[geromeskii]

Hey its my first grow and i have decided to start with gdp. Here are some pictures on how their vegging. Im going to start flowering this weekend, so any advice on what nutes to use and how to take care of it would be much appreciated! Going to be posting new pictures every week to keep you guys updated.

I'd keep hitting them with veg nutes for the first couple weeks while they go through their s "stretch" phase. Looking great so far, might end up being a bit much for your 400w to handle, but maybe not

yeah or should i start flowering them now? how big do you think gdp will get? its almost 12" so far.

Haha, 12 inches now, eh? If you switch to 12/12 now, they'll end up 2 or 3 feet tall probably.

Nice, now begins the waiting game...I'd give em veg nutes for the first couple weeks, or at least a little nitrogen boost for their "stretch" phase

I thought you were able to use foliar spray during the first weeks of flowering? Am i wrong?

 

[TheSuperPlant]

Your plants will stretch at least 2 feet in the first couple weeks of flowering so its good you started the process. Make sure they dont get too close to the light, it's gonna get real hot in there. As tempting as it may be, do not bother your plants during 12 hour dark period. This stresses plants out and thats the last thing you want to do. Stress can turn flowering plants into hermies. Also make sure they are spaced out enough so the branches get plenty of light Looks like you did a good job vegging them so just keep it up. And put the foliar spray down. It doesn't make a big enough difference to risk a mold outbreak in your garden.
