DeDe, You did a fantastic job . Too bad you don't smoke. screw the pat on the back.. I would give you a bear hug :hug: if I could. I have a feeling Mechy is going to be a happy camper until his supply runs out.

Keeper, shit! Put a ring on her already would ya!

Looks like you are gona have a decent yield.

Congrats Mechanical on a successful grow. Now it's just a matter of final weight and smoke report. Stay tuned ladies and gentleman.

update on my C99
my buds are pretty small.. I had my lights too far away thinking I was gona get the same amount of stretch as others have. So last night I lowered my light.. these last 10 days she should pack some heat. I hope!

the chop is now complete. I smoked a few hits of scissor hash when it was all done. holy smoke! Screwed me up pretty good. But still got shit done afterwards. That was 4 hrs ago and i still feel it. Pretty impressed with the end result. For only my 2nd DWC attempt i'm not complaining.. And compared to my first DWC adventure I am pretty sure i've come close to doubling my weight. A couple weeks and I'll know for sure. Although i do have room for improvement, next time i'll trim off all the bottom tiny shit. In a scrog it gets hardly any light and it was fluffy. the very bottom branches that extended beyond the scrog that got better light, were much better than buds halfway up the plant but didn't get any light. The top nugs exceed my expectations in denseness.

So here she was before she got the axe.

look fantastic mech! hows it smoke? i currently have a female seeds c99 on day 46 from first pistals.. you guys all go from first pistals on ur count right? just making sure so i can hit the c99 right at the 52-55 day mark ive heard 60 days is to long for the "c99 high" and if its 52-55 from flip then thats now lol but seems they can def go the extra week just dont want to wait to long heard the trichs can be tricky on c99 to get it right

Nice to see more Cindy growers! I've got one that is at 28 days from flip. I usually count from first pistils on all my plants, however it seems that most of the guys I've talked too about the Cindy have all been counting from flip, so I decided to do that with her. I have a clone of my Cindy as well as a sister plant in veg still and my plan is to do a test with them. I will count the clone from first pistils and compare with the one flowering now. Honestly my Cindy was mature when she was cloned and when she went into flower so it only took her about 4 days to start to push out some pistils. I personally doubt I'll be able to tell the difference in harvesting only 4-5 days later, but I could be very wrong and it really may change.

PSST TC, the flowering cycle begins when the lights are flipped bro

Pssst......... I'm not gonna get into a big arguement but I believe that flowering begins when the plants begin to flower(form real pistils), and that they start to transition when you flip the lights. Based on what I've read over the years transition is the proper term for the period before they start to show pistils, it even refers to it on the side of your nute bottle. This is the period of time it takes the plant to build up enough of the flowering hormones to begin.

Outdoor plants don't have lights to flip and they are considered to be flowering once they start to form flowers.......

Counting from when you see flowers eliminates the variable of plant maturity from the equation. Some plants take weeks after a 12/12 flip to begin flowering because they are not mature, were as mature genetics will usually only take days. This is the whole reason 12/12 from seed takes weeks for the plants to start to show flowers and it doesn't happen 5-7 days after they come out of the seed.

Though if we all go by the trichs, and how the buds look to judge when to harvest our crops it really doesn't matter. I might harvest a plant I counted from pistil at 8 weeks, that someone else would have considered to be at 9 weeks from flip, either way if the trichs are done its done.

You already made my point....the first time light is denied for a long enough period the pfr hits critical and flowering cycle begins...the time you refer to as transitional is just the time required for the flowers to form. 12/12 from seed simply is delayed as the plants will not flower until its roots and shoots are in enough mass to insure sustainability/survivability. It is pretty cut and dry as the amount of hormone is either there or not. Once it is, flower has initiated. The transitional phase as you term it is in reality regarding the "stretch", the time when the plants elongate and this practice is done by the plant to give room for the floral clusters as well as allowing air circulation to help combat mold. As you are aware this stretch/transitional phase starts at the flip and continues past the appearance of the floral clusters but it and flowering were initiated when the hormone reached the critical amount.

As to when to chop, with c99 and several other strains noted for the psychedelic properties, it is best to chop when 10-20 % cloudy and rest clear, to insure the trippiness is at peak.

In the standard harvest practices most employ, harvest is done PAST the peak potency window.

Not arguing as you are a friend to me. Just sharing knowledge so we can learn together and grow the best we can for ourselves. I do possess lotsa experience and education in botany, especially in cannabis, and share it much as I can. I still study botany and it application to cannabis for at least 2 hours a day everyday. And apply it daily.

One love my brother

Now that i'm a few days into the cure process. I went ahead and weighed everything in.

From my single C99, method of grow 3 gallon DWC under a scrog. Veg 52 days, Flower 52 days.
I got a total of 177.8 grams or 6.35 oz's
plus an additional 11.8 grams of hash from the fine trim.
overall, more than doubled the amount i got from my first DWC attempt. I am super stoked.

pic of the hash I just finished :)
