looking great buddy :) soon you will have some home grown buds to smoke that cost you 3x as much, but if youkeep growing the investment will soon pay itself off and you will be smoking pretty much free herbs :)
Matt Thank You :)) I don't care about the cost, I love the whole journey that growing these plants took me on ;) from my accounting skills is all ready did pay it self back it all depends on how much will I get. If I get 1.5oz from both of them there rite there pays it's self back, I would have to drop around 650 or or even more for 1.5oz and the whole box with everything cost me around 500-575 somewhere in that range. I dont know about growing in the summer it gets freaking hot as hell up in my apartment, so I might have to chill till fall when the temps drop down once again, or I will just get a A/C for my closet lol and that would def. solve the problem.

Matt how's the bike? I hope you riding that thing :) post some pictures if you can.

And I forgot to ask my question lol (stoned) :) Can I dry my harvest in the same box I was growing in? I mean with the light off and everything cleaned out just the fan and the exhaust fan (fan not pointing straight at the buds)?? Would that be fine? Or there is something wrong with drying in the same space where the plants were growing? Thx guys.

No you can use your box! I usually put new plant right in, so have a drying rack. Fun problems!!lol....rw

RW LoL exactly Fun Problems ;) I think I got a perfect space for drying my harvest, it like an old clean space rite where the old furnace was, it's dry, dark and in some way well ventilated, but I thought that I'll ask first about drying in the same box.

actually i think (dont quote me on this) that your supposed to have a relatively high humidity, around 50 percent. in the basement is perfect, around that humidity and like 68 degrees ish...one week hanging in the basement and then jarred and curing. MAKE SURE TO BURP UR JARS or you will end up with moldy buds. at least once a week for an hour...

Hey Monster buddy :) how's everything going? Don't have an access to a basement lol so I'll have to improvise somehow, I think I'll use the extra space that I got where the old furnace was, it's has good ventilation and the rh hangs around 47%-55% so I think it should work just fine, the temps are stable also around 70ish. Will see how everything will work out lol I have to leave today and going to be back on sunday morning so that's when I'm chopping down the D.R ;) All the trichomes on the d.r are huge and milky with some amber ones. So I think she's ready, and on sunday it will be 10 weeks since she popped above the ground.

So guys this is it!! LoL

Last week I cut down both of the plants, the NL could use another week but I started a new job and I was out for a couple days at a time so had to chop it down, but I ain't mad lol
The D.R got me 52g dry weight!!!!!! and the NL even more lol 57g of dry weight!!!!! So I got like 3.6oz of two plants.
Now they are curing nicely in jars. And the high is out of this world lol I mean I got so high with my wife that, that shit ain't even funny lol NL smells sooo freaking nice!! fruity!! and the D.R smells like diesel lol my wife dont like like it how it smells but she likes the high lol.

Thank You, Thank You Guys!!! Sorry for not being active lately but like I said before got a new job and working like crazy to make up the time I spend at home lol.

And once again I would like to thank you guys for a journey of my life ;) if it wasnt for you guys I prob. wouldn't grow shit lol but with all your help and time this become a journey that I'll never forget. So Matt, Monster, RW and few others Thank You! Thank You!

As for the next grow, I'm waiting for some better cash flow around here so I can get a small a/c unit so I can grow in summer time lol, if not I'll just have to wait till get a bit colder which is middle of september. Maybe for my next grow I can get a better set-up or something lol, I hope you guys be still around ;) I'm not going anywhere just got to get that small a/c if I want to grow in the summer or just wait till gets a bit colder, so if anything I'll be here every other day when I'm home.

And once again Thank You Guys for all your help and time!!
