looks about right. You should consider giving them 36 hours of darkness before flowering. I did it just recently and it worked well... I started a thread about it with some links to info if your curious:

olga and helga should chill together!

Figured its time for a little updating so here we go
5/31 - All plants were watered with tap water with a Ph 6.5
6/2 - Gave a 2nd feeding of nuts this time I brought it down to the minium
Micro - 1/8 teaspoon (.625 ml)
Grow - 1/8 teaspoon (.625 ml)
All the plants range from a height of 7 inches to 11 inches
Moved the Co2 around for better reaction and boy did it work nicely
Thankfully I took a crappy pic on my cell so it should show before i had the Co2 Boost over at the end in front of the fan then yesterday i decided to just hang the co2 where the Temp cable was hanging BIG diference
6/2

6/3


Then some quick shots of the room

looking good- i wish i could go in that tent- so many plants- i cant wait till they get bigger!!! props...

Figured since I was up in the grow room today Id take some pics and give a quick update.
6/4
Watered all the plants with tap water with a of Ph 6.5
8/5
Today i decided to try out that squirel fan that my buddy gave me in the room by just placing it on the ground. Gonna see how much the room temps drop.
So this is the way the room looks like now


SideNote at the moments all the plants range from 10-14 inches in height.
I will be transplanting the plants into one gallon pots this weekend.

Yeah I was def planning on doing the whole 36 hour of darkness. Just cause im intrested to see how it'll play out in the grow.

The feed is switched off between the following Advanced Nutrients products

Feed formula 1
B52
Sensizym
Voodoo Juice
Piranha
Tarantula

Feed Formula 2
Micro
Grow

inbetween feeds i always go with good ol tap water Ph'd to a 6.5

for the actual amounts i always list them so you can check back if youd like

oh I will stick around , yea I watched a video and they say giving it 24 to 72 hours of darkness will make them flower faster

Alrighty its that time for some updating.
Well due to the weekend heatwave I had to go ahead and start the plants into flowering but first due to doing some reading I went ahead and tried the method of 72 hours of darkness for faster flowering. I wish I had a before and after pic but lets just say the plants went ahead and grew like 4 more inches during this time. So we will see if it works out or not.
Pretty much all plants were repotted into 1 gallon pots (some are still in the quart pots cause i ran out of dirt.
Before the 72 hours of darkness I gave them a feeding of
Micro - 1/4 teaspoon
Grow - 1/4 teaspoon
During the repot process they were all given reg ol PHd 6.5 tap water
Just got a few pics cause its been a bit hectic around my parts with summer activities fully going
But next watering ill take some good pics for sure so enjoy for now

wow they look realy healthy good job and keep it up

wow, you gave them even more of the darkside than i did, but it certainly worked, they look good, tall- lil skinny... But for having as many as you do- your off to a roar!

cant wait to see them grow up

once I get plants ready to flower I'll do a test to see what time length of 100% darkness will give the best results

sounds good

science is always a good reason to get high!
