Trainwreck under flouros

its been in veg since 5/29 and i want to flower it now but i cant put it in my backyard. how can i flower it?

turn the lights on for 12 hrs and off for 12 hrs .. wait aprox 10-12 weeks and chop..

ints under 2 4 foot flouros in my closet is that enough light to flower it good?

well i finally started to flower it and its now about 5 feet tall!!! the on;lly thing is its fan leaves on the mainstem are turning yellow? everything else is green tho.

You're going to have a problem with the height. These plants typically double, and sometimes triple in height during the flowering period. You could potentially have a plant that's 8-10' tall. The biggest problem you're going to have is that your lighting is insufficient. Don't expect a big yield even though your plants are very tall. Floro's just don't have the juice to pack on a lot of bud weight. You'll probably end up with very light, wispy popcorn buds. In the future, don't veg your plants for 6 months! Normally, people veg for 30-50 days then begin flowering. When your plants are between 1'-2', turn the light back to 12/12. Post some pics when you get the chance so we can see what you are dealing with.

thats all koo i just want to know what elese i can use other than molasses to improve bud growth

heres some pics of a clone i took off my trainwreck a month ago small harvest for fun.

beautiful!! where did you get your trainwreck from. I am wanting to order seeds now

honestly it was supposedly trainwreck from a quater me and my friend bought last year and he sprouted the few seed that were in the bag and gave me the clone that wasnt doin as good as the rest. this is a clone off my clone. been lookin for tha real trainwreck seeds tho.

A grower can get fairly decent buds w/fluros IF they keep their plants within that lighting's capabilities, which seems to be 16-18" with 2 tube shop-lights.
Three shoplights, side -by-side, (6 tubes) made the buds below in 42 days.
The yellowing is normal and something most see shortly after switching over to 12/12.
IMO, plants shed to allow light to needed areas automatically.

dam that bush grew under flouros that shit looks frosted

Yeah, it's great! 1/2 hit to me.
I've got a bunch almost ready now, under 600W hps (1st go 4 me) and to be absolutely truthful, I'm not seeing any vast improvement in size or speed of development, and the earlier version looked quite a bit frostier. This could be due to low temps now, and my starting with the hps light much too far away.

No, I'm not saying fluros are in any way equal to hps, just that these fluro buds were bigger and frostier than my current, hps grown, buds.

I would switch it back to a veg cycle. As stated above, you let it get too big for an indoor grow, there is no way in hell you'll be able to light it with the flouro's you have. If your plant is 5 feet, it will not fit in your house by the time it reaches maturity. I would just keep on vegging, possibly even try to train it over on its side, and then put it outside come spring. By then it should be close to ten feet, and then by the end of fall it will be the size of a house. You will have enough fake trainwreck bud to last you forever!!! BTW, if you think your seeds may have been bunk, I can tell you if its trainwreck when you flower it. My old roomate grew trainwreck for a while, shit grows like one solid cola all the way up the main stalk, almost no branching at all, really a beautiful plant, smells like spicey lemons.

to late shes already buddin pretty nice. dont have any pics tho if u scroll down the page theres a ouple pics of a clone off my trainwreck i just harvested yesterday. ill put some pics up later of my big 1

Well man I can't wait to see a picture of this thing indoors!!! I hope you have a LOT of room to work with, this may be the largest indoor plant ever, and only being lit with floro tubes oh man, I hope that room has a window for some supplemental light! One thought though, what size container is it in? It may become rootbound. I think that would help your cause, it may stunt it and keep it short possibly.

its in my closet so it can grow to the celing if it has to and its in a 3 or 5 gallon pot i think. i bought a big ass pot i was gonna put it in before flowering but i figured id have to wait for it to come out of shock if i transplanted it so me being anxious just flowered it in its pot.

3 gallons should limit the growth a bit, 5 gallons less so. Maybe you'll be okay though, my old roomate kept his mothers plants on a 24hour life cycle for months, they were in 3 gallon pots and seemed to stop growing after about 5 feet. Hopefully yours stays right where its at, otherwise light penetration will become a problem.

well i have one light haning above my cola and the other one is on the side i turn the plant everyday so all the budz get equal light

Problem is that you should have light coverage of your whole plant, all the time (excluding dark time). The fact that only part of the plant is getting light at a time is really going to slow progress.
