when should i switch into flowering stage from veg. my plant is on day 15 today, its less than a foot tall. but i know plants can double to quadrouble in size and i was thinking of pushing into flowering around day 18 to day 25. i dont have much space to grow in so i cant wait to it gets to tall to start flowring cause then it will be to big for my box.

When do you think i should push into flower and when i do do inwater daily or every other day? cause i know it will probably take alot more water.

For that size grow box I would start right now. That plant is going to easily double or triple. Those leaves look a little. Try using a pH meter to make sure that you stay exactly at 800 ppm for the concentration of the nutrient solution. Feeding is going to depend from one setup to another. Your gonna probably have to deed every 3 to 4! If the containers feel to light they need water. Also never let the container of a plant dry up during the flowering and fructification stages!!!

so i wouldnt wait for the container to dry up and water till it leaks out bottom. should i water every two days?

and im usisng techna flora recipe for success and i was told to use half veg and half flower nutes the first two weeks of 12/12 life cycle... would you agree? is anyone fimiliar with this nute kit?

Feeding the plants every two days usually happens when the ambient conditions are met. You need an ambient air temperature of 24 celcius and a relative humidity level of 40%. Another factor is the amount of light that is given to the plants. To feed them every two days your going to need at least a 600 watts hps bulb with a ratio of 66 watts per square feet!

Honestly you should just by the flowering kit and go with that. What are the vegetation and flowering NPK percentages? I started a thread about nutrient solutions!

yeah my humidity stays around 40 to 50% and the temp is around 77-80 F cant get it any lower though during the 12 hours with lighs off if should be able to go as low as 70-75.

since im just using cfl's i was going to get some big 6500k cfl bulbs ill look for 66 watts.

as for nutes cant really say what the NPK level is but i got some people i could ask that are fimiliar with technaflora.

But thanks man youve been a great help!
