Growing with LEDs in a 2x4 Tent

61 Days into flower

So, we checked the trics tonight and I'm running about 60-70% cloudy 30-40% clear and a few amber here and there. So I think they are about 2-3weeks out from being where I would like them. Unfortunately I have to chop them down fri/sat as I will be moving out next Sunday and they need to be dry to where I can jar them up by then. I'm thinking of using the paper bag with strips method this time around.

Oh yeah, there are a few pics below with a white tipped bud, this is because its almost touching the glass on the housing and its getting bleached by the light from what I understand. Looks pretty cool though, even has a red hair coming out of it...

Anyhow, onto the pics:

Day 63 Flowering - tomorrow we chop.

I opened up the tent today and damn these girls are really smelling good. I wish I could just roll around in the buds and enjoy the aroma!

Tomorrow is chop day, I'd love to let the girls go longer but moving requires them to be chopped now :(

Here's a few photos I just snapped off, I love seeing how crystally they are.

Chop Report - 64days.

Well, due to our move we were only able to go 64days. I really wish I could have pushed this strain to the 11-12 weeks everyone recommends but at least I'll have some killer white widow to smoke in a few weeks.

The chop report is going to be small as I am so focused on getting shit moved out of the house right now so I didn't take my time during things to really catalog like I normally would.

Anyhow, I hope you guys enjoy the pics - I'll post preliminary weights next weekend before we leave as everything will go through a final trim and then get jarred up.

To hang the buds, I used some 3ft bamboo shoots tied to the roof of the tent. I'm using 4 of them for drying, 3 rows deep and on the front row there is a second bamboo pole on the top. The largest colas are in the back with the smallest buds at the top front.

looking pretty nice! when I grew white widow they took about 11 weeks, but they didn't look as dense as your girls when they finished. Though that could have been due to poor choice of pheno by the guy who gave me the clone. Either way, I look forward to a final weight!

I had a total of 9 plants under 2 126w LED's. They started out in veg under a 250w MH then were moved to 1 126w till about 3weeks into flower when we added the second 126w

thank you. Did you get a wet weight for us?

:tiphat:

No wet weight this time around, sorry guys... not enough time to tinker with the scale and finding something to hold the buds, most of our kitchen has been donated to a thrift store or given away.

Will there be a final yield reported once all the buds are dried? It seems to me like you had a pretty nice yield for ~250W of light, and I know I'd love to find out what you ended up with in grams per watt ;)
