  8. You're doing great .She looks a little sativsh to me. I don't think it a pure indica. The leaf looks a little too finger like and she's kinda lanky. These are Sativia but unsexed at two half weeks with led
     
  9. Sorry my pic didn't make it. its on my thread today

    bottom growth was cut off for clones and most the fan leaves are twice as fat as my fingers and ive smoked plenty of the strain def 90+% indica

    its not a headie strain is a regs strain that grows like a monster we've had 10 foot tall outdoor plants of it the stalks are like wood rock hard

    it was pretty much planted and left alone for 2 months

    couldnt super crop her now if i wanted =\

    shes a little over 3 feet subtracting bucket height
     
  11. shes gotten a little bit taller and all her flowers are starting to open right open and pistols everywhere

    slight skunky smell to her already

    5-6 branches have pushed there ways to be level-ish with each other so it looks like 5-6 tops with big flowers coming from each one =D(she was topped then the 2 tops were cut off about 6 inches down on each one)

    cant find my camera cord atm

    will pic update asap


    lol went from a tote grow to a closet grow

  17. Does the Chrome and aluminum tape work good? If I used the same tape for the whole thing instead of half would it do the same?
