I had alloted 50k for you and then 10k extra for first class airfare to and fro Colorado.
Goal is probably going to be this harvest honestly. 4 white widow. i'm not a good estimator but i'll put some pics up tomorrow. it will be end of 6 weeks. i was following harley09 and his white widow grow. he got a good amount i thought.
shantibaba who created the strain says to give total darkness or 8 hrs light max for the last 2 weeks to stop growing and produce resin. i am super hesitant to do both. the more light, the more weight they should put on.
anybody else have experience with white widow?

Might as well go for the larger grant anyway. 
I wouldn't go below 12/12 before harvest but you do want the light on and just fed water when you cut them, after they perk up. That's when flavor and smell is at the max.
Higher temps, co2, low humidity and UVB from the SS should be plenty to produce trichomes. WW can get frosty.

Don't do it I decreased my lights down to 9.5 hours and lost a lot of weight on my Lucy and L:iberty Haze the White Widows were harvested before the reduction in light and had denser buds by far

Welcome back!
I haven't been to Vegas in years, last time I was there I went skydiving with The Flying Elvises. Did you win or lose?

Hey Rocky,
Looking great there man. Very robust frosty looking flowers there for 7 weeks. How many plants do you have there? I'm at day 28, but lost 20 days with minor light leakage, so don't have anything close to this yet. I do however have some frosty resin showing up though, I think due to the UVB lights...
Good luck man,
ICB

Thanks ICB. There are 4 plants. I could probably get by with just 3 next time.
SME: you've got bigger stones than me. skydiving and bungee jumping are 2 things that don't appeal to me.
pretty much broke even. I went mainly for the NASCAR truck race. we live close to cripple creek CO which has gambling so that part isn't that big of a deal. stayed on Fremont which was pretty cool. alot cheaper than the strip.

Rky, how are you liking CES so far? my local shop had them for $7 for micro and $7 for bloom so I picked up a set for my next cycle since I'm almost out of FNB.
SME, I have a friend that used to sky dive in Cali but he had an accident during a high speed trick and broke his femur out of his leg. That's some dangerous stuff but I've always wanted to go skydiving. I will have to ask him about the flying Elvises.

Hey Purp,
Liking the CES. pH is as stable as with GH nutes. I did a little calculations and came up with 1 part micro to 2.4 parts bloom to get a ratio of 1-2.4-2 which is pretty close to Lucas formula of 1-2-2.
And they are cheap too which is really nice.
