Firstly is it just me or has riu gone pretty quiet recently? used to be loads of people on here chatting :confused:

anyway.

just a few pics of the plants there getting bigger, one seem's to be stretching but it's not as though its reaching for light because its no more than 6 inch away from the bulb? the other is staying short and bushy. im guessing its just what this one has been crossed with maybe.

going to get a 125w actual red spectrum cfl next week and hang that in there with them for additional light.

edit: forgot pics :clap:

second pic you can see a few pistils, there is loads on them just m phone cam is crap, really need to sort the digi cam out, missus has it again!

They're getting pretty damn big! If space isn't a concern for you then the stretching won't really matter (heck you may even get more light to those lower branches). Mine are now on day 18 and still not showing any sign of sex (I'm taking this as good news). I'll be happy if mine grow as big as yours. Keep up the good work!

I went over them with a fine tooth comb (metaphorically speaking). Good news and bad news I'm afraid. The Good news is I have 2 females, the bad... well my 2 favourite plants are both male! 1 Is still unidentified. I'll leave it a couple of days to make sure about the males (I'll not so willingly give up on them yet) but bah, what rotten luck!

glad to here you got some females though mate,

yeh the biggest/strongest looking plants normally turn out to be male. from what iv seen and experienced anyway.

sup fyfe, plants are looking awesome.

wish mine would have stretched a bit now when they were seedlings, because your buds are getting alot more light then mine because mine are shorter and bushy. think i might have to snip a couple leaves in the next couple of days.

nooooooo! :-P

dont cut any leaves mate, your plant will collect light from those leaves and pass it on to the buds. if anything cutting leaves stunts growth.

iv not seen anyone recommend cutting fan leaves, they need them to photosynthesis :weed:

Nice to see everyones interested in my update :lol:

things are getting way to quiet in here. :roll:

I gave them there first feed last night, just waiting on checking them later to find them crispy burnt :-| hopefully not though.

they were fed 2.5ml of canna flora A and 2.5 of flora B? mixed in 2lt's of water. i don't know what the NPK is i forget now. i got it of my uncle.

i fed them from the bottom as advised by him, i got a long drip tray and fed them about 1.5ltr and let them absorb it through the drainage holes.

i dont know the benifits of feeding from the bottom? maybe to train the root to search for water? me no no :lol:

going to have to move them down abit tonight, there getting close to the light now.

got my first wiff of them this morning to, the sky man is well going to notice :lol:
