Did anyone on their first grow (with either hybrids or indicas) get to 10/11 weeks of flower and think what the fuck is all this 8 weeks about?

Honestly im thinking/hoping they'll be done in another week or two bringing it to about 13 wks but they're spitting out more new growth now than they have all grow 0.0

Also SOS considering a new light and would love some recommendations for a 4x4? Preferably $200-$300ish range or anything close enough to that range someone has good experience/good words on? I did ask previously but i was stoned as fuck and have been ever more so stoned each day my first batch cures lol

Still trucking along.
A little spider might damage but no webs. At least not yet..

Very lovely - Is that the fan up high on the left? do you have any air flow under the canopy at all?

Thinking of getting a clip on fan or two (something smaller and less space consuming than my current standing fan)

Love the rods to help with the negative pressure im assuming? What are you usingto clip them on/did you make it yourself?

8 week strains are fairly rare.

Those lights you linked are no good. Better to wait til you have more money if you want LED or get an old school single ended 1000w HPS will light it up awesome

yes, the fan is on Yo yo's so i can adjust the height during the grow. Its a box fan so is blows all angles. No i dont have one underneath.

Yes the horizontal rods are great. The white ones are from an old grow tent frame and ive just zip tied them and again can adjust the height easily. they work for neg air pressure and also to clip or tie things to etc.

Save your money and buy something decent. Both of those are Shit and won’t do a 4x4

Hey mate.. Yeah, I'm 7 weeks since flipping and I reckon I have at least 4 to 6 weeks to go. (Amnesia haze is known for taking its own time)
Fan wise, I've got 2 of those Vivosun Clipons, one osciallating under the canopy, pointed up thru, and the other oscillating above. It's my first grow in a couple decades, and well... lets put it this way, they are healthy, small (only got 300w LED at present) but healthy.

I took the bottom off and duct taped a big fuck off garbage bag for oils etc. Mate used my kief and made a tonne of oil for me and butter. (I don't smoke anymore)
Trims pretty good I think. Can always hand trim up after and I watch it drinking beer. Win win
I do the same and a bucket for the buds. I dry ice my kief and squeeze it for rosin. I’m to lazy to make oil and stuff these days. I really need to do it I’ve got 3 garbage bags of kief and I just threw out 3.

You thought of composting? Knf mnf style for outdoors/ living soil potting mixes? Seems to be big in the states.
