Here's some pics. Really just for the hell of it, because everyone love pictures, but maybe you can tell me what I'm doing wrong from these... I'm kinda clueless... hence the questions.

This update actually comes with no problems. Growth during flowering seems to have picked up a bit since I changed to a 8-15-10 fertilizer. Once the plant got into flowering it almost seemed to have quit growing until I changed to a higher phosphorous fertilizer(previous was high in nitrogen). It's still growing VERY slow though, which sucks because I have to start flushing her in about 7 days. The addition of a bunch more CFLs made a big difference in density of buds. I wish I could flower it longer but I am leaving town for 2 weeks for Christmas. I'd probably flower it for another month or so but no dice on that. No one I can trust to take care of it. Lamesauce I say.
Anyway, here's the picture update on how she's looking now.
     
Not too bad for a half-assed effort IMO. I really want to do HPS for flowering on my next try. I might be moving soon so that may be a possibility.

Took an early sample of the crop tonight and was quite impressed. It's a very relaxing high but not enough to knock you out. Listening to music is orgasmic right now. Rocking some 311.
Anyway, I decided to get all artsy fartsy and take some pics of the plant with the lights on. Here's some update pics:
  
I'm getting a bit of the leaves curling under. Switched to a new fertilizer and it was tough to judge the strength of it, over fertilized. Either way, I'm flushing her now. Gotta harvest next week 
I talked to some friends tonight that want cuttings though, so I may be able to grow this strain out to it's full potential someday. It's just starting to smell REALLY fruity. It's to the point I can smell it when I walk into the front door of my building. Luckily everyone in the building is cool with it and is excited (or just doesn't care) to see what the finished product is like.

The question I posted earlier about harvest/drying/curing I still need an answer to, but here are some pics of her today:

Alright, here's pics of the buds after being cured 5-6 weeks in a jar. This is about 3/4-1/2 of total harvest. They aren't as dense as they could be but do the job quite well. Pics were touched up with Lightroom.

I used this websight to learn from so it may help you as well: http://www.greenmanspage.com/guides/basics.html
site! sorry, had to do that. I read a couple of random sentences in that page:
Quote:
A nice test is to drop the seeds on a hot frying pan. If they "CRACK," they are probably good for planting purposes.
The seeds should be soaked in distilled water overnight before planting. BE SURE to plant in the ground with the pointy end UP. Plant about 1/2" deep.
Anyone ever use this frying pan trick? Does that not destroy the seed? I've read that many places. I dont know what so difficult about germing them. Put them with the pointy tip (I presume he means the rootlet) UP is not recommended. that root tip grows down then other roots start to grow in all directions from that one. pointing it up would require it to work extra hard to get aimed downward into the earth, causing some unneeded stress on the infant.
