To the OP. By the time all those plants grow more and thins out with only the main offshoot stems as the source of the flowering spears, me thinks you're gonna need 2 more tents that size.

As far as this topic goes, I left my Pineapple Express plant in the dark for 36 hours straight to induce flowering. My tent's temp was 73F with humidity around 60% during. I watered just before starting the 36 hours of darkness. The plant started flowering almost immediately afterwards with no...

Do any follow that schedule as outlined by many charts? Feed-water-water-feed? I'm at the flowering stage now. Then another nute schedule says to add nutes twice a week. Confused. I let my 5 gal. pot container dry out, and am tempted to Feed-Water-Feed rather than Feed-Water-Water-Feed...

Sorry for my light cycle post and watering. Back on subject. "If there's magic on this earth, it is contained in water." Anonymous

If such an expert....then, take it easy. You're uptight about growing weed in a tent. What type questions are appropriate? No light after midnight or your plants become hermaphrodites. I was polling growers, not elite snobs.

You're overstating your point about keeping plants in the dark for 12 hours (after flowering has started). You exclaim "no more no less, note even by one second" (paraphrased). Gimme a break. My flowers are female and are well on their way, and they get like 10-60 minutes off their sleep cycle...

Just why so? Outdoor growers water just before the sun comes up. Why would opening a tent an hour before (for 5 minutes) for watering be so terrible. Do you really think a flowering plant is going to freak out because it got 11 hours and 30 minutes uninterrupted darkness instead of 12 hours...

How soon before the light cycle comes on do you people water? An hour? Two hours? Half an hour, 15 minutes? I've been watering about an hour before start of the next light cycle. I was thinking about watering 2 hours before the light comes on to give plenty of time for the roots to drink up...

You have the right light and all. I might have kept it in the veg state longer, before turning it to flower. Your colas seems to be reaching just a wee bit, maybe not.

Modest burple Chinese led is what I have. $139. Attempting one pIant to grow big. I just augmented it with two CFL bulbs, 2700K 43 watts each. Flower stage. I'm awaiting super frosty trichromes, may not see any.

I'm trimming ok. That's why I may be buying a taller tent. I'm growing a one stem massive pot plant that may take awhile before harvesting and may take a taller tent, and not be spectacular. I'm not seeing multi colored trichrome frosty sugared leaves yet. I can't see how ppl attain that...

I had to do some cutting of new growths. The bud areas want to grow bigger but also want to propagate new flower shoots off their own. Maybe because they're getting a surge of nitrogen since the transplant. I may have to buy a taller tent than 63" high

I transplanted a healthy but slow growing one plant grow sativa plant from a 3 gallon bucket to 5 gallon bucket. I did this right before flowering. The roots are now digging into fresh rich nitrogen soil. The stems are now going crazy. The main flowering stalks can't decide whether they want...

From what I've read, as long as you get an 8-10 degree jump in temp from 65F to, say, 72F when lights are on, you're fine. If your max temp during lights on reaches only 69F, that might be of concern for optimum growth.

I decided to hang a couple of CFL bulbs next to my LED panel for flowering. I bought two 150 watt equivalent cfl's that draw 42 watts and is 2700 Kelvin with 2900 Lumens. Those seem to be what are recommended. I now see the store where I bought them from (Lowes) also stocks 300 watt equivalent...

OP posted in 2010, making this topic 7+ years old.

Pineapple Express from clone. Took forever to get substantial growth before I put it into flower stage a week ago. 60+ days vegging...one week flowering. I hope they're not airy buds. It looks as if I may need to buy a slightly bigger tent (by the time they rise up). BestVA 1000w 187w...

I just pick up what I read on pot forums. I took it for granted. I am naive. I assumed that was the norm. And, of course, I'm talking about a healthy plant. Not one that was over fed needing emergency urgent care. Tube down its throat. If I might ask you who replied here, I am contemplating a...
