Very nice! You have done a stellar job so far and I like your willingness to try out some new equipment even though it was costly and there have not been many confirmed highly successful grows using them. Even though you used some supplemental lighting I believe you produced some very high quality large and dense colas. Congratulations man those are only going to get stickier and larger in the next 1.5 - 2 weeks. I anxiously await your results, as you can see I am about 3 weeks behind you in a very similar grow. 1 single bagseed lady, vegged for 4.5 weeks, indoor under 175 MH and the sun when possible. Check out my log you haven't said anything!

should be fine if you didnt take em all, i have 4 ladies right now, one i took all the fans and it hermied the other i took about half and its doing fine and one i didnt touch....the one i didnt touch has the biggest buds now, fan leaves have always been contraversy with me and my friends some say the buds need the light some say leaves carry it to buds...after my little experiment i would definatly say never trim them, for about a wk now ive been pinching banana pods and ive seen one seed start to develop and the plant just keeps making more and more pods its a pain and i got about a week to go with that plant

Weekly update:
     
some of the leaves are started to yellow a little...
 
and i noticed what looks like a small splotchy leaf right at the growth tip...any ideas on what it might be?
Also...any ideas on whether its ready...or if not how much longer does it need to go?
Thanks,
agmotes165

looks pretty close. Depends on what type of high you want. Go by the trichome color.

looking nice. Have you tried a popcorn nug to see if you like the high? If you do, you can't judge taste or smell, simply the high it gives you. That's always a good secondary decision maker, making sure you enjoy the high it gives you. Good job either way, and you'll be enjoying some good smoke sometime in the near future.

I'd say give it a few more days... But like Trip said, it's all about the type of high you want... I personally smoke from morning to bed so I would harvest right now but if you like more of a body stone and tired type high then wait another week.

haha well my personal preference is something you can smoke and then continue with what you are doing at a slowed pace...or an uplifting, cerebral high, so I harvested last night...freezing the trim now to make some nice bubble...I'll get some pics up here in the next few days...
peace,

till they're dry. usually 1-2 weeks. If you bend a stem and it snaps, its dry, if it bends, its not.

You won't regret that decision. I know what you mean, you like to still be almost fully functional while you are stoned and that's exactly how I like to be, I save the couchlock for movie watching and before bed shenanigans.
Can't wait to see the outcome... Good work bro.

I'm absolutely thrilled, lovin' to see how far this grow has come! 
When I first saw this thread, your plant looked like this...
  
Now after little more than a month and a half, you have harvested some beautiful buds! 
 
  Congratulations!

Probably because he's using CFL's along with his LED. It seems that these early generation LED grow lights are too specific in the wavelengths of visible light produced. The CFL's will provide a wider bandwidth of light to the plants, supplemented by the LED's high concentration in the red (~660nm) and blue (~460nm) wavelengths.
I am in fact having a custom 300w LED array featuring 5 different 1W LED's with 60 degree viewing angles built right now. 20% of the board will feature 4500K White LED's to fill out the spectrum alongside two shades of red, one blue and one violet. I decided on this configuration after reading fairly extensively about LED's (spurred in large part by this very thread!), including some literature on photosynthesis and chlorophyll production in order to determine where the peak production occurs (with respect to light wavelength).
I'd like to know what specific LED agmotes used for his grow, as well as what type of CFL's (wattage/color temp). Forgive me if this information was already presented!

I remember him saying somewhere in the beginning that cfls were being used for supplemental lighting.
