Random Freebies from Nirvana, one triploidy, under 230-320w of cfl

You'll have to wait for the final trimmed shots ( trimming after drying to make it dry a lil slower) but here's a shot of them hanging up

It's got a real spicy aroma, kinda akin to pumpkin spice ( perfect for the season right?)

Ive still left some of the smallest buds to ripen some more for the next week, but by next weekend I'll have some finished bud pics and maybe a few of my root ball and such.

Edit: decided to trim one that was 1/2 dry for ya

Still trimming, here's the #3 biggest all chopped up...







Hit about 1.75oz so far

So it's looking like 4.5-5oz total well beyond my expectations (2-3, 4 max) including what I've smoked already and what's sitting on there now... Total I have trimmed is 4.25-3oz still have 12-15 smaller buds sitting on the plant so I'm thinking another 1/2-3/4 by the time it's all over. The biggest colas were 1.5 oz and 30 grams heres some pics below...






These are after I'd sampled about .75oz lol. thanks to all those that had the patience to follow along

I enjoyed reading your entire thread today. It was very encouraging to see what you can do with a little know-how and drive. I started a crop back in May and had it stolen. I have since moved and am looking to start back soon. Cheers for your success!

Thanks for joining in, glad you enjoyed the read through

And that is how you get $1000 worth of weed from freebies. Great job!!!! I know I won't get near that much...I'll just be happy if I get anything at all, lol. BUT I've got some plans for the future.

I think the key things I did were keeping the lights close, having a lot of airflow over them too lets you get closer, training and watering. I wasn't too specific about amounts or method pouring I just figured out when they'd need to be watered by the look and feel of them and through some previous trial and error to see the time before they need to be watered and look for that point. And the LST gave plenty of colas for me to wrap the lights around. Hope you have success and don't be afraid to post up random questions in the newbie section. There's a lot of people who check them and help people out.

This makes me hopeful for my little girl...I can't wait to see if my CFL/LED grow turns out as well as your's did! Did you trim any of the leaves around the colas to let more light in?

I didn't do any trimming after I switched to 12/12, I just used string to tie down and reposition the colas for better light. A good portion of the fan leaves fell of on their own though.

Got another 25gs out of the bottom buds so all in all about 5.5-6 oz total, the first trimmed buds are cured nicely, the ones from a couple days later still need a few days, and the buds I trimmed last weekend are coming along nicely. Pics below:
