Wow man!- hella nice job on the lst bro!+rep on this grow! Cant wait to see the buds really fil in & chunk up.good job arch
Yep..today is 3rd day of 12/12. No flowers yet and I probably wont see any for another 2 weeks maybe. LST is the shit for small pc and cabinet grows. I was afraid of height limitations but not anymore. My next run is going to be three plants of different strains.

Got to start building up my weed pantry. More jars!

Thanks Bro...Means a lot. One thing that I did notice is that she smells different, slight but different. Is that normal? She smells more dankitty..lol. Maybe its just me projecting..or I can actually smell her chemistry changing. Maybe both...I like it whatever it is!

Thx allforit. Glad to see you also in the gallery!

Since the cabinet is in the lower section of the house, mainly inhabited y me man cave style, and it is just the wife and I, odor control isnt being used at the moment. NL is listed as a neutral smell. When I open the door to the shop were the cabinet is, I smell it right away. I love it. Her smell went from piney to a little more stinky..lol. Having no experience with smells or other strains, I cant judge where this smell is on the stink o meter, but if I had more plants going or another less neutral strain, I would definitely use odor control.

I didnt notice flowering sites til about 2nd week in. I have 16 cups and half are newer clones, half are the ones in the box previous. You can tell from the time gap between the 2 waves, how much each have grown and stacked leaves, also producing a nice lil wig of white hairs on top :) It took a week or two after those first bud sites to finally grow the bud itself, a recognizeable nug, at first they look like hairy growth nodes, but as they progress u will see its makin the cylax and stacking them up! pretty neat to take pics and watch em grow, I have a few and i scrolled them them fast and u can see how much in 1 week it grows from picture to picture. Awesome stuff man, welcome to the flowering stage!

Hey Arch, my understanding is the Northern Lights have a neutral smell however, the same thing was said about the Blue Mystics and the 2 I grew had a smell not overpowering or anything like that. I controlled it with Ona and Air Wick automatic sprayer. Keep us inform if the smell gets worse. In 2 weeks your little lady will have plenty of hairs starting to form on her budsites. Where hairs are found, buds will grow:)

LOL...Thanks CHIEF. Will do. I dont think that its overpowering either. I guess if I think about it, I have bought dank weed that smelled up my place way worse than my girl. Cmon girl get hairy.

Lights came on tonight and of course I was there to greet her again..lol. No nute burn from the last watering/feeding she received, so thats awesome. Was 1/2 strength and she loved it. She is growing fast. Ill water her tomorrow with ph water only. Next feed will be in most likely 4 days when I water her. That depends on how much she water she uses. I will go to bloom nute then and possibly molasses also.

Ill let you all tell me what you think when you look at these pics. I know what I think but that, based on my experience, is worth squat..lol. I have been calling her a girl from the start (power of positive thinking) but we all know it wasnt official.

The middle pics are of her center sections. Look at all of those little tops! All of her tops have turned upwards again. She is spread out enough now that I can let her continue to grow vertically some more and still get ample light into the center. I am sure that I will have to adjust some LST here and there but I am hoping the majority of it is finished.

Enjoy the pictures as much as I did taking them.

The first one is from my past picture post. A comparison picture. The last one is for you to tell me what you think. It may still be to early to tell.

looking good arch, i like the one of the girl chillin in the chair, LoL.
Hahahaha...yeah CD, she asked if it was ok to take some different shots to round out her portfolio. So I obliged.

Thanks hmk...I saw someone else using that same set up and thought the same thing. It works like a charm. The plant wire ties was all me because I know how much I hate to tie little knots etc. They are hella easy to readjust. As for this little girl, nope she isnt being bashful anymore. Im taking her shopping for some proper attire..lol...I told her a lady doesnt expose herself like that. :grin:

agreed! Your doing a good job man.
Right right...I have good mentors. You all make it easy. I read...I do.lol. Thanks just the same. I appreciate the bits of praise.

Looking damn good arch might have to invest in some Ak seeds.
Yeah buddy...another friend of mine had great things to say about some AK-48 that he has smoked ...since you also have mentioned it, I will make it one of next strains.


Thanks folks for popping in...means a lot.

Peace,

Arch:weed:

So stoked to find this thread! This is the exact type of grow i am looking to do along with the same strain AND for the first time too ironically :hump:

Looks amazing definatly going to sub and keep my eye on how this turns out for you.

How has she been for smell up untill this point? Are you using any type of carb filter?

Keep it up!
