Looking great brother!!! My uncut plant reached 29 inches before stretching stopped so I hope my 250 watt HPS can maintain it since you said 2 feet is a good height for a 250 watt. I am trying autoflowers next grow so will see how that goes but growing like you did with this plant seems to be the better way to go.

Yeah man, it's just something I have picked up .. here is th eonly examples I have got pics of, but the bushy one is c99 and it flowered at 10 inches and ended up at 40. 4 x stretch, and if you look in the mirror in the shot you get an idea ,there is like 1 - 2 feet of useless height on her ,just stem with no bud on it. Again the second pic is lemon skunk, flowered at 8 inches end up at 46, nearly 6 x stretch, and once more just look, a foot or 2 of unproductive stem/ height around the base. I have noticed with a 250 , its always the top 2 feet of plant that produce well. and anything below is a waste of time/electric/feed.

Can I ask why are you going with autos next? The only advantage I can see with them is you can grow them outdoors and have them finished way earlier than October. Indoor your trading potency for the absolutely negligible benefit of not having to set a timer. Though if I ever did wan to experiment ,dna genetics 60 day lemon skunk might be decent.

I went with the Bubblelicious Autoflower because the normal genetics are Sativa and cannot be grown in my grow box because Sativas get too big. I wanted something with really sweet taste and smell so that is what I am trying. Depending on what happens I have a buddy who grows outdoors and wants to clone so might end up giving the autoflowers to him to grow for me. I also got some Pure Power Plant feminized seeds as well which are what I want to grow the most anyways for the uplifting buzz which I will have to cut more than likely being that they are sativa dominant. I also got some autoflowers to just check them out and get a little experience under my belt with them. More than likely though I will end up just sticking with normal genetics and flower early but we shall see.

I don't know kite i'll try and add you again, yanks by all means give the autos a try and report back with your thoughts.

Here's my little NL plant. She's over 2 feet now, 25 inches. The amount of bud sites is amazing on this, there is at least 20. So looks like she's gonna yield great. She responded favourably to the extra grow I gave her and I think she is happy enough.

Hey man thanks for the kind words, you are right about these genetics they are very very good indeed. Not surprising really because white label seeds are a division of sensi seeds. She has stayed super healthy and strong and bushed out with many bud sites. I say if your thinking of trying NL ,you should get white lables. And no unfortunately I cannot keep clones or mothers or this plant would be a definite mother.

Looks like she has nice strong stems too. Prob won't have to support them at all. =)
Yep the stems toughened up gradually and are now very sturdy. I would expect minimal support to be needed, unless the buds get ridiculously heavy..

im guessing if you flowered her so small, she will not take very long indeed if the company themselves say 45 days!! 6.5 weeks is a great amount of time to wait like. i must say, i have seen 8 week strains finish in 7 weeks when flowering small plants, apparently they don't need the full time if they haven't been vegging for a good 4-6 weeks before switching 12/12.

i really hope she gets fat. like a soccer ball haha

Thanks everyone! .. 3 weeks flowering today. I'm gonna just update once a week from now on ,easier to see the difference that way.. I gave her a dose of magnesium today as I have read with biobizz does not support the plants need for magnesium enough, seems legit as I always get mad deficiencies round about now , so i'm trying it this way with the magnesium ,I gave a small dose at 10 days flower and a larger 1 today and she has stayed nice and healthy.

I know what you mean miss. I just enjoy all of the stages of its life cycle so I'm never in a frame of mind where I want it to be over.. for the less patient ,having some weed to pass the weeks helps.. lol. I just ran out last night.. so i'm gonna have a nice tolerance break so I can feel the full force of this lovely plant..

She's coming along nicely. I love when the flowers first start to emerge and every day they seem to double in size!

You have a casual approach to what looks to me like a lengthy break Puff! Nice plant as usual..should produce some kind smoke.
