Hey bro ! .. yes i am haha maybe too much i think but you know what its like especially when its ya first time Thanks so much for your take and im really happy you have noticed the slight dipp of some of the leafs I have just noticed yesturday possibly day before also and today that they have looked this way.. What gets me is though is ive lifted the pots and touched the soil and its pretty much bone dry and light feeling so would you suggest not to water still? I did notice this before and have read up on dipped leafs inward/outward etc.. on a very small scale on one tiny tip of the ridge only very faint.. like a lightish brown but very very faint can only just make it out and has only this on just the one leaf what would you suggest? and with the windows method im using how to better it or change circumstances? maybe too much light getting to the plant aswel as you saying about the water? the last few pics i posted were taken today.. you think i should remove them at night and put them in a wardrobe or room where blackness will be consealed for the duration i require and then put them back in natural light in day time hours (window sil)? or carry on and just reduce the intake of water im using. They havent been watered for two days now. Also i am noit using any feeds or ferts so cant be the reason. Todays weather has been really warm and a lot of sunlight yesturday wasnt so great but never the less it still had its quota. Your method you have used and where you are with your grow sounds awesome bro!!! and very quick but then again you are using lights afterall . my blue venom has a lovely smell also! not pungent but there is defo a smell and smells lovely!! . What strains are you growing?? Yeah the longer you leave it the better the quality !! older is better. when the buds mature and when left longer in its cycle you will produce very strong sensi ;P and that is what we all want isnt it. so i think hopefully i get to that stage i will pre long them as much as i can . Im not in no rush but would love it to bud flower and be ready sometime in these summer months.. but of course without the extra help of lights i doubt it but will see how it goes hey. you in the states?? (us) Thanks again man!Hey man, I can see youre enthusiastic to grow sweet bud heres my take ( Im also a newb on my first grow ).
Growing on a window will stretch your plants and will take a long long time to harvest, even in 12/12 from seed.
I got my main plant under a 25W CFL, now at 9 weeks old and has been flowering in 12/12 for almost 6 weeks now, and unfortunately I still got a long way to go, the bud is formed with many pistils and some crystals and smelling nice but it still has a lot more to grow and bulk up, I dont wanna chop it early and after drying it to get small buds, it would be frustrating after all the wait , know what I mean.
I also got a plant in 12/12 from seed and it flowered (developed pistils) at week 3, but its got to go i think 10 more weeks till its anywhere ready to chop, plus the main bud wont grow very big, I hope at least it will grow fat haha.
Also be careful with watering I can notice a bit of drooping in your pics which is a sign of to much water, let the soil dry out completely then water, to much water will delay the growth and can cause even more nasty issues like pests or root rot..
Any way I am curious to see how they grow and how long it takes
Happy growing buddy.
Yeah man if the setup your using seems to be working well and supplying enough light for your need thats all that matters in the endThing is though the best weed in the world is grown under natural sun light. I do not agree that you have to have lights in order for you to be able to successfully grow your plant. Cus this is my first attempt this is just a learning process for me hence I choose not to use lights on this occasion.. maybe if successful and on the next crop or season i may use lights then. My window has been very good for the plants where my room is does get a fantastic amount of light each day where its postioned in my property its very good! its actually t he best room in the whole house for warmth light and air! so really its ideal mate. i hear what your saying though. But so far so good, my plants have been doing exceptionally well! blue venom just keeps growing and growing shes getting tall! leafs are coming out nicely. Very green and healthy looking which indicates getting enough nutrients. I will post some more pics which were taken yesturday and today. Thank you both once again for your info and advice if you could keep me updated with your expoties and etc that would be great and much appreciated. with vegging could you have a look at the new pics i have tajken and just see what you think about it? like for instance when i should start feed the plant. I dont really no when and what size i should leave it to grow until doing this? thanks all !!
