This is my first grow attempt. I have learned alot from this site and some ebooks and have made it to this point with little difficulty. I have constructed a grow tent, a cfl light fixture, all from scratch. Started with 4 bagseeds that were all females. I did not do any topping as i believe i should try it the natural way first and go from there. I am including a bunch of photos to show the progress so far and my setup. Let me know what you think??? Any comments are greatly appreciated

368 watts of cfl and 320 watts of t12. so total is 688w. I know im wasting alot of light at the top of the tent but i planned on them being taller. Plus the lights wont fit longways. looking back i probably should have got 2ft t5's.

Thanks for the comments guys. Well i let them go about 42 days from seed so i guess they only really vegged for 4weeks maybe. they were all 8"-12" with preflowers before i flowered and are now standing at a lowly 18"-20". Was hoping for a lil more stretch during flowering but hey....it is what it is. Im thinking they may be Indica dominant but who really knows with a bagseed. Anyone got any guesses as to how much they will yield? Im hoping for 2 ounces at least between the four.

Sweet DIY setup. Your girls look great. Is that a DIY Co2 in the middle? If so, can you describe or update what you are using. Also, how about some details on soil and nutes.

First off thanks for all the comments. Yes, that is a diy CO2 generator. I use 2 cups of powdered sugar and one packet of fleischmans fast acting yeast and water about three inches below top of 2 liter. Soil is miracle grow moisture control straight out of the bag. Nutes are tiger bloom 1/2 strength every watering. Also used schultz cactus plus last two feedings. They are now at 44 days flowering and they look pretty dam good. One is yellowing quite a bit. I flushed and am hoping it cuz its near its end and not dying. I am replying from my phone so no pics yet....but hopefully i will have an update ready tonight. Thanks agian all.

100_0201.jpg100_0204.jpghere are a couple of pics from yesterday day 43 flowering. You see how one is yellowing while the other is healthy. Shoud I worry or could this be it telling me its almost ready. I thought it would take longer. Im guessing this is an 8-10 weeker seeing that im on 6 weeks and they already this developed.

Nice lookiing girls. Could be shes just sucking out all the nutes into the buds. Does it seem like they are getting fatter or just staying the same. if your getting growth or size, just keep it going only have a few weeks left anyways. loooks great

Yeah White... Gotta say again, NICE buds. Although MG is generally not preferred for MJ grow, you have shown great aptitude.

Like Bong was saying, monitor bud swelling. Although nearing the end, they don't look quite done yet. Continue to keep us updated.

Definitely post a harvest AND smoke report.
