Skunk Indica - 6 weeks flowering

Hello everyone, this is my second time growing. I accidentally killed my first plant.

I am growing some skunk Indica I got from the Vancouver Seed Bank.

I am growing it in a 6" pot using Shultz potting soil and Advanced Nutrients.

My grow box is a speaker box I found, and I am using 2 computer case fans for cooling and using 3 26watt 2700k bulbs and 1 26watt 6500k in a T formation to help get light to the lower levels.

I LST'd the plant, I have 7 colas, and one of the colas topped itself when it got too close to the light lol.

Here are some pictures, sorry about the quality, I will upload better pictures as soon as I can use my GF's camera.

It looks great man.

Was there an actual name of the seeds you got from VSB?

Hows the smell? Skunky at all yet?

No, the name of it is Skunk Indica but I wish I knew more about it.

It smells a little bit, mainly when I brush up against it or move it, but it doesn't smell like skunk at all.

The plant is soo sticky, the website says indoor flowering usually takes 6 - 8 weeks so its almost harvest time.

Yea, my plants seemed to change smell during the flowering. More of a sweet smell in the first few weeks then to a sweet skunky smell.

Yea they do get smelly if you move em or touch em.

Here is a picture of the trichomes, this is the best shot I can get.

I'm thinking about starting the flushing this week and cropping next week, Is that a good idea or should I let it flower and flush it next week?

Personally, I think you should let it flower and then flush it the next week. Seems like you need to let things go for a bit before you start playing with it too much.

Good luck - so far, so good.

Ok thanks. I'm going to let it flower for another week or so.
I also picked up a uvb cfl hoping it will increase the thc. I picked it up from the petstore for $20.
