Looks really good :) do you know what strain it is? Id have to say its better looking then my first plant that just recently hit 3 true weeks of flowering lol. I am way way under lighting them though regardless looks like you are doing an amazing job.

I actually started with four. One seemed to be afflicted with mosaic virus so I removed it. My biggest and most beautiful ended up being a male. That was a sad day. So I ended up with these two. But I'm pretty happy with my 1st attempt!

Unfortunately I don't know the strain. We used seeds we had from some good stuff a friend grew. I think I have one sativa and one indica though because one is very tall (not the one pictured) and has more slender leaves and slightly lighter color. The other is short and bushy with broader leaves and darker color. Even though it started a week later, it has bigger buds that grew much more quickly, so I think it is an indica strain and the other is sativa. I bought seeds for my next grow so that I will know what I have. This one was a spur of the moment decision to see what I could do.

I started with 5 myself this grow, which is my first and only 1 was a female. Its weird but all the males where much more dense then the 1 female. I think they look amazing and you should be proud :). Did you lst/top a lot during veg? 1 more question and i wont bug you until you reply lol, how long did you leg them veg for, and under what kind of lighting? sorry 2 questions :P

Ah, I started with bag seed myself. I have been debating on what strain to buy when I finish getting all the bells and whistles I'm missing now. Until then I have some pretty decent seeds that cam from some really good bags. No point in me waisting money on some good genetics if I am not ready for them yet lol.

I changed to 12/12 at the end of week 7 (that's 7 weeks after transplanting seedlings into larger pots which was a couple of weeks after they sprouted). I'm growing in a large closet. I started with two 6400k ballasted cfl's of 125w and I had a "sad" lamp which I had used for the seedlings (I don't know what it is but it is in the red hues). I moved that into the closet as well. When I went to 12/12 I put two 250w 2700k cfl's in the balasts and hung one 125w 2700k in the middle and hung the two 6400's on each end.

I topped twice and did some pruning. My biggest mistake was getting carried away with the pruning and removing too much, but I guess it turned out ok anyway.:hump:

Nice, i went smaller cfls and not enough of them. I didnt prune really at all and that probably is hurting mine. How did you get brave enough to cut the leaves off, i was to dang worried about hurting the plant lol. Anyway ill stop bugging ya. Good job

I also lined the closet with mylar and I have three clip fans up high and two fans on the floor. I grew in foxfarm happy frog and used foxfarm nutes about half strength recommended and 2nd transfer was into 5 gal. cloth pots.
