This is where it all started, about 2 weeks into vegging, right beore I switched to 12/12 under a 600 watt HPS....1st Grow...DD 013.jpg Had 2 males after I started flowering. The plant in the back left is a clone I took from a plant outside. Gave my buddy the babies that I started later thats in the cups and the tote. This pic was took on 12/15/11.

First Day Of Flowering

Girls are both over 6" now and ready to start flowering :)
The lights will go off 2 hours earlier than usual tonight and will turn on 4 hours later than usual in the morning starting the first 12/12 cycle of 10am on and 10pm off. Pretty excited to see some buds and. Unions as to ow far they will stretch now.






Also I noticed one small spot on one of Tiana's fan leaves. I haven't used any nutes yet besides what's already in the soil. Thoughts on what could be causing this? Would like to get the problem solved before it becomes a bigger issue :)

Made a video with my new iPad of the new setup to allow for complete darkness/closure

Thanks man!!

Went to Ace and bought four more 2700k (1750 lumen) to add to my light setup. Each plant will not have 3 of these bulbs and one remaining 5000k bulb from veg. Good mix of light for flowering IMO.

Waiting to start seeing "The Stretch" begin any day now once they recover from the shock of flipping the light schedule. The smell is already starting to get stronger, can't wait until they stink up the closet!! :)

sup dawg nice lil plants u got. ill let u know u will yield way over an oz. probably 3-6 if not more if done right... ya this is a cfl grow i can assure u we all would kill 4 a 600w system. got 1 4 sale i can buy off you? cheap? and zip if u lstd to separate the branches you probably could of pulled a half zip - to an oz. im guessin ur plants will stretch to a lil under a foot if not foot exact. u should start a perpetual grow for a personal stash. ill send u a link that u should checkout. how many total watts you using

Starting to see more of these same spots on more and more of the leaves on both plants. Is this a way of them telling me it's time to start feeding my girls the nutes?

ok fuck my no posting rule, i have had a shit day and just dont care.

burns usually start on the outer tips, deficiencies usually start in the middle of the leaves. your color looks good as far a N goes, they are a nice healthy green. i really dont know what it could be but with your next watering it probally wont hurt to give them a small dose of food and see how they react, just dont forget you still have that time release nute shit in that soil, even tho u used other soil it is inevitably still there. be carefull is all. maybe next watering give them a good flush then start with a nutrient regiment the following watering? my 2¢

Might not be a bad idea, I'll post more pictures later. Everything seems to be going great otherwise, just want to stop this before it spreads more.

[FONT=Tahoma, Calibri, Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif]Heres a post from a new thread I started:

Age: 7 weeks from sprouting, Week 2 of flowering
Medium: Fox Farms Happy Frog (transplanted from Miracle Gro soil at 2 weeks. A very small amount of the MG soil was left on the roots when transplanted)
Lighting: 6x 26w 2700k CFL's & 2x 26w 5000k CFL's on 12/12
Water: Filtered through dispenser in fridge door, sat out for a couple of days
Nutes: NONE yet but I have the GH Flora series unopened

Could this be a magnesium deficiency? I'm a new grower and this is my first full grow. Itd not on all the leaves, just a couple of the lower leaves on each plant. Sorry for the crappy pics, I don't have a good camera, just my iPhone.








Below is a video taken last week to show the full scale of the plants.
