1st time grower do they look good?

[Beanpop]

Need opinions on how they look.. Week 4 of flower stage.

For a first grow you're doing good to just keep your plants alive. Next round I'd research LST and topping/mainlining and work to keep an even canopy.

Thanks for the feed back.. I did do a bit of LST and topping but since it was my first time i was scared that maybe i was doing too much to them .

Thanks for your response ..
Yeah man i struggled with the stretching there .. I know my lights aint the best but i gave it a try with it before i made it a hobby and to be able to save up for better lights. But im using hps lights 400 watts .. for nutes im using Veg-Bloom Dirty.. inside space is 2x4 and im have 3 plants in a one gallon reg pot and 3 plants in a 3 gallon smart pot. i know i can do better with everything i used but that will be for the next round i guess.

use your hand if after 30 seconds it too hot for you its too hot for them, 400 with that air cooled hood should be fairly cool

 

[kovidkough]

also you can slowly bend your tops over away from the top so you can lower your light and hit more tops, this is known as super cropping

do it slowly and don't try to break the branch. dont force it ,.slowly lower them down, it will look like a fishing pole tugging a line for a bit , next time you will have learned to manage the stretch, no big loss

I'd say don't flush unless it's a last resort and run 5x the container volume of water thru your medium. this is usually a last resort and don't recommend for soil

 

[Beanpop]

I know that was my biggest struggle

It's not too late. Next week may be.
They look good, but the shorter plants will starve of light while the taller ones get a tan.
I'd super crop asap.

hey that's not bad man better then most
