Hey everyone, been a while since I've grown and I'm glad to be back. I have a 30 day old Fast Bud #2 by Sweet Seeds. She's been growing very well and I'm pleased so far. Started flowering at 14 days, so she's been flowering for a little over 2 weeks now. She's had a bit of what I think it Iron deficiency, so I fed with 1 tsp Tiger Bloom which is 1/4 strength. Soil is Fox Farm Ocean forest mixed with a bit of Light Warrior. pH of water is around 6.4. She's under 1 150W HPS, 3 32W Daylight CFLs, and a couple Soft White CFLs. What do you all think? I have earlier pics if anyone wishes to see, I may upload them later.

What's crackin hank? She isn't really smelling that much. I mean, I'm used to it because I live here but for having Diesel genetics she doesn't smell all that much. That might change later though. On one hand I want her to smell, on the other I'm in an apartment so I really don't lol. The HPS came with a vented hood with a plexiglass insert. That plus a fan means I keep it around 5-6 inches above the top. I don't really measure, just put my hand between her and the light. If it's too hot for you, then it's too hot for her.

Edit- I went in there to take a pic of my setup, ended up taking more lol.

lol nice! I was asking because im not positive where i should be hanging my hps, its a 150, the hoods not vented but it does have a glass cover, and a fan mounted under it, it keeps it pretty cool, right now its about 15" up, guessing thats to far away for the 150

I like to keep mine really close so the leaves glow orange :twisted:. Seriously though, here's a chart. https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/231669-optimum-plant-height-400w-hps-2.html#post2957944
what lighting sched do you have it on
19/5. Kinda random but, eh. I grew 2 plants with 20/4, haven't noticed a difference. This one droops mad hard around 7 hours before lights out though.
when we going to get some bud porn out of that baby u think!?
Haha hopefully soon my man. Trust me, I'm finding it hard to be patient. You'll just have to stay tuned. I will say this though. I've seen an explosive increase in pistils just from today. I think the flowering is about to go really fast now :mrgreen:
 
Helppp someone what do i do if my one week plant is leaning all the way down? It does not seem to be dying just leaning down, i added support what else should i do?

You should 1, learn how to post a new thread. 2, tie her up and get a fan blowing on her to strengthen the stem. What is your watering schedule like? Are you watering when she needs it or watering when you decide she should be watered? Get a picture up if you can. Plants leaning aren't necessarily bad, some people, like me, tend to tie their plants down anyway.

Word, when you get a thread post it on here and i'll take a look. Thanks man. I'll probably post an update tonight. Not all that much new. She's 30 days old today, 16 days flowering. I've been really busy lately with summer class and working in my lab and I've kind of been neglecting her. I mean I check on her ll the time, I just haven't water all week, but I did today. She seems fine, just some lower leaves dying from N def. I fed today before work with 1 tsp of Tiger Bloom.

Yeah man, me too. I think they're starting to. I'll post some pics later. I watered with 4 tbsp Big Bloom today. She's in full bloom now so she's needing more nutrients.
