Im gonna go to walgreens today and see if they have that schultz 10-15-10. That seems to be the best stuff i can get without going to a hydro store, which there is not one anywhere around. My lights come on in an hour and a half at 6am so ill be checking it then to see if it has gotten any taller. If it hasnt then we prolly got a problem. It didnt really grow yesterday, but i think thats cause i gave it a really wet watering.

Day 10 of 12/12.

Its 12.5-13 inches tall today. I dunno if its cause i havent given any nutes at all yet or what, but it kinda seems like some of the leaves are getting "soft". i dunno how else to describe it. The plant is nice and dark green and looks healthy otherwise. Still no sign of sex. There is what seems to be the calyx forming tho so hopefully ill know soon. Gonna try to find some schultz 10-15-10 today or tomorrow. The burnt lookin spots is where i burnt the leaves on the lights.

im sure theres a few following it just i nick all the posting space lol. j/k

some people browse but dont post.

iv never grow with cfls but i would think that 5 would be a good number. it wouldnt hurt to add more though. more light is better but just make sure temps are good.

temps stay around 75 with the lights on and 65 to 60 with lights off. Does anyone know what yellow leaf tips mean? Some of the leaves have yellow way at the very tip of the leaf.

yeah the yellowing in pics was from the light touching it. The yelow on the tips is just at the very tips of some leaves, very small yellow tips. I just got some of the schultz 10-15-10. How much do i mix with water?

check ho wmuch it says on the bottle mate and use 1/4 the stated dose to get the plant used to it. then gradually work up until your at a happy medium. if the plant burns, lay off nutes for a watering or so and use less next time.

How tall was it when you started to flower?
And like how much are you expecting to yield per plant? :shock:

Well this is my first plant and im mjust growing it to see if i can get one to grow till harvest. Im not too worried about how much it will yield thats why i started it early to get it done faster and start growing more plants. i dont remember how tall it was when i started 12/12 around 7 or 8 inches i think. 13 inches now.
