Its lookin real nice now, hairs are turning colour slowly but surely. This next couple of weeks is going to be hard to keep my scissors away from the grow room! But Im going to be strict with myself and WAIT! :bigjoint:
Im getting some better pics now by using the tungsten setting and lowering the light exposure on my camera

Temps 29'C - A tad too high, but nothing I can do about it
Humidity 46%
PPM 1200 - I have lowered the bloom a bit and added some grow to give it some N, leaves are yellowing quite a lot.
ph 5.8

Buds have really fattened up this week and developed a nice fruity mango sort of smell, it smells so so nice! they are sticky as hell too. The trichs are turning cloudy now, Im thinking maybe 7-10 more days and shes coming down! oooooooooohhhhhh yyyeeeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh! :leaf: :leaf: :leaf:
As for the soil vs hydro thing, im well into the hydro thing from now on, no more luggin big bags of mud into my house in the middle of winter! this hasnt been a fair comparison really cos the soil grow went tits up, the best weed comes from soil grows if its done right, but for user friendlyness hydro kicks arse!!
Im going to let the plant drink the last of the nute water in the rez, then flush for a week with plain ro water before the big day! Next update will be harvest time :D :D :D

They are 60 milky 40 clear, going for a head high, the hairs are mostly white still, but that seems to be the strain, i think it will be about 30% red brown by the weekend...
