hmm i do the same Norma, I'm about 50 days at 12/12 but only 40 or so flowering, personally I thought this was the way to do it. I've heard a lot of peeps moaning about seed suppliers quoting flowering times and not realising this was only from the start of actual flowers not from the beginning of 12/12.

 

[skervy]

i guess it just depends what you consider flowering i guess i just think of it as 12/12 schedule lol. but i understand it now as you using it as from when they actually started to bud

 

[Normajean1]

yea i read a thread on this more believed it was from the first sign of pistils.

 

[skervy]

i read a post someone was asking about that and someone posted a response from a seedbank they said flower times for their estimated to be done dates are from first day of 12/12

What is the most reflective colour Silver or White?

 

[hairyrabbit]

I brought i tent and the silver cost 100bux more then white so ild say SILVER is the more reflective

 

[skervy]

its not a debate just email a seed company and ask them if flowering is from day 1 of 12/12 or from the day they show flowers they will only give you 1 answer

 

[Normajean1]

i line my stuf with mylar.

 

[Normajean1]

so today the plants havent changed much today. not to many new dead leaves. man i hope i have a good 2 more weeks with leaves on my plants. i want some bud this time. haha

 

[JN811]

looking good! thats an interesting set up you have there. How many cfls you have total? Whats the wattage? What is that you have everything under?

 

[Normajean1]

the hood is diy hood i made. a really sturdy box cut in half and foled over a bit, lined it with mylar. underneath the hood i have three power strips with about 18 small cfls then for side lighting i have some big 68 watt bulbs 42 and 32 watt bulbs. I bought a exterior closet to put everything in. Te total wattage is about 600-625 watts.

 

[Normajean1]

total bulbs is about 23

 

[Normajean1]

crazy i idnt know but its cool there beautys cant wait to break out the scope again.

i was wondering why they looked so ahead for 26 days of 12/12 lol. had to look through the thread to check and you cut out like 2 weeks of 12/12 time technically its when you switch them to 12/12 not when they show sex

All this time you got me thinking your plants were SO much bigger then mine for their age!

i was looking at your day 26 flowering pics and fuck me, it was just shameful looking at my plants compared to them!

haha, i see why now! How long has it been since you switched to 12/12?

p.s. They look good i still dont get where i can see the trich on them tho? :S

 

[Normajean1]

the blue shiny parts on my small girl on the trichs on the buds i have the flash on o it makes them bright blue. they took 5 ays to show pistils

 

[Normajean1]

The buds are still getting bigger but im almost to no green on my big girl granted oall the secondary branches still have there fan leaves but the sickness hasnt forgotten about them. Im noticing little spots on them recently. The little girl i have going the buds on the plants are much prettier than the big one.

wow i think they all look awsome. My plant is almost 5 weeks into flowering too and yours look like they out did mine so far. I still have little nuggs slowely getting bigger.
Those spots just might mean the cfl was too close? I had a cfl just about touching 1 side of my plant and som of the leaves in that area have little spots. Looks healthy for the most part tho. GL with the rest of ur grow xD
