NOOB TIP of the day...

Heres what most my tops looked like after 5 weeks flower 12 day veg.

CannaBoss said:

Well what I'm saying is...
I would rather grow a LARGE plant (6-8 ft.)in a large container because roots like to go down and out. If I had an indoor grow with say a 10ft. ceiling.
But for all practical purposes 5 or 7 gallon would do you just fine. Some strains will give you and ounce of bud per gallon of soil.

Gotcha.

I was hoping to get a minimum of a half ounce from 3 gal. pots, so I guess I could be fine.

looks highly smokeable, how much do you get per plant?

Al B Fuct recommended cutting the bottom 1/3 just befor putting them into flowering and again two weeks into flowering. He harvest 13 to 16 oz every two weeks using this method. This isn't anything new. VV

Well I did a double harvest took most the big tops at 5 weeks pulled about 96-98 oz wet then yanked 21 more wet oz 2 weeks later so about 119 oz before dry and was around 40 oz dry.I used Fox Farm nutes pretty much since Ive grown.I also include Sweet the berry kind in my grow and spray with Nitrozime .I also co2 inject.I have been curious about few other products like humboldt County, Advance Nutrients, and Canna nutes but have stuck with Fox Farm and the Sweet but gonna add either Sweet Leaf with carbo load or Sugar Daddy next round I think.

I'm thinking of doing them once a day no matter how small or large the tip.
I enjoy helping my fellow Cannabis Culturists. I've been at it quite a long time and I wish I would have had a forum like this in 1992 when I started.

thats a good idea

why do cfls suck filthy?

They do cuz they are slow growing and make fluffy buds that are too small so I hate them except to replace my house bulbs to save energy for my hps lights lol

Most excellent.

Hey Canna, I created a plant like you talk about. I was testing the waters about a month ago, and now it is 3 weeks into bloom. I did not give it much time to recover when I toped and chopped it.. Does this plant look like it is on the right track?
