First Grow Bagseed Harvest - 250w HPS

My first grow has finally came to an end. My roommate and I harvested 4 plants. They had a total wet weight of nearly 1 pound, which will probably come to about a QP of dried cured buds.

These pictures are of my plant grown from not very good bagseed (looked terrible, probably badly/commercially grown. My plant was vegged under CFLs and flowered under a 250w HPS. You can check out my grow journal to see itss progress from day 1. I named it "BS #2".


My Grow Journal (no harvest pics of "Lump")
My Roomates Grow Journal - Harvest pics (2 lemony Northern Lights x Skunk plants)


This plant became pollinated by a hermi plant that was in with it and therefore has a decent number of seeds in some of the nugs. The nugs are very dense, incredibly sticky and smell of sweet molasses (I fed the last watering).

Pics >>>>>>>

Check out "BS #2"


Main Cola

Main Cola Trimmed - 25 grams wet

Bud Shot

Bud Shot 2

Bud Shot 3

Trimmed Nug

The Whole Plant Trimmed Up

Final wet weight was 115 grams, any guesses for dry weight?

Re: First Grow Bagseed Harvest - 250w HPS

did you trim the fan leaves off? that's a weird looking plant!

edit: nevermind, i took a look at your grow thread and it seems like you did.

how'd you get it to grow like that? i thought there was supposed to be a main stem where other branches shoot off from or something.

Re: First Grow Bagseed Harvest - 250w HPS

Congratulations man! I remember being where you were less then 6 months ago. The best advice I can give is take your dry/cure process very seriously and elongate it. My dry/cure process lasted almost a month, and I thank myself every day for doing it properly

If you don't already have one, you should combine your nice homegrown with a vaporizer. It is a great way to conserve bud. Between the dank-awesomeness of homegrown and a vaporizer that shit will last you forever.

Good luck to you

I'm pretty sure that's how all marijuana plants are supposed to look. I just grew it normally.

Thanks, I can't wait to try it. I squeezed some of it today and this stuff is like a sticky resiny sponge Those are seeds spots but I think some of the nugs are seed free.

Good call, I am planning on revegging this plant along with two of its seeds which were pollinated by a G13 Labs Northern Lights x Skunk feminized hermi.

Thanks, I've come a long way since I first decided I wanted to try my hand at growing. Thanks to Grasscity and Overgrow for all the information I needed. As for drying, we are air curing our 4 plants at 70-75 degrees 30%-40% humidity until the stems crack. Then we will be jarring them up and waiting for that smooth toke. I definitely will recommend flavoring the buds with extracts or molasses, they smell delicious.

Definitely will be vaping a good amount of these buds. The vapor brothers vaporizer is amazing, a great buy at $150.

I would definitely recommend bagseed for your first grow. You don't want to lose any of those expensive seeds seedlings. We managed 2 females 1 hermi 1 male out of our 5 NLxSkunk seeds and 5 power skunk. Good luck growing its a fun,addictive, and rewarding hobby

Re: First Grow Bagseed Harvest - 250w HPS

a few of them? i see them all over the place. those will burst and release pollen in just a few days. im not saying that the seeds from it came from that plant to say, but if you had more than one plant in there that are different ages i can see that plant being a major problem. as far as cloning goes that is, it was more in response to the people who were talking about cloning to carry on the genetics.

good looking plant though, the bud does look to be dank as fuck

Don't feel bad, this same exact thing happened to me, just as you described it. It didn't effect the final product at all
