I have been 78 day in veg I believe it’s a Sativa strain idk what seed it was I’m using a 16 watt double spectrum blue and red grow light a 17 gallon pot and 0.0.1 earthworm infusion liquid nutrients I used 1 bag of miracle grow moisture control potting soil 1 bag of vegetable pro mix soil and two bags of just good ol dirt I water 2 litres usually every 3 to 4 days my grow room is 10ft High and the length and with is roughly two and a half meters wide by 3 and a half with a double opening window I have a circulating fan beginning of my grow started by seed August 3rd 2020 my main stalk doesn’t seem to be getting very thick at all but I filmed it at about 64 days and accidentally used miracle grow all purpose shake and feed had to flush my plants at 24 days I use a 18 hr on 6 hour off cycle and a heater to keep in humidity with a p ply tarp sheet over Walk in closet Entrance WHYYYY IS MY PLANT NOT PRODUCING A THICK STEM for my other node

Your light sucks, it can't give lower leaves beneficial exposure. You need to train for such small lumens

I have tried bending my stems and it resulted in a botched stem joint that healed with the bend I’m very worried about putting it into flowering rn Because I feel as if the stem is way too weak to hold flowering buds what kind of lights should I use and should I continue stress training ?? It’s almost winter it’s never been outside I want to flower it indoors but it need to get thicker I can only spend about 85 bucks on amazon for lights so I need something sturdy how many limes what colour spectrum and how much wattage ??

These are what I have found so far it’s just one plant but man I really don’t want it to die I have never ever sucsefully grown any marijuana before I just had a really good teacher and I didn’t listen but I think I’ve done pretty good definetly looking at trying fix what’s going on not give up

Put a bamboo stake in the pot to tie branches to and support the main stem but that's one small, spindly plant for 78 days in veg so you need better lighting etc if you plan to get any amount of decent bud.

If you can get some decent light I'd root some cuttings from that plant and start some new and better versions.

I mis calculated it’s been 76 days but not a big difference

Okay so what wattage what lights and how long once I have those lights should I wait to flower it there’s no option on cloning it it’s a one time plant I like it I just want to try it’s bud it barley even emits a

If you are going on the cheap, just get a hid setup. You will get good results if you have a well matched exhaust.

Silicates lots and lots of silicates

What in the shiznit is silicates any and all information is absolutely wonderful I love this site pls fill me in more

Google search house and gardens aminos. It has silicates in it and Armor Si

I don’t really want anything I gotta attach and exhaust too my entire closet is temped and specified to grow marijuana my humidity is Always between 70 and 80 and my temp is between 60 and 70 degrees that light creates a lot of heat in the closet for some reason that I have rn when I open windows My humidity stay the same as well as my temperature I have a ph meter and a water meter my ph always read 6.5 7 but after two days it back at 7.1-8 again

Its a supplement

How do I buy it cheap I

Don’t be looking into silicon or any other supplements to throw your money away on while you are still completely new to this. It won’t help you at this point.

Additives aren’t magic. They add tiny percentage points of improvement and mostly only to dialled in environments.

You have more gallons of soil than watts of light! You need more light! Or drastically lower any expectations of yield and plant vigor.

We need details of the size of your space, if you have extraction or not etc

If you are in a tiny space and this 16w light is all you will / can use. You need to learn to LST (low stress training) via tieing down most likely. And don’t expect to yield more than 20 grams at maximum.

I second that you'll need a better light. A 600 or 400 watt is pretty cheap. For 85 bucks, you may need to look on craigslist. I forgot how much the ballast costto say get it new

What do u mean by extraction and the details of my space is a walk in closet with a double outward opening window pain and roughly the wall along the closet is 3 and a half meters across and two and a half meters wide 10ft high I have an old ceramic water heater in the room under that window The window faces south it gets tons of sun in the morning around two o’clock it goes away and I turn on my lights 2pm - 8 am 18 hrs on 6 hrs off

What is the best light for a Sativa plant and how on earth is just buying a new light going to thicken my stem so I can start flowering it then I have to buy a flowering light and a new veg light ??

Window light is inadequate for any sort of growing
