I think you could easily pull an oz off of her, easy. And it looks pretty good for bagseed dude. Goodluck and keep it up. Respect and peace my brotha.

Lookin good! Better than what mine are doing with 450 watts.

subbed!

Check this post out about building a nice aero-cloner. I just built one, and my first 4 clones ever all rooted in about 12 days. They were even bottom cuts with tiny stems. No need for any rooting hormone or any upkeep as far as misting and stuff. Just drop them in and leave em alone! http://forum.grasscity.com/do-yourself/444974-lets-build-clone-machine-*step-step*.html

Thanks for that idea. Do you think it would be too late for me to try something like that while my girl is in flowering? Thanks for stopping by and rep for that idea hopefully it can work that well for me.

Don't think I'd try it that far along into flowering. I might have been on week two of mine, but I took some that shoulda been trimmed off before the switch anyway. They had very little bud sites on em.

Yea kinda what I thought I had remembered reading before. Reflecting on the wattage of light you have. Do you have your lights close to the tops and sides? All of my main colas are within 2 to 3 inches of a cfl. I only have 6 total cfls and 1 grow tube. Not a whole lot of wattage for me but I have white on every surface below the lights so that allows for reflection. No white on the floor but I do have one cfl that I rotate around the sides of the big girl. You have a thread so I can check your progress?

Yeah the link is in my sig. Some of the lights are within a few inches from the buds, but my current setup didn't really allow for much adjustments. And I let them get outta hand vertically. Soon as this whore is done budding in about 4 weeks I'll have her 4 girls I cut ready to give me a canopy.

I might have to try that out. it would be hard for me because there are no local clone supplies. thanks for the idea i will see if i can get my hands on some supplies

Not yet. Thought it may have been a little to early for that. If it isnt i sure will.

Do have a question. I am getting real concerned. Over the last few days I have noticed the bottom fan leaves start to yellow and fall off. Today I noticed one that was a little further up. Yesterday was the first shot of nutrients I have given her the whole time since seedling. maybe the lack of nutrients was the cause or maybe not pictures below can someone help please?

Hey, that's natural to the flowering man. but if you are worried about it, check out your ph levels and keep it above 6.4

Yea I know the water ph is fine it is the same water I have been using the whole time. Not sure about the soil. But if it is natural for them to do that then I am fine with it. WOW she really put on some new growth since I fed her those nutes. Makes me wish I had been doing it the whole time. Tons and tons of new flowers popping up everywhere here are a few pics.

the littlest one in the cup is a northern lights that only had 7 days of veg time lol. it was put into flowering the same time as the rest. just an experiment but how do you think it will turn out?

You think it's bad this late into flowering to cut off some of the lower fan lights? Obviously our plants don't like them since they're killing em off... Just a thought. lol. Wish I would have done more trimming before I switched to 12/12.

I am not real sure. I guess if the plants dont like them they will get rid of them. I think the best bet is to just let the natural process play out. jmo
