wel lads, i have just flipped the plant im scroging to 12/12, what other training techniques can be done to the plant in the 1st couple of week of flower.?

also when should i start the flowering nutes.?

oh also in my post on page 691 theres pics of my other 2 plants that are starting to get root bound in their 5l pots, im growing them in the window at the moment while my grow press is in flower, i dont want these plants getting to big in the 2months they'll be in the window, how long can i leave them root bound without causing to much harm.? If possible i want to leave them in the 5l pot and transplant when the flowering plant is in the last 2weeks of flower

those pics were taking paddys day, i now how the screen the hole size of the press (1.5x1.5ft) and i need to get in there tonight when the lights are on todo some more weaving and tidy her up downstairs

ah yeah lad will keep tucking and weaving untill they stop strechting, but can we FIM them.? Or would this stress them too much in the early flower.?

how big is the screen your using lad and do you think topping caused the screen to fill up quicker.?


my screens about 2.5ft x 2ft. ye deffo made it fill quicker but still loads of screen left. was originally doing with 2 plants but 1 didnt make it

kang even this early in flower?.
Is it putting out pistols? i dont really see the point in topping while in flower as it just wont grow much, thos are the kinda things you should have sorted before flipping the switch into flower, if its a height issue i would top it before it gos too far into flower

What a difference 2 weeks makes

2 weeks ago



Today



That's coco for you, awesome growth. Also I fucked up a FIM job on the kush on the left, that's why she is so stunted and small. Starting to put out some pistils now though.

craic lads, rest of me stuff arrived sat evening but no one told me til this morning,had it delivered somewhere else.everything was in it but the the cooltube was in 2 pieces,not a happy man but il just have to get another 1, no point in returning it cause it took 2 weeks to get here and they were the worst crowd i have ever dealt with,told me they were based in Athlone which was a load of Dung,They are actually based in Belgium. So by the time i return it and get 1 one back i could be waiting til christmas,website looked kind of dodgey and i probably should have known meself.Anyway we get a little bit wiser everyday.DONT ORDER FROM FAT r..... IF YOU THINK THERE BASED IN IRELAND AND DONT WANT STUFF COMING IN FROM ABROAD.
Anyway dat,s enough giving out,moved everything into tent, still using the 2 18W cfls until i get another cooltube as all i have is a 400w hps dual spec and i dont want to use it without cooltube as im worrying about stretching,also have a 250mh coming during the week im going to use for a couple of weeks of veg before switching to the 400w HPS.
anyone know where to order a cooltube with next day delivery,
2 super skunk and 1 easyryder after popping now only 5 to go.

I never understood people ordering equipment from abroad, I've ordered 5 probably 20 litres of nutes, 3 tents. 3 ballasts and reflectors. 4 fans and carbon filters. Load of airpots and NFT systems and the delivery guys didn't arrive with the drug squad and a helicopter :P
