Yeah everything is going pretty dope. I am having to redo my LST almost daily now. I really need to start 12/12 in the next week I think or I might run out of room. I haven't started any nutes yet either, but since I'm using FFOF I might just wait until I start flower to feed? Maybe I should give it a veg feeding and then wait a week and pitch it into flower? Any ideas? I am building a new box today I'll have pics up later.

Hoooray new box!!! I would wait to flower to feed, unless the plants ask for more. FFOF is a pretty rich blend, and if you're planning on flowering in the next 2 weeks, I'd say you're cool with just plain h2o for now...But hoooray new box!!!

Start flowering now if your worried about room, it is gonna shoot up for the first week or two of flower before it actually gets buds, I made the mistake of waiting too long, even though I vegged for less than a month, it grew like 5 inches taller in the first week of flower, now it stopped getting taller and its getting fatter. Although I didnt LST or top so it probably wont be as much as a problem for you.

Well I decided to throw it into flower yesterday because of a number of different reasons, I learned I'm going to be moving pretty soon so this will work out best anyway. I threw it into flower and gave the first very small dose feeding. Super Bloom and Molasses. I was rewarded today with her really fattening up I was surprised it happened over night. I did drop a really hot bulb on her because of complications of the new box, but it just burned a few fan leaves, you can see the dark burn spots.

I love the first week of flower, the tops take a new go at nitrogen intake and it's obvious the lady is getting ready to make something for ya. Beautiful dude.

Thank you sir. Day 5 Flower. Cut off the biggest fan leaf, it was making too much of a canopy and blocking all the dense undergrowth. Also redid my LST completely. Hopefully when she recovers she will be beautiful again hah.

the pre flowers will show up in between those things you circled and the branch so at least your looking in the right spot, my baby didnt show pre flowers till 12th day 12/12

some plants do take a week or two to show hairs.... i have some that show hairs during the veg cycle (24hour). i have a diesel now that is weeks away from flower and she has hairs already.
 
My baby is almost 2 weeks in flowering and it took her alittle over a week to show her first hairs, so don't worry your doing great
