Hey Jimmy thanks for joining in; I've got an ongoing grow log on my signature, you can check it out. She's from seed, feminised, about 40 days old, so I don't have to worry about sausage fests coming up. I think 2 months sounds about right, I'll wait it out. =)

Thanks, Sand4x105, but I'm looking to have 6 clones so I can ScroG; having one clone that grows faster won't help with the height issues methinks. Thanks for your suggestion though, I wish I had known a year ago when I ditched a perfectly healthy top. =P

Don't worry, that's way too much effort to knock a starting grow, and way too many operations to knock that way too. Can you imagine how many of us are doing what you're doing now? Having said that though, don't do anything stupid, keep it secret, and you should be fine. No tell, no smell, no...

Great suggestions from everyone, general consensus is not yet then. I'll let her grow out for a bit before I take any cuttings. (+rep everyone) And special thanks to SxIstew and tekdc911 for going the distance with your suggestions! The pictures were really helpful. You're right, I've already...

Hey guys, I need 6 clones off my mother plants, is she old/big enough? Any suggestions appreciated, I don't mind waiting a little longer until she's ready. Thanks for the help!

Day 42 (4/9/2013) Sorry for the late updates. Problems have been popping - water cuts, fan broke down, but Gaia is a freaking tankress. She still looks green as ever. One issue I noticed is that when temps get a bit hot, there's condensation on the surface of the lower leaves that are directly...

Day 32 (25/8/13) *written at a later date Scheduled reservoir change, switched to GH Hydroponics nutes. Added quarter strength, as per everyone's recommendation, ppm 142. pH 5.6 - 5.8. Interesting note: Unlike previously used nutrients, GH nutes actually reduced pH and buffered solution to...

Thanks Toter! I just want her to be a bonsai mom though, looking to get some clones from her and then do a Scrog growth. For now I just want to control her height so she's easily manageable.

Hey guys, am growing this lady to be a mom, I still have like about a 1.5 feet of vertical space - any suggestions on when and where to top or FIM her? All input appreciated, thanks.

Thanks for the reply guys, just checked on her today and there seems to have been some growth spurt. Already have GH nutes actually, was saving those for flower but I suppose I might as well use them now! Thanks for all, +rep.

Day 30 (23/8/2013) I had initial concerns that Gaia's growth was stunted, as she is still quite small at day 26. While checking on her today however, I found that she had significantly increased in height. Prior to that, another forumer suggested that she was developing roots before her growth...

Thanks for the tip tomb, yeah I just pH adjust the one res-change a week, then I let it drift - it usually comes to about pH 6 by the time I change it again. It's going well so far, I was worried she was becoming too small but I think she was developing roots first before growing taller. Just...

Day 26 - 2 CFL's, about 3 inches above her (Nirvana's Bubblelicious), system is DWC and using a mixture of hydro starter and tomato plant feed. A more complete grow journal can be found on my signature. She looks healthy, but a little small maybe? Appreciate your two cents, thanks. TGM

Day 26 (19/8/2013) Reservoir change today, readings of old reservoir read pH 6, with 90ppm. Increased nutes of new reservoir, 175ppm, pH 5. She's looking healthy!

Thanks for the encouragement tomb, will sub yours too!

No problem. We're having the same babies - it's Nirvana's Bubblelicious too. =) I'm undergeared though, will be running flowering in a 4 x 2 x 5 tent with only a 400W HPS, although I think with my space, equipment, and local temps I can't run a 600W yet. I'm planinng to scrog, so hopefully...

Day 20 (13/8/2013) Countermeasures taken yesterday was successful - today's reading showed that pH remained 6.0, while ppm was 79. She's taking in nutes and water at the same pace. Will continue to observe her for the week, with a scheduled reservoir change on 19/8/2013.

Looks great man, rookie grower here too, I know how it feels to do the research and finally get to growing it. =) Good luck! I'm keeping a log of mine too, can't stop staring at the leaves!

To be honest, they're looking a little underfed tomb. How are you checking the pH? Paper strips, liquid indicators or meter? I'm using GH liquid indicators and it's difficult to get an accurate reading - currently trying to balance it out with overcompensating the initial pH levels a little bit...

Some damn fine marijuana-work there Xrangex! Just want to ask, how are you controlling your temps? Are your HPS air-cooled? Or just using the old carbon filter and inline fan combo? Can't wait to see the harvest bro, good luck!
