Houston...We got Red hairs. I repeat..We got red hairs.....Incoming! Starting to flush at day 59. This is late but there are 4 beast plants in the 12 gallon tote. The nutes will be consumed in a few days and I will cut down when @GroErr @Yodaweed @PSUAGRO @mc130p decide when I am ready to harvest. I will rely on your advice so please just let me know. I'll try to update photos every couple days. Thank You Guys!!!

Starting to learn not to chop too early. These are 8 week strains but what do you think? We are at day 62 in flower.

Long way to go yet, all those white pistils have to mature (brown, recede) and buds need to fill in. Looks like at least another 2-3 weeks to me. They look great but still need to mature.

There are 2 strains...The two Aurora OG's on the left are bulkier then the 2 Cheesey Smurf's on the right. Damn Sativa dominants! I must get new strains soon because a 8-9 week strain makes my veg garden go bonkerz. Should I flip the veg room now so i won't get overcrowding like this run? I'm happy but I'm looking for a nice even scrogged canopy.

In other words, if I'm blooming 9 weeks then my veg is going for 9 weeks. I'll post a pic of the veg-room soon. Shit is getting crazy. Tempted to buy this tent which has a window so I can peek in. What do you think about this tent w/ window?

Was commenting on the one pic in natural light, the others are difficult to tell under the LED light but they look like they have a ways to go as well.

As far as flipping, are you planning to flower in that veg tent or getting another tent for flowering? You don't want to over crowd, invites mold and doesn't provide any more yield, maybe less if you can't get enough light to them.

Look alright, I look at tents as temporary holding grounds until I build a permanent room, or side projects, so I don't spend a lot of money on them. I have one small side project tent I bought on e-bay for close to 2 years and no issues.

I have a separate veg room...I was gonna just upgrade to that tent because The plants got too tall and too wide for this tent. At the same time, the tent is actually working out 2x better then I could have expected. Maximumum colas. My guess is my yield will be double this round using the same tent I did last round. Granted, last round I only had 2 plants scrogged. If you recall I had 2 of the 4 plants go hermie so I had to pull them which left me with 2 total plants. Last round was 3 oz off the cheesey smurf and 1 oz off the aurora. My guess is that I will be getting 3 oz off the two Aurora OG'S and 5 oz. off the two Cheesey Smurf's.

Oh I see, just give them some breathing room. You know you'll always fill available space right? lol
That would be a very nice stash :)
