im postive im on HPS lol with 3 cfls off to the left

there lengthy cause theve been plucked of alot of dead leaves look at the pile there
That's not really much of a pile. I would at least in part blame the lack of nutes. But also try to keep the lights as close as you can without burning. Here's a pile from one on Hair cut day. It was a plant that I was playing with. And then two weeks later.

theres a diffrent strain in there that is super bushy its on the left in the middle. it depends on the strain too like 13 of them are all the same strain so i think there sativa but i agree there a little stretched now.

Ya the strain does make a difference. The one I think you mean does look bushier. Mine I believe are more on the indica side. Not sure what they are. They are some of the free ones I got with an order. 3 out of 5 germinated and all three were female. But if you prune them as they are veging you can help to get them bushier also.

im heading to the store now for miracle grow. Alot of them are showing sex now. So when i get home ill repot the small solo cups remaining and cut the males out. the tallest one is male which figuers cause it grew so fast and high.

I'm really sorry to butt in with nothing productive to add, but holy jesus!! Those are the most ghetto reflectors i've ever seen!!!

LOL true that 10 second fix lol ima mount the ballast somewhere else and build a real reflector when i get free time
If that is tin foil I would take it off immediately, tin foil actually doesn't reflect light well at all and reflects almost 100% heat, that is just like a heat lamp over your plants. Just looking out, I didn't get a chance to read all 6 pages of the thread so if someone already said this I'm sorry.

I had one like that on my last outdoor grow. It was not really any taller than the others but was lanky and I was sure it was going to be a male compared to what the others looked like. But it ended up to be a female.

from the looks of your set up i have a suggestion.....once you get all your males out and have an amount of females to work with......you might get better yield if you take all your females and put them in a circular pattern....you could then take the one HPS and put it on the floor in the center of the circle...take the other one and float it above like you have now....this will give you greater light towards the bottom and mid of your plant.....i have two the same way and what a difference when i changed it like i described.,.....i do however only have 4-plants so this may or may not work....


peace

i feedem the plant food and plucked off the rest of the dead leaves so where all green now. but the leaves are still drying up and curling upwards at the ends. I feedem the reccomend doseage. But i dunno if a gallon of that stuff was enough for all of them 5 are males rest are females pretty lucky IMO

It takes a little time for them to start showing improvement. 3 to 7 day's probably. I would not pull any leaves unless they were at least 50% gone. There just using up the stored energy in the leaves because they are not getting it from the roots.
