So the weight is in... 5 jars, 8.17 oz! I know I'm going to lose some weight during the cure, but I'm pretty pleased. GS, you were pretty much spot on with your visual assessment. I'll post some pics when the cure is done and I can post the new weights. Thanks for all of your feedback...

Thanks for the feedback guys. There are definitely too many white hairs on the top buds, but what you guys didn't see was the bottom of the plant. It was over ripe and ready to go. I used a scope and up top was definitely early b/c they were clear. Not really clear, but clear. The bottom...

This was my Christmas Tree. This is just the top portion of the plant. Ill take a picture of the full haul once she's dried and cured. Enjoy everyone! Questions? Comments?

Merry Christmas!! Merry Christmas y'all. I decided to cut her down one day early. Pics to come!

That's definitely one of the reasons I was letting them drink it down as much as possible. I want all of the food to get sucked up, and I figured starting three weeks out was enough time to let it go clear. They've definitely gotten more frosty and the sun leaves are yellowing now. The bad...

8 more days till I can actually harvest her! I've been running RO water through her, but I've also been letting her drink everything in the reservoir before putting more in. I don't think I'm really starving her, but do any of you have experience with starving your plants right before harvest...

@Hopeful - Yeah, I wouldn't harvest her any other way than the right way. I use a 30x micro to check trichs, but I find that on plants like this, the best way to get a all around better harvest is to wait until about 85% of the pistils are orange/red, and I always harvest in the morning. I've...

Thanks for the props guys. @GS - It's all bonus for me lol. This is really my passion and I hope to compete one day.

Right on. I have her tied, but staking probably would have worked better. I've also considered using the tomato cylinder things (what are those called?). Based on what you see, what kind of yield do you think I can expect? I'm estimating a 1/2 lb max.

New Pics! So, it's important to remember that this is just one plant. I'm posting new pics because one of her branches has become so heavy that it hangs almost upside down now. I don't want to try and tie her up anymore because I'm so close to harvest. Here they are! The branch on the...

Today I added 5 gal of clean RO water, no nutes. I expect to only do this one or two more times before harvest. They are drinking really heavy right now, and I find my self adding 5 every three days to keep the pump spraying. On the next grow I was thinking about adding molasses. Anyone have...

Not posting any pics today because they still look the same. I harvest in three weeks, so I was thinking about going ahead and doing the flush. Should I start running clean RO water through it now?

@Ib - I actually put reflective lining around it at one point, but it was messing up the air flow and temps. I have been thinking about attaching CFLs to the sides to help penetrate the undergrowth. @Green - I don't know where she's from. I picked her up from San Diego Herbal Alternatives...

Thanks for the welcomes everyone!

I really hope so. She's looking pretty strong now, but none of the pistils have started dying yet, so I think she has a some room to grow. Every day she looks frostier!
