Erm, ello, sorry to butt in here, but somehow I feel a bit more comfortable making a twat of meself in front of a brit than a yank (no disrespect intended)! I got given some seeds via a mate of a mate ages ago. Didn't know what they were but finally got round to plantin 'em. Anyways, as I was nosing through your journal I noticed that my plant looks remarkably like your Rheingolds. Dunno how old mine is, month maybe, I lose track, wasn't an issue. There's a piccy in me gallery of it. It stands about 18 inches high now, and as the weather here is bordering on the old "scorchio", getting to be a bit of a hefty bastard to bung out in the garden during the day what with the big pot n all. (I'm only a short burd!). As you seem to be a bloke who obviously knows what he's doing - erm basically, how big is this bugger gunna get??! lol
WHOA! That's a fucking nice little stash you got there phes... Very impressive, especially seeing it all in one place in a mountain tried to give you rep but it won't let me yet lol And I've got one more thing to say. This plant here: You can tell it's been grown under some serious light. Look at the big fat bulging cola heads - that's some crazy-strong bud hiding in the ends of those heads. 2 600W HPS is the way to go To those of you with a 600W and room... add another one!
Way to grow there my friend looks like youll be gawn for some time but well worth it ill be looking for the next grow......later
Wow Phez, fantastic job! quite the harvest you have there. I really like the bowl shot, I am drooling over your Jenga tower of Bud. What's great is you have plenty to let most of that go for a long cure, no?
