    Should I cut one loose?

    Yeah. She gets Fox Farms Big Bloom and Grow Big. The day before the pic she was fed her first dose of Open Sesame. Also, I took some of her sisters away because they were crowding her and I want her getting more light this week. Shes adjusting rt now.

    3rd week from 12/12 what do you think

    That seems quite far to me...but your lights may be more powerful than mine. I bought mine used so I dont know much about them.

    T-5 Lighting Height and a Pest

    I keep mine about an inch...but I check them multiple times a day and have a fan blowing across the tops to keep the heat away from them. I do that to keep them from stretching so much and for better light penetration. T5 light doesnt penetrate as far as more high powered lights. Having the...

    3rd week from 12/12 what do you think

    On your LED's, what distance are you from the tops?? In my 2x2 tent I have a 1000w(rated) Iplantop and 4x24w T5 HO's(2ft). LED is 16" from canopy. The T5's are nearly touching the buds.

    Happening all over again.

    I have a soil that holds onto water like crazy. I have to water sparingly, or, like you it will take almost a week for my soil to dry. I dont think thats good for your plants. My plants grow better in my other soil because it dries every 2 days. I am not advocating that you use what I use, am...

    Should I cut one loose?

    Near the tops of my plant I am getting double/tripple tops where I had previously topped. She is going under 12/12 in 6 days from now. Will the buds be ok so close together like this? Or should I cut one/two tips off????

    1st seedling transplant

    I have always had good luck at transplanting. It is extremely rare for one of my transplants to show any kind of shock/wilt. My rules: Be cool. Always transplant during the cool of the day. I prefer late afternoon, early evening. Prep. Prep the destination pot with similar soil the day...

    LST this?

    This plant is growing like crazy. I've had to raise the lights 3 times since this morning. She is getting quite lanky at the top. The dark pic is from 2 days ago. The pic with the lights is today. I want to flower her soon but have other plants not yet done in my tent. Should I LST her...

    When to flower?

    Question (its related so am adding here): Is node spacing ever a consideration in determining a good time to flower? Am growing from clones and they are a bit lanky. As a result, I think its seriously affecting bud production. I have since increased the lumens in my veg area. Will that...

    Which clone would you mother?

    I have 3 healthy clones from a mother. This mother and an older sister grew pistils 1 day after going into the flowering tent. This seems to imply to me that the mother has been on the cusp of flowering so that means to me that her clones were on the border as well. 2 of the new clones I...

    Cloning Question

    Update: I cut the clone on 8/22. By 9/7, she was looking she was not going to pull through. She was almost all yellow. Her Rapid Rooter plug was still not showing any roots. On 9/14, I threw a hail mary and put her into soil. By 9/21, she started to get a little green back. At the time, I was...

    Help! Did she Herm?

    This plant is called "Grape Nanners". Why they named this strain that is beyond me. I noticed something peculiar on her today. Is this the dreaded Nanners? If not, what am I looking at? Is this normal for this plant, hence the name 'Grape Nanners'? She is growing in soil in a tent. Lights...

    Stress+Recovery time=Better yield & potency

    CHILI PEPPERS! When you buy peppers from the supermarket, and you want them HOT, pick the ones with what appear to be brown stretchmarks. Those are the hottest chilis. Those stretchmarks are caused by stress such as underwatering or too much sun.

    Cloning Question

    Last week I cut a clone from a branch that was starting to bud. I have the clone in a humidity dome under a T5 light. One other clone from a different plant that is NOT budding has already rooted and been removed from the dome. I realize that it takes longer for a budding clone to take root...

    2 week buds

    Thanks for replies... Yes, she is in soil. This plant is 'Atomic' strain. She was gifted to me from someone who kept her as a mother. I never intended her to flower... at least not now. I was hoping to shape her a bit first but she got away from me. She's a bimbo. ;) I started her on Big...
