Just began flowering stage! First grow!

This is my first grow. How do my ladies look? Any input, ideas or comments about my setup or plants is much appreciated. I am running x2 2ft t5 grow lights and x5 23w soft white cfl's. From what I have read the soft white is better for the flowering stage. I was running the x2 t5's and x5 23w daylight cfl's during my veg period. How long should I flower them for? I know I am in a pretty tight space for x3 plants and my light setup is not the best but for my first grow its done me pretty well and im still learning. I will probably move one of my plants to another location soon. Let me know what you guys think!

Looking good. Don;t worry about how long yet. ONce they start budding up and hairs start turning colors, read up and decide.

What color spectrum are your T5s? You may want to switch them out if they are bright daylight (6500K).

Just be ready for those girls to grow tall. They look pretty tall already and will start shooting up quickly.

Hey slicknick they look good bro. Wen u gonna flower? Wen u do switch out half the 6500k with2700k
And put the fixtures as close as u can to minimize stretching.also trim up some of that lower stuff thats not getting any light that will help get u bigger nugs up top.those 2gal pots? Just curious. Post up more pics of the setup bro

Ya I need to switch out my t5 lights with lights that have a better spectrum for flowering. I currently have the higher spectrum ones in right now.

Just change half every other bulb eirher way youll b good u can flower like that just make sure your on 12/12 schedule. I just started flower too check it out first 1000 watt grow u can probably get sum gud tips thru it peace

they lookin really good. as long as all leaves are green and stem/branches are green (not maroon or red) then ur good yo,

They look nice man. Once the white hairs show up, my plants usually take 50-60 days but of course it varies. I figure about 8 weeks after the hairs come out. You can start smoking around week 6 1/2 (clip and smoke) but a lot of people would go bonkers over that idea.

Wats up SN, ur girls look great to me very healthy lookin. You know wat strain they are? Wat type of setup do u have? Wats the total amout of watts u have? Always good to have some info to give u the best advice. Depending on strain determins how long they will flower, but later down the road(about 8-10weeks) u will be able to tell.

Is that not the most fuked up avitar on this site? Holy shit man!
I think im goin bonkers after seein that. WTF

......LMFAO!!

oh my god I just noticed the warning above ur avitar stranger stranger.im hella weak.

Hey mrvevadat wats it mean to have different color branches cus mine are purple ? Curious to kno ive heard different opinions on it

I began flowering about 3-4 days ago. White hairs have begun showing before I started flowering. One of my plants I am worried may be a male but I am 100% sure the other 2 are female. They are showing clear signs of female but the third one just isnt showing any signs. I took out the one I am not sure about and plus it gives me some more room for my 2 girls to grow. I also have a northern lights autoflower from niravana I have started and she is about 3.5-4 in tall.

Hey man just thot id chime in. the two that showed pistils before flower are females that reached maturity the one that hasnt shown may be a female. Wen ur in week 2 flower all your plants should show sex.so I hope u didnt chop it. N the auto flower will just flower wenever it feels like it hence auto flower. But keep us posted and add somemore pics.
Peace

There indicas? or trimmed back sativas? If there in, i say it'll take about 8-10 before the chop, get a scope and peep the tricombs, look at them until most of them are milky then chop em down. too much red/amber, or clear, is a no go. the sativas take a bit longer, i think most of those run about 10-14 weeks. unfortunately, all my plants are sativas, so its extra effing long for my first grow...
When you harvest, dont just take the nugs, youll have tons of leaves and trimmings minus stems youll be able to make shake or keef with. If you go with the keef direction, youll have to buy something to sift all that shit, they make commercial buckets with layers of netting that basically does the work for you.

Oh yeah, dont chop unless you see BALLS. my plants took almost 3 weeks to show sex.

Yo snake u gotta thread ??
