oh hell yeah, LoL. this is my best grow by far. i just hope i harvest, dry, and cure it right when its ready. it smells so sweet. i love it. im happy with the way i grew it, with the lst and all, but a little bummed about space. i was thinking at first i could get 4 plants, not. so i think i'll try an autoflowering and do 2, maybe 3 since they grow so short and fast.

I built my dwc res to hold four but doubt i can do all four either. I've heard good things about lowryder diesel ryder seeds. I ordered some for a later grow. they are auto's and supposedly quite nice to grow in confined spaces. As long as you have odor control in place.

yeah, a nice short auto for the next grow is the way im gonna go for sure. unless i just say the hell with it and do bag seed again and hope for another female, LoL.
$50 for 3 seeds is crazy, but i would to try something different.
i picked up this nice 2 speed massey fan at the thrift store for $5, cant beat that.
heres some pics, new bean is 48 days today and the bud sites are getting bigger and filling in nicely, looking great.

i took out 1 of the 6" 12v fans and put the massey in blowing up through the plant, i looked and its a 3 speed, not 2, pretty cool, waiting to check temps to make sure its ok. they have been running 82/84 during the day with the ac on in the house.

well the box didnt like the fan change so i put the 6" dc fan back in. the temps went up to 88 with just the big fan blowing upwards. i put the little fan back in blowing from the back side on the lights and it went back down to 84. maybe i dont need that big fan in there???
new bean is 49 days old today and at 34 days of flowering. buds are looking good and it really smells great. im hoping they'll be ready in about 4 more weeks.
leaving to go racing up at citrus tomorrow morning for the weekend, so next update will be on sunday.

What is your overall height at? I'm kind of looking to your grow to see where mine will be. Youre two weeks ahead of me.

hey johnny, the total is about 20-22 inches high, but that is all tied down. if it was standing up, it would be about 3 1/2 feet tall and thats in an 8" tall pot. my box is only 4 feet high. today is day 53 from when the seed broke the ground and 38 days of 12/12 flowering.

Youre making Ghetto grow look great man. Did you do bagseed on your previous grows?

thanks johnny, yes, its always been bag seeds, ive never bought seeds before. this is by far my best grow yet tho, i think this one will turn out great, i hope, LoL. today is day 54 and things are still looking good. the plant drinks about a gallon of juice every 5 days now and i am still watering it 2 times a day.

LoL, yeah she is. ive read all about watering, every other day, every 3rd day, 1 day nutes, next time plain water. i have used the same mix since day 15 when i started flowering. rain water, gh, jacks classic, bat guano and worm castings. iwater for just a little before the lights go out and about 2 hours after they come on, everyday. it works for me and im not changing it, LoL. the way i see it, if you can grow it with the roots always in water/nutes, whats the difference? mine must like it, i mean look at it, 54 days old, 39 days of flowering, and the thing is going wild. if that other branch wouldnt have broke off, it might not have fit in there, LolL, still sucks tho. as i said, this is the best grow yet for me, so im not changing a thing. sorry to rant, but im stoned as hell, LMAO. i ran my fingers across one of the leaves by a bigger bud and man, it was so sticky and smelt soooo good. i just cant wait!!!!Thirsty Gal
