same scenario as myself. His is in a small tent. He (and i) am wondering how close or far should he put his light. It's 400w led. I have individual bulbs so I could put one pretty close to stop it stretching. What do you reckon?
Cheers. Got it sorted :)Depends on the type of detector. An ionizing g detector wont fo off but a rate of rise heat detector would.
Happy days! I moved my set up from the bedroom to downstairs sunroom. Well out of the way. Taking the plant out and seeing it probably with out the light. ...unreal. well chuffedMinimum 18"

I really like your theory. This input is great. I was thinking along this lines. Sort of confirms what i originally planned. Thanks so much mateI think one reason that everyone is so obsessed with the trichome color change is that, as a commercial grower, your return on your money drops off during the end stage. While the trichomes might indicate maturity, they don't indicate the end of the story since a LOT of the flavor and appearance develops during the last week or two...but those same two weeks can be used to start a new crop. It's sort of a trade off. A fully matured and finished bud is different than the usual bright green nuggets that are popular. Maybe it's more like good wine...you can make excellent wine with little aging, but you can't easily duplicate the taste of well aged wine. Each type has it's own flavors and it depends on people's tastes, for the most part. The difference between THC levels is pretty small between fully finished and regular finished...it's mostly a matter of preference. If it was a drag race, it might be the fresh bud's win, but only by a bumper.
Of course, this is all my opinion. I'm not an expert.
