Hey folks!

I flipped the switch on these babies 7 weeks ago. The tall one is Northern Lights from marijuanaseeds.nl and the other one is a locally bred purple kush. They had some photoperiod stress at first cause I gradually shifted the light time a few hours, no big deal though. Also had heat stress the first few weeks unfortunately. So I'm thinkin 2 weeks on the short LST'd one and maybe 3 on the tall Northern Lights? Does that look right? This is my first indoor grow.


Details:

Vegged Purple Kush under cfl's then 400w MH, starting Nov 8, flipped Dec 19, so about 5-6 weeks. The NL sprouted on Nov 21, so it only vegged for like 3.5 wks, but grew real fast. Same lights.

Flowering lights: 400w HPS, along with 500 watts of Supplementary CFL's in a balanced spectrum. I have four plants, another one just like the tall one and another LST'd Purple kush just like the one pictured. Good ventilation. Nutrients: Fish and seaweed blend from Neptune's Harvest, Fox Farm Big Bloom, and Molasses.

So what do you guys think? Are they looking decent for 7 weeks? They've had a number of problems, but the last few weeks I've really had my setup dialed in so they've just been chillin. Any thoughts on how much longer they have? And how much dankness they might give me? Thanks for any thoughts!

And one more of the lower buds of the N.L:




It's hard to see the buds on the kush cause there's so many small leaves. HOpe you get the idea though.

Also, I didn't put in a really good comparison object. I'm six foot two and have big hands, so keep that in mind. Also, the fan leaves on the Northern Lights are HUGE!!! so the buds don't look that big in comparison...

Hell yeah u are! That kush looks like it might have liked a lollipoping. Either way, that smells good through my screen.

yeah you're right I shoulda separated all the colas better. Next time! The Kush smells really dank and strong. The NL took a long time to start smellin at all, but now it has the most subtle delicious and kinda fruity odor. Not like a specific fruit really, but really good! Any predictions as to how much bud I might pull from these two?

Yup! Its acually considered one of the lowest odor strains. I did it once, dont even remember a smell. Plus its Lights! A CLASSIC! Have a good Superbowl, pun intended:)

hard to tell from the pictures. how tall are they? i would guess 11/4 to 2 oz each. it may sound dumb but i use a 2 quart canning jar as a reference. it will hold about 2 ozs of bud. you can get a good idea by holding it up and seeing what you think it would take off the plant to fill it. ok you can stop laughing at me now. LOL.

Well the tall lady is just over four feet. The other one is between 2.5 and 3 feet, but much bushier with many more 'semi-colas'. They're in standard 5-gallon buckets, so that can give a pretty good idea of size.
