Hey everyone, its me, db003 back again with another update.
My plants were looking good, and it looks like my clones took root. So its time to go in to flower!
I gave my plants a little bit of water to help loosen the top layer of soil, then I gave each plant a 1/4 cup of both vegetable and flower dry nutrients to the base of the plant and mixed it with the top layer of soil by using my fingers and scratching it around till it was mixed in and gave them some more water.
These plants were in day #59 of veg today. I set my timer to 12/12 schedule to turn on at 9 p.m. and go off at 9 a.m. I did this around 10 a.m. today, so the lights will be off till 9 p.m. tonight and Tomorrow I will count it as day one of flower.

hey everyone
I kind of messed up plants were looking nice, so I decided to add a second light because the more light the better, right? I got a light burn in a single day, and to make matters worse, California has a huge heat wave. Anyway, I took out my other light and will just leave the led since it runs cooler.
It was an easy blunder but I should have know better what a rookie move. Glad I decided to look at my plants right now. Luckily, its just on a few leaves, so its not too bad. its what I get for messing around in my garden more stoned than mount Rushmore.

Hey everyone, I'm back with a much-needed update on these plants.
Luckily, other than a few burned leaves, my little mistake with the second light I had put up in my tent did not hurt the plants too much; as best as I could tell, a few tops were a little limp for a few days, but the Bud sites seem to be alright now.
Today I gave these plants their last major defoliation and a final lollipop of the bottom branches and leaves for better air flow and light penetration. After the trim, I gave them both some water.
These plants are in day 24 of flower today. I was supposed to do this on day 21 of Flower, but I forgot.
I can already tell I like the plant structure better on the nimbus snack strain. The Cromagnon man is just a little too lanky for me. With a small growing space, a tighter bud structure is better suited.
the first three pictures are before the trim the rest are after.

Hello everyone, time for an update.
These plants are doing great. I watered them and took some pictures yesterday. I also gave my friend 3 clones yesterday, so I have 4 left, two of each strain, so at least I have some clones for my next grow.
These plants were in day 41 of flower when I took the pictures yesterday.

Hey everyone, its time for an update.
It's day 48 of Flower, and these girls are in the final stretch. I would say that they have about a few weeks at most left before harvest, and that is if everything goes well, and as we all know, many times it does not.
They just got watered, and I saw a few days ago that some of the branches were starting to lean over. Luckily, I still had some plant yoyo hooks already in the tent, but I added a few more for the other plant as well.

Hey everyone, these plants are still going!
They are so close to the finish line that I keep checking for signs of bud rot or other problems of any kind other than a few dying leaves. So far, so good. I have been plucking anything that might look like it could cause problems.
These plants are in day 62 of flower, so just hitting 9 weeks.
I gave them a very light watering to keep humidity down and raised up the light by a few inches. One looks like it will finish before the other, but I will just end up chopping them both when the time comes; it should be a few days more.

Hello everyone, It's my favorite time of any grow. It's harvest time!
I went to check on my plants last night and saw some of the smaller leaf tips on the buds stating to get a bit dried up real close to the buds and decided not to push it any farther. A while back I had the same thing happen and got bud rot because of it, so I was a bit paranoid, but for a good reason.
I don't want to lose buds just for a day or two of more growth, but they were pretty much done anyway. I just wanted to let them go as long as they could without any problems.
So I turned off the lights last night, about an hour after they came on yesterday, so they got a good 12 hours of darkness before they got chopped this morning. The soil was nice and dry, so it was a perfect harvest scenario. Right now I still have my exhaust fan on medium to keep the humidity down for the first day of drying.
This morning I chopped and hung both plants whole upside down in my grow tent, and I moved my clones to the closet with a led at half power, gave them some water, and set the 18/6 to start re-vegging the clones since they were also in flower with my other plants.
These plants were on day 67 of flower, so just a bit over 9 weeks, almost 10 weeks.
