hey i dunno man, how can a plant "not LST" ? it looks healthy to me dude! and i see no one answered some of your previous questoins....
well right now im at 70% vermeculite and 30%sterile potting soil, my plant seems nice and healthy. i didnt use any vermeculite last grow and it was horrible!, it was like the soil was getting eroded slowly with every water lol.
and 88.5 is that what you said, thats a little hot unless your using Co2, you wanna stay under 84-85 for optimal growth IMHO.
what was the other question you asked....... lemme see....
oh yeah the t5...is it really only 13 watts??? lol i have a couple little 13 watt floros but i dont think theyre t5 (which im under the impression represents HO-high output)
anyway as long as you dont drive ur temps up much more , the more light the better! try to get that tube close, good luck and update us man, i think im the only one but....
im scribed
the only reason i havent turned the lights out is because this plant seems to be growing like a weed not trying to be funny and i just dont want to mess that up. i think i might work my way to 20/4 or something but ill see what happens as things progress. another note i have already noticed stunted groth from the nodes where i cut the fan leaves but im sure those branches will com back i have already counted 10-11 side branches so i have a funny feeling this thing is going to be pretty huge with alot of weight on ityeah yeah i cut the fan leaves off at that stage, usually i find one side that already seems to be stretching (the undergrowth that is) and bend it that way and remove the fan leaf. it seems to work for me. and i also find that i turn my vegg off for a couple hours (1-4) every night. it seems to help they like it, i let them dry out and water them right before bed, taht way the heat from the light doenst dry up the surface water and it all soaks into the roots
they do seem to stretch at night IMHO, but you'll have to see for urself, try it!@
well it helps that the only seed that germed and grew was the feminized lockstock so i know all this work im putting into it is not a wastesounds great, yeah it shocks the plant a bit pruning but it will recover, dont worry they dont stop growing at night lol, the root system and stem seems to get way stronger
when i discovered male plants i left them in the dark for 4 days and they stretched and the stems got so fuckin fat it was funny
slow death, torture...dont you love it!! fuckin males
the pics look like crap but the plant looks so messy becaus i had just gotten done with its most recent training session which took like an hour!
oh and i forgot to introduce you all to the other plant which is in pic 1 and 2 and that is some randome seed that was in my soil that sprouted instead of the indian skunk seed that was in the same cup but i decided instead of 2 pot plants i might as well grow this unknown plant that is leagle just for fun and i use it as a test patient for clean water and nuted water tests so i know im not going to kill my baby
