Hey there
Im new to this site and just wanted to share with you all what i have growing in my tent. About two and a half weeks ago i acquired one afgooey clone. The place i went to is the highest ranked dispensary in my city and they always advertise about how awesome their clones are....
That being said i was very shocked to see their selection, all of them were puny and sickly, still i picked out the best looking one.IMG_20110718_161026.jpg
when i got home i transplanted it into a bigger pot and put it under the 125w cfl. I waited two days and then started lst by bending the stem.IMG_20110720_093928.jpg
as it grew i just continued tying branches down this next picture is about a week later, all the yellow in the leaves went away:-P IMG_20110728_102734.jpg
and here we have a picture of how she was looking last night

she just exploded with new growth during the second week. I also added 2 more 26w bulbs yesterday to help fill in the open spaces. This week I am not training her anymore im just gonna let the new growth grow straight up and then cut the light to 12hrs on tuesday to send her into flowering.
Thats all I have for now hope you enjoyed it.

When she goes into flowering should I put up some poultry netting up to make a scrog? I just want to make sure that I get the most out of the lights.

you will get (IMO) around 3-4 inches of good penetration from your light to create full buds, not little whispers...

Yea I have been spraying her down. I believe i have gotten rid of them all I can find are dead ones. This whole week has been kinda shitty tho 1st the mites, then I left two bulbs to close and burnt the tips of a few leafs, yesterday a couple leafs started to curl down (I think I am guilty of over watering)

then I try to bend the new apex down a little to get it even with the rest of the tips and I bent the stem to much it didn't break tho so i think it will be fine.

But other than that she is looking good i think.
