hey all mr newbie here trying my hand at this.
Would love any ideas on what you all think is going on?
pic is my little girl(i hope) at the start of 4 weeks under led lights IMG_2205.jpg IMG_2205.jpg IMG_2206.jpg using fish pond water every 3 to 4 days, with seasol and a leaf spray every 7 days. growth seems to have slowed down and trunk seems very big after looking at all yours? My little girl is thc bomb from seed.Should i keep waiting for hight or is this it? Thanks all yo

welcome to RIU, bbbrunning! your girl (hopefully) looks great. she will stretch in flower--anywhere from two weeks to a bit longer and they can put on quite a lot of height during that time. congratulations on your first grow! looks like you're doing great. keep growing. :peace:

Agree with "undercovergrow" for your first grow, looking good !!!!!. The "stretch" can be any were from 1-3x's the size of plant once put in flower stage. THC from Bomb Seeds is a good strain but can really get tall, flower time is a little longer than regular, Patience is what you will need for a good/proper harvest

look a bit over watered, try to let her dry out a little more before watering, but if this pic was taken a bit after watering it can have droop.

Looks good I'm worried about the dark green color though. Unless it's the photo itself. Really dark green leaves can be a sign of too much N. then you'll get Claw which is not good. So hopefully it's just the pic. Good luck.

Thanks all!! i did just water her, and she is that green so i will buy a ph tester soon as and check all my levels.
Thinking it may be a bit high as i only use fish pond water, will post more photo in one week to show you all where am up to. really appreciate all the comments.

Do you think it would be a good idea for him to flush just in case?i have had a few plants look like that in the past! They seemed to take longer to start flowering then the normal looking plants but they never got to the point of clawing up...how do you personally deal with n toxicity?

Yo thc family
I took all your advice on board gave it a flash (that seemed to help heaps)and stepped it up to a bigger pot, which it did not like, and last of all waited two more weeks b4 flower, which worked out good for the time it need to bounce back.
so think its been nine days of 12/12 and this is what I've got, still not 100% if its a boy or girl can you help and how do you think I'm going? plant is THC BOMB

Lol, why is that rob? I've seen a few side by side grows with comparable lights, and the outcomes were always very similar. Sometimes the HID would win in weight, sometimes the LED would - end result was pretty much the same. The girls love the LED's :D

OP, im pretty sure you're still waiting on your girl to flower. I looked my hardest at the closeup you posted, but I dont see any ladyparts yet. We're in the same boat, I just flipped the light schedule to 12/12 and am waiting for the verdict... Goodluck to us both! ;)

Nah, you'll spend a grand or two on the BIG lights. For a personal grow, im doing fine with the smalls ;) only have a 100w right now and my girl likes it fine! Ill be getting an additional 350w soon to help out even more and then ill stick with those two from there. More initial investment, but *way* less of a headache for small grows.
