Lemon skunk

Dresal · Jun 24, 2015

Yo i gotta lemon skunk plant its about 6 weeks into flowering it started its life outdoors til it got to desired height, beginning of flowering went smooth growth everyday until about the 5th week it slowed badly . I have cheap light bulbs and small fans in the closet with it and i know those are a factor with bud size and quality (plannin on getting legit lights after outdoor crop harvests) , i transplanted aroun that 5th into bigger pot and u noticed most of my roots are a burnt brown color . Im sure thats from being outside in high 90 degree days i understand my mistakes this time around jus wanna know what i can do next time to prevent this from happening thanx

Might struggle to finish flower with that. The buds will be poor under that light esp for a plant that tall

If you aren't gonna upgrade the light, like, now.... Then quite high. Try and get that light closer too. And get some more lights in there. Fluro energy saving bulbs. Imo you need more light.

I would lollipop to about 8 inches from the top of the plant. I know rhos might seem bold, but should make the top buds bigger in the end.

Imo you are not gonna get a good result with these lights. You need an hps.

In my last grow I moved to a 600w hps from a 400, and the difference was amazing. 400 is the minimum I would advise to get fairly good results.

A rule ofnthumb for lollipop is to do it to jusy under where the light is penetrating. If you have less powerful lights you should do it higher.

I lollypopped about six inches up n left all tops that are directly under the light , i have kool bloom ripener from general hydroponics what do u think about adding that in about a week ? Wud it help out some? And any idea how much a simple reflective shade +ballist and bulbs wud be total? And my grow space is really small wud a 250w be any better for the space?

250 would be easy to keep cool. They are super cheap. About 50 quid look on ebay
