THanks! But the credit goes to my friend for the growth up to this point. I just have gave him advice up to this point. We just decided to flower it out under my 1000w HPS.

Yeah the temps sucked in my grow room when it got hot a few weeks ago. I decided to only run my light at night.

She is a pretty plant and I get half!

Thanks bro! But all the credit up to this point on that plant goes to a friend. I just merely gave him advice. We decided to flower her out under my 1000w HPS. I get to keep half the harvest. She should yield pretty good, ya think?

This is great as i now have 3 dif. strains which were 3 months veg. and 30+" when they went into flower under my 1000W HPS and now in the 7th week with 6 finger fist sized nugs all around a 4 foot foot print.

How long was that veg. and how tall was it at the start of flower.?

One gal. per foot hight,so a 5 gal. would be fine in soil.

3 months in veg. and it was probably 2.5 feet tall when forced to flower.
These are just rough estimates.

A close up for you guys of the GDP:

A close up for you guys of the GDP:
We have done EXACTLY the same thing with the same amt. of lighting so it will be interesting how they compare although this is my first grow to the end.

I have the EYE Hortilux HPS in an air cooled Hydrofarm fix.,65-80F. are my reg. temps and some 87F. spikes on the very hot days with around 10-40RH,two times i had to kill the lights for2-4hrs in the mid 12/12 cycle.

Im on day 49/56 and today is the first water only flush,i think they will need a bit more time to fully mature,flush and dry a little before harvesting.

WR,NLxBB and Papaya strains all growing very similarly with very distinctive smells,and an 8 week flowering time on the packaging.

a 2 gal pot is usually 8", a 3gal is usually 10", & a 5 gal pot is usually 12" in circular size. a 5gal pot would be like a 5gal paint bucket size.
