The bagseed is very close to showing sex and from then on the plant wants to produce buds rather than growth. My preference would be to just bend the plant over. No shock to the system and if there is some veg growth in it then the sidebranches will shoot up just fine.
Topping could be done tonight if you wish. Just cut the top ball of leaves off.

The second node looks like it has a massive pistil there! I see the stuff at the base, though. Looks like your sex is about to be revealed to me! :)

The leaves at the bottom are just the sidebranches. If you bend or top then these will shoot up. They are what gives me multiple tops.
The things on the next node up aren't pitstils. I think they are meant to protect the small buds but not certain. The fact that they are bent over means the plant will be flowering very soon. Look at the 3rd or 4th node for the first signs of flower.

BTK,

Looking good there to me so far :-) I'm fascinated by these PC case grows, you could do a lot worse than to take the time to read through v12xjs' excellent thread where he grows peprtual in one of those things!

You mentioned getting a PH pen earlier? Well you dont need to spend more than a few quid on a manual narrow range kit, I use them all the time..... plus a bottle of PH down and youre away..... 2/3 tests and you will know precicely how much PH down to add to achieve the 6.2/6.4 which is very acceptable in soil. Heres a link for you, just for the product so you know what to look for (you want the 'narrow range' test):

Try to relax a little and enjoy the grow :-)

Compressed weed is pretty rare and is usually better quality than a lot of the hash available. It doesn't really have a name. The hash is old and low grade these days, it also often has stuff mixed in it that ruins the taste.
The latest scene is Far Eastern gangs renting out big houses and turning them into huge grow ops. The weed is ok but harvested early and cured quickly. They use huge amounts of power so they are rumbled pretty quick but there's usually some of this available.
I'll try to find you a link as they are pretty wild setups. They pay a minder to look after things and he usually has to sleep in the hall cos all the rooms are full.
ye its alot of vietnamese gangs
they rent a flat or house and put maybe 100 plants in each room
i heard a story on the news a while ago and a house was found and in each rom was 600 plants and there was summat like 3-4 rooms.

Ive actually been into one of these grow ops was unimagingable what i saw..

There wasnt no pots for the plants no, they covered the floor with soil and planted directly into it. The little chinese/thai dude that was there was sleeping in the bathtub as all the bedrooms were full of plants!.

Was hilarous seeing it though :joint:

Hey BTK3ill

Just my preference, but I would bend the top of the plant over and tie it down to encourage those little sidebranches. You still have maybe 3 weeks of full upward growth before the plant devotes it's energy into flowering and this will help to maximise your yield.

I'm w/ 420weedman on this one. You can employ both tactics. I wonder if you have enough growth left to do both. Yer 12/12 or 18/6?

I have been subscribed to your thread for a while now and it sad to see what has happened to your baby!! Now I'm not an expert I am only on my first grow but have done a lot of reading and researching..from what I have read plants pointing to the ground means over watering... I hope they recover good luck!
