Short and stocky for a sativa. That looks a lot more then 4 ounces too.
Did you post the weight when you got it? I'm willing to look for the post if you did.

october sometime....

unless you reduce the light manually by putting it into complete darkness after 12 hours of light... like a cupboard or summit.

Couple pictures of my first Cannabis plant about a month n a half old, which i believe is northern lights (looks very indica). ive used nothing but tomato food (with seeweed extract) and water, on a window sill in london.
Any comments welcome.

on the windowsill maybe in about august/september, if you can put it in a box or cupboard for 12 hours dark a night it'll start flowering in about a week to two after that.

Don you say that plant was "root bound". ive got some pretty big plants coming on in flower some lookin real nice but a couple seem to have come to a halt. Could this be the cause the pots arent the biggest ? i was going to repot but got told not todo so in flower :/ i might get some pics up later as its my first grow and im close to the chop. would mind a bit of guidance.

when you say come to a halt do you mean vertical growth wise or the buds aren't fattening up at the same speeds? even beans out of the same pack will have varying speeds of flowering in some cases.
fuck not repotting in flower, that's bollocks. i've done it plenty of times and each time they've loved it. wait till the soil is dry, grab the main stem at the base and lift it out of the pot if its dry it should all stick together, if the roots look white n healthy and also not just coiled round and round the bottom of the soil then it shouldn't be potbound. if they look orangey then they've probably had too much water or have some other issue. not much you can do about it at this stage though. pot up and see if they bounce back.

What do you think i should do ?
leave it a bit longer
Remove main colas and allow lower to fatten
Crop it
?

they all getting the same feed? could be nute lockout.

whats been happening, the leaves look a bit fucked up. they could be just stunted. you may aswell take them off when they're crispy like that man. anyway they look like theyve got a way to go yet so dont be too disheartened

Fairenough i thought it would need a little longer but wasnt sure didnt wanna miss its harvest. :) Yeah few crispy leafs on there my cabs normally open and landlord came round so had to close it but he decided to stay for a chat , which ment my girls were in there gettin cooked , but this was weeks ago now they seem to have recovered ok.

Was just being lazy leaving them on there but i guess removal of stuff is always increasing the amount of light.

The two top colas are to heavy for the plant there even starting to pull the bamboo about. Fairly pleased with it but im looking forward to the others ive got alot more :) seem to get better plant by plant lol.

How many women does it take to change a light bulb? 8.

1)Tall enough to reach it
2)To comment on how pretty it looks
3)To give it some make up tips
4)To drop it in the sink
5)To clean it
6)To find another bulb
7)To discover it doesn't fit
8)To realise its not a bulb its a tennis ball

Whoo, i have a set of scales, to counter this euphoric moment, i also have a letter saying that the celing beneath is still leaking so ah'm fucked. Gotta get a plumper and such around tomorrow after work to look over the flat and work out what the fuck's up. Thank god it's nowt todo with my bedroom and they won't need access, but the flat still stinks to high heaven apparently :D

Time to get drunk and forget all about it :D
