yep....3-4 weeks.

T5 HO's are in my opinion the best to veg under. Relatively cheap (Home Depot has 'em cheap with bulbs and free shipping). Go with at least a 4 bulb....more is always better.

Since this is your first go-around with growing, I suggest starting out with a indica-leaning strain as generally indica is more forgiving to beginner's mistakes than sativa. You have literally 1,000's of choices of strains and if you go by the breeder's description they are all amazing. I...

I use Happy Frog.

There are views that high P foods are not necessary. RM3, a well-known grower on here goes with low P food in flower. I personally use Jacks bloom booster all through a grow (10-30-20) without a problem....but have had runs where I've gone with Jack's General purpose nutes (20-20-20) and had...

I really like T5HO's for veg....I even go with the stock bulbs (6500K) and my plants flourish under them. I've found that they work best for plants up to around 20" and that's when I flip 'em. Someone mentioned RM3's grows under T5's and I agree he has it dialed in to flower under them...

I use Jack's Classic...mostly the bloom booster all through the grow, but on occasion go with the General purpose (20-20-20) or the Citrus Feed (20-10-30). You are correct that depending on strain you have to add calmag on occasion with Jacks. Now as far as all that other stuff you're...

Ok....just did the conversion of your buckets.....13 gal buckets indicates you're going big. I don't know how big and bushy you're planning on growing your plants, but if it's trees you're shooting for, I'd start out with 10 plants and see how much room you have after they're done stretching...

Ok....I had to do the metric conversion......so around 8' x 12'. Personally I allow 2'x2' for each plant....for plants in 5 gal containers (you'll have to do your own conversion). If you grow plants that are around 3' tall that'll come out to 24 plants...if you plan on growing 'em bigger...

I run a light mover and overall I like it. I do have to warn you that getting the venting working smoothly on a moving object is a test of patience.....and liberal use of bungee cords. Personally.....I won't run the mover the entire 6' of track.....too much time where plants at the other end...

I've been growing (clone-only) Blue Dream for awhile now. While I never plucked a leaf from it to defoliate, I did pull a boat-load of clones from my current plant. I cut 'em right above the secondary branch....then vegged for a few more weeks. It has grown out to be a somewhat sturdy plant...

I have a friend that works at a grow store and he swears by it.....but then again I've seen pictures of his grow and in a word......"sucks". I'm called "Capt Jacks" at the grow store as all I use is Jacks Classic. They can laugh all they want but my big healthy plants cost me about $4 a month...

I guess the numerous fruit farms I worked for didn't get that memo. I've crawled around, climbed in, and picked fruit in 110's of apple, peach, cherry, and pear trees and absolutely none of them were trimmed to open up the middle for more light......and increased air flow?!?!?! I find it...

I'm sorry Uncle Buck, but your comparison between an annual (pot) and perennial (fruit trees) is flawed on several levels. I worked on fruit farms and we trimmed trees for several reasons, much of which was just to be able to work around and underneath them. We never pruned to allow more light...

I've grown numerous Dinafem strains and every one of them was outstanding. With that said while their White Widow is good, I feel they offer better strains such as Original Amnesia....but that's just a personal taste thing. I've also grown Female Seeds White Widow x Big Bud and while the buds...

Yes, you have what appears to be about 25-30 healthy plants that have been lollipopped. Given the size of those buckets they should turn out to be monsters. And yes, the picture of buds says you can keep plants alive and healthy. But.....it's my personal opinion that you could have had a...

I'm in a cult!?! Where am I supposed to send all my money? While I don't agree with Uncle Ben's "bull in a China shop" rebuttals I do have to say that every time I've taken his suggestions they work as advertised.....and the times I've ignored his advice (more times than I'd like to admit)...

You DO know that leaves bring more light "energy" to the buds than the buds do under direct light.

Looks like it could be nute-splash. Just keep an eye on your new growth.

What strain was it? Nice pull!
