Welcome to week 15 and the end of the road for my lovely little OG Kush plant.
Here's her final state before I put her out of her misery:

Trimmed:

Added to the first cut of 335 gms gives a total of 490 gms trimmed (not dried)

First batch dried 6 days in paper bags:

Farewell sweet girl, you taught me many valuable lessons (mostly patience)

Very nice, and the bids look great! Do you dry trim them? They look nice and dense, I looked but didn't see what lights you are running?
When I dry with more leaf on, they seem to just fluff out from the bud, not nice and tight like yours.

hey @RivetGrrl , I trimmed wet haven't touched them since they came out of the brown paper bags.

I'm using a cheapo blurple light from amazon, brand Maxsisun (I think that's how it's spelled, something weird like that) I have to say that for $70 it was a bargain, I have no complaints and for growing a single plant at a time I'd highly recommend it. The reason I bought it was because it has a built in timer and the red and blue can be adjusted by percentage.

Damn mighty fine job you did trimming, and it looks like that light was perfect for your grow, great price too. Those buds just look super nice

Thank you @Paradiso for the MC lesson! Learned a bunch of great information.

Well done

Hi all. Final tally is 127 gr, dried. Not too shabby for a noob who refuses to follow the rules.
Things I'm pretty sure about:
1) MegaCrop definitely can adequately feed plants, no one should have any doubt about that.
2) Topping is a worthwhile endeavor (LST too, of course)
3) Plants need adequate water, adequate light and sufficient nutes. Besides that just leave them the fuck alone. The less you fuck with your plants the happier they will be.

In a couple of months, once the snow is gone and warm temps become standard I'll try some more experiments growing outside. I have 2 seeds each of 2 strains of photo plants should provide a good test bed for testing out different ideas about training and nutes.

Thanks all for coming along for the ride and all of your advice and encouragement. See ya soon.

Great job @Paradiso ! I'll be coming back to your grow journal as I work my way through my own MC grow. Fingers crossed that I can even come close to half of that!

Thanks, man. I hope you find it useful. There are so many helpful folks on this site you can get help on anything.
