Alien what light were you using?

I Start with 2 105W and 2 60W CFL's. Veg for about 6 weeks, or when the height of the plants has enough room for the flower stretch.
Then I go to a 150 Sun System HPS. Works perfect and not alot of energy cost. My box is small but very bright with the refelctive lining.

Peace

I really need an opinion or two. These pics are from this AM. just as lights shut off for the day (end of day 52). They look ready except for the amount of new white hairs that continue to grow daily, is this an issue?

not so much....when ripe a majority of your hairs should be curled back and cloudy/amber trichomes....i think i see a "nana" on that first pic....clip that thing off b4 it opens and pollinates

When did you begin counting your flowering because it looks like it has another 4 weeks to me...

VACUUM SEALER BAGS WOULD BE A BAD IDEA BUT JARS ARE COOL

Getting small, cheap, accurate hygrometers that fit in the jars is the way to go. I keep one in every jar I'm curing.

Got a beginner question, how much do you feed your plant in the flowering process.

I like this method. Do you ever put anything in those jars with the buds? I never have just wondering if you have any experience with it. Nice buds BTW!

Im about ready to harvest, should I make sure not to water for a few days prior? Should soil be hydrated or no? Any tips to give prior to cut would be great. should i harvest when plant is in light or dark cycle? should I leave in the dark for a day or 2? does that even work?
